Ok, so wasn't sure where exactly I should be putting this!!

i love gallery, haven't looked at 3.0 yet, but will shortly :D

i predominantly use joomla for my site(s), i'm wanting to know if and how to use gallery within a joomla template as opposed to one of the 'themes'

Also, can gallery be linked in to say automatically create a user gallery for registered site users??

Thanks in advance for your help folks :D

http://codex.gallery2.org/Integration

but I believe the current joomla/gallery2 bridge is called jFusion, so search for that.

No embed API yet for G3, coming in G3.1

No, I said there will be an embed API in 3.1, jFusion was written for 2.3.x <- and not by me, so I have absolutely no idea what the roadmap for jFusion looks like - nor do I care.

couldn't find a gallery 3 to joomla 1.6 bridge either, i really wanted one too. i loved the g2bridge that ozman did years ago. it was perfect. i finally broke down and wrote my own. be nice, it's pre-alpha. you're all welcome to help develop it: http://jom-comgallery3.sourceforge.net/

you can download the current packaged pre-alpha release from: http://sourceforge.net/projects/jom-comgallery3/files/0.1.0/com_gallery3.zip/download

after installation, go to the joomla administrator, click on the component menu and select "Gallery3". It will bring up the "About" screen. Click on the "Options" button on the top right toolbar. Enter the URL for your Gallery REST API. normally something like: http://gallery.example.com/index.php/rest then enter your administrator username and password (or some "public" username and password).

then you can try going to your joomla gallery site: http://example.com/index.php?option=com_gallery3. this should show your root gallery.

there's a lot of features that are missing:

if a user doesnt have a REST token saved in joomla, then the component should prompt for a gallery 3 username and password, then the component should store the authenticated token and the associated joomla user in a a joomla table. the next time, it will simply try to use that token to connect to gallery. if the token isnt valid, then it will prompt for a gallery 3 username and password again and get a new token.
the pathway and URLs currently arent very SEO friendly, id like to clean that up, and standardize how i'm getting the joomla urls and paths
interface for uploading photos through the front end.
using the joomla ACL for permissions checking
an admin interface for managing your album

the list goes on and on

those are just a few i can think of.

the next feature i will be working on is the first one syncing up the users.
