Ice Theme

also, another question. ice_default and ice_carbon imageframes change color to blue and gray on hover. How do I get to change the hover color? I tried editing the imageframes, but that didnt work.

Thanks a lot, Boner. figured it out. for those of using firefox, Firebug is an indispensable tool. It lets you dive down into the HTML to see what CSS id/class is being applied to any specific part of the page. it also lets you modify CSS on the fly to test out any changes (wont let you save any changes though, which makes sense cuz then you can go around editing other people's sites).

Has anyone tried integrating Lightbox into this theme? I was playing with it last night but I must be doing something wrong as I cant seem to get it to work properly.

Why does IE7 suck so much? I tweaked this theme to look exactly the way I want in Firefox. Opened it up in IE and found out that certain things dont render the way I want them to in IE.
Take a look at the two screenshot links
IE - http://pics.apartment808.com/users/aharami/gallery_ie.jpg
FFX - http://pics.apartment808.com/users/aharami/gallery_ffx.jpg

I have colorpacks disabled and I set the links under theme.css to

yet the links (guest the bottom, edit/delete in the comments, and the dtree above the Random Image) dont render the color I want it to (#4295c8). Hover color works fine. What I dont get is why are those links not rendering the correct color, but the Systemlinks (site admin/your account/logout) below the header image, which are set to #c3c3c3, rendering correctly.

Also i have the menus (Blog, About, Guestbook, etc) faded out using

These render fine in FFX, but not in IE7.

Any thoughts on why this is happening?

Sorry, but at the moment I have no time to assist.

nevermind, figured it out. I put the canContainChildren if within the frametype if and lightbox only works with image thumbnails now. mustve been something with the "capture linkurl" method that was being used before.

for anyone who wants to make Lightbox work with the Ice theme, follow the first few steps from this link, but when you get to the part where it tells you edit album.tpl, look below. Changes should work for Ice, matrix, and carbon themes since they all use the capture linkUrl method.
Original code from childs.tpl

{if ($child.canContainChildren || $child.entityType == 'GalleryLinkItem')}
    	{assign var=frameType value="albumFrame"}
        {capture assign=linkUrl}{g->url arg1="view=core.ShowItem"
				        arg2="itemId=`$child.id`"}{/capture}
    {else}
        {assign var=frameType value="itemFrame"}
		{capture assign=linkUrl}
	 	{strip}
	  		{if $theme.params.dynamicLinks == 'jump'}
	    		{g->url arg1="view=core.ShowItem" arg2="itemId=`$child.id`"}
	  		{else}
	    		{g->url params=$theme.pageUrl arg1="itemId=`$child.id`"}
	  		{/if}
	  	{/strip}
		{/capture}
    {/if}
	<div>
	{strip}
		{if isset($theme.params.$frameType) && isset($child.thumbnail)}
			{g->container type="imageframe.ImageFrame" frame=$theme.params.$frameType
				      width=$child.thumbnail.width height=$child.thumbnail.height}
			  <a href="{$linkUrl}" alt="{$title}" title="{$title}">
			      {g->image id="%ID%" item=$child image=$child.thumbnail class="%CLASS% giThumbnail"}
				</a>
			{/g->container}
		{elseif isset($child.thumbnail)}
		  <a href="{$linkUrl}" alt="{$title}" title="{$title}">
		    {g->image item=$child image=$child.thumbnail class="giThumbnailIce"}
          </a>
		{else}
		  <a href="{$linkUrl}" class="giMissingThumbnail">
		    {g->text text="no thumbnail"}
		  </a>
		{/if}
	{/strip}
	</div>

My modified code to make lightbox work (similar changes should be made to childsblog.tpl and childsfloat.tpl if you want to show children as blog or float)

{if ($child.canContainChildren || $child.entityType == 'GalleryLinkItem')}
    	{assign var=frameType value="albumFrame"}
    {else}
        {assign var=frameType value="itemFrame"}
    {/if}
	<div>
	{strip}
		{if isset($theme.params.$frameType) && isset($child.thumbnail)}
		 {g->container type="imageframe.ImageFrame" frame=$theme.params.$frameType
		 width=$child.thumbnail.width height=$child.thumbnail.height}
			{if ($child.canContainChildren || $child.entityType == 'GalleryLinkItem')}
				<a href="{g->url arg1="view=core.ShowItem" arg2="itemId=`$child.id`"}" alt="{$title}" title="{$title}">
			{else}
				{if $theme.params.dynamicLinks == 'jump'}
					<a href="{g->url arg1="view=core.DownloadItem" arg2="itemId=`$child.resizedId`"}" alt="{$title}" title="{$title}" rel="lightbox[photos]">
				{else}
					<a href="{g->url params=$theme.pageUrl arg1="itemId=`$child.id`"}" alt="{$title}" title="{$title}" rel="lightbox[photos]">
				{/if}
			{/if}
			{g->image id="%ID%" item=$child image=$child.thumbnail class="%CLASS% giThumbnail"}
				</a>
			{/g->container}
		{elseif isset($child.thumbnail)}
			{if ($child.canContainChildren || $child.entityType == 'GalleryLinkItem')}
				<a href="{g->url arg1="view=core.ShowItem" arg2="itemId=`$child.id`"}" alt="{$title}" title="{$title}">
			{else}
				{if $theme.params.dynamicLinks == 'jump'}
					<a href="{g->url arg1="view=core.DownloadItem" arg2="itemId=`$child.resizedId`"}" alt="{$title}" title="{$title}" rel="lightbox[photos]">
				{else}
					<a href="{g->url params=$theme.pageUrl arg1="itemId=`$child.id`"}" alt="{$title}" title="{$title}" rel="lightbox[photos]">
				{/if}
			{/if}
		    {g->image item=$child image=$child.thumbnail class="giThumbnailIce"}
				</a>
		{else}
		  <a href="{g->url arg1="view=core.ShowItem" arg2="itemId=`$child.id`"}" class="giMissingThumbnail">
		    {g->text text="no thumbnail"}
		  </a>
		{/if}
	{/strip}
	</div>

I don't succeed to delete padding between thumb in ICE theme. There is not any "Ice - Default Thumb frames" under Color Pack and there is not any "Custom Style" menu.
Any ideas?

I use it w/ current SVN as well, with a couple of BTS modifications at http://www.themolavis.com . My family likes it a lot more than the Matrix theme

flush the template cache. also, if your logo is at www.yoursite.com/images/logo.png, you'll have to change your image src to /images/logo.png

for the system links, it works for me in IE7 (look at http://www.themolavis.com )

for the sidebar actions, go to admin -> themes, and any entry for "Blocks to show on XXXXX pages (below description)" (where XXXXX is albums, photos, etc), select the "item actions" block, and uncheck the "use dropdown menu". if it's already unchecked, check it, save, then uncheck and save again.

not sure about the ratings, sorry

i'd suggest using the web developer toolbar in FF and see if the divs are screwy or something...

I have several image resizes available. I've configured the ICE theme to display the various sizes, and selecting a new size works, but every time the user moves to another image, it reverts back to the default (smallest) resize. Is there any way to make it preserve the resize while the user navigates through the album?

ajkessel-
I chatted w/ a dev about this. this feature isn't in g2, for any theme. i've volunteered to begin the coding effort on this, but it's uncertain whether it will make it into 2.3 or not.

First of all... Boner, thanks so much for your effort in the theme... it is just fantastic. I was trying to look for a variable width/floating theme (to make full use of screen space, when I use bigger screen, but avoid horizontal scrollbar when I'm using small screen). Floating Matrix was my favorite but was not supported anymore, while Floatrix is definitely not a good replacement IMHO....

I have had same problem mentioned by MarcelC where the album layout get messed up when using "Show Child as Float Item", mainly because the descriptions of the album etc are always made to be in one looooong line. It would be great if the descriptions text could be limited to the photo size, and that will make a perfect floating theme.

Another problem I found is those options "Show item date (Album)", "Show item view count (Album)" doesn't seems to be working, and I see no difference after ticking/unticking them.

while item size is always shown even if I untick "Show item size (Album)"

and some of the items seems to rely on others... something like "Show item view count (Album)" won't be effective unless I select "Show item details (Album)". I can't figure out the exact combinations...

once again, well done!

Cheers

Hi,

I just upgrade my ice theme to the latest version from the first post. The installation went fine, but I've problem w/ the "Plugins" and "Themes" link in Site admin.
When clicking on it, all I get is a Blank page. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

just another question on the floating items size. I have observed that there is an additional field in the theme section for specifying the "Size of floating items thumbnails", apart from the "default thumbnail size" under the "Album" tab for every album.

however, it seems like whenever the "size of floating items thumbnails" is larger than the "default thumbnail size", the size is ignored (default thumbnail size used). is it some relationship between this 2 fields?

what i did:
under an album -> edit album -> album -> set "default thumbnail size" to 300
under same album -> edit album -> theme -> set "size of floating items thumbnails" to 350

what I get:
floating item is 300
expected:
floating item is 350

I love this theme but I am having a few problems customizing the header. I would like to put Adsense code in the header but the instructions in the link given by Floridave is for the Matrix theme. If anyone has figured out how to add Adsense in the header of the ICE theme, please share that info.

Also, I would like to place Adsense code in the sidebar and footer of the Photo view.

Lastly, how does one turn off the view count under the thumbnails inside the Album? I would like to keep view count for the Album only but not the items inside. Thanks!

Hi all!

when you browse albums/images, this is the flow of things:

1) thumbnails of all the albums

--> click one of them and select an album

2) thumbnails of all the images in the selected album,

--> select an image:

3) selected image (+ thumbnails of the other images in the album, in the sidebar).

What I would like to do is to skip the phase 2. When i'm in the album thumbnails view and click any of them, it would directly open the first image in the album.
Other images of that album would appear at the sidebar.

How can I do this? I'm totally lost, after spending couple of days trying to understand the code behind this. Any hint would be much appreciated!
And sorry if this isn't the right place to ask such questions.

i waned to add a page counter in the photo pages like how it's done in the siriux theme. After some tinkering, I figured it out

In the photo.tpl,
After this

{if $theme.params.photoDescription}	                
  <div class="gsContentDetail">
  <div class="gbBlock gcBorder1">
  {if !empty($theme.item.title)}
    <h3> {$theme.item.title|markup} </h3>
  {/if}

I added this

  {* Navigator *}
  {if !empty($theme.navigator)}
    {g->callback type="core.LoadPeers" item=$theme.item windowSize=1}
    {g->block type="core.Navigator" currentItem=$block.core.LoadPeers.thisPeerIndex totalItems=$block.core.LoadPeers.peerCount}
  {/if}
  {* /Navigator *}

katinas, it looks to me it is "Show Childs as" and select "floating item"
if not, then maybe it's a huge micro navigation thumbnails

I'm trying to add AdSense to my gallery. I'm reading the instructions at http://codex.gallery2.org/Gallery2:How_to_add_adsense and have created the adsense.tpl file.
I'm trying to include it my copy of local/sidebar.tpl file:

{g->block type="core.NavigationLinks" class="gbBlock"}
{g->theme include="adsense.tpl"}

but it doesn't show up. Any ideas what I did wrong ?

Thanks

Thanks bharat for your quick response ... I did clear the cache. It's something template related as others have done similar things to other templates and it did work for them. Hopefully, someone is having similar problems.

Thanks

Can somebody please give me a yes/no response on this?
Thanks

What did you do to hide items title, and show only albums titles?
Thx

ok, saw the post about searching the templates for title="{$title}". i did, but could not find that exact expression. can anyone help please?

my gallery: www.hush.ro

ok, i found a solution, maybe someone else will find it useful:

if you want to show only album titles, but not item titles, do this:
create a folder called local in /themes/ice/templates
copy childs.tpl there
find this inside:
{if $theme.params.showItemTitle}

{if !empty($child.title)}

{if $child.canContainChildren}

<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">

<tr>

<td class="giTitleIcon">

<div class="iconAlbum"></div>

</td>

<td>

<p class="giTitle">{$child.title|markup}</p>

</td>

</tr>

</table>

{else}

<p class="giTitle">{$child.title|markup}</p>

{/if}

{/if}

{/if}

and erase this part:
{else}

<p class="giTitle">{$child.title|markup}</p>

if you for some reason want to display something else instead of the title, do not erase it, just replace {$child.title|markup} with whatever you want to display as your item title.

hope this helps
