Great script and love the design, having issues using with php include, doesnt want to read the galleries. pointing to the complete path including http:// gives permission errors. thought I would throw this up in case anyone else was having same issue.

also noticed that on and off category bar will vanish and return on different page loads, the script is still more than I could do with code though. kudos

Can you provide me with the URL of where you have this installed? Or can you give me the full error you get prior to modifying anything?

Hi there,
I’m just checked out your script localhost, and it looks fine!
Just the script use for categories a select box. I would like to use your script for a directory with currently 5 folders and more than 90 subfolders in it.
Is there a way to use instead of the ‘select’ a list menu, for example
./?action=add&folder=MyAlbum… ?

In the “inc/functions.php” file around line 106 you can modify the code following “//Navigation Drop-Down” to use something different, that is where the drop-down is built.

Hello, I love Simple Gallery v2 its exactly what i was looking for.
Can you tell me how to increase the number of rows of thumbnails without having to make them smaller? I put the size to 150 and it just 2 columns, ideally id like it to fill the full width of the screen.
Thank you

You should be able to simply adjust the with of the div#wrap tag in the style.css. As you increase the width, more columns of images will fit.

Hello Again,
Also can you tell me how to swap the drop down list and the Main_Gallery_Title round….I prefer for the dropdown list be underneath the title.
Much appreciated.
Thanks

In the “inc/functions.php” file there is a simple_gallery() function. You will need to bring the 3 lines of code starting with “//Category H2″ up just above the “//Navigation Drop-Down” line of code. This function starts around line 103 of that file.

I really like this and have customized it quite a bit to match the theme of the site I have put it into. One question I do have is, am I able to use a URL to go directly to a directory in the gallery?
In other words, instead of going straight to the beginning to select a category is there a way to use a url as if I have already selected a category?
Thanks in advance…great work!
November 5th, 2011 - 13:37
Nevermind. I figured it out looking at your functions.php and realized what it was doing when running the commands using the menu options. In short here is what worked for me.
/?action=add&folder=/FOLDERNAME

Do you know how the drop down menu for the gallery sorts the folders in the gallery? I’ve noticed that it doesn’t seem to have a specific that I can tell. I would like to be able to specify if that is at all possible.
November 8th, 2011 - 11:56
At this time there is no way to manually sort the folders. The script reads the directory on the fly and will list out any folders it finds in alpha-numeric order.

I’ve made a donation to avoid the donation links at the buttom – how will it be removed.
And – is the a way to remove the SiteName and GalleryTitle?
November 25th, 2011 - 15:20
John,
Please provide me with the URL you have the script installed on and I will get the donation links removed for you.
The site name and gallery titles can be removed by deleting or commenting out lines 105 & 120 in the “/inc/functions.php” file.

Hi stephen and thanks for a great scrip.
Im trying to get started on photography and this script is perfect for me!
I made a small donation so that I can include this gallery on my page without the “Donate” advert in the bottom. If everything goes well and I start making money on my photos ill gladly donate more but for now, I was wondering why its not dissapeared yet!?
Kind regards/ Rasmus Lindberg

Thank you Stephen for your reply to my email and fixing the ad removal!
Cheers! : )

is there anyway to limit the amount of images per page so its not an endless page of images?
also instead of the drop down box is it possible to just have the categories in a list and in image form. so it would be a small .png for each category?
December 16th, 2011 - 02:02
also, is there anyway to remove fancybox and have the image open on a new page with ads?
December 16th, 2011 - 15:03
In the “inc/functions.php” file around line 133 & 135 you can modify the code for the image link to link to whatever you would like, remove the ‘class=”img_zoom”‘ if you wish not to use fancybox for the opening method.

At this time, image pagination is not a part of the script.
