smd_gallery: super-flexible gallery generator

Is it possible to user replacement for my new columns in txp_image table? I’ve added column code_left and use some value in it – how do i show this value inside smd_gallery form, like {code_left}?

Exactly. Just make sure you tell the plugin about the new column via the columns attribute.

sort="random" doesn’t work on ‘root’ server … !?

OK … maybe it has been asked before but I’ve a problem with the browser cache and the plug-in … I think!

And it’s a bit weird. When this site was on a subdirectory on the same server everything was working fine. Yesterday the site went ‘online’ and now the images at the top doesn’t sort at random any more. The plug-in (!) still renders the same image. Only when I disable the cache I get a new image … only for that moment.

The code:

<txp:smd_gallery category="banner" form="banner" limit="1" sort="random" />

The form:

<img src="{url}" alt="{alt}" title="{alt}" width="{width}" height="{height}" />

Any help is appreciated.

Hi I’m havin’ a problem creating an additional slideshow with different dimensions.
In the slideshow css file I’ve copied all the slideshow classes to slideshowthree with new dimensions. But the slideshow just shows the alternate content image. So i must be missing something but i can’t see anything in the css file that i’m missing.

<txp:smd_gallery controller = "{duration: 2000, transition: Fx.Transitions.Elastic.easeOut}"
  category="3colslideshow" form="3colslide"
  combo="imglist:{id}{ext}"
  collate="quote:{imglist}:{alt}" />

3colslide form:

<div class="slideshowthree" id="slideshowthree">
	<img src="<txp:site_url />images/{id#1}.jpg" alt="{alt#1}"/>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
	var myShow = new Slideshow('slideshow', [{imglist}], {hu: '/images/', resize: false, duration: 2000 });
</script>

Brilliant! I’ve done simple galleries/slideshows with this before.
Today, I’m working on a bit of a complicated slideshow and whaddya know – smd_gallery has everything I need.

Thanks Stef!

trying to trouble shoot a slideshow that’s not working using smd. Rechecked everything not sure what the problem is:

Txp gernerates this debbugging code:

Tag error:  <txp:smd_gallery controller = "{duration: 2000, transition: Fx.Transitions.Elastic.easeOut}"category="homeslideshow" form="homeslideshow"
combo="imglist:{id}{ext}"collate="quote:{imglist}:{alt}" /> ->  Textpattern Notice: Unknown tag attribute: controller  on line 699

the js in the html renders like this:

<script type="text/javascript"> var myShow = new Slideshow('slideshow', ["5.jpg","4.jpg"], {hu: '/images/', resize: false, duration: 2000 });
</script>

All my links are in the head. Not sure how to trouble shoot this. Any ideas?

For some reason your smd_gallery tag is thinking that your javascript definition for the controller is a tag attribute. Probably something to do with quotes in the tag. Can you post your actual smd_gallery tag please and any associated forms?

kvnmcwebn · 2010-06-25 14:42:54

thanks steph,

here’s my form:

<div class="slideshow" id="slideshow">
	<img src="<txp:site_url />images/{id#1}.jpg" alt="{alt#1}"/>
</div><script type="text/javascript">
var myShow = new Slideshow('slideshow', [{imglist}], {hu: '/images/', resize: false, duration: 2000 });
</script>

and my article:

<txp:smd_gallery
 controller = "{duration: 2000, transition: Fx.Transitions.Elastic.easeOut}"
  category="homeslideshow" form="homeslideshow"
  combo="imglist:{id}{ext}"
  collate="quote:{imglist}:{alt}" />

Hmmm, what’s that supposed to be? controller isn’t an smd_gallery attribute, which is why it’s complaining.

You’re not using the word controller in your form so it’s not like it’s even a botched custom combo definition. What’s it supposed to control? And where did you get the example code from? I’m not very familiar with slideshow; maybe somebody else here is?

kvnmcwebn · 2010-06-25 15:25:13

What’s it supposed to control?

good question… I don’t know exactly….it’s just mootools slideshow attributes that controls the length of the fades and stuff. I got it off the slideshow mailing list/forum actually I’ve used the exact same article on another site and it’s working with or without the controller attributes.
Also I’ve now taken it out of the site in question and the error message does go away thanks.
The slideshow is still not working though and i am at a loss as to why. Must be something silly on my end. Thanks again steph.

Ok I gave up on the slideshow for and am using slimbox for my galleries now.

For a basic thumbnail-lightbox gallery is working well with this form:

<a  rel="lightbox-galleryname" href="<txp:site_url />images/{id}{ext}" alt="{alt}" title="A picture of {title}" height="{height}" width="{width}">   
 <txp:thumbnail id="{id}" />
</a>

But I would like to output only one thumbnail per gallery:

To do this I need to render this html – only the first anchor has an image link – the rest are empty( i know):

<a  rel="lightbox-galleryname" href="../images/66.jpg" alt="" title="A
 picture something" height="326" width="540"><img src=".../images/
66t.jpg" alt="" title="some title" width="100" height="90" /></a>
<a  rel="lightbox-galleryname" href="../images/67.jpg" alt="" title="A
picture something" height="326" width="540"><!-- blank, no foto here--
></a>
<a  rel="lightbox-galleryname" href="../images/68.jpg" alt="" title="A
 picture something" height="326" width="540"><!-- blank, no foto here--></a>

Can I do this using collation mode and the (name} attribute?

Does thumblimit="1" work? You’ll probably need to replace <txp:thumbnail id="{id}" /> in your form with {object} so the plugin can put the thumbnail in only when it needs (i.e. on the first link).
