Hello, I have Wpg2 3.0.2 installed on WP 2.3.2 with the blue zinfandel theme from Aylwin. I can see all the uploaded images and g2 images of the posts on my home page but none of them appear in the archives pages or category pages... I have looked through the forum but it seems no one had the same problem... anyone has an idea ? |

The most likely cause would be a bad WP permalink rule that is some how interfering with the G2 URL. When you look at your page, can you see the image (they appear broken) or no image at all??

I have no image at all, here is the source code of the page :
My Gallery2 rewrite module validation is all ok but the module is off(safe), the URL rewrite module on Gallery is off, if II put it on, I get this message error :
Should I customize url rewrite in Gallery in a certain way ?

hmmmm
I just realized that I am running Gallery 2.2.1, could that be the problem ? That would be a shame cuz everything seems to work so well except from that.
While waiting for a Gallery update, would there be a way to see those images in the category and archive pages ?
I realized that if I put the "default" permalink option I don't have the fatal G2 error but I still can't see the images on the pages (on the post page itself it works fine though).
Another test : with URL rewrite "off" on Gallery and the permalink option on "default" :
http://www.coquille.org/words/category/beijing/ (written by hand, not through the link on the page)
is working well, I can see all the images
http://www.coquille.org/words/?cat=4
is not working well
but if I set the permalinks on "date and name based" (URL rewrite "off" on Gallery), it is not working, I cannot see the images.
Looks like the problem is such a detail somehow, very frustrating

FYI: Default in WP speak = No permalinks.. I just had a look at your site and it looks like the default category view for your WP theme is the post summary, not the full post which could be the issue (notice the ... in a few of your posts). Can you please switch your WP theme quickly back to the standard WP theme and see if you can see your photos in the category view then (you should be able to)..
As for your error "Here's the error from G2: Error (ERROR_MISSING_OBJECT) : Parent 7 path 2008" I seen errors before, basically G2 cannot work out how to generate the rewrite url thus why it is failing. In your Gallery2 Site Admin Panel -> URL Rewrite -> Test make sure the test is returning mod_rewrite, it should be.

thanx for that quick reply Ozgreg,
the default post view is "full text" on my wp theme syndication feed in the reading options, is there a category view or archive view options that I haven't seen ? Could it be the size of the post block ? (10 lines)
I have changed the theme to the default WP theme, and as you said, everything is working fine.
I thought it could be a specific problem with the Aylwin theme but cannot check as he does not have any images in his posts on his site.
Note : the two last posts (Test en photo horizontale+Test en photo verticale) have images linked to uplaoded files in WP, so is it realy an url rewrite problem ?

No it is the way the WP [url= http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/the_excerpt]excerpt[/url] is being built that is causing your issue.. WPG2 can parse tags in the_excerpt but for some reason your theme is not allowing this.. I found a WP plugin that may help you with your issue..

thank you,
ok,
I have installed and activated Excerpt and it works partly, except for the two first posts, and some images are not well positionned. When I reactivate Gallery URL rewrite, I still get the error message

Did you see my post regarding this
"As for your error "Here's the error from G2: Error (ERROR_MISSING_OBJECT) : Parent 7 path 2008" I seen errors before, basically G2 cannot work out how to generate the rewrite url thus why it is failing.

Yes I already answered you upper in the post that when I test I get a successullf answer :
tha'ts why I don't get it, maybe I should just change theme, and start all over again, cuz with the default WP theme, everything works just fine....
Aylwin also writes that his themes are customized for WPG2 2 and is not sure it might work with wpg2 3..

I am not sure if this issue is theme related or something to do with your rewrites. Guess testing your site using the default WP theme should test if it is theme related..

Actually you're right Ozgreg, I checked the other themes with the url rewrite on off on Gallery, as soon as I put it on, I got the same problem with the WP default theme :
Note : On WP default theme, when I have the URL rewrite off, the pics are displayed properly on category and archive pages....so I am going to stick to that one, for the moment.
I tested the URL rewrite on Gallery and it definitely gives me a "success" answer.

Unfortunately I do not know how I can help you with your "(ERROR_MISSING_OBJECT) : Parent 7 path 2008" error, Kirk and I have seen it in a half a dozen postings but neither of us have been able to nail down why G2 url generator is not finding the path, I know from long experience that WP&G2 rewrites in certain situations on certain hosting platforms just do not play well together and unfortunately it looks like you have hit one of these situations..
