SMF Gallery

[GazG]

Hi all,
New to SMF and the Gallery, so be gentle.
Got a slight problem and hope you can point me in the right direction.
Gallery was running fine. Here goes.....
In SMF, when people upload their own avatars, it wasn't automatically resizing them - apparantly because the PHP GD library wasn't installed, ok so I enabled the GD library, but this has had the knock-on effect now that the gallery doesnot display the thumbnail images in the categories (in IE) and doesn't display any placeholder at all in Firefox - if you click the placeholder in IE the pictures display fine. Any ideas what the problem might - I was using 1.7.6 have upgraded to 1.8 and still the same problem. Using SMF 1.1.3 too.
Any help appreciated - I understand this may not be the correct place to ask but it affects the Gallery directly so I thought I'd start here.
Cheers

PS I just tried adding a new picture to the gallery and that's fine - link problems?

I have this mod and when I click on gallery management link in the admin panel, I get "Not implemented ". Yet the mod is installed and there are pictures in the sections.

How can I fix this?

Also, in TP, the mode in the theme is also enabled.

When you look at the 'Gallery Admin' in the TinyPortal control panel you are not seeing a control for this SMF Gallery mod.
It is instead a feature of TinyPortal that has not yet been implemented but will be at some future date and it has no current relationship to the SMF Gallery mod at all.
You should just set it to Off

ok, but how do i manage the gallery ?

For the SMF Gallery your controls are under the Admin>Configuration>Gallery Configuration menu.

Any ideas what the problem might - I was using 1.7.6 have upgraded to 1.8 and still the same problem.

I've got a similar issue. The gallery WAS resizing the photos and making thumbnails, but I needed to have GD running on my server for another program, and it wasn't installed. I've added php_GD successfully, but now the thumbnails and images no longer show up in the Gallery.

I went ahead and upgraded to Gallery 1.8 as well, but that obviously didn't fix anything. I'm assuming that Gallery was using Image Magik since I didn't have GD installed, but now that GD is running ... well, something is a mess.

New images being added to the Gallery seem to be fine, but not the old images or thumbnails. Does this mean the older images will have to be reinstalled?

Any suggestions?

Hello chaps. I tried to install this for 1.1.3 but got an error in /Themes/default/index.template.php

Install the mod then manually add the menu link to the template file.

Hello,
why if i uninstall the mod, i have into the "Permissions" the options of SMF Gallery? How can i remove them?

Really thank you,
F.

It would appear that you haven't completely uninstalled the mod...reverse the process of a manual installation and remove all edits the mod makes and your problem should disappear.

Argh!!

I'm completly not able to do that. There's a tutorial to learn it?

Thanks,
F.

You will have to look at the official documentation regarding manual installation and reverse the process therein described:

When I install Gallery I get this message:

1.

Execute Modification

./Themes/default/languages/Modifications.english.php

Test failed

when I followed the links above, I found that there was no "<operation>" tag in this php file

Do I need to grab another copy of this php file?

Cheers

[TrueSatan]

The <operation> tag is part of the .xml file that tells the package manager how to work...it is not, and should not be, part of the php file being edited.

The Modifications.english.php is particularly easy to edit and if you use the mod parser (last of the links above) it will show you exactly what to do.

[AON21]

Thanks for the reply TrueSatan

Just so no one else makes the same mistake, you might be able to clear some things up for me - this came from the links above:

1. Open the .xml file with any text editor and search for <file name="...">. You will find the filename in the "name" attribute.

So far so good - Found that to be <file name="$languagedir/Modifications.english.php">

I then went to the next step:

2. Open up the specified file and look for a set of <operation>...</operation> tags. This indicates a single modification step within the specified file.

But there is no "<operation>" tag in the file above

Then to follow your advice, I went to this link as you suggested:
http://modparser.dev.dansoftaustralia.net/ [nofollow]
which is deader than a doorknob 

What did I miss?

[TrueSatan]

The part of the .xml file in question that refers to the file you need to edit is this:

...prior to it. Make sure that you preserve the whitespace in the above code.

The above edit is made to your Modifications.english.php file.

hi, even if i set the permission for guests to NOT be able to post a picture, i have 1 guest who successfully posted one photo, and i accidentally approved it, and the problem is, i can't delete it.

im logged in as admin, and in the gallery, when i click delete, the warning comes out "Warning this will delete your picture and you can not restore it." and when i continue, by clicking on the delete button, it says " No picture selected" I would like to delete it directly from my file folder, but it may show up as a blank space in my gallery.
