Hello,
I was wondering if there was any way to include gallery 3 into a websites theme/template. I've built a site from scratch and the gallery page includes the header, menubar, and footer but as the main body I would like gallery 3. The pages are built using php so the gallery page consists of php include and require commands, is there any way to include or require gallery 3 as the body of a page?

That is exactly what I was looking for! One more question though, I uploaded the contents of the download to a gallery folder in my website, the gallery loads but its the same exact gallery as the example, how do I set my own images/videos up? Do I need a database like the original gallery 3 or do I actually have to have gallery 3 installed still?

I'm not following your question. Can you rephrase.

Extracted the files from the G3 Rest download (the link you gave me above) and stuck them into a folder named gallery on my server. I was only able to load the example pictures, how do I load my own pictures using G3 Rest? Do I have to have Gallery 3 installed and just simply point G3 Rest towards the install?

You will need to edit the file to your install find:

        <script>
            $(document).ready(function(){
                $('#gallery').g3rest({
                    url: 'http://www.flashyourweb.com/gallery3/rest',
                    code: 'http://www.flashyourweb.com/gallery2/embed_samples/'
                });
            });
        </script>

edit the url and code to your install.

I'm still having issues, what exactly is the url line supposed to point at and what is the code line supposed to point at? i tried pointing the code line to the code folder that was uploaded with rest and i set the url line to point to the gallery3 folder but it still wouldn't load any images.

the rest code is located in cphoto/gallery/ and gallery3 is installed in cphoto/gallery/gallery3/

Quote:
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#gallery').g3rest({
url: 'http://www.tyharotest.x10host.com/cphoto/gallery/gallery3/',
code: 'http://www.tyharotest.x10host.com/cphoto/gallery/code/'
});
});
</script>

Do you have the rest module activated?
have you configured the REST data to be accessed by the guest user?

I didn't realize there was a module. I just activated the REST API Module but how do I configure the REST data to be accessed by the guest users?

Admin - settings - Advanced 'allow_guest_access' set to 1

Then as a guest user Check if the REST API is working by entering the following URL in your web browser:
http://www.tyharotest.x10host.com/cphoto/gallery/gallery3/index.php/rest

In response you should get a blank page with two square brackets [] in the upper left corner, and the URL in your address bar should remain unchanged (to make sure no additional redirects take place).
