    thumbnail gallery problems and recommendations

    Posted 17 years 3 weeks ago
    • Hi,

      I'm switching to Chromatophore, and I'm running into issues that seem to continously exist between RT and thumbnail galleries. I want to setup some thumbnail galleries, but I need the gallery to be able to handle folders and captions. By folders, I mean I don't want to have to hard-code every entry into the gallery, and I want the ability to have just one image used as the "display" image for that gallery.

      From what I can see, rokzom just won't do it. I've tried using the simple image gallery pro, which supports multiple engines, but I still can't get it to run - the images open up in new tabs and the vendor usually points to conflicts between it and RT.

      Can anyone recommend a thumbnail gallery that works with RT and provides the functionality that I've described? I'd love to see RT provide this sort of functionality in rokzoom some day...

    • Have you tried setting the display option of Simple Image Gallery Pro to use Greybox? Using this option I have had it working properly with a number of different RT templates that use mootools. There have been some recent suggestions from the SIG Pro developers in their forum as to how to solve the Mootools conflicts , but I have yet to find the time to read them and try them.

    • Thanks. I'll check out the forum again (and try this new one). I think part of the problem is that the SIG developer needs to figure out what to change in each RT template, which from his point of view, is surely a pita.

      The shadowbox gallery also looks interesting.
