The following information is required to get an answer:
Get this information from the PHP diagnostic (in the configuration wizard).
Gallery URL (optional but very useful): http://www.chicodawg.com/modules/gallery
Gallery version: 1.5.4
Apache version: 1.3.37 (Unix)
PHP version (don't just say PHP 4, please): 4.4.4
Graphics Toolkit: ? ImageMagick
Operating system: Windows XP Home (Server = Unix)
Web browser/version (if applicable): Internet Explorer 7 and Firefox 1.5.0.7

I have been looking in the configuration for Gallery (G1) to enable eCards and cannot find it anywhere. The gallery works fine but there is no link when viewing albums or images to send an eCard.

Where/how do I activate it?

I looked in my albums directories and viewed the albums.dat files and noticed there is a "ecards";N; in the file. Is this the toggle? In config.php, I changed "ecards" to yes. Still no eCard options.

Thanks.

FAQ: I changed a value on Step 3 of the configuration wizard (or in config.php), but the change isn't taking effect. What's going on?

Thanks Tim_j for the info. I saw the FAQ earlier.

After changing the config.php file (ecards = yes), I created an album. Still no eCards.

I cannot enable eCards on existing albums either since that option doesn't appear in the properties box for the album.

The eCards option doesn't appear in the configuration wizard either.

Any other ideas? Thanks again for the help!

Is emailing enabled and configured in the config wizard ?

It wasn't!

Ok, now I get "Enable eCards" in Album properties.

And, now it works.

Thanks for the help!

One more question/error noticed.

When I do the eCard outside the website (by running Gallery directly), everything works fine.

When I run it from the website (embedded), it works, but "Preview" gives me this error:

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /home/(name)/public_html/modules/gallery/classes/Album.php on line 1521
