Hello,

I first wanted to say that this theme is simply awesome. I just had a quick question:

Is there any way to get view count to show for each picture on each individual picture screen? Pretty much where the owner and the date information is for each picture, is it possible to make view count show there?

Thanks for any suggestions!

-Stephen

shoobeedoodoo, that should be easy.

Make a local copy of your photo.tpl in a local-folder within the template folder and look for

              {if $theme.params.InfoPhoto}
                {g->block type="core.ItemInfo"
                          item=$theme.item
                          showDate=true
                          showOwner=true
                          class="giInfo"}

              {/if}

adding a showViewCount=true
after the showOwner
should do the trick (not verified - but definitly worth a try)

Hi LFrank,

Thanks for the reply.

I tried what you suggested but it does not work =(

I read somewhere in the forum that I have to add viewCount to the $dataType in the theme.inc file, which I think I did, but it still does not work.

Any more suggestions?

Thanks!

I am now in the same boat. I upgraded to the latest release, and under PGtheme I have lost the MicroThumbs.

I did the upgrade via CVS and found the micro thumbs broken. Actually, in my instance, they are replaced with a single | mark where they formerly resided.

I also tried the change mindless recommended to no avail. The microthumbs are clearly hoarked.

Has anyone heard from Pedro? Maybe he is on holiday?

Is there a way to go back to RC1 until this gets sorted out? The upgrade GUI would not allow me.

Bummer.

Hi LFrank,

Thanks again for the reply.

I looked at album.tpl, and the showViewCount = true is just like photo.tpl

However, there is no view count displayed for any of my albums themselves, so I'm not sure if showViewCount = true is working in album.tpl

Any other suggestions?

Also, I had another question: For photo.tpl, is it possible to make it so that if a user clicks on the right side of the picture, it will go to the next picture, and if he clicks on the left side of the picture, it will go to the previous picture? I have seen some sites do this, and was wondering if this would be difficult to achieve.

Thanks again for all your help!

-Stephen

Hi again,

I accidently didn't see that I had turned off item information in the theme settings. I turned it on and now can see the view count for each item. However, I still can't get the view count to show on each individual picture page (photo.tpl)

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Stephen

I suspect Pedro is working on this now... the download link for his theme is currently gone, but his site is upgraded to RC-2.. so hopefully he'll have the updated theme available soon.

patrickthickey, as you said i'm on holiday
cow736, the black borders are not a frame, are made at photoshop and the images uploaded like that.

The theme was upgraded and now fully working on Gallery2 ('RC2 KTHXBYE') you can download "PGtheme_V0.10.5B1.zip" (Version 0.10.5 Build 1)

If you noticed any bugs let me know, i'll try to solve it as soon as possible.

Downloaded the zip file, moved it to my Linux server. Did the Unzip, I can see the Theme in Admin but when I try to "Install" I get a "page cannot be displayed" message. I've tried to read through the thread, but it sure is long, I may have missed it somewhere along the way.

The is the URL it trys to use:
http://www.deweydrive.com/gallery2/gallery2/main.php?g2_controller=core.AdminThemes&g2_themeId=PGtheme&g2_form%5Baction%5D%5Binstall%5D=1&g2_navId=xcbb7fe50

Hints, ideas, pointers?

Thanks,

Pedro,
Fantasic theme! Thanks so much.
Have a couple of questions:
1. in your theme the sidebar pops up on right click. I can't seem to find the file where that behaviour is defined? I prefer the sidebar to display normally on the side of the page.

2. In the microThumbs, the first and last image are displayed automatically. I'd prefer not to have those displayed, but I can't find the variables that define that behaviour. Where are they defined? I'd prefer to have a link above/below the microthumbs that states previous/next 10 (or whatever number I choose to display)

Thanks!
Rog

Hi,
very nice work!!! I just have a question and one small bug...

1.
a click on the "next page" button always links to the last page, not the next one. it works like a charm on the photo-page, though...

2.
I'd like to display a few imageblocks (random, newest, etc) on the frontpage/1stpage. A good place to display the images would be the inside the author representation frame (author.tpl). How can I add the imageblocks? The view-external-imageblock-function did not quite work...

THX

Been playing around with this theme... Very well done btw. But for some odd reason my micro thumbs aren't showing up. Any ideas - www.jeffreytschumperlin.com/gallery2. Not sure what I may be missing.

Hello,

Just wondering if anyone knew how to modify this wonderful theme so that if someone clicks on the right side of a picture, it will go to the next picture, and if someone clicks on the left side of a picture, it will go to the previous picture?

Thanks,
Stephen

This is a fantastic theme yes.

Wanted to add a vote also for the left side bar. Pop up is very cool. Would be nice to have a toggle to also have it display statically on the left side too. Just my $0.02.

Question on this wonderful theme...

The header. The theme uses logo.gif and logoon.gif theme.tpl. When anything other than the default colorpack is selected, it defaults to these files located in the <colorpack>/images directory. If I remove these two files from a colorpack, the header disappears. I don't see logic that has it default to the <site>/images/logo.gif and logoon.gif images.

Am I missing something, or is there a more elegant way of handling this withou having to copy these two image files to each <colorpack>/images directory?

pgilbert, one litte thing - my ThumbNavigator suddenly displays 3 columns - even having two columns set in the admon options - the last image in not even numbers is displayed s third column (see https://localmail.dynip.com/GALLERY2/v/Nature/Sunflower/_R8I0623.JPG.html?g2_imageViewsIndex=3)

EDIT: even worse .. on albums with more images, I get only a two lined navigator, first lined displaying the desired two thumbs - but - all others on the second line ...

How would I go about getting the microthumbs to be two columns with several rows?

No matter what I try it only is one or two rows?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

LFrank,

The rightclik "alert" and "options" don't work very well together, you have to click"ok" on the "alert" window and then the "options will work.
Or disable "alert" and enable only "options" on right click

Since upgrading to the two latest versions of PGtheme the slideshow runs amok here. Switches 2-3 pictures in rapid succession - then stops.
A local problem or related to the theme changes?

I had 2 comment/questions

I was noticing on your personal site, that you have nice overlays, showing navigation via the photo, when viewing individual photos. Are you planing on including that in the theme?

Second, I was wondering if you know a way of going directly to the single photo view when selecting an album. Maybe that's a Gallery function, not part of your theme.

PG Theme - Search options.
I have been looking at your homepage at http://www.pedrogilberto.net. And you have implemented one of the things I miss the most until now. That is the search page that opens when I click on: Imagens Novas . Is that possible to implement as part of your theme? Any directions will be highly appreciated!

Com desejos de um fim de semana excelente de Noruega!

Looking at his live G2 install, it looks like he's adding more features or making minor tweaks and adjustments. I noticed he takes the download page down when he's updating the theme. Probably making minor tweaks since the final release of G2.

I'd keep checking back.

Sorry, If iam hijaking the topic, thats not my intention but since I use PGTheme and I don't see any other topic on this, Iam posting my Q here.
PGTheme is one of the best theme I ever come across. But Iam having couple of problems.
1. Is there any way we can re-arrange the albums. I upgraded from G1.5 to G2 and upgraded the albums not in orderly way so I see album3 first and then albums1. How can I re-arrange the albums in this theme.
2. How can I add a new album. If I click on new album its adding automatically to the first album as sub-album. Ofcourse I can move that album later, but is there any easy way instead of moving it later.

TIA

Those are more general support questions and not really related to the theme you are using.

I'm not very familiar with the PG theme and I currently don't have it installed to double check

@1 Click on Options, now select Rearrange

@2 Just as in G1 you have to be in the album you want that sub-album to be in ;). First browse to the album you want the new album to be in then select Add Album from the Options menu.

Hello,

I have a question, but first a statement :) .. I'm still running a beta version of gallery2 (i'm too afraid to update it because I'm not so good in coding and I don't want to ruin my current website) and also with this beta version, an older version of PGtheme ...

What I want to do is this: without upgrading, I want to insert the code that do the picture navigation, the one that displays over the picture like the loading script. Any suggestion what to modify, insert ?

regards,
Alin

You can try this mod:
http://gallery.menalto.com/node/35744

If you can't get that working there's not much help we can do if you're using the old layout/theme system as it's old, hard to work with and completely unsupported. It would be of great benifit to you to update your changes to the current theme system.

Oh wait, I see you're using RC1, upgrading should be pretty dang painless for you. Backup your DB, g2data and modifications and go for it!!! ;)

Yup I got them. Sorry for being so dumb :( Still in learning phase..
I have 1 more Q. Iam in the process of creating links at top of the page nex to Login. By default PG Theme allows to create 2 links, How can I create 3rd link, tried modifying theme.inc under themes/PGtheme and that change shows up in the SiteAdmin/Themes/PGTheme but thats not showing up on the page. How can I do it.
