hi!
i´ve a problem with awsom pixgallery:

after uploading the pictures the gallerytumbs appeare. but if i click on the thumbs the message shows up: “Image cannot be loaded. Make sure the path is correct and image exists.”

http://trens.tr.funpic.de/wordpress/?page_id=15

if i click right on the thumb and choose “copy link adress” the the adress is

http://trens.tr.funpic.de/wordpress/?page_id=15&px=%2Fcome_get_some.jpg

but thats totally wrong, the path of the pictures is

http://trens.tr.funpic.de/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/lg-gallery/

why is the plugin ignoring the subfolders? how is it possible that the plugin generates the thumbs from the pictures but doesn´t find the pictures themselfes?

best regards
ernst

O.k. -for so long I will do the sorting with “Position in Gallery” in combination with an intelligent system of file naming.

If you would like to have a look on my gallery: http://lichtmaler.in/gallery/

Hi, for the moment sort ordering is done globally–so both images and galleries use the same system. As part of an update I hope to add per gallery sorting, so each gallery level can have it’s own option. Can’t say when this will be–I’m in the middle of some RSS design for the plugin–but I hope to add it as soon as I can.

Thanks for your answer.

Because I got the pictures from different photographers and not all of them knew about IPTC I will do this with the Image description.

But there’s another wish: I would like to sort the images within a gallery by the default “Last File Added First” and the galleries by “Ascending Numerical Sort”. If I select the default sort order the galleries sorted that way too.

Even though in the settings it’s called “How do you want PixGallery to sort your images on the Thumbnail page” the galleries are sorted too.

Is there any chance to sort the way I would like to do.

Thanks

Hi Thomas,
To add an entirely new field would be a somewhat extensive mod. One quick way to get what you want would be to look at adding IPTC data to your images and turning that feature to on in the settings. IPTC data is what newspapers or other image catalogers use to embed artist or photographer names directly into the image’s metadata. Pixgallery can support the display of this data and it will appear below the image if the feature is turned on and the data exists.

Photoshop can write this data into a jpg file.

For the future I am considering adding “extra” fields capability, which would allow admins to define extra fields like your request. Unfortunately this isn’t going to happen very soon since my dev schedule is pretty full right now.

First of all I want to say thank you for this great plugin.

There’s one wish. In addition to the “Custom Image Name For Display” and the “Image Caption” I would like to have a text field for the creator/photografer of an image/picture.

Would it be possible to do this and did you get an idea how.

I have some experience in PHP and MySQL but I don’t know where to start.

Thanks for any input
Thomas

Installed 4.6.1 pixgallery with WordPress 2.9.2 using DarkMystery theme. Set up this site as a test until it’s approved in a directory on my client’s server called “wordpress”. I can set up galleries with thumbnails though clicking on a thumb gives the error 404 message. Downloaded the “fix” though it mad all of of my pages go white after i reisnstalled it in my plugins folder. Deleted it, and went back and reinstalled 4.6.1. Used absolute linking in the settings. Deactivated all plugins except pixgallery, and also returned to default theme, though still no luck. I have also moved the images to within the awsompixgallery directory inside the uploads folder, and that does not work either. Anything i’m missing?
