Hi, I bought the Pro version and have installed it on Joomla 1.0.13. Changed configuration settings for:-

galleries root folder /images/photos/
thumbnails temp folder /images/photos/temp/

All other settings as default.

I put some jpg's in my localhost sitename/images/photos folder
I created a temp folder in my localhost sitename/images/photos/temp for the thumbnails.

I added {gallery}images/photos{/gallery} to a static content page.

When I look at the page in IE7 the images do not show up.

Ive tried changing the properties to the images folder and images/temp folders from readonly using windows explorer and ftp but they stay as readonly. Is this causing the problem or is it something to do with the 'gallery'tag ive put in the static content.

Any ideas please?  :(

hi my friend!

SIG pro, have as defined

galleries root folder /images/photos/
thumbnails temp folder /images/photos/temp/

as you said!

if you have a folder, named myimages, inside the foot folderyou have just write the mambot code as next
in your case, when you writethe mambot try to find the folder images/photos/images/photos!

Get it?!  :) ;)

You can send me if you want a link to see the issue in action!

Thank you!

Hi, thanks for the quick reply. i have the following code in the Text part of the static content item:-

{gallery}images/photos{/gallery}

The generated html looks like this:-

<p>test </p><p><strong>{gallery}images/photos{/gallery}</strong></p>

But nothing shows when I view the page.

Is it as simple as adding that one line of code in the static content?

In the troubleshooting section on admin your documentation says about if the thumbnails do not show up at all make sure the temp folder is writeable. It is set as readonly but if I change it when I go back and look at the properties it is still readonly. I use XP Pro for development and Apache as the local server. How do I permanantly change these permissions. Maybe that is what is causing the problem. Cheers.

Hi my friend!

Can you give us a link to see it in action?  ;)
Well, with this codeyou say at mambot to search for images at folder
www.yoursite.com/images/stories/images/stories
if we suppose that you have leave the default paths in the mambot params!

Look, create a folder, named "test" inside the path www.yoursite.com/images/stories
and then use this mambot code
I hope this will help you!
If not, please send me a PM with a link and a s.administrator account!

Thank you!

Thanks vinikey, I now have it working. I really appreciate the quick response and advice. Thanks again for your help.
