do i need to add something to onchange="" cause it solved the thumblimit issue, but now only shows images from last added category?

No, but you will need to remove the -{category} from your rel="fancy-{category}" because that’s telling the lightbox script that you only want to cycle through images with the same rel value.

i would like to sort my gallery by category date – last added category would be first. did this:

<txp:smd_gallery category="!header-image, !site-design, !content, !toetajad" sort="category desc, date desc" thumblimit="1" thumbsize="70" onchange="category_title" onchangewraptag="h3" grouptag="div" groupclass="album">
{grouptagstart}
<a class="fancybox" rel="fancy-{category}" href="{url}" title="{caption}">
{object}
</a>
{onchange:category_title}
{grouptagend}
</txp:smd_gallery>

but it sorts by category name :( category name starting with letter ‘a’ is last and category name starting with ‘s’ is first. take a look

hmm…..

There’s no such field, so you’re out of luck. Categories don’t have the concept of insertion order: they’re merely arranged into a hierarchical tree (internally stored as a modified preorder binary tree if you’re interested).

Hence sort="category desc" is giving you reverse category by name, and then date desc orders each category by reverse date.

pitty…

one more question: i use category based gallery (code above), is it possible to create category based navigation? display 10 categories per page for example

Gallex · 2012-02-15 11:34:54

is it?

Can’t you use Txp for this? You can use /category/image/cat-name URLs now and use <txp:if_category>’s type attribute to detect an image cat list. Once you have detected that, you can render a gallery tag per cat (the container of <txp:category_list type="image"> maybe?). Txp should be able to page cat image lists using standard offset/limit and newer/older paging tags. As a last resort, smd_gallery’s paging options might do it.

I can’t recall trying it, but if you fiddle about along those lines something workable should pop out.

Hi all,

i’m new to TXP and I was (trying to) play with smd_gallery to build a slideshow for the frontpage, but it won’t work.
Here the tags:

<txp:if_section name="">
<txp:smd_gallery category="frontpage-slideshow" combo="imglist:{id}{ext}" collate="quote:{imglist}:{alt}" form="frontpage_slideshow" />
<script type="text/javascript">
var frontpage_slideshow = new Slideshow("frontpage-slideshow", { hu: "<txp:site_url />images/", images: [{imglist}], caption: [{alt}], type: "fade" });
</script>
</txp:if_section>

and the form:

<div id="frontpage-slideshow" class="slideshow">
 <img src="<txp:site_url />images/{id#1}{ext#1}"
     alt="{alt#1}" width="760" height="425" />
</div>

basically It’s the same as the slideshow example available on plugin’s help page.
I encounter two issues:

the smd_gallery tag expands to the first image only
the Javascript goes wrong and Firebug output is “invalid object initializer ‘images: [{imglist}]’”

where am i wrong?!?

Thanks,

It’s been a while since I last used smd_gallery but from what I see you’re using replacement tags outside the gallery tag. Try placing the script tag inside the form (try above or below the HTML, like I said: it’s been a while).

Thanks Uli, now the Javascript error is gone… i messed up something else, but it seems to be going on the right way :-)
