Any chance we could see that functionality in a near-future version of juicebox?
It might be worth posting your suggestion in the Feature Requests forum thread where it will be seen by the developers.
I do not know the likelihood of any suggestions being implemented in future versions but this is certainly the best place for all ideas.
Thank you.
JuiceboxBuilder-Pro requires Adobe AIR v2.0 or later and, although Adobe have dropped AIR support for Linux, you can still download the last version for Linux (v2.6.0) from their archive page here: https://helpx.adobe.com/air/kb/archived … rsion.html
Scroll down to the Adobe AIR 2.6 runtime downloads section and click the 'Adobe AIR 2.6.0 Linux (15.4 MB)' link.
This should hopefully allow you to install and run JuiceboxBuilder-Pro on your Linux system.
Unfortunately, there are no configuration options available to change the font size of image titles and captions.
However, you can style individual image titles and captions (for example, to change the font-size) using HTML formatting as noted in this FAQ:
How do I add HTML formatting to image captions and titles?
A sample caption with a font-size of 12px (for example) would look like this:
<span style="font-size: 12px;">Image caption text goes here.</span>In the gallery's XML configuration file, the caption would look like this:
<caption><![CDATA[<span style="font-size: 12px;">Image caption text goes here.</span>]]></caption>... but the Drupal module should automatically add the <caption> and CDATA tags so you should only need to enter the <span> tag (as above).
Otherwise, you can set the size of all image titles and/or captions at once using CSS such as the following (changing the numeric values as appropriate):
/* IMAGE TITLE */
.jb-caption .jb-caption-title {
font-size: 20px !important;
}
/* IMAGE CAPTION */
.jb-caption .jb-caption-desc {
font-size: 18px !important;
}
/* IMAGE NUMBER */
.jb-cap-frame .jbac-number {
font-size: 12px !important;
}You could add this CSS to the end of your gallery's 'jbcore/classic/theme.css' file or wrap it in <style type="text/css"> ... </style> tags and add it to the end of your gallery web page's <head> section (if you have access to this within your Drupal site).
Thank you for responding Steven.
You're welcome!
The 'Disable Local File Restrictions' has fixed the problem completely
That's great! Thank you for letting me know.
Thank you for sharing your experience and for posting your solution.
Unfortunately, as you have discovered, Safari has changed since the last version of Juicebox has been released.
Safari 11 (released 19 September 2017) introduced a security restriction which prevents local viewing of Juicebox galleries by default. This issue is specific to viewing galleries locally (from your computer's hard drive) and there is no such issue once the galleries have been uploaded to a web server (where they can be viewed in any modern browser).
Selecting 'Disable Local File Restrictions' from Safari 11's 'Develop' menu should, once again, allow you to view your galleries locally in Safari 11.
Incidentally, I noted this (and posted instructions on how to 'Disable Local File Restrictions') in this forum post but the information has not found its way into the FAQ section yet. I'm sure the developers will address this issue in due course.
Thanks again for posting.
I'm glad that you have been able to resolve your problem.
Thank you for your interest in Juicebox-Pro!
Does Juicebox pro $99 license is for unlimited domains with a one time payment, is that right?
Yes. The Unlimited Site License allows you to upload an unlimited number of Juicebox-Pro galleries to an unlimited number of website domains and the cost (currently $99) is a one-off payment. (We do not have any subscription-based products.)
Also, upgrades are free within the same major version number (as noted on the Upgrading Juicebox support page) so, if you were to purchase v1.5.1 today, all 1.x.x updates will be provided free of charge.
For reference, the full terms of use for the Unlimited Site License can be found here.
Please see my reply to your query in this forum post.
OK, I can create and save a gallery in JuiceboxBuilder Pro, and then import or import those settings into the Lighrtoom plugin, however.
No. It is not possible to open an existing gallery (or import a set of configuration options from an existing gallery or a preset XML file) in the Lightroom plugin. You'll need to set the configuration options individually in the Lightroom plugin's interface unless you have already saved a combination of configuration options as a template in Lightroom, in which case you can apply the template to a gallery (to set all configuration options within the template at once).
To set a template in Lightoom:
Once you've got a gallery configured that way you'd like it to be in Lightroom (using the individual controls in the Lightroom plugin's interface), you can save the combination of configuration options as a Lightroom template by clicking the + sign to the right of the text 'Template Browser' (in the left panel of the 'Web' section) and selecting a name for the template.
At any time in the future, if you want to apply this combination of configuration options to a gallery, expand the 'Template Browser' control panel, scroll down to the 'User Templates' section and select the template.
where can I deactivate the effect in Lightroom Plugin if one with the mouse over a Thumpnail comes then the picture directly is indicated.
The changeImageOnHover configuration option can be found in the 'Appearance -> Main Image' section. (Please see the screenshot attached).
No worries!
I'm glad you're getting on well with Juicebox-Pro (and able to work around the AIR and Windows-related limitations).
Thank for you for the clarification.
I was not sure what hover effect you were referring to so I just let you know about both.
but prevent the aztomatic display of the main image at hoover's thumpnails
Just set changeImageOnHover="FALSE" (in JuiceboxBuilder-Pro's 'Customize -> Main Image' section).
It seems to me as if the Lightroom version is completely unhelpful if you want to use their demos.
The Juicebox Plugin for Lightroom does not support presets but there are individual controls in the interface for all configuration options so you can still replicate any gallery you like (with just a little more work than selecting a preset).
Can I transfer the images from Lightroom directly to JuiceboxBuilder Pro (Edit in ...) with Lightroom?
You can certainly process your images in Lightroom and then feed them to JuiceboxBuilder-Pro.
If you do not want JuiceboxBuilder-Pro to further process (resize) the images, then just deselect the 'Resize Images' checkbox on the 'Images' tab and JuiceboxBuilder-Pro will simply copy the source images across to the gallery's 'images' folder.
Can I upload the gallery created in JuiceboxBuilder Pro via ftp?
JuiceboxBuilder-Pro does not have any built-in FTP functionality but you can upload a gallery created with JuiceboxBuilder-Pro via FTP using a dedicated FTP program such as Filezilla.
@victorbruce
Thank you for sharing your experiences.
It certainly sounds like you might be encountering a different problem (regarding long path names) as well as the 'adding too many image at once' issue.
As noted in this Microsoft support page:
In the Windows API (with some exceptions discussed in the following paragraphs), the maximum length for a path is MAX_PATH, which is defined as 260 characters.
This limitation can be removed in Windows 10 (version 1607 and later) by setting a registry key. Details are in the link above. (Please do so at your own risk.) I just mention it as it may help other users reading your post and using Windows 10.
Thanks again for your notes!
I imported with the JuiceboxBuilder Pro the preset and use the xml file to import the preset then in Lightroom?
Unfortunately, you cannot use a gallery's 'config.xml' file or a preset XML file in Lightroom.
You'll need to take a look at the configuration options (from a gallery's 'config.xml' file or a preset XML file) and then set these options individually and manually in the Lightroom interface. You can then save this combination of options in Lightroom as a template (which you can apply to future galleries).
where can I download the JuiceboxBuilder Pro?
The installation file for JuiceboxBuilder-Pro ('JuiceboxBuilder-Pro.air') is inside the Juicebox-Pro zip file ('juicebox_pro_1.5.1.zip').
Instructions for installing JuiceboxBuilder-Pro can be found here.
I want to use the dan created preset but only in Lightroom.
I'm not sure what you mean by "the dan created preset". Please let me know which demo gallery or preset you are referring to and I will point you in the direction of the gallery's configuration options so that you can set them in your Lightroom gallery.
Thank you.
When thumbsPosition="TOP" or thumbsPosition="BOTTOM", the maxThumbColumns value is used as a maximum value. (The number of thumbnail columns will never exceed the maxThumbColumns value.)
The actual number of thumbnail columns will depend on the thumbWidth and the available space in the user's browser window.
(When thumbsPosition="LEFT" or thumbsPosition="RIGHT", the maxThumbColumns value is used as an absolute value. (The number of thumbnail columns will always be the maxThumbColumns value.)
If you'd like to disable the frame width change when hovering over the thumbnails, then set thumbFrameWidth and thumbHoverFrameWidth (both in JuiceboxBuilder-Pro's 'Customize -> Thumbnail' section) to the same value.
If you have not changed thumbFrameWidth from its default value of "0", then set thumbHoverFrameWidth to "0" also.
If you'd like to prevent the main image from changing when hovering over the thumbnails, then set changeImageOnHover="FALSE" (in JuiceboxBuilder-Pro's 'Customize -> Main Image' section).
The demos are not available to download (as a zip file, for example) but you can certainly check out the configuration options used in a particular gallery by viewing its 'config.xml' file directly in your browser. (You can check the path of the configuration file in the gallery's embedding code. If the gallery's embedding code does not set a configUrl, the the 'config.xml' file will be in the same directory as the HTML page displaying the gallery.)
Most of the demo galleries are available as presets in JuiceboxBuilder-Pro (the standlone desktop application to create and edit galleries which comes with Juicebox-Pro).
You can select a preset via the 'Load Preset...' drop-down menu on the 'Customize' tab.
If you want to inspect the preset files, you can find them in the 'Documents/JuiceboxBuilder-Pro/presets' folder (and you can open the XML files in a plain text editor to see the configuration options used).
Unfortunately, the Juicebox Plugin for Lightroom does not support presets in the same way that JuiceboxBuilder-Pro does.
To replicate a demo gallery, you'll first need to set the individual configuration options used in the gallery via the plugin's interface.
However, once you've got a gallery configured that way you'd like it to be, you can save the settings as a Lightroom template by clicking the + sign to the right of the text 'Template Browser' (in the left panel of the 'Web' section) and select a name for your template.
At any time in the future, if you want to apply these settings to a gallery, expand the 'Template Browser' control panel, scroll down to the 'User Templates' section and select your template.
I hope this helps.
Unfortunately, the multiple gallery template is not available for download but you can view the source of the web page in your browser (depending on your browser, you can do so via 'Tools -> Web Developer -> Page Source' or something similar) and copy/modify the code to suit your own needs. (Some knowledge of HTML would be useful.)
If you are looking for an automated solution to creating and listing multiple galleries, then you might be interested in another one of our products, namely Showkase.
Showkase is a PHP web application (installed on your web server instead of your computer) which allows you to create a complete portfolio web site (integrating multiple galleries) online.
Showkase has full support for Juicebox-Pro and the galleries can be created within the application itself in a web browser interface (or created with JuiceboxBuilder or the Juicebox plugin for Lightroom and imported).
You can create Gallery Index pages and have as many galleries listed on each Gallery Index page as you wish.
Each gallery is represented by a thumbnail image with the gallery title displayed below and the gallery is opened when the user clicks on the image.
Demo sites created with Showkase can be found here and a sample Gallery Index page can be found here.
Showkase can also create non-gallery pages (About, Basic and Contact pages) where you can add information about yourself (or any other content you like).
All of this is done automatically within the Showkase interface without the need for any manual coding at all.
Showkase can be purchased as Showkase-Standard (which comes with Juicebox-Lite, the free version) or Showkase-Pro (which comes with Juicebox-Pro).
The only difference between Showkase-Standard and Showkase-Pro is the bundled viewer (Juicebox-Lite vs Juicebox-Pro).
If you already have Juicebox-Pro, then you could purchase Showkase-Standard (if you wanted to) and integrate your Juicebox-Pro files by following the Installing a Pro Viewer instructions.
Unfortunately, this may not be possible.
After activating the JPEGmini plugin, are all images exported by Lightroom (whether from the Library module or the Web module, where the Juicebox Plugin for Lightroom is) processed by the JPEGmini plugin?
Have you tried exporting a Juicebox gallery with the JPEGmini plugin both enables and disabled to see if there is any difference in the resulting image size? (I do not have JPEGmini so cannot run such a test myself.)
If not, then it sounds like JPEGmini might need to provide an API to allow developers of other Lightroom extensions to utilise their plugin's functionality (and, from taking a look at their website, there does not seem to be one).
Even if it was possible to hook into the JPEGmini functionality, the Juicebox Plugin for Lightroom would need to be rewritten to incorporate such functionality (the user interface and underlying functionality of the Juicebox Plugin for Lightroom is not something that can be modified by users as the web engine is compiled and cannot be edited) and I think it is unlikely that the developers would be willing to rewrite the Juicebox Plugin for Lightroom to support a non-free third-party plugin.
If the images exported for a Juicebox gallery are not automatically processed by JPEGmini when the JPEGmini plugin is active (i.e. if Lightroom's exporting functionality is not automatically intercepted and overridden by JPEGmini in all scenarios), then it sounds like your current workaround is, indeed, the best course of action.
I realise that this is not a solution to your problem but I hope that it at least helps to clarify things.
In Small Screen Mode, the thumbnails on the thumbnail page are always centered. Unfortunately, there are no configuration options to vertically align the thumbnails to the top of the gallery in Small Screen Mode. (thumbsVAlign is a Large Screen Mode option only.)
The best I can suggest is that you post your suggestion in the Feature Requests forum thread.
This keeps all the ideas together and ensures that they are not overlooked by the developers.
I do not know the likelihood of any suggestions being implemented in future versions but this is certainly the best place for all ideas.
Thank you.
I'm glad it worked for you. Thank you for letting me know.
If you are trying to add many images to JuiceboxBuilder-Pro at once, then Adobe AIR (the platform on which JuiceboxBuilder-Pro runs) may not be able to allocate enough memory for the task at hand.
Even if your computer has plenty of free RAM, Adobe AIR applications are limited to around 1GB of memory allocation.
The workaround is to add your images in smaller batches (so try adding, say, 50 images at a time).
I hope this helps.
You're welcome!
I'm glad you've got it sorted out. Thank you for letting me know.
If you are creating or editing your gallery with JuiceboxBuilder-Pro, then you can remove the image filenames from the image titles by going to 'Images -> Titles -> Use None' from the drop-down menu at the top.
If you want to enter custom text for the image titles (or captions), then go to the 'Images' tab and click a thumbnail to reveal the input fields at the foot of the window.
If you want to hide the entire caption area (including the image titles, the image captions and the image numbers), then set captionPosition="NONE" in JuiceboxBuilder-Pro's 'Customize -> Caption' section.
Just to clarify (for others reading this thread), the image currently being viewed in the gallery is the image being shared when the Facebook share icon is clicked.
The shared link has a # at the end of the URL to signify which image in the gallery is being shared and, when the shared link is clicked, the gallery will display the shared image (rather than just the first image in the gallery).
However, the thumbnail image displayed in the Facebook pop-up share window will be taken from the web page's og:image tag and, therefore, is not a thumbnail of the image being shared (it is just a single representative image for the gallery as a whole).
The only user I know of who seems to have managed to overcome this restriction is sly from this thread.
I notice that his solution seems to be included within a rather complex custom JavaScript file (check out the 'jcaddon.js' file on his gallery pages) which overrides some of Juicebox-Pro's own sharing functionality and, therefore, is not officially supported.
(As such, I have not tested his solution myself and I cannot be sure that it will work across all platforms and in all browsers.)
However, I hope this points you in the right direction.
I have viewed a few of your guitar galleries on my own iOS device (Mobile Safari, iOS 11.3.1) and all the ones I've viewed display and function OK (without any error messages).
If the problem happened "out of nowhere" (were the galleries were previously working OK but suddenly stopped working without you having changed anything yourself), then it sounds like something may have happened on your web server to cause the problem.
As everything seems to be OK at the moment (at least for myself), then it sounds like the problem may have been a temporary glitch on your server which has now been resolved.
If you are still seeing the "Config file not found." message, then try clearing your browser's cache before reloading your web pages to see if this helps.
Also, please note that the Juicebox module for Drupal is an unofficial plugin which we did not write ourselves and it is the module's own custom code which generates the config files and the structure of the galleries. As such, if you continue to experience difficulties, it might be worth posting in the Drupal forum where the author of the module should hopefully be able to help you out further.
I hope this helps (or at least points you in the right direction).
Please let me know how you get on. (Hopefully the problem was just a temporary server glitch which has now been resolved.)
