No you should just need to change the site root in the settings. instead of http://mysite.com it should be https://mysite.com

#78 Re: CE4 Pages » SSL in CE4 » 2017-10-20 05:51:44

Looking at the source it looks like your site root is still http:// and not https://

#79 Re: CE4 Pages » SSL in CE4 » 2017-10-20 05:31:31

No, that shouldn't be necessary. I know folks have done it with their CE4 sites, I just don't have one of my own to play with. What is your site URL?

#81 Re: CE4 Pages » SSL in CE4 » 2017-10-20 05:18:20

CE4 Gallery > Output Settings > Shopping Cart Integration: Cart URL

If you look at your page source you might see where it is referencing http assets, you cannot include them in an https page. I converted my site to https but it is a Backlight site so I don't have my CE4 site any more to look at.

#82 Re: CE4 Pages » SSL in CE4 » 2017-10-20 05:07:40

You have to change cart too if you use that.

#83 Re: Backlight Support » Need Lightroom Subscription Publishing Alternative » 2017-10-20 03:24:47

I keep my Lightroom folder with the catalog and plugins, etc, on Dropbox so I can access the same catalog from different computers. Doesn't allow me to share the source images but I can see the image previews from all.

#84 Re: General » To Lightroom or not to Lightroom » 2017-10-19 19:16:06

I like Lightroom and haven't seen anything that offers the range of features it has. The only way I'd drop it is if they went cloud only and discontinued the classic version.

#85 Re: Backlight Support » New LightRoom CC Oct 2018 » 2017-10-19 03:41:26

Lightroom Classic is the old Lightroom CC and still supports plugins. Lightroom CC is now cloud only.

#86 Re: Backlight Support » WordPress editor always forced to text view » 2017-10-18 23:02:35

I can confirm that Backlight is child theme friendly, I am a wordpress idiot and even I could easily implement a child theme on my site. ;-)

#87 Re: Backlight Support » Sub-domain problems » 2017-10-15 07:06:20

You probably know more than I do; all I know is that your 'galleries' directory and 'backlight' directory need to be at the same level and directly off the 'root' of your domain or subdomain. Beyond that I'm out of ideas.

#89 Re: Backlight Support » Sub-domain problems » 2017-10-15 05:43:08

Your galleries link is pointing to http://events.simonjameswilliams.co.uk/ … galleries/ so I expect your site URL in backlight is pointing to the wrong place, it should be pointing at your subdomain.

Edit to add: your site URL should be  http://events.simonjameswilliams.co.uk

#91 Re: Backlight Support » Gallery Set Hierarchy match Folder Hierarchy in Catalog? » 2017-10-08 22:25:41

You might take a look at smart albums. I don't have a lot of experience with them but you can define rules on what is included and any photo that meets the criteria will be in the album. You could then use metadata contents, for example, to automate inclusion or exclusion in your galleries.

#92 Re: Backlight Support » Restrict metadata published with images? » 2017-10-07 06:18:57

I believe the 'metadata' used by BL is stored in the BL database, which is why you need to re upload files if you want different metadata items to be displayed. BL doesn't read it directly from the photos themselves.

#93 Re: Backlight Support » Gallery Size on Website » 2017-10-05 21:28:01

The Lightroom publisher uses the Backlight template to determine sizes.

#94 Re: Backlight Support » Gallery Size on Website » 2017-10-05 19:17:14

The online image sizes and quality are specified by you in your album templates under Image Renditions.

#95 Re: Backlight Support » Gallery Set Thumbnail... » 2017-10-04 05:09:13

Cool, I had forgotten about manually creating the thumbnails.

#96 Re: Backlight Support » Slideshow on Home Page » 2017-10-04 04:30:07

Mine had a very simple slideshow on the home page. You can also use theater for YouTube, Vimeo and html5 video.

#97 Re: Backlight Support » Gallery Set Thumbnail... » 2017-10-04 02:53:55

I don't think random works for album sets, you have to select an image.

#98 Re: Backlight Support » Slideshow on Home Page » 2017-10-04 02:51:18

I forgot to mention you will need the theater addon to create the slide show template.

#99 Re: Backlight Support » Gallery Set Thumbnail... » 2017-10-04 02:02:32

When you edit your album set in LR you can select a cover image under Base Settings and that will be your thumbnail.

#100 Re: Backlight Support » Slideshow on Home Page » 2017-10-04 02:00:51

Create an album of the images you want, make it hidden and upload it. Then create a home page using a template and under backlight > designer >pages you can insert the album in your home page.
