Have been in touch with Derek at Fotomoto, and seems the "https" fix I instigated is not the proper one. It "seems" to work, but other security issues come up. So I am still at sea on this. I will continue to try to solve it.
In brief, upgrading (if that is the proper word) to a SSL enabled site has caused the issue with fotomoto enabled galleries not operating properly. Looking for the solution, either from fotomoto or TTG. Whatever issue this is, I believe, has caised #2 and #4 in my original post. #3 is solved (thanks, Rod) and #1 is some kind of strange browser behavior that is probably not a real issue.
Rod; Was able to go in and edit the CE-4 Gallery.lrtemplate file. Found the url to the fotomoto widget in... /lib/html/tail.html. Changed it to https. Now galleries created are functional with fotomoto widget. So that saves the problem. At least for those galleries created henceforth.
Thanks for the help. Still not sure about the Chrome/browser issues with icons not showing up - but maybe that will just sort itself out. I hope.
Rod - OK changing the fotomoto url to https on those files did the trick. Thank you for the direction.
Now, sometimes I create multiple galleries, but not through publisher. I suppose I have to go into each index, mobile and single php file in the gallery and change this? Or can I just change the template (index, mobile and single) files? I am thinking the former, but this is pretty unworkable if there are a lot of images. In such is the case I guess I have to use Publisher for all fotomoto enabled galleries. Unless there becomes a way to set this in the Web Gallery interface. But since CE4 is deprecated, that probably won't happen.
On Chrome - cleared the cache several times - still nothing appears.
I'll try the change on the php files you mentioned.
I see now they are showing up on Safari, but not on Chrome. ????
Charlie - yes, I just picked that up as well. I see my https site is blocking the "insecure" script references. I think I can fix the one on my site OK. AS for the fotomoto script, it is my understanding this is laid in by the TTG Gallery creation. So to fix it, does that mean I have to do this individually after-the-fact on all Galleries created by CE4? Or, more accurately if using Publisher, the template galleries I use?
Checked the Fotomoto support forums and found this thread: https://getsatisfaction.com/fotomoto/to … q56itug5jo
Since the code is placed into the page through Turning Gate Gallery, I assume it is the latest code, and does allow https.
Just checked Web Inspector on Safari and the Fotomoto script is flagged with this: Can't find variable: fotomoto_ready
Any thoughts on what is going on there?
On #1 - I have tried it on Safari (main browser I use) and Chrome, and I don't see them. Hmmm. What browser are you seeing them on. Can you send me a screen shot?
On #4 - I'll check with Fotomoto regarding the https issue. Hope that is not the case. I'll try to find out and report back.
Rod - Thanks for the solution to #3. I'll fix that. Regarding #1 and #4 here is the URL to problem album: https://wheelerimaging.com/printgalleries/fine-art/
I am just using Publisher/Gallery to output as independent pages (which I link to from my main site) , that is not in conjunction with Pages or Auto-Index.
Ben - I will email you with requested info.
Thx
Using CE4 Gallery with Publisher. Several issues I am having. Any insight into solving them would be appreciated
1) Social Media icons (Instagram and Linked In) are not showing up on published gallery. They are set in the Template gallery I am using. Why not?
2) When i click on thumbnail - and go to large image - I get this thread at bottom: OK. The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request. Please contact the server administrator, [no address given] and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error. More information about this error may be available in the server error log. What is going on there?
3) I would like to NOT have the name of the album thread inserted at the top of the block. Seems to automatically appear - giving the name of my folder on my server where Publisher instance places the new gallery, plus name of that particular gallery. How can I override this so I only see what I have created in my template gallery.
4) Have enabled Fotomoto integration, with my act number in place, etc. but nothing happens when buttons are clicked. Any ideas what is going on there?
I have tried to get the terms accurate above, but may have gotten some confused, so excuse my ignorance on that.
Thanks for any help
I am using LR 5.7. Perhaps this feature has been added in subsequent releases, if it indeed is a LR issue.
Matt,
Thanks - that did the trick. Much appreciated.
Rod, I am using CE4. I believe the auto-refresh feature is a Lightroom feature, not TTG, but I could be wrong. It seems to be a default feature, that one can't turn off. Matt's solution works, but it seems there out to be a toggle switch or something to turn it on or off. It is tedious to have to always wait for the refresh when making changes, sometimes minor, to the layout.
I am sure I came across the answer to this somewhere, but I can't locate it now. Is it possible to turn off the auto-update feature when making changes in the Web Module panels? I want to make a host of changes before seeing the preview.
Thanks, Rod.
Perhaps it's a browser issue. Beats me. It did appear correctly for a while, then did not. Not sure why that would be.
Yes, the image-info style was intended for the Single HTML page only.
OK, I'll make the change on the fonts; but the arial font and the color do show up - as written in the custom css.
As for the grid - yes I only want to see the text upon the hover. But it only hovers on the griditem, which does not include the text. Using inspect elements (per your very useful post on your Tips and Tricks blog) it appears to be the gridcell that needs to be highlighted on the hover. Thus the custom css I have put in. But it does not seem to give me that result.
Yes, both Headline and Caption are checked on the Highslide Set-up.
I made some changes to my custom CSS file. Initially I saw the changes were implemented, then the next day I saw they were not.
The Custom CSS file is being properly called, as there "image-info" is (partially) working. So I am not sure why these new changes are not being put into place, although they were initially.
Here is the full contents of the custom CSS file:
p.image-info {
font-family: your-font, fallback-font, arial;
font-size: 20px;
color: #9bbdd9;
text-align: center;
}
.gridcell:hover {
background-color: #DCC696;
}
.highslide-heading p,
.highslide-caption p {
font-size: 20px;
}
It is the gridcell and the highslide caption that are not being implemented, but were initially. The "image info" seems to be working OK, but the text is not centering (stays left).
It is not a cache issue, as I tested on other computers.
In CE3 there is a command for choosing a hover color in the gridcell, but not in CE4. Currently it is changing color on the griditem, but I want it to change on the gridcell. Also want to increase the font size.
Here is a link to a test page: http://wheelerimaging.com/ce4test505/
So, how do I get this to work properly? I suspect it is a cascading issue, but if so, how does one solve it?
Thanks....
Well that is strange. The folder where i sourced the template files did contain the setup.xml file as well as the index.php file - neither of which were uploaded to the server for some reason.
Anyway I just uploaded them in the proper placeand it now works! Thanks for the help Ben and Rod.
I was probably simultaneously changing permissions to 777 (no change) then back to 775 while you were trying to access it.
I used Export - never have used the Upload module (per Matt's advice).
Maybe I should create a new template gallery - a more simple one - and see if it works there. Not sure why the setp.xml file is not there. I'll check my files
I added an htaccess file to the templates folder to allow you to see what is inside it now. So should not get the 403 error. Yet, still won't show up in Publisher
Remind me what that ultimately means. I checked permissions and it (the gallery template folder) is set to 775.
Sorry - should be: http://wheelerimaging.com/ttg-be/templa … est081214a
I tried to create a new album, but it won't complete the step. I think that is because I can't choose a template. I created another template and added it to the ttg/be/templates/gallery folder but still made no difference.
Rod, here is the linkto one of the gallery templates: http://wheelerimaging/ttg-be/templates/gallery/test081214a
Thanks
Working through the installation and testing of CE4 Publisher. Have followed all directions on installation - API URL and Key have been successfully authenticated., so I know that is correct.
I created a template gallery (from CE4 Gallery) which I uploaded into /ttg-be/templates/gallery. No spaces, no uppercase, etc. in file name. There is also a folder in there called "cart-default", which I assume is only used for Cart (which I don't use).
I then click on the Default Album (under the Instance I have created) but the drop down for the templates is blank. No choices available.
Any suggestions on how to determine what I missed in this process?
Thanks, Rod. Yes, I am looking to change the styling through custom CSS. I'll try that.
Seems like the title, caption, metadata, etc. that one wants to appear on the Large Image presentation (HTML: single image) i fixed to the lower left section of the real estate, and is fixed in color and font size. Is that correct?
I can change the info appearing on the thumbnails, but I cannot find a way to adjust them on the large image.
Do I have that correct, or is there a way to do this?
