K2 image gallery and SIG pro was created by pabs11
hi

I bought SIGPro hoping it would resolve the issues K2 has with SIG and the images gallery feature. Having scoured forums here and at K2 community for the last few 4 weeks I still can't find or resolve the issue.

I'm sure you're familiar with it - I've seen it posted here with only one solution I've seen that's supposed to have worked ( I think ) and that was totally reinstalling K2, SIG, AllVideos. I'd prefer to make this a last resort and I'm not sure that will work anyway ( just a gut feeling - I've done some individual uninstall / reinstalls previously ). I'll try an uninstall of allvideos tomorrow for starters ( it's 4am here now )

Has there been a general resolution to this prob yet? ( The Problem :  that when you try to upload an images zip package to the images gallery in a K2 item, the images load ok to the designated folder, but no thumbs appear, just the text header " images gallery " )

I've tried various suggestions at K2 forums but no luck yet.

SIG Pro otherwise works fine in Joomla articles elsewhere - but not in the images gallery of K2

thanks, P

For the benefit of anyone that the info might help :

The issue with getting the image gallery tab in K2 to display images both in the preview area of the K2 admin tab, and online, was resolved ( surprisingly ) by tidying up all the file types of the images ie no inappropriate symbols like hyphens, spaces, numbers or capitals the file type text - to be sure, just in case, I made all the image file names one word, not even any underscores, as well.

I then deleted any previous image uploads in the image gallery tab feature, and re - uploaded the the new images freshly re-zip archived, and all was good. I also had full yse of all the display engine options in SIG Pro ( mootools / jquery etc - they all worked ).

I must also add that I have both the standard and pro versions of SIG installed, and some others have advised this as a possible solution to getting SIG pro to work in K2. I will test SIG Pro without the standard version also being installed over the next few days however, just to see.

But many thanks to Yiota for the help. I'm going to post this at K2 forums as well, as I know many are having trouble with SIG and K2.
