Hello,
I downloaded and activated the Album Cover Browser so as to be able to add thumbnails to albums.
When I select a picture I get the message
%7B%22result%22%3A%22success%22%2C%22location%22%3A%22%5C/gallery%5C/index.php%5C/2001%5C/2001Meran%22%7D
What might I miss?
Regards

I have never used the module before but does other JSON functions work properly?

Actually I can't get to assign a picture to any album even if it is a picture from within the same album. The message indicates success (picturex is now the "Titlebild" (german for cover picure?) of album x). I can't assume that this obviously very common procedure might not work. On the other hand I haven't got a clue in what other way to proceed but to select the picture from within the options drop-down menu.

Odd. Works here with G3.0.9 and Greydragon 4.

I used to get that sort of garbled message, but afterwards I found that it had in fact worked, in that it had assigned the selected thumb to the specified album. It's a bit cleaner in operation now, which I think occurred after the upgrade to 3.0.9.

Its a very handy module to use in conjunction with the Tag Albums module.

got login info to "see" the issue. Nothing to do with the album cover browser module.
Its a drupal issue that they want to secury your files
http://galleryproject.org/node/96771
edit your .htaccess file
add:

<FilesMatch ".album.jpg">
Order deny,allow
</FilesMatch>

Cheers!

I adapted the .htaccess-file of gallery3 accordingly and now things work.
Thanks a lot...
