Community @ The Turning Gate

I've done a little more experimenting with Galleria 2.0.1:

Display Image Titles OFF; Display Image Captions OFF -- Titles and Captions are NOT displayed

Display Image Titles OFF; Display Image Captions ON -- Titles and Captions are BOTH displayed

Display Image Titles ON; Display Image Captions OFF -- Titles and Captions are BOTH displayed

HOWEVER... Titles ALWAYS shows file name (with extension), even when field is blank or when other Tokens are used.  For example, I enter {Caption} in the Title field and the file name (with extension) is displayed.  In other words, Display Image Titles can't be turned off (except when Captions is also turned off), and when it is on, it always displays file name (with extension).

Ben... I hope this helps you find out what's going on.

Thank you.

Ben,

Favicon now working.  Thank you.

I've done a little work in LR and BL2, adding and changing a few images and rearranging a menu item.  It's all working perfectly.  The new/modified BL2 Dashboard interface is clear and super-easy to navigate.

As always, thanks to you and Matt for a great product.

Hi Ben,

OK on the favicon issue.  Thanks for explaining.

All the pages are loading properly now, thanks to your enabling public_html/.htaccess.  Is it likely this permission issue will come up again when you make updates available?  If this happens again, is level 755 likely to work for all BL folders and files?  (It looks like .htaccess is 644 and all folders are 755.  I didn't check files within the folders.)

One more issue.... three of my pages should be showing photo captions, but they aren't.  Do I need to republish from LR?  (I have not yet installed the new publisher to LR.)

Here are the pages that should show the option to turn on captions:

Thanks again!

Ben,

It's almost all good now.

My favicon seems to have disappeared.  I don't remember how to restore that, and what I found in the docs didn't help.  Please advise.

A few of my pages aren't loading--the pages without galleries:

http://www.johnblaustein.com/about-the-book/
http://www.johnblaustein.com/?page=buy-the-book (why the "?page=" in this URL?)

I visited each page in BL per the install docs, but still these issues.

John

Ben,

Still problems....

I was able to log into the installer and BL installed successfully.  When I clicked Continue to BL, I get this error:

Something went wrong
Unexpected error: Undefined index: language_code in 95-include-2.0.0-1-203-menu_63.view.template on line 14

If I go to johnblaustein.com, I get this error (which you'll see if you try it):

Something went wrong
Unable to find index page.

Now what?

John

Ben,

Thank you for the instant reply.

No luck.  The .htaccess and index.php files were already in the correct locations, but I transferred them again.  FileZilla shows the date and file size at matching--your unzipped folder and on the server.  It's still not working.

Any other suggestions?

Note:  I have saved copies of my Custom, Data and Galleries folders on my hard drive.  Is there a way I can "start over?"

John

Perhaps those of us existing customers who are thrilled to be using Backlight 1 and have taken major advantage of the "free" support should pay a premium for the upgrade to Backlight 2.  Matt and Ben can offer discounts to attract new customers.

*** No, I'm not really serious, but I am trying to be sensitive to the fact that The Turning Gate is a very small company--it's no Adobe--and that the prices are already very fair.  And if you've used this support forum, you know that help is usually only a few hours away.

John

Thanks, Rod.

Everything is now working fine!

When I look at public_html/backlight/modules/pangolin-theater, it shows the following:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<module xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="../../designer/module.xsd">
    <productSuite>pangolin</productSuite>
    <identifier>pangolin-theater</identifier>
    <name>Pangolin Theater</name>
    <type>album</type>
    <version>1.2.5</version>
</module>

That looks to be version 1.2.5.  It's working, so I won't change a thing.

Thanks again for your help.  (And Daniel.)

John

I have installed Backlight 1.2.3.5 per the readme.txt file.  I also installed TTG-Publisher.lrplugin version 3.2.3.1.

So far, so good -- everything is working correctly.

By the way, the Dashboard page only shows 1.2.3.

Thank you for the help!

John

Thanks, Rod....

I appreciate that Ben keeps Backlight compatible with the changes that our web hosts throw at us.  (I'm a novice and I don't even know what PHP and MySQL are, so I'm extra happy that all of you do!)

John
