I just purchased Backlight3.  I went to Backlight Modules and see the available modules.  When I select Update All under Backlight, I get the following error message:

The module was not installed: Class not found: ZipArchive. To fix this, reinstall Backlight at /backlight/installer. If the problem persists, please report error at http://community.theturninggate.net/viewforum.php?id=44

My file structure on the website is as follows:

/public_html/
       photo-now-backlight
              backlight
              galleries
              ...
              theater
              .htaccess
              error_log
              index.php

The website is www.photographs-now.com.  It is currently running Backlight 2.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Since upgrading to BL2, I just noticed that many albums are now displayed without graphics.  The information is there, but as links, not images or formatted text.  A typical link is www.photographs-now.com/photo-now-backlight/clubs/001-arizona-bmw-z-series-club/020-ajo-2015.

The standard galleries (under the Gallery menu item) seem to work.  The issue is with both Chrome and Firefox on Android 9.

Here is a screen capture

Any ideas?  I have not modified the site recently...

Thanks,

Just noted that the link to the site does not open the specific page.  To get to an example page, go to www.photographs-now.com. select "Clubs" then "Arizona BMW Z-Series Club" then "Ajo Drive March 2016" (the third image).

When I upgraded to Backlight2 (from Backlight), the email send from the Contact Form is not sent.  I get the following information, but the email is not received.

to: web@photographs-now.com
subject: Test Message
message:

headers:

My settings are

Changing the port to 80 also does not send the email. 

If I change to smpt,

Email Configuration

SMTP Username     info@photographs-now.com

produces the following error

Something went wrong

fsockopen(): unable to connect to none://smtpout.secureserver.net:3535 (Unable to find the socket transport "none" - did you forget to enable it when you configured PHP?) in SMTP.php on line 125

Changing the port yields the same message (:25 rather than :3535).

I am able to send an email to web@photographs-now.com from Thunderbird (using the same settings) with no issue.  My hosting provider has indicated that the parameters that I am using are correct.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

PS  I had no issues with the Contact Form in Backlight

I finally upgraded from Backlight to Backlight2 this weekend.

My main gallery page displays an image from each album set.  Upon upgrading from Backlight to Backlight2, the albums which are designated as "hidden," are still displayed.  These are albums that display panoramic images.  The settings for these albums are noted here:

Features

    Enable Maps: Yes
    Enable Password: No
    Display Breadcrumbs: Yes
    Breadcrumb: Route 66 Pano Selector
    Hide From Album Set: Yes
    Hide From Search: Yes

The website is http://caddinfo.com/photo-now-backlight/.  It is the Galleries page.  The albums in question are near the bottom of the page with the designation "... Pano Selector."

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Thanks

Under CE4, I had a php script (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1tWYeS7 … sp=sharing), wherein I had set up some conditional code to place StatCounter icons (with associated code to track users) on specific pages of the site.

A section of the CE4 code is below.  The conditional statements selected the various pages (HOME, GALLERIES. etc.).  What would the equivalent Backlight if / elseif code be?  The code listed for StatCounter is provided by StatCounter.  I will probably use Rod's Tips & Tricks code for a Custom Footer and would like to place the Statcounter icon on the right side, with the social icons to its left, and the Copyright notices and TTG citation on the left.

Any help would be appreciated

Is there a simple way to place the download, gps and maybe other icons/buttons (as needed) on the top of the single image display next to the shopping cart icon?

I presume that there is a setting to change the length of the pallet.  Where would I find that setting?

CE4 placed the download icon on each thumbnail.  Backlight places it under the right-most icon in photo display mode.  Is it possible to add the download icon to each thumbnail again?
