Your gallery looks very similar to me in Firefox, Edge and Chrome (with just minor differences due to different browser toolbars). (I have tested both the Expand Gallery button and the Hide Thumbnails button. I don't see any major differences between browsers on my Windows 11 PC.)

If you are seeing significant differences between browsers, then try clearing your browser caches before reloading your gallery's web page in case you have made any changes and your browsers are caching older versions of your gallery.

If clearing your browser caches does not help, then please provide screenshots of the problem so that I can at least see the differences in browsers that you are seeing. I'm not sure if I'll be able to help (or explain why you see what you are seeing) but being able to see screenshots of what you are seeing might help to troubleshoot your problem.
Thank you.

Unfortunately when "Open Gallery" is clicked it opens the gallery folder but only shows; 'images', 'jbcore' and 'thumbs'. No gallery name or sub-folder is in view.

That's normal. Once you have selected the gallery folder (and the subfolders are in view), just click the 'Select Folder' button to open the gallery.

The 'Select Gallery Folder...' selection window is a directory chooser (not a file chooser) so you'll not see any files (or a gallery name).

Just highlight the gallery folder name (the folder containing the gallery's 'config.xml' file) and click 'Select Folder' (or double-click the gallery folder name and click 'Select Folder) and the gallery will open.

WP-Juicebox comes bundled with Juicebox-Lite.
You'll need to upgrade the plugin to Pro following the instructions here: https://www.juicebox.net/support/wp-juicebox/#pro

Please note that upgrading to Pro will mean that your galleries are Pro (not branding and no image limit) but the plugin's interface will still only have Lite options. You'll need to enter Pro options as noted in the link above.

After editing a gallery, you usually just need to re-upload your gallery's 'config.xml' file (and any new images in the 'images' and 'thumbs' folders). You might need to clear your browser's cache to see the changes afterwards.

If this does not help, then please try to explain your problem in greater detail and I'll do my best to help you out.

@willS

Started this morning

Was it working OK prior to this morning? If so, can you think of anything that changed on your system between it last working and just now (any AIR or operating system or anti-virus program updates)?

First of all, please ensure that you are using AIR v33.1.1.744 (links in the post above).
If you are using v50.2.1.1 (or any version after v33.1.1.744), then please uninstall your current version first before installing v33.1.1.744.

Also, try temporarily disabling any third party anti-virus or security software that you might have installed in case this is somehow interfering with JuiceboxBuilder's functionality.
(Please do so at your own risk and be sure to disconnect from the internet first.)

And when i try to make a second gallery the program writes over the first gallery

Until you get things working again, it would be wise to save each new gallery to a separate folder (with a unique name). Create a new empty folder for a gallery first (before opening JuiceboxBuilder-Pro) and then point towards it on the 'Publish' tab (assuming you can get that far into the process).

It sounds like you are having this problem: https://juicebox.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=5318

Please check out the forum post above and make sure that you are using AIR v33.1.1.744 (and not AIR v50.2.1.1).

I hope this resolves your problem.

Unfortunately, there's no screenshot attached to your post. Try attaching the screenshot to a new post or, better yet, upload the gallery and provide a download link so that I can see the problem live on your web server (or maybe copy and paste your gallery's configuration options from the 'config.xml' file so that I can create a test gallery using your settings and hopefully replicate the problem).
Once I'm able to see or reproduce the problem myself, I should hopefully be in a better position to help.
Thank you.

And the answer is ... #4: don't launch the .air from a network drive.

I'm gad you found the reason for the error you were receiving. Thank you for letting me know.

any user-visible changes from 1.5.1?

I'm not sure why v1.5.1.1 and v1.5.1.2 did not get their own entries on the Version History page (but the changes were minor).

v1.5.1.1 - Updated the juicebox.php file which handles the direct download functionality (showDownloadButton="TRUE")

v1.5.1.2 - Updated the readme.html file

Can you check your server error logs (or check in with your web host) to try to find out more about the error 500?

Also, it might help if I could see the site in question so please post the URL to your site (or email it to me at steven@juicebox.net). Thank you.

In the meantime, as you are experiencing two different errors (the admin error and the image upload error), it might help to refresh your Showkase site.
Try reinstalling Showkase. Essentially follow the upgrade instructions (https://www.showkase.net/support/upgrade/) but with the same version of Showkase that your site currently uses. If any source files have somehow become corrupt or missing, then this process will reinstate them with fresh copies.
This should not cause any further issues (and hopefully it's sort things out) but I'd recommend taking a full backup of your site as it is just now (just as a precaution) in case anything untoward happens and you need to reinstate any files manually afterwards.

Actually, what version of Showkase are you using?
If you are not already using the latest version of Showkase (v1.7.6), I'd recommend upgrading. Versions prior to v1.7.6 are not compatible with PHP 8. (See the Version History for details).

I doubt it's corrupted,

Indeed. If you were able to extract the Juicebox-Pro zip file without any errors then it's unlikely that your JuiceboxBuilder-Pro.air file is corrupt.
Your SHA256 checksum is correct for JuiceboxBuilder-Pro v1.5.1. However, there is a slightly more recent version (technically v1.5.1.2 but still labelled as v1.5.1 within JuiceboxBuilder-Pro) which you might like to try.

You can download it using your original download link. Upgrades are free within the same major version number you purchased and download links always point towards the latest version rather than the version you purchased. If you can't find your download link or it has expired, then please fill in the Download Link Request Form and we'll send you a new one.

You'll find checksums for the v1.5.1.2 zip and AIR files here.

If this does not help, then there are some hints and tips in the 'Troubleshooting JuiceboxBuilder installation and usage problems' forum post here.

The suggestions in the post which I think may be most relevant to your problem are #4 (regarding the location of the JuiceboxBuilder installation file), #9 (regarding anti-virus programs) and #10 (regarding the system clock).

#4 Make sure that you have actually extracted the 'juicebox_pro_1.5.1.zip' file to your hard drive (rather than just looking inside the file with a zip program or with Windows File Explorer) and that you are not running the 'JuiceboxBuilder-Pro.air' file from a restricted file system or network drive.

#9 Try completely disabling any third-party security software that you might have installed (e.g. Avast or AVG), including real-time protection and ransomware detection, before attempting to install JuiceboxBuilder-Pro in case this may somehow be interfering with the JuiceboxBuilder-Pro installation. (Please do so at your own risk and be sure to disconnect from the internet first.)

#10 Check that your system clock is accurate (and resync with a known time server if necessary) before attempting to install JuiceboxBuilder-Pro. (One user actually claims to have had to wind back his system clock 2 years in order to install JuiceboxBuilder-Pro. This seems to have been an isolated incident and no-one is quite sure why this was necessary but it might be something worth trying if nothing else works.)

Can I expect this to work fully?

It's certainly not something I'd recommend but I think it should be OK.
As far as I am aware, the JuiceboxBuilder-Pro installer does not add any entries to the Windows registry so as long as all the files are in place, things should work OK.
Please note that this is not an official 'yes' and it is untested but I don't foresee any problems with it (other than the lack of an automated shortcut and uninstall entry).

Hopefully my notes above will help you to install JuiceboxBuilder-Pro using the regular AIR installer file.
Please let me know how you get on and if I can be of any further assistance.
Thank you.

Nice!
I'm glad that you've got things working. Thank you for posting back to let me know. It's most appreciated.

Thanks for trying. I'm sorry it didn't work.

The good news is that Juicebox galleries do work with "Enable HTTPS-Only Mode in all windows" in Firefox on https:// sites.
Check out our demo galleries here: https://juicebox.net/demos/
Every gallery displays and functions OK.

The problem seems to lie somewhere within your own website.
Unfortunately, we're in uncharted territory here as no-one has reported this before (as far as I can recall) and I don't know what's causing it so were going to have to do some trial and error to try to track the problem down.

First of all, try completely removing the Juicebox embedding code from your web page and see if the rest of your web page displays OK.

One thing I notice is that at the foot of your gallery page, you have some Statcounter code which includes a couple of http:// links (not https://) in two separate <noscript> sections.
Try changing them to https://. Maybe this is breaking the page in HTTPS-Only Mode.
In your Auto Body Repair page (for example), I see that the Statcounter links are https:// (and not http:// like in your gallery page).

I'll keep my fingers crossed that this helps.

Thank you for posting your troubleshooting results.
I see the problem when I "Enable HTTPS-Only Mode in all windows" in Firefox.

Here are a couple of suggestions which might hopefully help.

Try changing your embedding code to:

<script src="//www.superiorfleetbodyrepair.com/photogallery/jbcore/juicebox.js"></script>
<script>
    new juicebox({
        baseUrl: '//www.superiorfleetbodyrepair.com/photogallery/',
        containerId: "juicebox-container",
        galleryWidth: "100%",
        galleryHeight: "1000",
        backgroundColor: "rgba(255,255,255,1)"
    });
</script>
<div id="juicebox-container"></div>

The leading double slash in the paths will inherit the protocol from the page's URL.

Failing that, try hard-coding https:// into the paths:

<script src="https://www.superiorfleetbodyrepair.com/photogallery/jbcore/juicebox.js"></script>
<script>
    new juicebox({
        baseUrl: 'https://www.superiorfleetbodyrepair.com/photogallery/',
        containerId: "juicebox-container",
        galleryWidth: "100%",
        galleryHeight: "1000",
        backgroundColor: "rgba(255,255,255,1)"
    });
</script>
<div id="juicebox-container"></div>

I hope that helps.

Your gallery displays OK in my own Firefox browser (Firefox 119.0.1 Windows 64-bit) and I see no problem with the embedding code.

Try completely clearing your browser's cache and reloading the web page to see if this makes a difference.

Please let me know how you get on. Thank you.

Unfortunately, an error 500 is a rather generic server error which doesn't really help to pinpoint the cause of the problem.

I think the best course of action at the moment would be to install and run the Showkase Server Compatibility Test.

Even if you ran the test prior to initially installing Showkase, please run it again just now in case your web host has made any changes to your hosting account recently which might somehow be contributing to the problem.
If any of the tests fail, there are troubleshooting tips on the test's support page (link above).

Please let me know how you get on.

If the error message is correct, then you might need to increase your PHP memory_limit.

Please check to see what the PHP memory_limit on your web server is currently set to and try increasing it. (Your web host should be able to help you out with this.)
You can check your PHP settings using phpinfo() documented here: https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.phpinfo.php

The default value for memory_limit in the current version of PHP is 128M (as noted here: https://www.php.net/manual/en/ini.core. … ce-limits) so if yours is lower than this, I would recommend increasing it to 128M to see if this helps.

Also, please check post_max_size and upload_max_filesize and try increasing their values, too.

The following quote is from the description of post_max_size in the PHP documentation here: https://www.php.net/manual/en/ini.core. … t-max-size

post_max_size int
    Sets max size of post data allowed. This setting also affects file upload. To upload large files, this value must be larger than upload_max_filesize
.

Please check with your web host to find out how to change PHP settings on your web server.
You might be able to do this with a php.ini file or via your web hosting account's online control panel.

I hope this points you in the right direction.
However, if you continue to experience difficulties, please post back to let me know your Showkase version number and your PHP version number.
Also, if possible, please provide the source image that is causing the problem so that I can try to replicate the problem myself (in case the image is somehow corrupt). If you don't want to upload the image publicly, you can contact me at steven@juicebox.net.
Thank you.

I've just checked my email and see that you've already filled in the Download Link Request Form.
Thanks!

Hi.

I've reactivated your download link (and sent you a separate email containing the link).

You can find instructions for installing the Juicebox Plugin for Photoshop here: https://www.juicebox.net/support/photoshop/

If you encounter any problems installing via Adobe Exchange, then just use the manual method of installation noted under the heading "Photoshop CS2 to CS6".

The plugin files are the same for the CS2/CS6 version as for the CC version, it's just the method of installation that differs.

Incidentally, if you ever need a new download link in the future, just fill in the online Download Link Request Form (https://www.juicebox.net/admin/download_request/) and we'll send you a new one.

I hope this helps.

Here's (probably) the easiest way to do it:

(1) Copy your gallery folder.
(2) Open one of the gallery folders in JuiceboxBuilder-Pro (see here for details).
(3) On the 'Images' panel, delete the images that you don't want in your first gallery. You can select an image with a single left-click and you can also Ctrl+Click a selection of images or Shift-Click a block of images. You can then delete the images(s) via Crtl+D or 'Images -> Delete' from the drop-down menu at the top.
(4) Re-save the gallery on the 'Publish' panel.

Now repeat the process with the other gallery folder and delete the images you don't want in your second gallery.

(Incidentally, you can do this manually by editing the gallery's 'config.xml' file in a plain text editor and manually removing <image> tags (and then deleting the corresponding images and thumbnails from the 'images' and 'thumbs' folders) but using JuiceboxBiulder-Pro to automate the process is easier.)

You might want to keep a copy of your complete original gallery as if you delete an image, you'll lose the image's caption and if you decide to re-add the image to the gallery at a later date, you'll need to manually re-add it's caption, too.

Also, I don't know if you already do this but you might like to embed your captions within your images as IPTC metadata.
That way, the caption text will become part of the image file itself and wherever the image goes, the caption goes too.
JuiceboxBuilder-Pro has the ability to extract the IPTC Document Title as the image title and the IPTC Description as the image caption (so image titles and captions can quickly be set without any manual entry) via the 'Images -> Titles -> Use IPTC Title' and 'Images -> Captions -> Use IPTC Caption' options from the drop-down menu at the top.
You can add IPTC data to images (multiple images at once) in imaging programs such as Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop.
Please note that when instructing JuiceboxBuilder-Pro to extract IPTC metadata, all image captions are processed at once (it is not possible to extract IPTC metadata on an image-by-image-basis).

I hope this helps.
