...and am always amazed by the flash tagcloud WP plugin from Roy Tanck. I was wondering how you got it there and if it would be possible to add it in the sidebar on G3 ? Similar, but not a WP plug-in - http://codex.gallery2.org/Gallery3:Modules:tag_cloud PS: you do use Pear theme |

As I am in a G3 testing phase, I am switching between GD and Pear a lot. Thank you for the tag cloud link, I thought that my "Tags" module was the only one available...testing that asap ! on both themes ;-) ------ |

Thanks for coming back to me. I don't believe I am using any particular large fonts / Text size in the browser. My deafault browser is IE9 but I get the same result on Chrome and Safari. Is there any way to check? You can take a look at the gallery at www.murnaghan.com/gallery3 Thanks. |

Oh, I see I'll fix it in next version but in the mean time adjust the following rule in base.css .g-album-grid-container.g-column-3 li.g-item { width: 31%; margin-right: 0; } you would need to reset the cache after the change - see maintenance section of the theme's admin Serge |

Serge, Thank you for all of this hard work. I have been playing with GD over the last couple days and GDwind a little as well. I am having trouble getting G3 with GD to look like what I have in G2. Here are the differences I am trying to overcome when using GD in G3. I took a look at GreyDragon Wind and it did not have the issues that I reported in 1) and 2) above. It honors case and lets me have longer titles. The problem is that with that theme, anyone viewing the album can only see the title when they hover over a picture. I much prefer the static ability to show the full (not truncated) titles of photos under the sets of thumbnails. And I'll be honest, some of my titles approach 200 characters. The limit in G3 is 255 characters. Here is what I've got in G2 and sort of what I am trying to replicate in G3: This is that same page in G3 with GD running: Are there adjustments that can be made in Grey Dragon or Grey Dragon Wind that could accommodate this? Thanks for all your hard work. |

1) The title for every photo is in all caps rather then honoring the case in the actual title. .g-thumbslide .g-description .g-title, .g-expanded .g-thumbslide .g-description .g-title, div.g-resize .g-description strong { text-transform: none; } Hammers wrote:
2) The title for many of my photos is cut off when using GD. Some of my photos have lengthy titles. Cannot do anything about that as it is your content. You would need to choose Large thumbs or reduce titles. Theme does not allow title overflow like in your G2 Hammers wrote:
3) It seems to be a limitation in G3 that you cannot have a photo without a title. With G2, I used Gallery Remote to upload my photos and I used the option that if there was no title, to not use the filename for the title. It seems I cannot do this in G3. When I go to edit an existing photo, it makes me put something in there. Unfortunately, this means that many of my photos in G3 are displayed with a filename under them. This is not appealing. Can you think of some creative way to work around that? I think someone else requested that about 20 pages ago in this thread. I was hoping that the "Title Source" option when set to "Title/Suppress File Name" would achieve that, but I must not understand that setting because it doesn't do what I described above. When you upload photo (not G2 import), wizard actually will use file name as a title. In latest version of the GD you can choose Title Source. One caveat to that is that if file is like "Some Photo.jpg" - notice space - upload wizard will make title as something close to "Some-Photo". Current logic simply compares title and file name without extension, which does not work in this case. Hammers wrote:

Serge, Thank you for taking the time to give a detailed response. Your theme sets the bar pretty high as far as configuration. After reading your message I have tried some other themes that can get me closer to what I have in G2, but none of those themes are nearly as configurable as yours. Thanks for your contributions. |

I keep getting the following error which is killing my ability to use any AJAX calls in Gallery - $(document).KbdNavigation is not a function. How do I fix this without removing the plug-in? You can see the error here - http://www.carefreetrip.com/gallery/ |

Serge, Thank you for the work. I had switched to using the Clean Canvas theme because it allowed for more text in the title and a few other reasons. Since you put in the effort, I thought it important for me to at least try it. At this point it looks like I may be going forward with the Clean Canvas theme because of the longer values I have for some titles, but if you wanted me to test this feature (hiding titles with filenames) in the Greydragon theme I am happy to try any testing and report back to you. Thanks, |

@Hammers: it is fine. One thing if you could share - for files where title does not show properly what are actual values of Title/Filename/Internet Address in Edit Photo dialog Serge |

Serge, I have taken a screenshot of the data and posted it here: It may or may not matter, but these photos were migrated from G2 using the G2 import module in G3. I am not sure if the values would be different if I had directly uploaded the photos to G3. Let me know if you would like me to try any other testing. Thanks, |

Serge, I don't know if this helps, but floridave made an adjustment to the Clear Canvas theme. I tested it this morning and it hides the filenames. I'm not sure if his method would work with your theme, but here is the thread: |

Yes hard-coding IMG is _not_ a good solution. I just did it for this particular case. Dave |

Serge, To answer your questions. The update shows nothing for the title on photos that begin with the string "IMG" for the title. For me, it provides a cleaner look to the pages when viewing thumbnails. I do realize it is probably not a good "universal" solution. But in my case it met my specific need and I greatly appreciate it. Hopefully it will also be of use to others out there as well. I appreciate you both. |

Aside from not perfect logic for detection of the file name, GD now detects them and replaces with "Photo #" rather than with blank. I think it is step in right direction. Once I made universal detection working, it should be fine. Serge |

Serge, Thanks I made the changes you suggested but still had the problem with the columns. I did however reset the theme back to the default settings in case I had done something else wrong. With the default settings it worked - a 3 x 3 layout as I wanted. However when I changed the photoframe to iphoto the layout problem was back. I then tried changing the colour pack to blackhawk with iphoto and that worked OK too. I tried a few combinations and it was only the greydragon / iphoto combination that didn't work. I have swapped to greydragon / iphone that works fine for now. Could it be a simple fix to get greydragon / iphone to work too? Thanks again for taking the trouble to look into the problem. Adrian. |

Easiest way probably would be to grab module like colorbox/fancybox/shadowbox and and adjust logic so instead of overlay you open a new window... Serge |

If you modified right in the theme's CSS instead of using custom.css then you need to refresh CSS cache by making small change (add space) to screen.css Serge |

Hi, I just set up Gallery3 with the Grey Dragon Theme. I'm hoping this is simple, but when I try to rearrange/organize the pictures in an album it says 'an error occurred consult your system administrator.' Any ideas? Thanks, Kim |
