What to Purchase

buzz.osborne · 2016-03-26 06:21:44

I have a wordpress website and would like the client response gallery (CRG) and I understand that TTG-BE also needs to be installed at my root on my website?

Am I correct that nothing else needs to be installed but these 2 components?

Also how do I email the client from the admin back end or from within Lightroom, just confused as to how contacting the client actually works and how the link is sent to the client so they can see their photos and comment and notify me?

Cheers

yes, unless you want to use Publisher to create the CRG albums (and unlock some management features, see this post.)

All this is done for you. TTG-BE is the backbone and it facilitates all the emailing and feedback. You'll enter all your email info in ttg-be and your client will enter contact info when submitting feedback (unless you're also using the client management features that are enabled when using Publisher, then you create the client info- they log in make selections, and submit.)

Matt's got a demo here: http://ce4.theturninggate.net/demos/ce4 … 1-ce4-crg/

Thanks Rod but I need to use the publishing feature of Lightroom so I can create albums for clients so what components do I need to purchase then?

CE4 CRG and CE4 Publisher

And if you want a client page on your site that has links to the various albums, you'll need CE4 Autoindex too. But since you plan on using Publisher, and assuming you're going to use the client management features, you can just give one url to your clients and that will take them to a log-in page. After logging in they'll be taken to a page with links to their albums.

So unless you want a "clients" index page, there's no need for Autoindex.

And if you do need Autoindex, there's the Client Proofing Bundle: http://theturninggate.net/products/the- … ng-bundle/

great service as always, where do I get the url for the client I guess I go into TTG-BE and do what?

rod barbee · 2016-03-26 08:24:46

If you're using the client management options, the url will be yoursite.com/ttg-be/crg/
You'll use that for all clients. For example, here's mine: http://rodbarbee.com/ttg-be/crg/

see point 3 in this post: http://ce4.theturninggate.net/2015/02/0 … e-gallery/

If you're not using the client management options, the url will be wherever you've published the album. Something like:
yoursite.com/clients/client-name/

And if you're buying CRG and Publisher, then just get the bundle, as it will net you the Auto Index as well for no additional cost.
