#1026 Re: Backlight Support » sitemap » 2016-11-04 07:29:23
This is something for Ben to look at. Seems like an .htaccess issue to me.
The URL for your single-page gallery is http://phoneographie.com/galleries/01-c … mbodge-001, but the link to your next image is http://phoneographie.com/galleries/01-c … single.php, which does not exist. Coming from the gallery page, the second image is at http://phoneographie.com/galleries/01-c … mbodge-002.

In the upcoming Backlight version 1.1, this code can be inserted using phplugins. I think this will be much better than trying to insert html using page copy.
#1028 Re: Backlight Showcase » It is my sad regret » 2016-11-04 02:23:32
This looks good, Philippe!
I would keep the test-site data alive so you can use it as a testbed if you want to implement some of the upcoming Backlight enhancements.

Daniel thank you, it works fine!

Something in your setup seems to be off.... When I click on the "pictographs" link, it goes to "http://www.wtgphotos.com/tag/pictographs/" instead of http://www.wtgphotos.com/blog/tag/pictographs/
Did WP work with the default theme? Is this a new WP installation? If yes, I would dump it and start from scratch. First get it up and working with the default theme, then add the Backlight theme.
But there is something else: the 'ionCube Loader' error shows up on your regular pages as well. Did you add ionCube to your installation?
#1031 Re: Backlight Support » Blog, following previous article Articles Links » 2016-11-02 10:15:37
Yeah, it doesn't make sense to have it on your blog roll. Maybe a bit css magic?
.blog .adjacent-posts-links {
display: none;
}But I think that's something that will be fixed in a future update.
#1032 Re: Backlight Showcase » Migration CE4 > Backlight complete » 2016-11-02 01:15:15
How did you create the "Featured Galleries" ?
"Featured Galleries" is just another top-level gallery. You create them by using a new Publisher Service and select a different top-level directory.
#1033 Re: Backlight Showcase » Migration from CE4 to Backlight completed » 2016-11-02 01:11:09
Or a simple code change: Just define the width of the icons as 24% instead of 100px. Then the icons just scale enough to fit the smaller screen.
Rod's proposal is nicer, but this gets the job done in a few seconds.
#1034 Re: Backlight Support » Is it possible to link to a html page from an album? » 2016-11-02 00:01:52
Thanks Daniel,
Just back after bank holiday weekend so sorry for the delayed reply.
Thanks for your website link. It looks good. I like how your Greeting card looks like a top-level gallery but when clicked it takes the user to greeting card info. How did you achieve that? Is it using theatre module?
Many thanks,
Deirdre
Hi Deirdre,
''/shop'' is a top-level gallery that contains several galleries. All of them have 'Hide from AlbumSet' selected. The image that links to the greeting-cards info is just a plain html link. Once I have designed all 'galleries', I will change the look and disable 'Hide from AlbumSet'.
''/shop/greeting-cards'' is a Theater module, but it could be just a gallery as well. So you could use this to add an FAQ to your gallery-set. Just don't add any images. It defeats the purpose of being a gallery, but this way you can have a text page next to the image galleries.
Hope this helps!
#1035 Re: Backlight Support » Wordpress "more"-Tag » 2016-11-01 23:52:14
Custom css can do this. Maybe something like this:
.blog article {
border-bottom: 1px solid black;
margin-bottom: 20px !important;
}#1036 Re: Backlight Support » Updating Publisher in LR... problem. » 2016-11-01 15:02:57
Lr Publisher is not very smart. I always select Leave As-Is and then republish the gallery that needs to be republished. If you only changed the thumbnail dimension, don't forget to select "Publish thumbnails without updating other renditions".
Since everything is marked to re-publish, you will need to do this eventually. I would set "Publish metadata only..." to get all the galleries into "published" state.
#1037 Re: Backlight Support » Updated WordPress » 2016-11-01 10:38:28
I removed my previous post as I made a failure with the installation... and I even had triple checked that I did the right thing.... next/prev links are working for me.
#1038 Re: Backlight Support » Theater on mobile devices? » 2016-11-01 10:00:21
Even on my desktop, I don't see a "Pearl Harbor" gallery in http://www.markandmichellegallery.com/g … ityscapes/.
#1039 Re: Backlight Showcase » Migration CE4 > Backlight complete » 2016-10-31 14:47:28
One of the best i've seen so far, it would be good if users could share templates etc...
Thank you, mridley.

Something like this?
Nice :-)
#1041 Re: Backlight Support » Is it possible to link to a html page from an album? » 2016-10-29 04:40:51
I don't think you can have an album entry that links to a different location. For the blog, I would just create a menu entry pointing to /blog.
But you can do this for testimonials and FAQs. Have a look at my greeting cards shop page. I created this using the Theater module. All the text is entered in Lightroom. Using the embedded slideshow is optional. The shop page is a top-level gallery and currently doesn't display the gallery since I haven't completed the other shop pages, but eventually this will come as well.
At the same time you could continue doing it as you have it on your homepage: use a dedicated menu with a custom page.
#1042 Re: Backlight Support » BL and WP - something just doesn't add up » 2016-10-29 04:29:18
Did you assign a featured image to each of your posts? This is how it looks on my blog danielleu.com/blog.
#1043 Re: Backlight Support » Something Went wrong....on line 524 » 2016-10-28 13:33:14
Hi Daniel.
Simple , I deleted everything on the server and re uploaded everything. It is possible that Filezilla miss uploaded some of the files in the first upload. I must say that once in there it is a fantastic way to build up the web site. Still exploring, but so far, i'm very impressed.
Thank you!
#1044 Re: Backlight Support » Something Went wrong....on line 524 » 2016-10-28 10:44:11
Would you mind to tell us how you solved the issue? It might help another user down the road. Thanks!
#1045 Re: Backlight Support » Lightroom Reverse Geocoding and backlight issue » 2016-10-28 05:24:57
Merci, Nico.
The first image has your custom metadata:
[thumbnails_meta01] => Voiteur, while the second one doesn't have it at all.
This looks like either a Publisher or a Lr issue. Something Ben needs to look at.
#1046 Re: Backlight Support » Lightroom Reverse Geocoding and backlight issue » 2016-10-28 01:25:36
Hi Nico, do you have an example gallery where we can compare the two images, one with 'reverse geocoding' and one where you added the info by hand'? Thanks!
#1047 Re: Backlight Showcase » Migration CE4 > Backlight complete » 2016-10-21 14:40:52
Thank you, Matt & Jon.
#1048 Re: Backlight Support » Album templates » 2016-10-21 14:38:21
Hi Doug and Daniel,
Did your CE4 templates contain numbers within the names?
You shouldn't have needed to have made all of those manual changes.
Ben
Yes, the template name was gallery-2015. This wasn't a big deal and I didn't even consider it to be a bug. Otherwise I would have notified you.
#1049 Re: Backlight Support » Album templates » 2016-10-20 23:51:32
Hi Daniel, was that a while back? The assigned template propagates to the album in Publisher when edited.
The previous behaviour was to use the template assigned in LR, which as you found could have been the old template if the album wasn't edited after reassignment on the server. I changed it a while ago to instead use the template in the database on the server.
Hi Ben,
Not that long ago. I noticed it when I migrated my site over to Background with Publisher 3.0.5.
#1050 Re: Backlight Support » Album templates » 2016-10-20 16:05:48
We have a page for assigning templates for all albums and sets.
Visit Backlight > Publisher > Top-Level Galleries, then click on Albums followed by Assign Templates.
I used this in the past... but the moment I wanted to publish, I first had to open the Album Settings in order to avoid a publisher error message. Don't remember what it said.
