smd_gallery: super-flexible gallery generator

masa · 2009-10-20 23:58:25

Hi,

I’m at my wits end trying to create a simple category-based gallery pulled from custom field #1 as I’ve done before. This is what I use:

<txp:smd_gallery category="?custom1">
<a href="{url}" title="{title}"><img src="{thumburl}" alt="{alt}" /></a>
</txp:smd_gallery>

…and it doesn’t ouput anything.

I copied this straight from another installation where it’s working fine. If I replace ?custom1 with an actual category name the gallery appears.

I checked over and over again, that the category is assigned to the images and correctly typed into cf#1, but no go.

Any ideas?

(Txp 4.0.8, smd_gallery 0.51, smd_lib 0.36)

2 masa: maybe you should try {custom_1} (underscore)

If the_ghost’s suggestion doesn’t work, try the actual name of your custom field, e.g. category="?gallery_images".

Thanks, Victor & Stef,

{custom_1} didn’t work, but category="?gallery_images" did – hooray!

I also tracked down the reason: on the local install, where I could use custom1, I had never bothered to rename the field, so its name is actually custom1.

This is probably the dumbest question I ever asked, but I just cant find the way to do it!
I am using this as my gallery_nav form:

{navprev}{navthis} of {totalpages}{navnext}

and is displaying something like this:
«
1
of 3
»

but want something like this:
« 1 of 3 »

you can see what I mean here:

Can you wrap the nav in a wrapper div and then use a clear:both CSS rule on the wrapper to position the whole lot under the thumbs? That might give you some more space to play with so it’ll stop wrapping.

Thanks Bloke!
but that is just not working :(
thats why I feel stupid asking this question, I just tried eveything.

you can see now using clear:both

Have you tried giving your “empty” div a float:left ? Seems like it might be a float issue.

uli · 2009-11-04 02:45:52

Or without float: #navgaleria div {display: inline}

Thanks guys!
Didnt get it to work, but just realiced I cant substitude >> or << in the navigation with images, so this type of navigation is useless for me… :(

Thanks again

But you can:

{navprev: <img src=“http://www.xxxx.xx/image_left.png” />}

{navnext: <img src=“http://www.xxxx.xx/image_right.png” />}

mlarino · 2009-11-04 10:02:29

Yes, you are right!

but, why cant that be used with {navprevpageurl} ?
That way the image will disapear if there is no next or previous pages…. :(
