Hi,

I want to integrate the Gallery 2 in Joomla 1.5. Everything went well but when I tried to integrate the sidebar I couldn't start the gallery anymore. When I click on the menu I get a blank page. What did I do wrong?

Thanks

Did you use one of the joomla integrations? or on your own?

Could you be more vague?

Well, for you to be able to show the sidebarblocks outside of gallery you must first disable gallery's own:
$gallery->setConfig('showSidebarBlocks', false);
and then use the html returned from GalleryEmbed::handleRequest(); like so:

$g2data = GalleryEmbed::handleRequest();
if ($g2data['isDone']) {
    exit;
}
GalleryEmbed::done();

//Show the sidebarblocks
foreach($g2data['sidebarBlocksHtml'] as $snippet){
    echo $snippet;
}
