#1 Re: CE4 Publisher » CE4 publisher: unable to find publisher. Please check ... API URL » 2016-08-25 23:45:19

Thanks.  Yes, that's what I realized.   I had the API url specified as  you suggested above and the following day it did work the following day.  (It did not work at first - something hanging around in a cache that had to age out??)   Anyway I did get a start and created a sample album.  Next will be to try the index feature with sub-albums. 

One disappointing aspect has been the very slow performance.  Moving around in the LightRoom->Layout Style options seems unusually slow.  Are there configuration options that could improve that?   I am running on a reasonably fast processor from an SSD and everything else runs quite crisply.

OK, I guess in my case (a web site hosted on LunarPages) the API url is not the same as the site URL.  I was just following the example shown in the video on the TTG CE4 web site (I suspect there is more misleading info there also, but can't determine that yet).   

I have not been able to determine my API url from any documentation I have so far.   Have posted the question to the support folks there, but they are never too swift to respond.

Thanks.  I had tried both, with and without the www. prefix, with no change in results.   I also renamed my .htaccess file temporarily but that did not change the results either.

I am trying to get back and set up CE4 working the way it is purported to function using the publisher, without success.   I have installed the ttg-be and publisher directories on a remote server and can sign on there using the admin sign-on and can access the publisher admin settings.  Yet when I go to Lightroom and try to set up the publisher using the API URL and API password I get the message that it cannot find the publisher. 

I have seen no documentation about the use of .htaccess-disabled in the publisher directory, and have tried leaving it originally named as distributed or renamed as .htaccess.   I have tried both ways, but the results are the same.  What else do I have to do to get it working?

#6 General » 2016 HTML gallery - which product(s) might be best upgrade » 2016-07-03 23:37:02

I have been doing some testing using 2016 HTML gallery but the shortfall is that the all galleries produced all use the same information.   The same site name is OK but I would like to have different collection titles and collection descriptions since I will be producing different subsets of images from one Lightroom library.  Is there a product I could upgrade to that otherwise works similar to the 2016 gallery but gives me the chance to have different collection titles and descriptions?

#7 Re: General » 2016 HTML gallery - plugin appearance on Lightroom screen » 2016-05-29 04:16:30

Thanks!  Of course, that should have been obvious to me (but wasn't at the time  :-).  Since all the other sections fit in the window, I jumped to the wrong conclusion.

I have been interested in using this plugin to create an album for sharing some photos.  However I am having trouble seeing all of the plugin "Output Settings" section on the right side of Lightroom CC.  I am running Windows 10 and the right side of the text is off the window.  The results are the same in either full screen mode or smaller window.  Are there also some control features that are cut off? 

The text I see in the Output Settings section:

For Web images, we recommend a quality setting not hi
than 76. Beyond that threshold, image file sizes increase
dramatically with negligible improvement to visual fidel
