Re: bos_image_display and bos_image_category for simple image gallery
Uhm… this sounds strange, I’ll think about it. Maybe a different php version has to do with this strange behavior? I didn’t set a default for the limit. Do you think I should ?
I’ll try to explore this. Anyway, thank for your debugging.
Bye!

Re: bos_image_display and bos_image_category for simple image gallery
If it helps, the site where it works without the limit attribute has php 4.3.11, and the other one 4.3.10.
I also checked if both plugin versions were the same, and they’re both 0.33.
If you would give the limit attribute a default value, a problem like mine would not occur, but then how often does this happen?

Re: bos_image_display and bos_image_category for simple image gallery
You’re probably right, but i’d just like to figure out the reason this happened.
When limit is left empty, in the function I set it to 9999999999. Could this be too high for the limit and make the bug happen with some php/mysql version? It is unnecessary, so in future version I’d put it to 9999, that is far enough for a single photo gallery… (I hope so! ;-)) I wonder if this could be the problem.
If anyone knows is welcome! :)

Re: bos_image_display and bos_image_category for simple image gallery
Hi Zanza,
just upgraded from 0.31 to 0.33 without any problems.
There is still a little problem in the code which prevents a page displaying a picture from validating against W3C XHTML Standard.
In lines 192 and 234 of the PHP-Code where you are setting up <code>$impath</code> you have an ampersand-sign as part of the URL.
Perhaps you should use <code>&</code> instead. With that change applied, the output validates just fine.
Thanks again for this plugin.
Regards,
Helge

You’re so right, Helge! Thanks for pointing the problem, I missed it.
I’ve now upgraded to 0.34. Also changed the default limit for galleries to 9999.
Bye!

Re: bos_image_display and bos_image_category for simple image gallery
Could anybody elaborate on this plugin a bit? Possibly post his/her code? I like to write a more comprehensive tutorial on all the various gallery plugins we have for txp but my time is limited to test them all :) Thanks in advance :)

Re: bos_image_display and bos_image_category for simple image gallery
There are some basic usage examples in the help. That apart, what do you need most? I think it would be nice to explain how to put up a series of album, not just a gallery, that is pretty simple.
If you have a suggestion, I will try to write a tutorial with an example, but it need to be focused. So let’s focus! If any of you have examples, I will try to replicate them and to explain how to do it.
Some things it could be possible with this plugin:
- a comic gallery, split in episode
- a series of album divided by nested categories
- help me think of…
:)

Re: bos_image_display and bos_image_category for simple image gallery
@Zanza, Els
Els was so kind to send me the URL of one of the galleries she set up with the plugin:
http://quintas.portugalore.com/avo/
We could take this gallery as sample and explain how it was set up. I think Els´s gallery covers most one can achive with this plugin, correct?

Re: bos_image_display and bos_image_category for simple image gallery
Yes, it’s correct, but you could add local navigation: next and forward, and numbered navigation. But basically the multiple galleries Els set up is the reason the plugin is born. Unfortunately my client site is not running yet, so I can’t point to it.

Re: bos_image_display and bos_image_category for simple image gallery
Here is a short email exchange i had with Els about here gallery:
Would you mind elaborating a bit on the way you set up the photosection on
http://quintas.portugalore.com/avo/
Code on the page:
<txp:if_category name=“avo1-buildings,avo1-land”>
<txp:output_form form=“gallery-avo” />
</txp:if_category>
Code in the form:
<div class=“gallery”>
<txp:bos_image_display title=“0” />
<txp:bos_image_index break=“li” wraptag=“ul” limit=“12” sortby=“name” sortdir=“asc” />
</div>

Re: bos_image_display and bos_image_category for simple image gallery
For Germans: I did write a Tut on the Plugin.
Great Plugin Zanza! Thanks for that.
