#2 CE4 Publisher » Index images are low resolution » 2014-11-23 06:31:10

Hi, picking up again after a long time...

I set up an autoindex page as type iconic, but I can't figure out how to get large enough thumbnails...
See here to see what I mean: http://www.jfschmitz.com/galleries.php
In the preview in LR, the images appear indeed as small thumbnails:

What am I missing :-) ?

On a side note, I guess that once you've copied your settings across templates, and further designed your WP template, it's not a good idea any more to redo the process as it will overwrite WP specific settings in the destination template?
(assuming copying from Pages to WP, of course smile)

That's a pity... Avoiding this would be as easy as not ticking the share option in the WP module :-)
Matt, this sharing feature is great! I vote for bringing it in the WP module as well!

#7 Re: General » Chrome not displaying some fonts correctly » 2014-09-07 05:45:59

I had the same issue... All of a sudden, fonts were completely scrambled... Not only Gill Sans, BTW, also Helvetica Neue...
Did some research on The web, seems like font corruptions are common in Chrome...
BUT, then I started to see the same corruptions in Firefox... I don't have time to investigate this in detail, so I just used another font stack.

Theme for Wordpress ignores Shared Resources

Thnx, didn't see that.
Change log says "intended from the start". What's the reason for this?

So, I've configured all my plugins to use the shared resources option. "Get shared resources from TTG CE4 Pages" is ticked on everywhere, and "/" is set as Site Root everywhere.
This works great, except for my WP template that doesn't pick up the CSS from Pages. Now, all my CE4 sits in the root of the site, but WP sintgs in a ./blog/. subfolder. So I made an exception for the WP template, and put a hardcoded url http://www.jfschmitz.com/ as Site Root, but this didn't help. What should I do to get the WP theme pick up the shared resources?

I deleted everything except my WP install in ./blog/ and reinstalled all in order. All working perfect now :-)
Probably some leftover from a bad move !

But Pages doesn't create a standard gallery. CE4 Gallery does.

Yes, but as Pages can generate a flip gallery, I though I could use it to generate the template...

#12 Re: CE4 Publisher » Error message when trying to publish to home page gallery » 2014-09-03 03:50:50

My top level is ./galleries/.

./galleries/portfolios/ was created by the publisher plugin:
Capture3.PNG

I don't know where pages-gallery is :-( There is no folder with that name under  http://jfschmitz.com/galleries/portfolios/

I'm going to completely wipe out the site (except the WP part) and install again.

the gallery found here is made with Pages: http://jfschmitz.com/galleries/pages-gallery as can be seen from the source code:

<meta name="generator" content="CE4 Pages 7.0.8, 6 published images" />

Actually, this folder does not exist "physically" in the site's structure:
Capture2.PNG
It is correct however that I first generated the template for the home page gallery with Pages, resulting in a standard gallery. I then regenerated it with Stage. Seems like I have a leftover from the previous attempt but I have no clue how to clean up this redirection going on here.

I deleted and recreated the Publisher instance in LR. Publishing other (nested) galleries with an auto-index and a gallery template works ok (./galleries/portfolios/.).

#15 Re: CE4 Publisher » Error message when trying to publish to home page gallery » 2014-09-02 13:19:14

I've put the template here. I renamed it from 'Flip Page Template.lrtemplate" to "flip-page-template.lrtemplate" and removed info such as Google Webmaster tools and Bitly API keys, but otherwise it's untouched.
The generated files sit on the server at http://www.fschmitz.com/ttg-be/template … template/.

So I followed the instructions over here to set up Publisher to manage my Flip Page home gallery.
The template was generated with Stage. When I attempt to publish the album, I get following error message:
Capture1.PNG
No images are published and my home page is an empty gallery with broken links to images in an  non-existent ./galleries/pages-gallery folder.

When I set "Allow page replacement..." again to No in pages, my flip page home gallery is back again (but not managed by Publisher, of course).

In  the Wiki page you write "Using your FTP client and a plain text-editor, open the /galleries/phplugins/phplugins.php file for editing." Is that correct? I have phpplugins in the root, not under /galleries/ ...

#19 Re: CE4 Theme for WordPress » Flip gallery as home page » 2014-08-27 01:03:14

OK. Though you were using WP for the blog *and* the menues because I saw your "Bio & Contact" is located under /blog/bio & Contact" :-)

I'll give it a shot this week. Just to be sure: the menus on your site are from Wordpress (using "Step 7: Imbue Your Menu with the Power of MAGIC" (I guess so), or from CE4 Pages?

Thanks!

It's been a loooong time since this thread :-) I'm starting up again with CE4 and setting up a site that I want structured much line Matthew"s one at campagnapictures.com, with a WP installation in a /blog/ subfolder. My site is at www.jfschmitz.com,.

I noticed on Matthews' site that the flip gallery is located in the root folder (or at least appears to be located there). Can I simply generate the needed files with CE4 Stage and drop them in the root of my site, or do you put them in some sub-folder and then use redirects to make it appear as if they are in the root?

PS: BTW, enjoying a lot CE4 :-)
