Just add -> dataSort: 'random', <- like below:

Galleria.addTheme({
  name: 'pangolin-inline',
  version: 1.5,
  author: 'The Turning Gate',
  defaults: {
    clicknext: true,
    debug: false,
    fullscreenCrop: false,
    imageCrop: true,

Hi all,

how can I activate dataSort: 'random' in the Galleria slideshow?
Do I have to do it in the galleria-1.5.7.min.js and if, how?

Best regards,
Oliver

Hi Daniel,

looks like this:

<meta name="description" content="Atelier Axel Kreiser K\u00f6ln - Skulpturen &amp; Texte. Meistersch\u00fcler Prof. Tony Cragg 1992. Leiter der Metallbildnerei Kunstakademie D\u00fcsseldorf." />

#8 Re: Backlight 2 Support » German Umlaut Ä Ö Ü » 2020-03-23 20:35:03

I want the following but if I write it in the Album Description like:
"Atelier Axel Kreiser Köln - Skulpturen & Texte. Meisterschüler Prof. Tony Cragg 1992. Leiter der Metallbildnerei Kunstakademie Düsseldorf."

it is displayed in search engine results:

"Atelier Axel Kreiser K\u00f6ln - Skulpturen & Texte. Meistersch\u00fcler Prof. Tony Cragg 1992. Leiter der Metallbildnerei Kunstakademie D\u00fcsseldorf"

so for now I wrote it like:

"Atelier Axel Kreiser Koeln - Skulpturen & Texte. Meisterschueler Prof. Tony Cragg 1992. Leiter der Metallbildnerei Kunstakademie Duesseldorf."

to avoid \u00f6 and \u00fc...

Best regards,
Oliver

Ok, but that's not the problem. The problem is that using ÄÖÜ in Album Description results in those &auml; &Auml; etc.

Default language is set to German.
Here is the header of the site:

What is the solution???

Hi Daniel,

it is www.axelkreiser.com where I embedded an album with the album description.
If you google axel kreiser you should 1. find the homepage, then 2. biografie in the results. the biography site works with umlaute cause it is part of the text content.

Best regards,
Oliver

#11 Re: Backlight 2 Support » German Umlaut Ä Ö Ü » 2020-03-20 21:34:35

Hi all,

even with the updated Backlight2 version Ä Ö Ü in the Album Description is still interpreted as  \u00c4 \u00d6 \u00dc in the Google Search result.

Is there a solution in sight or do I have to live with it?

Thank you.

Best regards,
Oliver

Hi all,

a solution for this Umlaut problem is highly appreciated :-)

Hi Michael,

thanks for your reply. Both fields "fb:admins" and "fb:app_id" are empty and I tried &auml; &Auml; etc which changes anything but K&ouml;ln instead Köln. :-|

Thanks for liking the pages :-) Probably I should implement a newsletter option!

Best,
Oliver

#14 Re: Backlight 2 Support » German Umlaut Ä Ö Ü » 2020-03-02 08:24:09

Dear Michilge,

exactly, but only with the homepage album description. Another search result shows the correct Ä Ö Ü content of the Imprint.
I set German-DE as default language in settings and templates and entered the verification id.

just google Axel Kreiser and google results the homepage where I changed the Umlauts to ae, oe or ue.
and the second result "Impressum" where everything is ok e.g. Köln.

Best,
Oliver

#15 Re: Backlight 2 Support » German Umlaut Ä Ö Ü » 2020-03-01 21:01:55

Hello, does anybody has an idea on how to solve the Ä Ö Ü problem???

Hi all,

after setting up a pure German language Backlight2 website I have a problem with German Umlauts.
Filling in the home page's album description in Lightroom or even Backlight2 with the Umlauts ä ö ü the google search result shows those funny signs so that I had to change ä -> ae, ö -> oe...

Does anybody has an idea how to solve that???

Best regards,
Oliver

#18 Re: Backlight 2 Support » Seperate Title from Caption in Slideshow » 2019-12-06 05:39:32

Daniel,

a swipeable single-image page would be awesome! :-)

Best regards,
Oliver

#19 Re: Backlight 2 Support » Seperate Title from Caption in Slideshow » 2019-12-02 21:57:27

Hi Rod,

thank you for your response.
I played around with Daniels phpplugins script and it works good for single-image pages. But unfortunately they are not swiepable, so I fall back to the slideshow and have to live with it.

Best regards,
Oliver

Hi all,

would it be possible to seperate the image title from the image caption in the slideshow so that it results in two lines below the image like:

<strong>Title</strong>
Caption

porbably with the help of phplugins?

Best regards,
Oliver

Hi all,

highlighting the current page menu item is not working for me in the WP-Theme. Why is that?

I use the phplugins script:

// Add class "current_page_item" to menu item for the current page;
// You can style this as you like, for example, to highlight the current page menu item.
function scripts() {
echo <<<SCRIPT
    <script>
    $("ul.menu a[href='" + window.location.pathname + "']")
        .parentsUntil('.menu', 'li')
        .addClass("current_page_item")
        ;
    </script>
SCRIPT;
    return false;
} // END /**/

with the CSS:

a.current_page_item, .current_page_item a {
    text-decoration: underline !important;
    color: #ff8000 !important;
   
}

It works perfect with Backlight but has no effect on the WP Site

Any suggestions???

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
Oliver
