That's something worth to remember!

Hi Philippe,

Since your images have all the same size, following few lines of CSS will do the job:

div#slideshow {
    max-width: 640px;
    margin-right: auto;
    margin-left: auto;
}

Just add them to the <style> section of the slideshow code that you have in the Main Copy area.

Re margin: you mean the big white space between the slideshow and the footer? This is the same on your other pages (e.g., contact). I don't remember if this is something that can be changed in the Backlight admin panels.

Indeed, that's ugly. In CE4, the Slug was used for ordering. This has changed now with Backlight where the Album Title is used. I definitely prefer the CE4 implementation!

Ben, is there a reason for this change or is this something that just creeped in? Thanks!

Looks great, Ken! And the gallery doesn't show for me as a regular visitor.

Thanks, Rod. And once phplugins supports the Album Copy area, the slideshow can be simply updated from Lightroom. Well, at that point, we might have native slideshow support anyway...

Hi Ken,

I was able to create a slideshow with Backlight by putting a view lines of html code into the page copy area. But it is a very limited slideshow. I am certain that the successor to CE4 Stage will provide many more features and will be easier to setup and use.

Please give me a few days to document it and set up an example site.

Hi Ken,

Yes, this is the process I would follow.

1) Yes. Another option would be using a separate subdomain
2) They work side-by-side since you don't use the same file
3) First, please make a backup of your CE4 site. Backlight contains some migration features to reuse galleries and cart settings. If you want to take advantage of this, don't delete the gallery and ttg-be folders.

Hi Ken, even if you have to log-in with your PayPal credentials, you always can select a credit card as an alternative payment method.

I think that's something for Matt to look at. On my Mac, the gallery description works in Safari, but not in Chrome.

In the album http://test.vuedailleurs.com/galleries/02-cambodge/, when I add following CSS code I get the description to show

figcaption {
    width: 50%;
}

Single page view seems to be sharper with Safari than with Chrome too.

This exists. Please have a look at the Backlight Tips&Tricks Forum.

Please contact your webhost to enable the PDO and SQlite PHP modules for your site.

The .htaccess file you want to use is in the root of the zip file. To see hidden files (that's files that start with a '.') in Cyberduck, follow these instructions: http://www.simplehelp.net/2010/04/21/ho … cyberduck/.
