[Solved] Problem integrating with k2.. error finding folder

Category: Simple Image Gallery PRO

Hello Katia
I did this " Please install Admin Tools from www.akeebabackup.com/ in order to fix your permissions as they should be and then reinstal the extension" I fixed the permissions for the cache folder and the media folder( from 755 to 777) but I still get this message both in the front and backend:
There was a problem rendering your image gallery. Please make sure that the folder you are using in the Simple Image Gallery PRO plugin tags exists and contains valid image files. The plugin could not locate the folder: media/k2/galleries/28
I installed it, uninstalled it, enabled it, installed the new 2.5.6 v again, I tried changing the root folder for image galleries to :media/k2/galleries, tried everything you have told me.
I purchased this because you guys said that it was the easiest way to integrate with k2 but so far that hasnt happened. Is there any other way you could help me, is there any other thing I can try or was that it???
this is a link to a page in my site where I get the mistake www.criaderoaristogatos.com/gatos/gatos-persas/hembras-reproductoras/item/28-persa-molly.html
thank you

Tags for dummies.............? was created by Paul Zaal

Tags for dummies.............?

Category: English K2 Community

Yes, I'm new to K2 also and the component looks great. Thanks.

Figured most things out, except for one thing. After hours of trying (and searching/reading this forum) I cannot discover how to deal with tags. I've created some tags in K2 (all green) and I added tags to items (there is no metadata in the items yet). The tagcloud shows up fine (with the right words) but nothing happens after clicking e.g. something happens (i can see some lines marking the end of an item) but the item itself (text) isn't there.

What did I forget/do wrong ?

Need advice for holiday listing site.

Category: English K2 Community

Hey all, I'm still new to K2 and want to learn what and how it can do things for me. I want to create a site where people can list their holiday homes. I'm struggling a bit with the struckture as I need:
Location: 9 provinces
city/town: many more
type of accomodation: b&b, hotel, self catering and so on.

What will the best way be to approach this?

Also I can't seem to find tutorials or more manuals regarding extra fields and ways how to use it.
And how to work with Tags.

Assistance with this will be highly appreciated.

Thank you

Problems with "tags" displaying in search

Category: English K2 Community

Hi there,

Sorry my first post is not a helpful post but one asking for help! :blush:

I have setup a listing but the problem as per the title is that when I add a new tag say "french fries" for a post about burger shop it will add the tag fine but when it comes to searching typing "french fries" it results in nothing.

I have enabled the plugin Search - K2 and made sure "Enable searching in tags" is set to yes.

Looking in the Tags section (backend) I can see the tags are published fine and also when viewing the article in the frontend I can see the tags at the bottom.

I have tried searching for tags of items which are in the main section through to sub categories but still nothing

The tags will show up if I add them to the meta keywords but this is only a temp workaround I can find for now.

Ideally I need to have the default K2 tools module working fine as I plan to have a search button for each section


Joomla 1.7

Read More Button

Category: English K2 Community

Hello at the community,

I'm new with K2, and I explore little by little all the features of the tool.
I'd like to know if it should be possible to use a real "read more button" instead of the link lost after the tags of the article.

For example, please see on my site, I'd like to have the same button as in the roktabs module published on my site (www.whitefoxradio.com)

Thanks a lot for your help !

Bonsoir,

J'utilise K2 depuis peu, et le lien "lire la suite" perdu après les tags ne me convient pas, n'y a-t-il pas plutôt un moyen d'ajouter carrément un bouton bien visible juste après les 2-3 premières lignes ?

Pour aperçu, j'aimerais que le bouton apparaisse tel que sur les onglets du module roktabs visible sur mon site www.whitefoxradio.com

Merci d'avance pour votre aide !

Welcome aboard.

A couple of quick responses.

1) Customisation. K2 code is one of the best I have come across, its all modular and chunks of code can easily be moved around. I am no php coder and I find it easy, but dont ask me to right code for you :)

Something that has been released in the last couple of weeks is a new K2 Template Manager extension which allows backend editing of code and css. But its not at the drag n drop stage yet. It also allows new templates to be installed.

Changing font sizes and colours of elements of K2 is not something it was originally intended for.
This is not a template framework where the customisation of style is expected, its a content creator, the focus being the content which of course can still be modified any way the user wishes via the WYSIWYG editor.

Styling of elements would be down to the template designer not the user/content creator and its all easily done using css. Perhaps thats a consideration though.

Not sure what the expectation was for 2.5 as it always been billed as the version for J1.7 with a few tweaks and no major new features.

2) SIG Pro, some may see it as demanding, but its only 12 euro for the full version and its pretty feature packed. It was also released before K2 in the free and Pro versions and K2 is free anyway. There are a lot of users that dont use the gallery, but in comparison, what price could be put on K2?
You dont even have to use it, there's always the ability of creating your own galleries inline with the content, but then weigh up the cost of the extra time to do it.

3) Images can be a problem if they are not resized before upload or if thought hasn't been put on the needed sizes in the design. A little trial an error might be required in the design stage, but it is then a known factor of what is required for further images. Simply, if your going to want to upload a 100px image and display it at 600px, the results are obvious.


Keep the feedback coming.

Category: English K2 Community

Congratulations for the new release,

This project is looking great, signed up to the greek translation team and contributed there, it definitely looks like a very handy extension...

I have been experimenting with two-three CCKs the last couple of weeks for a news site I am building, and I am trying to find the one that would maximize production efficiency for me while still offering all the extra options and customization...

K2 is absolutely top for ease of use/ small learning curve - at least of one is happy with the layout and the readily offered options...

What I think is missing greatly, apart from absolutely needed documentation, is:

1)user friendly customization....
...this is where K2 lags far behind ZOO...
Editing and customizing layouts is a straight-forward process in ZOO, even if one does not read the documentation and simply starts playing with the backend options (this joomla-template conception of the article, category layout is genius, and dragging-dropping feature makes it really easy) .
Doing something similar in K2 seems to necessitate coding skills and experience and it's not something that is even accessible from the backend...

But besides this type of customization, more options should have been more readily available, from the most simple like, e.g. choosing a font for the title, choosing the font weight for the introtext etc...
In general, I believe much is needed to make several customization options more readily available to the user...

Since I had tried the previous version for Joomla 1.5 and taking into account the intervening period, I had much higher expectation for K2 for this new release...

2) I don't think it is really nice that it demands the purchase of the PRO version of Simple Image Gallery to make use of the gallery feature.

3) It would be great to have percentages too for the article images for the various views (category, article etc)
Have not tested it yet with the new release, but with 2.4.1, an image of smaller resolution than that set for XL, would get stretch beyond its native resolution....that is quite unecessary...

4) I would have liked the option to integrate K2 with the default article administration system...the reason would be to avoid the extra paths in the url, if this is a valid reason for you...

Dear All,

I've installed 2.5 over 2.4, everything fine except, In the administrator the formatting of text is all with underscores, like this:

-K2_ITEMS
-K2_CATEGORIES
-K2_TAGS
-K2_EXTRA_FIELDS
-K2_USER_GROUPS
etc.

It seems that the lanuage file is not being loaded, en-GB.com_K2.ini
I've tried copying this file also to the other languages, but the results in the backend are the same.

Anyone has an idea to solve this?

At the moment, you may only use FLICKR in K2 by adding tags in the content item text area.

Backend - Edit or New Article - Content Image Field Area Not Visible

Category: English K2 Community

When I create a new article or edit an existing article, the content input area is missing.  So is the image area. You can select the tabs, but nothing appears below. I cannot add content or images. I cannot see the current content or images. Content is showing up on the front end. I have tried installing the System - SC jQuery and enabled Mootools upgrade and that didn't help.

The plugin could not locate the folder

Category: Simple Image Gallery PRO

Hello,

i already read some topics, but i didn't found anything usefull.

So I successfully installed SIG Pro and enable the plugin. The uploading of the image is also successfull and the gallery folder is created in directory media/k2/galleries/3, also the images of the gallery can be found there.

Anyways the problem is that there is an error saying  "There was a problem rendering your image gallery. Please make sure that the folder you are using in the Simple Image Gallery PRO plugin tags exists and contains valid image files. The plugin could not locate the folder: media/k2/galleries/3"

I have checked the permissions already and I think they're fine.

I noticed also one thing. When I wan't to change the root of galleries in plugin settings for e.g. images/stories, the error is the same without changing the directory.

Does anyone know where is the problem?

You can check it out here: demo.iluminet.si/mak/reference/item/3-novi-projekt-v-poslovnih-re%C5%A1itvah.html

Simple Image Gallery Pro Thumbnails Not Displaying [SOLVED]

Category: Simple Image Gallery PRO

Hi,
I have had a lot of trouble with my thumbnails not displaying, neither at back end not front end.
Solution: the file names can not have any caps, hyphens, dashes, etc. Simple lower caps names with no spaces (use undrscores) and numbers. Delete what you have, upload the files again, and it works

However, I am quite furious with Joomlaworks that this is not in the instructions. Also, I am using K2, so I had to discover that I had to change the path in the SIG Pro plugin to the K2 path where the Image galleries are stored. Why JoomlaOWrks dos not warn in advance or say wich path this is, I do not know. I purchased this because it is supposed to be "fully integrated" with K2 but it is a lie. You need to keep tweaking things at the back end, change the root directory, and you need to dowload text files and what not to enter labels. I am very dissapointed with the product. It needs an interface to enter labels within K2 Joomla before this can be caimed to be "fully integrated" with K2. For K2 users, when you upload a zip file with images, you will have no clue where they go, so you have no way of knowing the name of the folder where your images are, hence you can't add the gallery tag to create a gallery.
Displaying 4801 - 4820 out of 6582 results.
