I am trying to get the menu option along the top to show up in the PS-Black theme.  The gallery is working but I cannot figure out how to get the Gallery option to show up properly along the top menu bar using the same fonts and such that the PS-Black theme uses.  Has anyone set this up?  Any help would be great!  Thanks....

Here is an index.template.php with the menu item inserted. This assumes you haven't done any other edits to your index.template.php file.
Since I'm not a coder (And you should do it regardless) backup any files you replace.

 >:(  I am afraid I am not finding the answer in searching the forums, although it may be already answered....

I had installed the SMG 1.1.9 and got it configured...really like it.  Had it running for about two days while playing with it...created albums, got pics and stuff uploaded, etc.

Today, all the thumbs and pics were gone. (just red x's).  Not sure why, but was playing with other mods....

I tried removing and reapplying the mod, but now everytime I try to add anything (albums, pics, etc) I get the message that chmod777 is required for mgal_data and albums dirs.

I try to reset the chmod, but can only get 776...probably a server limitation...but it worked before...?!?

any help would be greatly appreciated!

BTW when re applying the mod, the /themes/default/index.template.php fails 'inspection'....
is this why it is not installing correctly?

@redsc> That's not here either. Are you talking about SMF Media Gallery or SMF Gallery?

@scvoyager> It's already in SMG2, and has been for several months now. The first beta will be out this week.

@radioninty> Is mod_security enabled? Disable it.

@donk> Is PHP Safe mode enabled? Disable it or wait for SMG2.

thanks NAO.

I am not sure where to enale/disable php safe mode.  I have my smf and smg on a hosted server with Network Solutions, so I fear this may not be something wtihin my control...

Thank you for the reply, and will watch for SMG2~!

BTW, the gallery Lite works fine..if it is relevent.

SMF 2.0RC1-1

K... I WAS using SMF gallery PRo...

Installed Media Gallery 1.5.6
Ran mgconverter_sgp.php

The conversion 'appeared' to have gone to plan, and went to the new gallery, and all the albums, views, comments, etc are THERE... just ...

THERE ARE NO IMAGES!!!

Now... I have NOT uninstalled the galleryPRO yet... kinda scared to until I know that this one is functioning properly.

Am I jumping the gun?
I didn't get it wrong, I just found 10,000 ways it doesn't work...

Alrighty-then....

Not ONLY do I not have ANY images showing up in Media Gallery (though I still have all the images showing in SMF Gallery PRO)...

I now cannot upload any images in my new installed 1.5.6 media gallery.
I get an error : ...
QuoteCannot find proper destination on the server, please contact your administrator

What's going on?

@donk> I don't think SGL has any complex directory structure -- ie it doesn't create sub-sub-folders so it's safe from safe mode, if I may say. It was either "get rid of the folder structure" or "implement ftp upload" like SMF does. I chose the latter.

@sel> You're not helping, by disabling SMG access to guests...
Anyway, have you checked your gallery folder? Does it exist? Is it correctly configured in the SMG admin area? Does it have the right permissions? Are the files physically present in it?

:o :o sorry... will go in and check permissions etc!
UMmmmm, physically present? I don;'t know what you exactly mean by that...
I thought that the converter was supposed to do that. how exactly would I go about getting them PHYSICALLY in the folder? do I just FTP them over from the other gallery?

Were you trying to check out the site?
I have a test membername that you can use (I could pm it to you if you so wish)

OK.... found ONE major problem.....

It was pointing to the wrong file path from when I had it installed a long time ago on a different server.... but I had changed it now to the proper one... and STILL no images showing,
PLUS... I cannot upload a new test one...
QuoteCannot find proper destination on the server, please contact your administrator
I am going to dump the cache for the forum and hopefully THAT might help... but I am still perplexed on why it won't show my photos from the other gallery that I supposedly 'converted'...

weird....  :-[

Oh... and changed the permissions, so you can try to check it out now......
(its the FIRST gallery button, not the second...)

I would recomment that you point the SMG data folder to the default, then uninstall SMG, then remove all related folders, then reinstall SMG and re-run the conversion script.
I will not make any deals with you. I've resigned. I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered.

OK... really confused now.
I have the SMG folder as what it installs with...

I will try to uninstall and reinstall and run conversion.

RESOLVED!!!I am pleased to say that it was MY FAULT with this whole conversion thingie!!!WOW, who would have thunk it that it would have installed with all your old settings that you had in over 6 months ago.I had to get rid of it (SMG) because the server I was using (aplus.net) was very NOT COMPATIBLE with it, so I had to use alternatives.Now that I am on a new hostserver (hostgator) I wanted it back again, since I really hate the layout of GalleryPRO, But I never would have thought that installing SMG would install with my old paths that were with the other server... and since I didn't realise that before running the converter, all the images were sent to an invalid path.So, after uninstalling and reinstalling along with making sure the paths were right... the converter worked perfectly!Thanks for the help!toodles! 8) :D

I'm not a big fan of the SMF Gallery layout either, from what I could see.
Doesn't mean I'm happy with SMF Media Gallery's either, though. But I always manage to postpone my reworking, and add a few things here and there instead, as time goes by...

I've installed "SMFMediaGallery-1.5.6.zip".
It has been installed successfully.
Where is the tab, or link to upload/view the images?

I have nothing on my site suggesting the is a gallery, and in new topics, there isn't an option for a gallery.

I have a topic in SMF2.0 RC 1.1 for help on image upload problems.

Thanks!

Are your permissions correctly set?
Are you using SMF1 or SMF2?

I'm using SMF2.

As far as I know the permissions are ok.
Are there any other folders that need write access (other than the standard SMF2 installation files and folders?).

i have all the folder and files from galery 777 (forum, mgal_data and the files on mgal_data) and i stil getting the "This album's directory couldn't be properly created, please make sure mgal_data and mgal_data/albums is chmodded to 777" Error when i try to create and Album

I'm usign SMF 2.0R1-1

Nao 尚

Aroa, try with other chmod such as 0755 or 0644. Some servers are restrictive about that.
Also, are you in safe mode?

I searched this thread unsuccessfully.  I was just wondering if there is a setting so that when the images get enlarged that the browser in the background gets darkened out.  Cheers, great product too btw :)

I don't know how to set safe mod, but i think i'm not '-'

There is any incompatibilty with pretty url or AjaxIntegration Chat?
