Re: smd_gallery: super-flexible gallery generator
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}

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

Re: smd_gallery: super-flexible gallery generator
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.

Re: smd_gallery: super-flexible gallery generator
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.

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

Re: smd_gallery: super-flexible gallery generator
Or without float: #navgaleria div {display: inline}

But you can:
{navprev: <img src=“http://www.xxxx.xx/image_left.png” />}
{navnext: <img src=“http://www.xxxx.xx/image_right.png” />}

Re: smd_gallery: super-flexible gallery generator
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…. :(
