Gallery extension 0.6.0 example

Ruby Apps Radiant CMS
1

Hi there. I’ve just release a 0.6.0 version of the gallery extension.
Many people ask me how to implement a full gallery system, with
nested gallery (or album of galleries), and final page for an image.
I implemented some new features and here you can see an example:

http://gor.bigchieflabs.com/gallery-extension-example/

gallery-extension-example is a page of Gallery type.

url like this:

gallery-extension-example/bigchief-toys/original-toy

…call the gallery-extension-example page and specifies to show the
“original-toy” gallery that is under the “bigchief-toys” gallery.
Let me know your impressions or suggestion.
Thank you!

Excellent update, Andrea. Glad to see thumbnail cropping is now
working as well!

Thanks!

Andrea, on your example page it looks like your thumbnails are
cropped version of the full image. How did you do this? I can’t find
a way in the image edit page…

Thanks!

Okay, I get it.

If you’re considering a crop, it would be great to use the cropper
tool to set the thumbnail. :wink:

Nice image gallery, the layout is great. When ever I select one image in
a
horizontal row, I get the image preselect box extending horizontally
left
across the page to the left margin. This looks a bit weird and I will
send a
screenshot directly to you, so you can see.

Cheers, Ben.

P.S. Who is The Big Chief?

The thumbnails are not cropped…thet are the background of a div.
Their size are a little bigger then the div, and it looks like
cropping, but it’s not.
I’m think about a crop tag for the next release…maybe something like:

<r:gallery:item:crop crop_width=“100” crop_height=“100”
crop_position=“center” />

…but i don’t know :stuck_out_tongue:

Andrea, if you use:

-moz-outline: none;

… in the CSS for the link, you can turn off this highlighting.

Are you talking about the image or the link selection…if you talk
about ther selection, it’s because I use “text-indent: -9999px” for
the link of the image…let me know :stuck_out_tongue:

Cheers, Ben.

The gallery extension is superb and thanx for the great work.

But i have one newbie question.

Is it somehow possible to order (descending) and limit the gallery items
on the index page in a way as it’s possible with: <r:children:each
limit=“2” order=“desc”>

I would like to achive something like this:

<r:gallery:if_index>
<r:galleries:each limit=“2” order=“desc”>
…
</r:galleries:each >
</r:gallery:if_index>

Thx
David
