Hello,
Using G1 import module, Comment posters seem shuffled (or maybe off by one). Using G1 import module, all Edit Album -> Album -> Resized Images are initialized to 640x640. How can I remove this (and get the same sizes as in G1)? Using G1 import module, how can I set the default album Theme? Changing all albums theme after the import directly inside the database leads to ERR_OBSOLETE_DATA error. Why, and how to make bulk changes using the database? How can I change an attribute for all albums at once? Eg, Change Resized Images sizes for all albums, and 'Recreate thumbnails and resizes' for all albums? How can I do a recursive Slideshow ? How can I change the default left tree root name (Gallery) ? Why album items list on left are so truncated (abcd...) How to get rid of the cart ? How to get rid of all these "print on..." entries ? How to get rid of the "Updated" rectangle under each album. It is unclear for me how to use mod_rewrite so as to be able to go to an album by typing http.../album1/album2 Thanks, keep up the good work ;) |

Correct. I have a start to the custom fields import code, but it is not yet finished.
That's strange. Can you provide me with links to an image with comments in your g1 and the corresponding item in g2? Thanks!
This should work. I have the same request as above - links to each.
Set the theme in the album into which you import your g1 data. g2 themes really don't have anything to do with the migration process - they will pick up the theme from the root or wherever you import into.
These are good questions. I don't know these.
I don't think there's an option for that yet, but I'm not sure.
You can change that by going to the root of your gallery2 and clicking "edit album". Go to the general tab. It's there.
Because we truncate them to fit the small space. :/
Go to Site Admin, then modules, then deactivate the under "Commerce".
Go to Site Admin, then modules, then deactivate the print services under "Commerce".
Go to Site Admin, then modules, then deactivate "New Items" under "Display".
Go to Site Admin, then modules, then activate "URL Rewrite" under "Gallery". Then, follow the directions there

Many thanks for the quick reply :D
Thanks, good to know it's in the works.
G1: http://photos.bleau.org/Videlles/v_flipflop
G2: http://g2.bleau.org/main.php?g2_view=core:ShowItem&g2_itemId=318

G2: http://g2.bleau.org/main.php?g2_view=core:ShowItem&g2_itemId=689
Maybe this deserves some warning before actually doing the import?
I guess it's not possible right now.
Yes, I did change it, and it changed everywhere (after restarting the browser) except in the default left tree root name, which is still 'Gallery'. You should see it too in the above urls (otherwise it may be some caching issue).
Yes, well, under IE6, they are truncated to 1/3 the whole space, but the album title is not truncated at all (and is less than the whole space).
Eg http://g2.bleau.org/main.php?g2_view=core:ShowItem&g2_itemId=45
Thanks for all your answers,
Alex.

If you modify the database directly you must clear the database cache, Site Admin / Maintenance.

Great! Thanks! The last thing I need to know now is where the 'Resized Images' sizes are stored in the database so I can do bulk changes. But I guess I'll have to re-import the G1 stuff anyway, when Custom Fields migration will be done. Maybe I can give some help on this, if someone tells me where to start ;)
Thanks again for the quick help!
