| Hi there! I just got my encaps started, thanks to your excellent support, but now I have a few questions. Using the raym skin is very close to what I will need. But I would like to use the shopping cart feature for viewers to tag - but without the shopping cart terminology... for example, instead of saying 'buy' under an image, where can I modify it to say 'add to collection' - and can I rid the template of the price, QTY, and total tables in the cart section? Also - is there anyway I can add a search feature to this that will search meta tags of the photos (or the descriptions as an alternative)? You guys are the best... thanks! |

| You can modify the "buy" button with Photoshop, and you can modify the shopcart page with html editor. And you can include the search form from the "html/simple_sc" template |

Hello,
I'd like to use the PHP Photo Gallery strictly for the backend and code my own front end - are there a hostload of issues with that, or can I use access the MySQL database to dynamically generate my own displays? |

Hello,
yes, you can build your own front-end by accessing the MySQL database |

Thank you very much! (Sorry for posting multiple times)
Does the backend store the original, plus a full size compressed version and a thumbnail or are those generated on demand by front end? |
|

Thumbnails are not generated by front-end, but by back-end.
Original images are located inside the "rwx_gallery" directory, thumbnails are located inside the "rwx_gallery/thumbs" directory |

When using the raym template, how can I display the latest pictures for the main category?
Right now the parent caregory is blank, then when I click the child it shows the childs images, so it works, but trying to add to it... |

I see, you are using encapsgallery-1.7.12, where parent categories do not show subcategory contents. This feature was implemented later (since encapsgallery-1.7.15 I believe).
I can try to copy this feature from v.1.7.20 into 1.7.12, but can't promice, how long it will take. |

Hi, is there anyway to embed the gallery script inside another page?
I'm trying to use the <?php include("gallery/index.php"); ?>
reference and just keep getting errors |

Hi,
you can include the gallery script "catalog.php" inside other page in same directory. But don't try to include from subdirectory.
I mean you can do:
<?php include("catalog.php"); ?>
but not
<?php include("gallery/catalog.php"); ?>
Or you can copy your website header and footer html code inside catalog_head.html and catalog_foot.html,
Or include your header and footer instead of catalog_head.html and catalog_foot.html |

Any code available that will display only specific information on the main page only? I've tried:
if ( strstr($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], 'index.php') ) {
I have limited knowledge with php. I am trying to show certain html based on which area of the gallery you are in... Hope it makes since. |

I installed all the components on my server than I configured the db parameters (MySQL server name, DB name, user name and password.
but I still get this message when I try to run installation script
Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Unknown MySQL Server Host 'obiwaan.privatedns.com' (1) in /home/www2/ateliersmagellan.com/gallery/core/db_sql.class.php on line 13

nslookup said obiwaan.privatedns.com - non-existent domain.
Are you sure domain name is valid? Could you ask your hosting provider for valid database settings? |

Hello and congratulations!!
From all the comments in the forum, it appears you have grown this application from infancy to that of a well-adjusted young adult. I hope it continues to age with grace :)
I am very interested in trying the application. I have (at least, at the moment) one question that I could not find currently in the forum.
I anticipate using the application for a photography site.
Within the shopping cart, I will have multiple prices per image, depending on the size of the image the customer might want. Not having downloaded the software yet, this option may already be available (and hopefully configurable), so I apologize if this is redundant.
Is there a way to accomplish multiple prices for a single item, depending on the customer selection of an appropriate radio button or selection?
As an example (always talking about the one picture the customer chose to buy)
- 4x6 picture for $2
- 5x7 of the same picture for $4
- 8x10 of the same picture for $6
If this is already there, what is the limit?
Thank you for your time. Again, CONGRATULATIONS on what seems to be a decent success, and I hope that you have been partially rewarded in that the majority of your downloaders, have paid for the code, and are more than just freeloaders! :) |

Hello, thank you for the feedback.
The feature you described is not implemented with EncapsGallery. Let me think about. |

Creating directories with thumb folders in each? How much more coding would it take? Example: When you scan for new files can it be created to scan for directories, and if it found a new directory with images, create thumbs for each in the new directory?
I am attempting to try some older code I have to do it, but I will have to incorporate flat file coding, I didn't think requiring the mysql was necessary. Any similar ideas that are out there, sorry; I read through about 15 pages of the posts didn't see anything.

Same topic; If not able to scan for directories what if you could create it and upload images to the new directory? Then scan that directory to associate the uploaded images?
I will be uploading sometimes 200 photos at a time, not sure if the solo directory of images will hold up after the number of images builds up. |

Hi, the feature you described was implemented with EncapsGallery-1.7.12, you can download it here: http://***.encaps.net/software/encapsgallery/old/encapsgallery-1.7.12.zip
But this feature is disabled from current release v.1.7.20, because of a bit more complex configuration. |

| Exactly what I was looking for! Only problem is the Newest images aren't showing up for the Parent Category... I'll play around with it... thanks!! Great Job. |
