Cell numbers in CRG gallery?

Hello, restarting this thread in the correct location, BL2.

I'm hoping there's a way to display cell numbers on the thumbnail gallery in a CRG.

Re: Cell numbers in CRG gallery?

I noticed two things. You've got the correct metadata token in Metadata 1 for CellNumber but the cell number isn't displaying.
You've got the Filename metadata token assigned to the large image in slideshow presentation but the file number isn't showing up.

This suggests that the album needs republishing to push this metadata to the site. Can you give that a try? You can check the "Push metadata without updating existing photos" box to make this go faster

Re: Cell numbers in CRG gallery?

Hi Rod, thanks for your help.

I just republished again via LR. It took a couple browser refreshes, but I see the cell numbers now!

I swear I republished yesterday a few times with no result. Just needed your magic touch I suppose smile

Thanks again!

Hey while I've got your ear, any way to remove the "Galleries > BRYN MAWR - PROOFS  > " text navigation?
These galleries are meant to be stand alone pages and I don't need clients clicking around outside of each one..

Some metadata is there: [crg_meta01] => 2/52, but I don't see [thumbnails_meta01]

Re: Cell numbers in CRG gallery?

I'm seeing cell numbers in your thumbnails. Try refreshing the browser. You may also need to clear browser cache.

In Lightroom, edit the album. In the Features tab, uncheck Display Breadcrumbs.

Re: Cell numbers in CRG gallery?

I was fiddling with this site pideja.ca/rdv and I had almost right. The breadcrumbs in the large image display read:

Productions } Les fées ont soif } (filename) 

But then I must have changed something either in Backlight or in Lightroom's Publisher, but now the Filename is changed to the Album name. Which makes a repeat of that Album's name.

Any hint on how to find my way back to the Filename in those breadcrumbs?

Re: Cell numbers in CRG gallery?

Here is what I found in the Inspector:
breadcrumbs
Notice that the third breadcrumb (fa_pseudo) repeats the second breadcrumb. It should display the Filename.

Where do I set this? In Publisher or in Backlight? Can't seem to find it. I know I posted something about this issue before, but I did have the filename displayed in the large image breadcrumb, just a few minutes ago!

I just noticed that the second breadcrumb (Title) is lifted from the Album Title in Lightroom's Publisher Base Settings Tab.
The third breadcrumb is taken from the Title in Lightroom's Metadata. This is the one I would like to change to display the Filename.

I also found in Backlight/Publisher/Productions/Albums/Les fées ont soif
http://pideja.ca/rdv/backlight/publishe … lbum/7721/ the indication that the breadcrumb should be "Les fées ont soif", the Title rather than the Filename. Also, on the right to this are the thumbnails and under each is the Title instead of the Filename, as seen on the website https://pideja.ca/rdv/galleries/soif/image. Strange, non?

Re: Cell numbers in CRG gallery?

By removing the Title in Lightroom's Metadata, the breadcrumb displayed is the Filename! I know this is a rather meeker workaround but for now, it will do. But I would rather find the correct setting to get this breadcrumb.

Now, I have the Filename in the breadcrumb and under the image. Ah, redundancy!

Re: Cell numbers in CRG gallery?

AFAIK, if the image has no title, then the filename is used.

Re: Cell numbers in CRG gallery?

Change the image title so that it doesn't contain the filename: [title] => RDV180922-8862.jpg

Re: Cell numbers in CRG gallery?

Since this last bit is unrelated to the original topic, if you have more issues, can you start a new thread?
