Flip gallery as home page

It's been a loooong time since this thread :-) I'm starting up again with CE4 and setting up a site that I want structured much line Matthew"s one at campagnapictures.com, with a WP installation in a /blog/ subfolder. My site is at www.jfschmitz.com,.

I noticed on Matthews' site that the flip gallery is located in the root folder (or at least appears to be located there). Can I simply generate the needed files with CE4 Stage and drop them in the root of my site, or do you put them in some sub-folder and then use redirects to make it appear as if they are in the root?

PS: BTW, enjoying a lot CE4 :-)

Re: Flip gallery as home page

Thanks, glad to hear.

I'm using CE4 Pages for my Home and Galleries pages, WordPress in my /blog folder. It's CE4 Pages that allows me to use the gallery as my Home page.

Re: Flip gallery as home page

OK. Though you were using WP for the blog *and* the menues because I saw your "Bio & Contact" is located under /blog/bio & Contact" :-)

I'll give it a shot this week. Just to be sure: the menus on your site are from Wordpress (using "Step 7: Imbue Your Menu with the Power of MAGIC" (I guess so), or from CE4 Pages?

Thanks!

From WordPress, using the technique described on that linked page, yes.

My Bio & Contact page is running through WordPress, so I am not using the CE4 Pages "Contact" features.

Re: Flip gallery as home page

In  the Wiki page you write "Using your FTP client and a plain text-editor, open the /galleries/phplugins/phplugins.php file for editing." Is that correct? I have phpplugins in the root, not under /galleries/ ...

Re: Flip gallery as home page

you can put it anywhere you like. In the tutorial, Matt is placing it in the Galleries folder simply because when he created that autoindex, he enable phplugins and the folder was created there.
