Hey guys is there currently a problem with the gallery.
Allot of my users are complaining saying that when they add a new image to a gallery. Their thumbnail changes but the larger image that opens remains the same as the image that was initially duplicated.
This can be found on a few of my cubicaquarium gallery, my bcakestudio gallery, my swpbasketball gallery just to name a few incase you wanna go and check it out.
Try one of these:
£
or
£
;)
Basically any changes I make in the SEO Meta Description box are not getting saved. (on one of my sites)
I am editing text in the Meta Description box > pressing the 'save changes' button waiting for the cms to finish loading. Going back into the SEO and my changes have not been saved.
The title and keywords saves fine. It's only happening on http://www.theskinpharmacy.co.uk
Confused?
For whatever reason the image gallery's seem to be working fine in Chrome and Firefox but not in Internet Explorer. Instead of the Lightbox JavaScript box working it's simply opening the image in a new window.
Here are examples of the links:
http://www.bcakestudio.co.uk/wedding-cakes.html
and
http://www.fromtipstotoes.co.uk/photo-gallery.html
Any reason why this is happening?
Excellent Simon,
You never seize to amaze me.
Hey Simon, I completely get with your coming from.
Really pleased with the results and feedback I'm getting from clients.
If your taking suggestions: Perhaps a box in which you can enter a caption or description for the picture. You know the description that appears at the bottom of a lightbox. This would be a really nice feature. At the moment I'm having to go into the code and add a caption to each image on behalf of my clients.
Is this a possibility?
This is great - really good work guys.
Was just wondering:
"The other copy will not be cropped but it will be re-sized to match the width of the existing larger image."
Has this got to apply? What if the you want the newly uploaded image to be a different size to the previous image? What if the existing image was a landscape photo and the new image your uploading is portrait?
Brilliant - Gonna' test this bad boy out on the weekend :)
Hi Simon,
Great thanks,
I have this feature on many pages but it's all with the same mark-up. you can try it on this one http://www.bcakestudio.co.uk/celebration-cakes.html
I think it is working. If you could just confirm that it would be great.

Any update on this guys?
Hey Simon any joy on the above?
Having a slight issue with the repeat are function on my image galleries.
This is aimed more at Simon and the simpleCMS team but if anyone else has any ideas then let me know.
Basically I have a light-box plugin working on most of my websites galleries. I have added the edit-repeat class to the thumbnails which allows me to duplicate a thumb and then change the thumb to a new image. Now when the thumbnail is clicked (in real time) it simply opens the same fullsize image as the object that was duplicated before. So I assumed if I changed the "update link" to the correct fullsize image path then that should work. And it did. The new fullsize image opened when the new thumbnail image was clicked. But the problem is that the "update link" to the original thumbnail that we duplicated in the first place has also now changed to the new one entered.
So the code now looks like for example:
<a href="images/gallery_image_5.jpg" rel="lightbox" id=n18">
<img class="gallery-image edit-repeat" src="http://www.fromtipstotoes.co.uk/images/gallery_image_4_thumb.jpg" width="160" height="120" alt="" id="n16"/>
<img class="gallery-image edit-repeat" src="http://www.fromtipstotoes.co.uk/images/gallery_image_5_thumb.jpg" width="160" height="120" alt="" id="n17"/>
</a>
When it should look like this:
<a href="images/gallery_image_4.jpg" rel="lightbox" id="n18">
<img class="gallery-image edit-repeat" src="http://www.fromtipstotoes.co.uk/images/gallery_image_4_thumb.jpg" width="160" height="120" alt="" id="n16"/>
</a>
<a href="images/gallery_image_5.jpg" rel="lightbox" id=n19">
<img class="gallery-image edit-repeat" src="http://cms.simplecms.com/tmp/sites/25332/0-cms-0-1-marys-nails.jpg" alt="" id="n11"/>
</a>
Basically it's not duplicating the area with it's own link and it's using the same "update link" to the fullsize image for both thumbnails.
What I need is for a thumbnail to be duplicated (repeated) but when the image link is changed then it's changed for that thumbnail only.
Hope you understand what I mean - I tried to explain the best I could.

It actually does allow for links to larger images.. the only problem I find with it is how the user can upload the larger image and in turn know the url to that image
Only just noticed your post Simon.
This is great - really impressed and it's working like a charm. :)
Thanks for your help
Simon 9 "liked the old system much more user friendly"
You gotta' be kidding right?
haha i see what you done there buster.. for the new version i'm changing my guess to 1,328
Was just wondering how many members (accounts) does everything think simplecms has?
I was thinking this to myself earlier. We should all have a guess and then perhaps Simon or Gavin will tell us which one of us is closest.
I'l start the ball rolling i rekon' around 6,000 (may be way off but I honestly have no idea)

Ok thanks Simon, Looking forward to the individual branding.. that would be really awesome and helpful :)
Was just wondering if this is possible:
Basically I have a client who's domain is http://www.theskinpharmacy.co.uk.
I set up a CNAME (cms.theskinpharmacy.co.uk) pointing to updating.net and set my CNAME to cms.theskinpharmacy.co.uk in the branding section
so when i go to cms.theskinpharmacy.co.uk - all is good my logo displays and my colour scheme is correct.
But this is only for one user. say for example I have another client with the domain http://www.cubicaquarium.com
I have done exactly the same - set up a CNAME (cms.cubicaquarium.com) but is there anyway I can get my logo to display on this page.
I thought maybe if I pointed the CNAME at http://rt-media.updating.net/ then it should technically work but it doesn't .
Is there anyway of making this work or am I trying to do something that isn't possible?

Is there a way in which you can assign the ability to a user so that they can edit the HTML code?
I know I can edit the code as an admin. But is there a way in which a user can do this. If I click Permissions > User Settings then this option isn't there?
Just wondering if there is a way you can define a jQuery light-box using simplecms
if you look at this http://www.fromtipstotoes.co.uk/photo-gallery.html you will see that the user has successfully been able to update thumbnails using the cms but the larger/main image hasnt changed and it won't let me define the area via the simple cms.
Is there anyway around this?
