multiple SIG galleries in one page: two bugs found

Hello eveyone:

Found two bugs when multiple SIG galleries are shown in one page (for instance: a blog section menu item shows two articles, each one with it's own gallery).

1st bug: you cannot set individual parameters for each one of the galleries. SIG pro will only take notice of the first set of parameters; the second gallery will be shown using the first gallery's parameters (this completly destroys the purpose of having individual parameters).

2nd bug (at least using slimbox): the "showing image x of y" caption will add the number of pictures from the multiple galleries in that page, and navigation is possible between the two or more galleries. That is to say that SIG Pro will think of multiple galleries as only on when on slideshow mode.

I hope this can be fixed in a future release.

About future releases: I translated the text strings and pics to portuguese. Glad to share it. Where should I put/send the files?

Well, if you check out both our 2 demo sites, you'll see that the galleries work fine with different parameters set. I hope you're not trying to pass different params to the same image folder, right? It would obviously not work.

Do you have some URL to post?

The portoguese translation can be sent to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. - thanks  ;)

I have this problem as well. It will pull images from other folders that are just posted on that page, and add them to the gallery ONLY when the photos are enlarged and you can click through each of them.

Hello Fotis:

The URL for the website where the bugs reported were found is www.utopiateatro.com.  It's right there on the frontpage, as Deemak said: when photos are enlarged, SIG Pro will let you go through multiple galleries.

No, I'm not trying to pass different params to the same image folder. But you'll not see the params bug I reported, because... well, it's my website's frontpage!, so I reverted the params to default. But I'm happy to arrange a specific time with you if you care to see the bug "live".

Additionally, I've found something else. It's not really a bug (or is it?), but it can be annoying: sometimes, when you open a page with a SIG gallery, the thumbnails are rendered one per line, not filling the entire space available. Then if you reload the page... all fits perfectly.

About the portuguese translation: I'll make some notes for you, stating what is that I've done, and then I'll e-mail it to you.

Regarding the translation, please send me just these phrases:

Next =
Prev.(previous) =
Showing image =
of =
Close =

Regarding your issue, it seems that the gallery "id" is not being written properly. So it's a php issue. What's the state of register_globals and the file globals.php in your site?

Hello:

In globals.php, register_globals is off and Joomla! Register Globals Emulation is on.

Regarding the translation:

Next = Próx (short for Próximo)
Prev = Ant (short for Anterior)
[please note that the keyboard shortcut is the opposite regarding the english language, I changed slimbox.js, lines 102-103 ro accomplish that]
Showing image = A exibir imagem
of = de
Close = Fechar (ou just "Fecha" to keep it whitin the pic's size)

Can you please set Emulation to off (0) ??

BTW, does spanish and portuguese have the same translation?? I've prepared the spanish pack to launch tomorrow with v1.2 and the words are identical!!

Well, Portuguese and Spanish have very similar words, so this may be the case. (But I don't speak Spanish, so I cannot tell for sure.)

Anyway, if you're going for joomlafish support, you better add Portuguese anyway, even if it sounds and spells the same way in this particular case.

By the way, it would be great if the text strings in the mambot admin screen would reside in some language.php file, that would enchance joomlafish support.


I'll try emulation OFF (and hope nothing goes beserk in the rest of the site) and I'll post the results.

Emulation is OFF and SIG Pro is still adding up images from two distinct galleries when in slideshow view.
Take a look at www.utopiateatro.com again, homepage. First gallery has 6 pics, second 8 pics, when you enlarge it you get "X of 14".

Is there any other element, config, param, whatever which you think could be responsable?

Oh, now I get it... This is a normal restriction. Here's why.

You've inserted SIG galleries in the introtext of your articles. So when you view these articles in the frontpage together, they will not have a different "id". This is because the 2 galleries cannot "see" each other to differentiate. This would happen if you used SIG free as well.

Have you understood what the problem is now? It's a natural restriction.

Perhaps will consider the option to be able to add such an ID manually to avoid such issues...

Ohhhh.  :(

Yes, I added the gallery to the "Main Text" area and it would not pull the other pics. However, I do need these images to show up on that intro area and not have to "click more" to view them.

I hope a future update will correct this.

Thanks.

You could try using only one gallery for now until we can find some sort of solution.

Please do not misinterpret things. Using SIG Pro you can add as many galleries as you want in your content. See the demo site!

People here were referring to a joomla limitation, the fact that if you add SIG Pro on the introtext area of your content items and then display your articles all together in blog category view, you will inevitably get all SIG Pro galleries linked together! But this is a joomla system limitation...  ;)

We are using version 2.0.4. Is there a fix for this issue yet?  We want to display images from only one folder at a time (not a combination of all folders) in the expanded view.

I'll also have the problem, that different galleries on one page are linked together. Is there a solution?

I think there are just a few things to change so it works that it doesn't shows the pictures from an another gallery on the same page.
