is there a way to get rid or customize the weird borders and boxes around the Enter or Caption Field?
is there a way to get rid of the flipping thumbnail in the upper right corner?
thank you

you'd need to use custom css
Use a tool like Firebug or your browser's inspector to identify the selectors you need to change.
If you need help with the css, just post back.

thank you Rod for the hints - it helped a little bit, like changing the border style of the flipping thumbnail or the "Link" button but I am not so much into css and php to get rid of the whole flipping thing on my own. I will ask someone experienced with that locally. I didnt even manage to verify that my custom.css is working properly.. no red background at all.
May be you still want to have a look: http://www.jehnichen.eu/mj150310test/galleries.php
and give me a simple way to eliminate the flipping thing completely...
thank you very much

For hiding the thumbnails, you can use
#ttg_thumbs {
display: none;
}For the border on the enter link, use
.ttg_link {
border: 4px solid #FFFFFF;
}And just change the size and color to what you need.

you could also give the borders a radius if you like a less abrupt look
.ttg_link {
border: 4px solid #FFFFFF;
border-radius: 20px;

great-thank you-worked !
I changed it in "galleries.php" of my album but one last question:
where to change this if I want it to be applied on any gallery in the future without going into every single galleries "galleries.php"?

Galleries.php?
Do you mean that you went into the exported page that contains the flip gallery?
If so, your changes will get overwritten if you need to export Pages again.
You should make any custom css changes in the custom.css file.

You'll need to first enable phplugins

yes i went into the exported page... because i could not get the custom.css thing running.
I followed the instructions:- created a folder "ttg-phplugins" in the root of my website - copied the content of "phplugins-sample" into it - deleted the two lines to enable custom-stylesheet - created a Gallery out of CE4 - set the tick at "enable PGPlugins" and filled in the path to my ttg-phplugins Folder (/home/debian1/webserver/www/ttg-phplugins) - i left "custom.css" as it was.
Expected to get a red background in order to verify that it works properly - but it did not: the gallery was unaffected of it.
Then I deleted the content of custom.css and replaced it by
"#ttg_thumbs {
display: none;
}"
but it did not change anything.
Any Idea?
Dear Rod, if you feel that it doesnt make sense to keep on trying because i am too unexperienced with CSS/PHP you might be right - and i understand if you close the case.
Thank you

meanwhile i got custom.css to work - do not know how. (maybe it is not allowed to rename the phplugins Folder..
but now it works - background is red (which i will change) and the flipping thing is turned off! - Thank you for your help!

Hi Martin,
The problem is the name of the folder: ttg-phplugins. The documentation tells you to change it from phplugings-sample to phplugins
in the phplugins.php file, the url to the custom.css file assumes that the name of the phplugins folder is 'phplugins'. you'll notice that the url to custom.css is:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/phplugins/css/custom.css" />So instead of changing the server path in all your plug-ins you can just change the url to custom.css:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/ttg-phplugins/css/custom.css" />don't worry about asking questions!
