How do you put a white border and a dropped shadow around the albums and items?

Thanks.

You would create an imageframe to do that. See instructions on how to do that.

lvthunder, I was wondering how you changed the upper left corner of the Gallery...

From this...

Gallery

Gallery
This is the main page of your Gallery

To this... ? what files were changed...

Home Links < I like this as I am comming from a CMS and would like to link back >
Stephen's Gallery
Stephen's Gallery < I would like to have only one of these >

This is the main page of your Gallery < and last, I would like to get rid of this all together >

I was looking around in the theme.tpls but to no avail... TIA

Well the home and links are part of the menu in the options for the theme.
The first Stephen's Gallery is the breadcrumb and the second one is the gallery you are currently in. The breadcrumb is in theme.tpl and the title is in album and photo.tpl.

... Thank you for pointing this out to me...
The first Stephen's Gallery is the breadcrumb
... I played around with this and in retrospect I think it is best left alone, & I need it as a way out of the albums...
and the second one is the gallery you are currently in. The breadcrumb is in theme.tpl and the title is in album and photo.tpl.
... the second one I can not find, any code &/or file pointer would be helpfull...

Here is the code from album.tpl

{*
 * $Revision: 1.1.1 $
 * If you want to customize this file, do not edit it directly since future upgrades
 * may overwrite it.  Instead, copy it into a new directory called "local" and edit that
 * version.  Gallery will look for that file first and use it if it exists.
 *}
<table width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
  <tr valign="top">
    {if !empty($theme.params.sidebarBlocks)}
    <td id="gsSidebarCol">
      {g->theme include="sidebar.tpl"}
    </td>
    {/if}
    <td>
      <div id="gsContent" class="gcBorder1">
        <div class="gbBlock gcBackground1">
          <table style="width: 100%">
            <tr>
              <td>
                {if !empty($theme.item.title)}
                <h2> {$theme.item.title|markup} </h2>
                {/if}

It is the {$theme.item.title|markup}.

In photo.tpl it should look close to this.

You'd have to post the output code, theme files, OR the website URL for me to tell what you need to delete to get rid of that space. My bet would be it is some divs at the top of album.tpl but I'm not sure.

Thank You for your Help... Hillhiker

Good and Simple. Very Clean Theme. What is the word on the next and previous thumbnails? I've checked/unchecked that box and no changes.

So when you check and uncheck "Show micro navigation thumbnails" it doesn't work. Is that what your saying?

You need to edit the table in photo.tpl to change where the navigator pictures go. You will need to remove the if then statement that determines if the picture goes above and below or on the side. Since so many people ask me about this I'm going to in a future version give some options as to where they go. Don't count on that new version soon though.

I just installed 2.1 of gallery and your wonderful greypop theme does not work. Are there any workarounds or updates?

Thanks!

Thanks for doing this mindless. The only issue is if you use the ratings module you need to copy the css at the bottom of the 2.1 matrix theme to the bottom of the theme.css in this theme. Also if you use the theme with it's default grey background you need to come up with different icons for the stars. I'll release version 1.2 when G2.1 gets a bit closer.

Hello. I really am enjoying your theme.
The one question that I have is how to
remove the word "album" in front of the
album name :)

look at the tpl files in the templates directory and modify to suit your needs.. look for the text "Album:" and probably something like showViewCount=true (change to =false)

Great theme! I have a question about the Navigation Menu items we can add. How can I put more space between the items? It is running them all together and I want them spaced apart like the core system links.

After looking at it I think there needs to be more space as well. I've incorporated it in the next version, but until I get it ready just replace these two files in the theme.

I don't know why the system added the .txt extension. Just rename it and unzip.

Edit: attachment has been renamed

Hello,
I just wanted to say that I love your theme. I made the following changes and I wanted to tell you that the micro navigations buttond do not work in your greypopmorespace.zip The zip file before that does work.
I am not sure what needs to be done to fix it but I thought I would let you know.
Presently I am not using the micro buttons because for the life of me I can't figure out how to make them appear on the right and left sides of the picture. :( I suck at code.....
Just in case anyone figures it out can you let me know....

Anyways, I am happy with my layout.

Thanks again
Martie

Update:

I am no longer using this theme...sorry

I've tried the same thing and cant seem to get the next and prev thumnails to work. I've tried multiple browsers, as well as clear the browser cache for each. Ive found that they work ok for me when using the matrix theme, just not with the greypop theme. Any help to fix this would be great. Thanks!

Here is a link to my gallery if you need that http://www.stationary-motion.com/gallery/

As a test try activating the imageframe module and picking one if the frames. Let me know if this works. If it does I have to figure out where I messed up. If not I'll have to think of something else.

Hello,

I have installed greypop. When I go to "All Themes", I see the following error:

Grey theme that makes images POP
Incompatible theme!
Core API Required: 6.5 (available: 7.3)
Theme API Required: 2.1 (available: 2.3)

Any ideas? I'm running the latest version of Gallery 2.1.1

Thanks,
Chris

You must have the commenting module activated or else you will get an error if you click on the link. This doesn't include the code to check to make sure it is active like the slideshow code does. I'm still deciding if and where to add this in. I probibly will but not in the 1.1.1 release.

<span class="block-core-SystemLink">
<a href="{g->url arg1="view=comment.AddComment"
arg2="itemId=`$theme.item.id`"}"> {g->text text="Add Comment"} </a>
</span>

Let me know if you have any problems.

I've done this and it seems to be fine when I'm logged in, however when I log out, I don't see the comments anymore. I'd like guests to be able to see/post comments when they want.

In site Admin check the permissions for view comments.

Perhaps I'm utterly blind, but where exactly is this permissions setting? I've checked every menu option there and I haven't seen anything for comments other than disabling/activating them, if I should show them on the image/album (Image block, etc) and how many to show on the page, let alone permissions for them.

Never mind, I figured it out. It's not under "SITE ADMIN" where one would think it would be, but instead I have to click on one of the album pages and select "EDIT" to change permission for the whole album. For comments. Very intuitive. Perhaps the help you were giving me was for Gallery 1, when I was using Gallery 2. I should probably have specified. Otherwise, you have a nice theme. Thank you for that.

I know I'm boring, but I was wondering if there was a way to make the next/back images/thumbnails be both located under the picture, and only be the photonav_prev and photonav_next icons and not the actual thumbnails. Is that easily done?

I don't remember everything I changed but you might try replacing photo.tpl from the Matrix theme.

lvlthunder: Ok, I'll try that.

EDIT: Yeah, I can switch to the matrix .tpl, but then I lose the functionality of the greypop theme. What I think I'm going to do is have to look at the code and try and figure it out.
