Hi,
When I try to get the 3D wall going (hover over More and click on "See these photos on the cooliris 3d wall") it just goes to the main cooliris page. I have already clicked on "Get cooliris" and installed the plugin for Firefox. How do I activate my gallery3 slideshow in 3d wall mode? Regular slideshow mode works fine, both full screen and not.

what cooliris version do you have installed if any
does it work in other two modes (see module settings page)?
default module need to be disabled for proper initialization

Cooliris (firefox plugin) 1.12.0.36949
On module page, I have the following enabled:
Slideshow 2 Allows users to view a slideshow of photos
Is there something else I need to do? Should I disable slideshow mode and re-enable?
Thanks for the quick reply.

Slideshow 2 is default module
Module for this post is Slideshow Ex
Download it from location above
Unpack in modules folder in your G3 installation
Slideshow Ex 1 would appear in modules list
Deactivate Slideshow and activate Slideshow Ex
New option would appear under Settings - Slideshow Ex. Go there and choose mode you want slideshow being displayed

Does the embedding of the 3D Wall use a lot of resources on the server with a high traffic gallery?
thanks.

that is something you need to test, I am not sure
check cooliris FAQ

I had this working beautifully for 6 months.
Now I seem to have lost my mind figuring out how to embed it on my website.
1. install slideshow ex
2. activate slideshow ex and deactivate slideshow modules
3. setting change to cooliris (embedded)
4. open album, click slideshow
5. copy crossdomain.xml in webpage
What did I miss?
this is my webpage below

What have you changed from before?
Posts: 92
I moved to a linux server with cPanel. Before I was on a FreeBSD Unix server.
FTP to the root directory which is home/user/public_html/crossdomain.xml
and
before it was /home/user/www/crossdomain.xml
crossdomain.xml page doesn't need my website name?
I read all the documention on adobe and forums and don't remember it being difficult to comprehend.
I recall it being fairly easy to implement. I thought a bigger server would be great to fire it up again without resources needing monitored

This is not cross domain issue
For some reason, if you posted code correctly, you have code duplication
It was straight move or you install something new in g3 or upgraded g3 itself?
For whatever reason cross domain is now part of the page source when should be standalone file
You did not copy/paste XML into wrong file, did you?
Posts: 92
Yes, g3 has been upgraded to 3.0.2 since the original install and I have not fired up cooliris embedded feature in this version. It was working on 2 domains at that time and now I can't get them work.
I am going to start with a new burst of energy tomorrow to figure it out and report back.
Thanks Serge for you continuous help.

I totally lost my way but figured it out.
My xml document had the html <head> and <body> tags
It works like I rememeber,extremely well.

I was hoping if I created an embedded slideshow it would get Internet Explorer to respond to slideshow.
Images loads partially and the remaining images are dark squares that are clickable and enlarges but never produce a image.
The normal browsing of images works when navigating.
No change when switching to Slideshow module only or to default wind theme.
No problems in FireFox or Safari. I tried several computers too.

I do not control cooliris
you do need to make sure images are accessable from behind RSS
if you have security restrictions it may affect it as G3 may consider it as an external reference

Thanks Serge but my issue isn't with cooloris as I was only trying to use this module to get around the real issue with default minislideshow. I started a thread for it http://gallery.menalto.com/node/104132

The issue turns out to be the result of an image redirect in iluv4u2c's .htaccess
He believes a WP module created the redirect.

I figured out the access to the .htaccess is due to a link provided in cPanel for Hotlink Protection.
This redirect didn't allow the images to load in the gallery sildeshow.
Probably a good thing to know for other clients hosting photo slideshows.
I inserted a link this AM and the slideshow stopped loading images again. Note: this only affected IE9.

I have latest slideshow ex installed and disabled the default slideshow. i'm trying to use the cooliris mini but it doesn't resize to fit so you see a portion of a large image. i tried the cooliris wall but it doesn't load all the thumbs in the album. the thumbs at the buttom only scroll once with the arrow to load next set of pics. for some reason the arrow is grayed out and i can't scroll anymore to the right to load next set of pics in the album. this works fine when i'm in the cooliris mini, but that has resize fit problem.
i'm using the latest gallery3.0.3 and slideshow ex 1.5

Could you try accessing the slideshow on my site http://photo.dragonsoft.us?

your site looks fine but i don't think your module is doing any resizing since the pics are small enough to begin with. if you try to download one of mine, which are highrez files then try to upload to your site to view them in slideshow then i believe you will get the same issue. just go to my site and open up the fancybox and save image as, so you get the original file which should be a few mb each. thanks!

Resize browser to make a viewport smaller or change your resolution should do the same, is it not?

your site still seems fine after changing my screen resolution and viewport smaller. did some more testing and converted one of the images to lower resolution, but still higher than my screen resolution and it seems to work fine. so i'm pretty sure its something to do with the resolution size. can you do me a favor and copy these 2 pics and upload them to your site to test? on my site, the smaller one resizes properly but the larger one doesn't within the slideshow.
