First, Thank you very much, Daniel, that's it. I pasted the code into my custom.css and everything looks as expected.
@Rod:
initially i was about to update on to backlight 2. After migrating i realized, that there is this bug regarding Ocapi-based templates and the custom.css file. The css-file is being ignored. there was a post here on the support forum were this issue was discussed and someone sayed, (you, Rod?) there is no way to migrate ocapi to pangolin. They are different and you have to rebuilt everything in pangolin first. Thats what I have done (After restoring my site). I rebuilt my ocapi-templates and moved over to pangolin. now, I am read to update to backlight 2 and hopefullly everything turns out right ;-)
Or do you suggest to update to Backlight 1.2.3 first? And if so, where can I download it? I did not found it in my account ...
Thank you
Rolf
Hello.
After migrating my templates from ocapi to pangolin unordered nested lists are rendered different.
Please see following samples:
(Same content formated as markdown in ocapi and pangolin)
https://koerner-kunst.de/?page=pangolin
https://koerner-kunst.de/?page=ocapi
In ocapi everything is fine.
In pangolin there are no indents and when viewed on devices with the window smaller than 400px the bullet points are far to near to the left edge.
I am using backlight 1.2.2
I tested this on my cellphone and on my macbook Pro with chrome.
What is going wrong here?
How can I fix this?
Thank You in advance.
Best Wishes and Happy New Year to everybody
Rolf
Hi, i am running version 1.1.1
how is the process for directly updating to 1.2.2 ?
my page url is koerner-kunst.de
Thank you very much for your help.
Rolf
ok, I understand. Is there a different way to achieve it?
I am about to relaunch a clients website from TTG CE4 to Backlight.
In TTG CE4 a little hack implemented the mailto functionality inside each image caption.
please have a look at the following page:
http://www.koerner-kunst.de/galleries/d … single.php
Below the image you see the mailto named: "Anfragen zum Bild"
This was implemented by changing template_single.php in ttg-be/templates/gallery/final-gallery/
<?php } ?><?php if ($photo->hasMetadata('image_caption')) { ?> <?php echo $photo->getMetadata('image_caption'); ?><?php } ?> <a href="mailto:koerner.kunst.tmp@gmx.de?Subject=Anfragen zum Bild: <?php echo urlencode(ALBUMTITLE)?>&Body=<?php echo urlencode(ALBUMTITLE)?>%0D%0A<?php echo urlencode(CURRENTPAGEURL)?>" target="_blank" title="Anfragen zum Bild"><strong>Anfragen zum Bild</strong></a></p>Now I am trying to do the same in backlight, but I am stucked.
Any suggestion how to implement the same in backlight?
Thank you very much.
Rolf
Hi Rod,
thank you for asking.
Yep, everything is up and running ...
The problem was a missing curly bracket in my custom stylesheet.
Cheers Rolf
Ich habe den Fehler gefunden. Ich hatte einen Fehler in meinem Custom Style sheet. Dort fehlte doch tatsächlich nur eine geschwungene Klammer. Nachdem ich diese eingefügt habe, funktioniert nun alles korrekt.
Lieben Dank für Deine Hilfe, Rainer!
Rolf
ps. Du schreibst:
- Other Advanced Options - Disable Navigation Styling and Scripting -
Die hast Du auf - on - gesetzt. Schalte auf - off - und es müsste klappen.
wie bzw. wo kannst Du das sehen?
nein, ich habe die Navigation über Backlight > Designer > Menu Sets angelegt.
Hallo Rainer,
danke für deine Hilfe. Ich habe die Einstellungen überprüft, alle Breakpoints stehen auf 992px. Das Problem ist, die Navigation verschindet gar nicht, egal wie klein das Browserfenster wird.
Bei Deiner Site ist alles ok und die Navigation verschwindet ab einer bestimmten Stelle.
Hm, das ist es nicht ….
thank you for your help. I checked the Breakpoint settings under „Page Layout“. They are set at 992px. so, that seems to be ok.
The problem is, my navigation never disapper regardless how small the browser window is.
I checked your site. Everything is working like expected and the navigation disappears at a certain point.
Rolf
First: Thank you for Backlight. It is a great tool! So much easier to work with.
My Problem:
The navigation bar does not disappears on smaller window sizes. When I reduce the screen size the hamburger navigation appears but the standard navigation stays in place. Normaly it shoud disappear.
my site: http://neu.koerner-kunst.de
Thank you for help
Cheers Rolf
Rod, i made it! Its working! Finally.
I was thinking your answer over and over and then it was clear. "Template" is the word for a place where i define something that than is being used by e.g. an album to behave in a certain way. im my case to be password protected. I only used one Gallery template and this couldn't work.
ok. the solution was to create another template, in fact i copied the existing one, but on this template i switched on password protection. i exported this template to the web server, put it inside ttg-be/templates/gallery an than selected this template in LR/Publisher/Edit Album. and Voila - for the first time I was able to activate pwd-protection for this album - great.
thank you a lot for your help!
Rolf
btw. I had to check authentication in publishers settings and save it again before i was able to see my new template ...
6) As well I can’t select the newly created Template in Auto Index inside „Edit Album“. It is not there.
Why can’t i select the AutoIndex Template in Edit Album?
autoindex is used to create templates for album sets, not albums. You can't select an autoindex template for an album, it needs a gallery template.
If you need to create another index (album set) inside of the Kunden index, then create an album set and choose the kunden template.
Thank you rod, i think i now do understand the idea of the auto index. But - my problem is still there. How to password protect an album or as i wrote in my answer to Michael several albums inside a gallery each with its own login? Why can't I not simply go to an existing album and activate this enable password checkbox?
Hello Rolf,
did You check "Enable Password Protection" in Lightroom?
It's located in section "Ausgabeeinstellungen"
Hello Michael, thank you for your fast response.
Yes, i did, but it protects the entire gallery, but i want to protect an album inside a gallery.
Concerning the other problem. Not sure how You got it. Tabs and spaces in connection with the proportional typeface may distort the levels in Your post. My directory structure is
ttg-be/templates/gallery
ttg-be/templates/autoindex
mine is the same
The autoindex templates can be edited when an album set is right-clicked "Album Set bearbeiten", while gallery templates require right-clicking on an album "Album bearbeiten"
ah, i see. I get the idea. But that is not what i want. as said before i only want to protect one album or generally speaking all albums inside an index each with its own login.
Another problem: i generated an Album set , thought i have checked "Enable password". But i forget to do so. I uploaded the new set and realized that i forget to enable it. When coming back to LR to activate it he Checkbox is grayed out again! Do you know how to activate the checkbox again?
Thank you and Gruß aus Rheinbach,
Rolf
Hello everybody, I am stuck. I read all the documentations and posting here in the forum but i did not find the solution.
what i like to have:
I like to have two galleries on my site. One Gallery is for everybody to see and one is for my customers. The customers gallery can be accessed by clicking on „Kunden“. Each of these Albums should be password protected.
my site is: http://test.rolfskinderfotos.de
I found Rod’s explanations on http://ttg-tips-and-tricks.barbeephoto. … enu-items/ and followed them.
what i have done:
1) I used CE4 Pages and CE4 Gallery to build my site and everything is up and running.
2) To have the customers gallery I created a new gallery using auto CE4 Auto Index plugin. I exported and uploaded the entire directory named "kunden" to /ttg-be/autoindex/ as well as to /kunden - as explained in Rod's Tips & Tricks
3) In LR i created a new instance of CE4 Publisher. The Publisher settings are ok. The settings for the API Details are: http://test.rolfskinderfotos.de/ttg-be/publisher and the „Check Authentication“ is working as well.
4) inside publisher i created a new album with a bunch of images
5) i published this album and it is showing up under „Kunden“ BUT i can’t password protect this album in "Edit Album" because it is grayed out.
6) As well I can’t select the newly created Template in Auto Index inside „Edit Album“. It is not there.
My Question:
How to password protect an album?
Why can’t i select the AutoIndex Template in Edit Album?
My server directory structure is:
/root/
/fragments/
/galleries/
/kunden/kunde-1
/lib/
/photos/
/phplugins/
/thumbnails/
/ttg-be/templates/gallery/
/autoindex/kunden/
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you for your help!
