Without the backgrounds, I can replicate your text page and deleting that line certainly shortens the empty space.

1 -> Try "+ 1" or "+ 2" instead of "+ 6".
2 -> Under Templates
3 -> You can turn description on for any Item in PGTheme. I think your issue was you wanted then by the side. Gaynor can clarify which one she recommended as I have only ever used PGTheme.
I don;t see the bouncing of the others as a problem.
That's the beauty of opensource ... You change the code to suit your preferences. I just wanted to give Ian all the info so he could make a choice.

Yes and the beauty of Gallery, that we can set different themes for different albums.
So I now have an album or two specifically for trying things out, where I can change the theme as many times as I like without affecting the rest of my gallery.
Ever watched a little girl playing dressups?
I can even make several subalbums, set the parent test album for the things that will be constant, to be inherited, and in each of the 'children' only need to work on the settings I am experimenting with.
Time consuming but fun and more productive than playing solitaire

Thanks guys.
As far as I can tell PGTheme isn't very consistent in what it does when you select Item Description. What it does on the album page is to turn on the *summary* text for sub-albums, not the description. Even the Classic Theme doesn't give me that, as far as I can tell.
In the end I modified the template. Finding the right places was a bit tricky, but we did it in the end. I made an arbitrary decision that on pages where I specify that I want *both* a single column layout *and* the item description I should get this modified format two column format instead, with the existing thumbnail and details on the left, and the sub album description text on the right.
I am very new to using Gallery and downloaded PHTheme's due to the customization. I was able to change the logo on a PGTheme, but my color has to be None for it to work. If I change it to one of the Gallery colors the link breaks. If I change it to one of the PG colors, I get Pedro's logo back. I don't understand why its overwriting the logo.gif file.
I have no experience with code, and hope the problem is simple to fix.
Any suggestions???

Thanks Dave.
I have often been frustrated trying to find some sort of instructions for configuring PG theme.
I had never imagined that the link in Downloads/ User Contributions (which appeared to be to Pedro's website - very nice but I have seen it before) would actually lead to an instruction page.

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone has experienced an issue with a "Description" field when editing an individual photo under "MultiLanguage" tab? We seem to be running into an issue where sometimes the description field would contain some text previously added but when returning back to the same arbitrary photo to change its context, the description field wouldn't retrieve any text which was previously saved. At this point, the user modifies any text fields and saves the record while being unaware that the previous text in the "description" field was just overwritten with blank.
Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to track this down yet but I’m suspecting a possible browser bug since clearing cache and restarting all the browser instances resolved this issue last time this happened
Sorry if this was already addressed before, just looking for some pointers?
Thanks in advance,

Hi Gaynor --
Sorry about the delay.
The changes are pretty simple: there's one section at the top of the loop, another at the bottom. The patch file follows. If you're not familiar with this format, the lines marked with '!' are the changes, and I've included a few lines of context either side to help you find them.
As I mentioned before I designed this change to have minimal impact on the theme. It is *only* activated when $theme.params.columns == 1 && $theme.params.ItemsDesc.
my host did a restore of my site after things got messed up. But now my gallery cannot connect to the database. Everything else
seems to be intact.
The gdata folder still has all the galleries I created
but when I click on any of my gallery links - it says the albums are empty and when I try to login - i get sent to a page that says
Database Error
An error has occurred while interacting with the database.
Any idea how I can reconnect my database to my gallery?
Hi Soreel
I think you should move this problem to the Troubleshooting forum.
It is nothing to do with the PG theme, and there are others there who could help you.

Ok, I just installed the PG Theme. I love the way it looks. But I have two problems with it. I am wondering if I am alone in this or if everybody is experiencing the same thing.
The first problem is the speed of displaying an image.
All the navigation right up to the point where it displays the image is fast. Very fast since I am on the local lan with the server.
But when I do that final click to load the image, it takes a good 8 seconds to bring up the loading gif super imposed over the old image. Then it takes another 1 to 2 seconds to fade in the new image.
Is that consistent with everybody else? Now this is to show the medium res image. (BTW, when I do a fullscreen slide show using the java app, the images load and display really quickly).
the second problem is a bug I think.
If I select the largest size for the image and then I click on the "next image" link, it reverts back to the medium size image. Is it supposed to do that? I really want it to stick with the size that I select. If it is designed to do that, can somebody poitn me to the right source file so I can change it?
Thanks a lot for listening.

G2 as a whole and PGTheme can be slow at times. There are options under siteadmin for improving performance. However since you say it is ok until image loading, the default size of your images may be an issue so you can try smaller sizes. I went a step further once I was happy with my site layout by removing the options withn the theme that I don't want. Having to evaluate so many options slows the program down.
On the sizes thing, this is to do with how this feature is implemented in G2 and not specific to PGTheme. Actually, it essentially makes this feature useless so you are probably better off disabling it. There will also probably be a slight speed benefit. Trying to fix it will involve major coding changes.
Maybe if you put it a feature request, the programmers will get round to sorting this out. However, the upcoming Version 2.2 has not addressed this problem.
You know last night I thought for sure the default matrix theme was responsive. This morning I tried it again and sure enough I am seeing 4 second page views (8 seconds with PGTheme). This is with full acceleration turned on in the admin.
So, even though I have been a gallery 1 user for 5 years, I am off to check out coppermine. I just checked their demo and it seemed quite fast and it comes with phpbb integration (after I just finished installing the 3rd party phpbb integration for gallery).

The cart button is controlled by a specific module and you will need to develop an "EBay Cart" module with the neccesary scripting after which you can go into the PGTheme code to change the button reference from the standard one to your new one. So it is posssible but only someone particularly interested in this will make this. Up for it?
The size limit issue is not PGTheme specific and should be adressed to a more appropriate forum for a better chance of getting answers.
I have a couple of questions about the PGtheme that I hope someone can answer about embedding in a Joomla site I am working on. I have attached a marked up screen capture with this message.
1. How do I remove the space above the album / photo area?
2. How do I move the photo title to be left aligned with the photo?
3. How do I control which icons are to the left of the title, there are two right now a box and a slideshow icon. What is the box icon for? I think I would like to not display that as I am using the breadcrumbs so I do not need both? Does that make sense?
Thanks,
Paul.

HI Paul.
Go back to the album view then click "Album Actions/Edit Album/ Theme" and look in the settings there.
You might find something in "Blocks to show on photo pages" in the top section
Then Lower down in "Overall" look at "OVERALL :: Show expand to full screen button" which might be your little box. Otherwise it is probably a Navigation icon.
"OVERALL :: Link Albums directly to photo pages " might be interesting, but needs you to click the one below it so you can get back.
Further down in "Photo" section, look especially at
"PHOTO :: Show Title (select position) "you can set it to 'on top align left'
Also at "PHOTO :: Show Information (select position) "
Good luck

I still haven't found that one colour to do with the copyright, and am busy at present.
I'd suggest you look in Edit album and see what templates are involved with the OVERALL grouping, then look in them. My guess would be the size of that space is related to the size of the default logo image.
Good luck

Hello, I love this theme!
but I noticed a problem with the MICROTHUMBS navigation buttons on the bottom.
I only get the goto 1st page button & the goto last page button. i dont get the inbetween butons. to goto the next page.
I noticed that on the author's site. (pedro) I see the goto next & previous page in the microthumbs section.
but i cant seem to find an option to enable that..just dissable first & last page.
If you have any ideas on this, please let me know!
Thanks,
Bayardo.

From the album go into Edit Album/Theme and scroll down to the PHOTO settings
I think this is what you want.
>PHOTO :: Show photo navigation pics (select position) <
Good luck

Hi guys,
I'm sorry if it has been brought up before, but I couldn't find it when I did a search...
First of all - this theme is briliant! Thank you!
I'd like to ask if it's possible to change the language of the theme? I'll be using it on to Danish websites, so it would be nice if the text was in Danish.
If it's not already available, perhaps we should begin modifying text and graphics for different langauges?
Thank you ,
- Jesper

2. Main page of album: right navigation shows "http://www.hmethods.com/main". it disappears when you click elsewhere. It goest to the correct " Hmethods"
3. Sometimes when click on left logo "home". It directs to: "http://hmethods.com" instead of "http://www.hmethods.com" How do i fix that?

Hi NSJuice
I don;t know about [1]
[2] Have a look at your settings in Edit Admin.
In those sections it is very easy to put the URL in the line above.
OVERALL :: Top Navigation - Link [?]
OVERALL :: Top Navigation - URL for this Link [?]
I had a similar problem when the 'link' and the URL started very similarly.
I had to change my link to "Back to PiopioNZ.com"
"Webpage" also works as the programme can easily see it as different.
>when you click elsewhere. It goes to the correct " Hmethods"<
That is because it takes us to a different page.
an interesting quirk of the programme apparently.
[3]>It directs to: "http://hmethods.com" instead of "http://www.hmethods.com" How do i fix that?<
Why does it matter? they are just two versions of the same address.

Hi,
The permissions are usually set to everybody by default, and you only need to change that if you want to restrict viewing.
Look in your top level album/Options/Permissions
There you should see the default in 'Group Permissions' set to 'Everybody'
>Group name Permission Action
Everybody [core] View all versions [core] View item [core] View resized version(s) [core] View original version [core] View all versions
Site Admins All access <
It also states
>Changes are applied to sub-items by default.
<
That of course can be over-ridden by removing the Group Everybody permission for individual albums, or photos.
Hi,
I would like to adjust the table cells' margins of the td.giAlbumCell but not sure where is the best place. Also, each of my album cells on the main /first page are like a cell within a cell, except for one album--"Residential Places". Can someone please explain why it is displayed differently? You can use the web-developer add-on for Firefox and select outline table cells to see it. The site is http://rogerbrooks.contagiousdesign.net/main.php . I am using G2 with PGtheme 1.1.
Thanks

Hello Pedro.
Please can you tell me where to change the colour of the one grey line below the Description etc at the top of the Gallery page in your theme PGtheme.
I love your theme, but like to use my own colorpacks and often that line needs to be other than grey, but I cannot see any line in your colorpacks that controls it.

All the albums look alike to me. Can you attach pictures indicating what the issue is?
gaynormcc
This line of code .gcBorder1Top { border-bottom: 1px solid #eaeaea !important; } in the color.css of whatever pgcolorpack you are using controls the colour of that line. #eaeaea is grey (from pgsnow) and you can change this to whatever hex colour value you want.
Did you have this tag before you updated to 2.2? If so, it means the module that controls this is not 2.2 compartible.
If you are only just trying to implement this feature, then you need to install the relevant module.
This issue does not appear to be PGTheme specific so your best bet will be to create a post under the 3rd party modules forum appropriately tagged with the name of the relevant module.

I think that the problem is of pgtheme. If I change theme (e.g. Carbon) he perfectly works.
I go to open a post in 3rd party modules forum .

If it works with Carbon then it is a PGTheme issue.
Let me get this right. Are you saying you had the tags showing with PGTheme when you were on G2.1.2 and then it stopped showing after you upgraded to G2.2 or is it the case that this is a new installation of Gallery and you have started with G2.2?
I seem to remember when I used that feature that you needed to switch two things on in Admin for it to show in PGTheme.
almost every subalbum has a different colorpack and that grey line is in each
It is particularly annoying in the photo view where there are nav lines to the right with colours that suit the colorpack and that line at the top is still grey.
While you are in there, if you see why none of these colorpacks show the image backgrounds, I'll be really happy. My earlier colorpack on the top gallery has the images and I cna;t see how I have changed the basic system for these colorpacks. IT has to be to do with the Colorpack css as changing only cp in EditAlbum shows the difference re these images.
IF you need more permissions to see that, I'll PM them
Also while you are in there can you please check the colorpacks and frames work in other Browsers.
They do work in IE, FF, on my machine, and IE10 on a friend's.(I hadn;t realised IE was up to version 10)

Thanks Dayo.
Somehow that line had got deleted from the css I have been adapting.
No wonder I could not find it.
You have saved me from going insane
Floridave, I;ll check through one of the original colorpacks with my new ones and see if another line controlling the images has also got accidentally deleted.

Currently use pgtheme. If I change theme with carbon theme under the album "Gite - Escursioni - Trekking - Scialpinismo " appears the tag "Updated" (in italian language "Aggiornato") .

Right, thank you both, Dave and Dayo,
I have sorted out the line now.
Now my problem is that the new versions of the colorpack do not access the background images
My earlier colorpack on the top gallery has the images.
IT has to be to do with the Colorpack css as by changing only the colorpack (in EditAlbum)
When the earlier pack is chosen, the images show, and when I choose a newer colorpack the images don;t show.
I have compared the colorcss files, and the earlier one has lines
The new ones do not have the ".PPBackground " in the top line or the ".iframeBackground " in the third.
Other than these I can see no difference in the respective css files.
Would these be the cause of not seeing the images?
These things don;t shoow in the PG colorpack (Revision1.2) that I was using as a base for the newer ones.
Not that I think the images to be even the main advantage of using the PGtheme, but I'd like my new colorpacks to be able to make use of all his facilities.

If it works on the other themes and it showed before, then you must have changed something.
Can't think of why you should be having a problem if nothing has changed.
I've been tweaking and playing around with Wordpress and the Minima Plus theme along with PG Theme for Gallery 2 on my site for a week or so now (using the WPG2 Plugin to mesh them all together easily), and have come across a potentially easy-to-fix (but pulling my hair out to figure out why I can't!) error. The problem lies when you head into 'Gallery' section of the site. The menu bar, as you'll see right away, is out of sync. It goes black and moves up across the header logo.
As you can see when it loads, the theme itself in Wordpress does fine until the gallery comes up and it shifts the menu bar out of whack. I've tweaked my header, stylesheet, messed around with a custom header (wpg2header.php), tweaked everything I can think of, with no luck.
Can anyone point me in the right direction or has any clue where the error lies most likely? I'm guessing it's a combo between the plugin to combine Wordpress (with the Minima Plus them) and PG Theme. In any event, any help that can be offered would be appreciated...

Looking at your source code.
Line 371

Might be the problem
Delete row 371 and see.
Without the backgrounds, I can replicate your text page and deleting that line certainly shortens the empty space.

Thanks guys.
As far as I can tell PGTheme isn't very consistent in what it does when you select Item Description. What it does on the album page is to turn on the *summary* text for sub-albums, not the description. Even the Classic Theme doesn't give me that, as far as I can tell.
In the end I modified the template. Finding the right places was a bit tricky, but we did it in the end. I made an arbitrary decision that on pages where I specify that I want *both* a single column layout *and* the item description I should get this modified format two column format instead, with the existing thumbnail and details on the left, and the sub album description text on the right.

I am very new to using Gallery and downloaded PHTheme's due to the customization. I was able to change the logo on a PGTheme, but my color has to be None for it to work. If I change it to one of the Gallery colors the link breaks. If I change it to one of the PG colors, I get Pedro's logo back. I don't understand why its overwriting the logo.gif file.
I have no experience with code, and hope the problem is simple to fix.
Any suggestions???

Thanks Dave.
I have often been frustrated trying to find some sort of instructions for configuring PG theme.
I had never imagined that the link in Downloads/ User Contributions (which appeared to be to Pedro's website - very nice but I have seen it before) would actually lead to an instruction page.

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone has experienced an issue with a "Description" field when editing an individual photo under "MultiLanguage" tab? We seem to be running into an issue where sometimes the description field would contain some text previously added but when returning back to the same arbitrary photo to change its context, the description field wouldn't retrieve any text which was previously saved. At this point, the user modifies any text fields and saves the record while being unaware that the previous text in the "description" field was just overwritten with blank.
Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to track this down yet but I’m suspecting a possible browser bug since clearing cache and restarting all the browser instances resolved this issue last time this happened
Sorry if this was already addressed before, just looking for some pointers?
Thanks in advance,

I am interested in how you did this.

Hi Gaynor --
Sorry about the delay.
The changes are pretty simple: there's one section at the top of the loop, another at the bottom. The patch file follows. If you're not familiar with this format, the lines marked with '!' are the changes, and I've included a few lines of context either side to help you find them.
As I mentioned before I designed this change to have minimal impact on the theme. It is *only* activated when $theme.params.columns == 1 && $theme.params.ItemsDesc.
Hope its of help.

Hi Guys,
I have run into a problem with my gallery.
my host did a restore of my site after things got messed up. But now my gallery cannot connect to the database. Everything else
seems to be intact.
The gdata folder still has all the galleries I created
but when I click on any of my gallery links - it says the albums are empty and when I try to login - i get sent to a page that says
Database Error
An error has occurred while interacting with the database.
Any idea how I can reconnect my database to my gallery?

Hi Soreel
I think you should move this problem to the Troubleshooting forum.
It is nothing to do with the PG theme, and there are others there who could help you.

Ok, I just installed the PG Theme. I love the way it looks. But I have two problems with it. I am wondering if I am alone in this or if everybody is experiencing the same thing.
The first problem is the speed of displaying an image.
All the navigation right up to the point where it displays the image is fast. Very fast since I am on the local lan with the server.
But when I do that final click to load the image, it takes a good 8 seconds to bring up the loading gif super imposed over the old image. Then it takes another 1 to 2 seconds to fade in the new image.
Is that consistent with everybody else? Now this is to show the medium res image. (BTW, when I do a fullscreen slide show using the java app, the images load and display really quickly).
the second problem is a bug I think.
If I select the largest size for the image and then I click on the "next image" link, it reverts back to the medium size image. Is it supposed to do that? I really want it to stick with the size that I select. If it is designed to do that, can somebody poitn me to the right source file so I can change it?
Thanks a lot for listening.

G2 as a whole and PGTheme can be slow at times. There are options under siteadmin for improving performance. However since you say it is ok until image loading, the default size of your images may be an issue so you can try smaller sizes. I went a step further once I was happy with my site layout by removing the options withn the theme that I don't want. Having to evaluate so many options slows the program down.
On the sizes thing, this is to do with how this feature is implemented in G2 and not specific to PGTheme. Actually, it essentially makes this feature useless so you are probably better off disabling it. There will also probably be a slight speed benefit. Trying to fix it will involve major coding changes.
Maybe if you put it a feature request, the programmers will get round to sorting this out. However, the upcoming Version 2.2 has not addressed this problem.

Thanks for the reply Dayo.
You know last night I thought for sure the default matrix theme was responsive. This morning I tried it again and sure enough I am seeing 4 second page views (8 seconds with PGTheme). This is with full acceleration turned on in the admin.
So, even though I have been a gallery 1 user for 5 years, I am off to check out coppermine. I just checked their demo and it seemed quite fast and it comes with phpbb integration (after I just finished installing the 3rd party phpbb integration for gallery).

The cart button is controlled by a specific module and you will need to develop an "EBay Cart" module with the neccesary scripting after which you can go into the PGTheme code to change the button reference from the standard one to your new one. So it is posssible but only someone particularly interested in this will make this. Up for it?
The size limit issue is not PGTheme specific and should be adressed to a more appropriate forum for a better chance of getting answers.

Hi everyone!
I have a couple of questions about the PGtheme that I hope someone can answer about embedding in a Joomla site I am working on. I have attached a marked up screen capture with this message.
1. How do I remove the space above the album / photo area?
2. How do I move the photo title to be left aligned with the photo?
3. How do I control which icons are to the left of the title, there are two right now a box and a slideshow icon. What is the box icon for? I think I would like to not display that as I am using the breadcrumbs so I do not need both? Does that make sense?
Thanks,
Paul.

HI Paul.
Go back to the album view then click "Album Actions/Edit Album/ Theme" and look in the settings there.
You might find something in "Blocks to show on photo pages" in the top section
Then Lower down in "Overall" look at "OVERALL :: Show expand to full screen button" which might be your little box. Otherwise it is probably a Navigation icon.
"OVERALL :: Link Albums directly to photo pages " might be interesting, but needs you to click the one below it so you can get back.
Further down in "Photo" section, look especially at
"PHOTO :: Show Title (select position) "you can set it to 'on top align left'
Also at "PHOTO :: Show Information (select position) "
Good luck

Excellent - thank you thank you thank you...
Any ideas on how to move the whole block up so there is not so much space above it? See the image I attached to my message previously if there are any questions.
Posts: 426
I still haven't found that one colour to do with the copyright, and am busy at present.
I'd suggest you look in Edit album and see what templates are involved with the OVERALL grouping, then look in them. My guess would be the size of that space is related to the size of the default logo image.
Good luck

Hello, I love this theme!
but I noticed a problem with the MICROTHUMBS navigation buttons on the bottom.
I only get the goto 1st page button & the goto last page button. i dont get the inbetween butons. to goto the next page.
heres an example of what i mean http://www.bayardo.name/nexterror.jpg
[img]http://www.bayardo.name/nexterror.jpg[/img]
I noticed that on the author's site. (pedro) I see the goto next & previous page in the microthumbs section.
but i cant seem to find an option to enable that..just dissable first & last page.
If you have any ideas on this, please let me know!
Thanks,
Bayardo.

From the album go into Edit Album/Theme and scroll down to the PHOTO settings
I think this is what you want.
>PHOTO :: Show photo navigation pics (select position) <
Good luck

Hi guys,
I'm sorry if it has been brought up before, but I couldn't find it when I did a search...
First of all - this theme is briliant! Thank you!
I'd like to ask if it's possible to change the language of the theme? I'll be using it on to Danish websites, so it would be nice if the text was in Danish.
If it's not already available, perhaps we should begin modifying text and graphics for different langauges?
Thank you ,

i love this theme. all was running fine.. until.. !
here is my gallery testing: http://www.hmethods.com/pictures
1. I get this error when Login or Register:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: relativerequireonce() in /home/.knudsen/nsjuice/hmethods.com/pictures/modules/colorpack/classes/ColorPackImpl.class on line 31
2. Main page of album: right navigation shows "http://www.hmethods.com/main". it disappears when you click elsewhere. It goest to the correct " Hmethods"
3. Sometimes when click on left logo "home". It directs to: "http://hmethods.com" instead of "http://www.hmethods.com" How do i fix that?
Posts: 426
Hi NSJuice
I don;t know about [1]
[2] Have a look at your settings in Edit Admin.
In those sections it is very easy to put the URL in the line above.
OVERALL :: Top Navigation - Link [?]
OVERALL :: Top Navigation - URL for this Link [?]
I had a similar problem when the 'link' and the URL started very similarly.
I had to change my link to "Back to PiopioNZ.com"
"Webpage" also works as the programme can easily see it as different.
>when you click elsewhere. It goes to the correct " Hmethods"<
That is because it takes us to a different page.
an interesting quirk of the programme apparently.
[3]>It directs to: "http://hmethods.com" instead of "http://www.hmethods.com" How do i fix that?<
Why does it matter? they are just two versions of the same address.

thanks guys.
i did something wrong. so i re installed the whole thing! no more errors.
i just have a question how to:
set default permission for "everyone or guest"to see all albums instead of having to do it manually by album owner.
Thank you
Posts: 426
Hi,
The permissions are usually set to everybody by default, and you only need to change that if you want to restrict viewing.
Look in your top level album/Options/Permissions
There you should see the default in 'Group Permissions' set to 'Everybody'
>Group name Permission Action
Everybody [core] View all versions [core] View item [core] View resized version(s) [core] View original version [core] View all versions
Site Admins All access <
It also states
>Changes are applied to sub-items by default.
<
That of course can be over-ridden by removing the Group Everybody permission for individual albums, or photos.

Hi,
I would like to adjust the table cells' margins of the td.giAlbumCell but not sure where is the best place. Also, each of my album cells on the main /first page are like a cell within a cell, except for one album--"Residential Places". Can someone please explain why it is displayed differently? You can use the web-developer add-on for Firefox and select outline table cells to see it. The site is http://rogerbrooks.contagiousdesign.net/main.php . I am using G2 with PGtheme 1.1.
Thanks

Hello Pedro.
Please can you tell me where to change the colour of the one grey line below the Description etc at the top of the Gallery page in your theme PGtheme.
I love your theme, but like to use my own colorpacks and often that line needs to be other than grey, but I cannot see any line in your colorpacks that controls it.

That one grey line is getting to really annoy me.

This line of code
.gcBorder1Top { border-bottom: 1px solid #eaeaea !important; }
in the color.css of whatever pgcolorpack you are using controls the colour of that line. #eaeaea is grey (from pgsnow) and you can change this to whatever hex colour value you want..

Never apologise for your English.
Did you have this tag before you updated to 2.2? If so, it means the module that controls this is not 2.2 compartible.
If you are only just trying to implement this feature, then you need to install the relevant module.
This issue does not appear to be PGTheme specific so your best bet will be to create a post under the 3rd party modules forum appropriately tagged with the name of the relevant module.
Good luck!

The module is compatible (i view green item in site admin) My set are:
New: 7
Updated: 7
I think that the problem is of pgtheme. If I change theme (e.g. Carbon) he perfectly works.
I go to open a post in 3rd party modules forum .

If it works with Carbon then it is a PGTheme issue.
Let me get this right. Are you saying you had the tags showing with PGTheme when you were on G2.1.2 and then it stopped showing after you upgraded to G2.2 or is it the case that this is a new installation of Gallery and you have started with G2.2?
I seem to remember when I used that feature that you needed to switch two things on in Admin for it to show in PGTheme.

Thanks Dave
http://piopionz.com/gallery2/v/PGtests/
Login User = gallery, pw = team
almost every subalbum has a different colorpack and that grey line is in each
It is particularly annoying in the photo view where there are nav lines to the right with colours that suit the colorpack and that line at the top is still grey.
eg
http://piopionz.com/gallery2/v/PGtests/nutherwun/Red/CANMN67T.jpg.html?g2_enterAlbum=0
The grey line spoils the whole appearance.
While you are in there, if you see why none of these colorpacks show the image backgrounds, I'll be really happy. My earlier colorpack on the top gallery has the images and I cna;t see how I have changed the basic system for these colorpacks. IT has to be to do with the Colorpack css as changing only cp in EditAlbum shows the difference re these images.
IF you need more permissions to see that, I'll PM them
Also while you are in there can you please check the colorpacks and frames work in other Browsers.
They do work in IE, FF, on my machine, and IE10 on a friend's.(I hadn;t realised IE was up to version 10)

Thanks Dayo.
Somehow that line had got deleted from the css I have been adapting.
No wonder I could not find it.
You have saved me from going insane
Floridave, I;ll check through one of the original colorpacks with my new ones and see if another line controlling the images has also got accidentally deleted.
Gaynor
Posts: 27300
As Dayo said:
This is the cause:
.gcBorder1Top { border-bottom: 1px solid #aaa; margin:6px; }
from the theme.css
and a fix in the color.css:
.gcBorder1Top { border-bottom: 1px solid #a00 !important; }
Change the {b]#a00[/b] to your taste.
Dave

This is my gallery http://www.alefoto.it
Currently use pgtheme. If I change theme with carbon theme under the album "Gite - Escursioni - Trekking - Scialpinismo " appears the tag "Updated" (in italian language "Aggiornato") .
Before of the upgrade to the G2.2 also with pgtheme the tag appeared.

Right, thank you both, Dave and Dayo,
I have sorted out the line now.
Now my problem is that the new versions of the colorpack do not access the background images
http://piopionz.com/gallery2/v/PGtests/nutherwun/Red/CANMN67T.jpg.html?g2_enterAlbum=0
My earlier colorpack on the top gallery has the images.
IT has to be to do with the Colorpack css as by changing only the colorpack (in EditAlbum)
When the earlier pack is chosen, the images show, and when I choose a newer colorpack the images don;t show.
I have compared the colorcss files, and the earlier one has lines
>
body.gallery, .PPBackground { background-color: ColC !important; }
.gcBackground1 { background-color: ColD !important; }
.gcBackground2 .iframeBackground { background-color: ColC !important; }
<
The new ones do not have the ".PPBackground " in the top line or the ".iframeBackground " in the third.
Other than these I can see no difference in the respective css files.
Would these be the cause of not seeing the images?
These things don;t shoow in the PG colorpack (Revision1.2) that I was using as a base for the newer ones.
Not that I think the images to be even the main advantage of using the PGtheme, but I'd like my new colorpacks to be able to make use of all his facilities.

It must have been a flukey thing. I saw it with Firefox on two different machines but looks fine, now. Thank-you.

If it works on the other themes and it showed before, then you must have changed something.
Can't think of why you should be having a problem if nothing has changed.

Howdy,
I've been tweaking and playing around with Wordpress and the Minima Plus theme along with PG Theme for Gallery 2 on my site for a week or so now (using the WPG2 Plugin to mesh them all together easily), and have come across a potentially easy-to-fix (but pulling my hair out to figure out why I can't!) error. The problem lies when you head into 'Gallery' section of the site. The menu bar, as you'll see right away, is out of sync. It goes black and moves up across the header logo.
As you can see when it loads, the theme itself in Wordpress does fine until the gallery comes up and it shifts the menu bar out of whack. I've tweaked my header, stylesheet, messed around with a custom header (wpg2header.php), tweaked everything I can think of, with no luck.
Can anyone point me in the right direction or has any clue where the error lies most likely? I'm guessing it's a combo between the plugin to combine Wordpress (with the Minima Plus them) and PG Theme. In any event, any help that can be offered would be appreciated...
Oh yeah, the part of the site where it all goes wrong: http://gallery.canadianabroad.com

UserAbroad The culprit is:
In wp-content/themes/MinimaPlus/style.css
Never used that theme so can't offer more advice.
