Hello Erlis,

I´m sorry for didn´t contribute yet... i´m very inside my site, it´s so much plugins and configurations...

But i will help in the FAQ of this theme!!

Thanks and Regards,

Have you tired to scroll to the end of the page. That would load more images.

You might want to change the value 50 in the code also.

I am running Version: 3.0.6 (Rive Gauche)

Hello, I have an odd issue I didn't have until G3 also. When I set an album to show carousel as the default view, no photos show up. I get the loading animation, it flashes real quick 0/10 and then goes blank. I can click grid or mosaic on the bottom, and then click carousel and it works, but that defeats the purpose. It happens in both IE (which I share a distate of) and Chrome. Any ideas? I'll leave the album this way so you can see it.

Other colors would be the same method.
Best be it to use firefox and the dev tool to see what css classes each item you want to change. There is tutorials on the dev tool on the net.

themes/pear4gallery3/css/screen.css would be where I would start.

body, html {
  background-color: #000;
  color: #999;
  font-size: 10px;
  font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Lucida Sans', Arial, sans-serif;
}

add !important like:
background-color: #f00!important;
to change it to red.
That should get you started.

Erlis,

Thanks for the post. I am almost done with my project. Basically I took a bunch of images from the public domain about 100K and loaded them into gallery3. (did a database reload about half a dozen times (-;) and then index and tagged them. My goal was to create a website that lets people search about places and landmarks and view them in a timeline. I am interested to see if anyone find this useful. on a full disclose part, I do allow poeople to order the pictures that I can print for them in 4x6 upto 13x19. I did not iirc change any of the main gallery3 code, I did change a bunch of the css and pear3. The site is http://www.findbyplace.com , some interesting timelines are Alcatraz, Boston Common, or Boston Public Library.

The timeline is a open source project also, but any part that you find that want contributed back I can.

again thanks for the cool gallery.

UPDATE. bug, seems to only work on Firefox..... working on getting to work on other browsers.....
UPDATE2 guess navigate was null causing it to crash, seems ok on safari and chrome. dont have a windows IE in front of me right now.

Thanks a lot - I love this theme!!

I have a question, though. Right now, I have a lot of picture on my site (about 100 albums and probably 200-400 pictures per album), and it take a long time (like 5-10 minutes) to open an album when I click on it. Is there anything I can do to improve the speed?

I'm on Dreamhost and am a little nervous about changing the preset PHP settings.

Thanks,
Peter

This is perfect? I used option 2 (Lower the skimming size) and set it to "4." Now my albums load very quickly. Thank you so much for this great solution!!!

For the options button i suggest that you just change the stylesheet and hide it e.g.

Add this to css/pear.css

#gsNavBar > div.rNavBar {
    display: none;
}

For search engine metadata I suggest you to read googles document about it: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/79812 and modify views/page.html.php accordingly. I'm already using some of the information that might be of interest for google at line 161. It seems strange that google can't handle the title and description, but if you say so..

You add description for your main album (and sub albums) via Options -> Album Options -> Edit album (saying that you have signed in). I suggest you enable the Options button in order to administer the page (the Inspector in Chrome is really great for such tasks).

Edit: While playing around with the tags, you can debug via google's own verifier: http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/richsnippets

Please point me in the right direction.... do i need to add this html at line 161 with of course my own info ?

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<META NAME="Description" CONTENT="Auteur: A.N. Auteur, Illustrator: P. Plaatje, Categorie: Boeken, Prijs: £ 9,24, Lengte: 784 pagina's">
<meta name="google-site-verification" content="+nxGUDJ4QpAZ5l9Bsjdi102tLVC21AIh5d1Nl23908vVuFHs34="/>
<title>Voorbeeld Boeken - Tweedehands kinderboeken van topkwaliteit</title>
<meta name="robots" content="noindex,nofollow">

And how can i change the text in the option button ? removing the button wasnt so clever as i thought

Have you tried the official module: http://codex.galleryproject.org/Gallery3:Modules:metadescription??

Seems like this is a no issue as there is a module that fixes it..

Try setting "Limit amount of thumbs in album skimming (set to 0 to disable)" to 0 to disable skimming..

Under theme settings in the admin page.

is it possible to make a new 404 page ? instead of the login page when entering the wrong url

Thanks for the reply... And the question about adding a header to the theme can i ask you or should i ask dave as well ?
