Glad to hear it's working--doing an Update on the module should do the same thing, not sure why it didn't since I believe you said you were doing that. I have my XOOPS general preference "Update module template .html files..." set to "yes", not sure if that is the difference.

I tried that as well, but it made no difference. I believe (but won't swear to it) that the "update module" code is not updating that particular template in the database.

It does something else odd too, in that it appears to reset one particular value to the default: the number of images that appear in the "New Images" block. I like to have that set to 4, but every time I update Gallery, it is changed back to 3 - whereas other values are exactly as I set them.

That said, I didn't even realize you could include HTML markup in the descriptions.
I didn't know it as possible either... until I tried it.

Anyway, I just decided to throw that in for the heck of it... "it doesn't hurt to ask".

Anyway, thanks again for your help here! I appreciate you taking the time! I will now have a go at adding the description text to other pages, per your suggestions.

It is supposed to reset the preferences back to default values when you do an update (as of XOOPS 2.0.4?? it does that). It's also supposed to get those templates, not sure why it isn't.

No problem. Just trying to 1) get this working for myself and 2) share the results and 3) help out others where I can. All for fortune and glory... yeah, right

OK, I just figured that out. I cloned the templates in order to be able to change the layout of the "New Images" block. I assumed - wrongly, it turns out - that the cloned templates would get updated. They don't.

So that was my bad. It just hit me a few moments ago. How embarrassing!

But that does leave me wondering... why is it that you can't edit default templates, yet they do go through the update process...

Oh never mind... I guess I still need to get used to XOOPS. I'm new to it, having moved to it from phpWebSite and myPHPNuke before that.

Anyway, thanks again! If you're ever in Bournemouth, I owe you at least several beers!

Yeah, the templates can seem a little counter-intuitive in some ways, but it pretty much makes sense. The system ones are RO through the GUI to prevent someone who isn't diving into the source files from ruining their XOOPS installation. At least I think that is why they are like that.

Yes, that does make sense. I guess I'm just not used to that level of protection, and so it never entered my mind when dealing with this.

Btw, I tried the mods you suggested earlier for "view album" and "view photo" and they work perfectly!

I hope you do! I moved to the UK 3 years ago, and really love it here!

I found the way to correct this is a fix in the xoopsgallery/xoops_version.php file. At line 151, change this:
$modversion['config'][12]['valuetype'] = 'int';
$modversion['config'][12]['default'] = '--';
$modversion['config'][12]['options'] = array('--' => '--', 'shutterfly' => 'shutterfly');


To this:
$modversion['config'][12]['valuetype'] = 'text';
$modversion['config'][12]['default'] = 'none';
$modversion['config'][12]['options'] = array('none' => 'none', 'shutterfly' => 'shutterfly', 'shutterfly without donation' => 'shutterfly without donation');


That will allow the preference to save properly.

Note: This only affects the default for new albums. For existing albums, go to the album "properties" and change the print service to "none" in there.

Me again.

I just noticed that a line in xoopsgallery_index.html doesn't look quite right...

<td style="padding 10px;" width="<{$album.image.width}>" height="<{$album.image.height}>"><{$album.image.image}>a>td>


Note the closing ... which suggests that there should be a link. In fact, it makes sense to link the album thumb to the album too, not just the album name. So I changed the line to:

<td style="padding 10px;" width="<{$album.image.width}>" height="<{$album.image.height}>"><a href="<{$album.image.link}>"><{$album.image.image}>a>td>


and tested it... works fine.

I'm always clicking on the image instead of the link too--I've updated mt template and it works for me too. I'll be sure to include this in the updated package.

Thanks!
