Thank you for the additional information and link to your gallery.

I put the html file in a iwrapper...

This is the source of the problem.

There are a few drawbacks to loading a Juicebox gallery into an iframe, one of which is that the Expand Button is disabled.
This is noted in the Using an External Gallery Folder support section (scroll down to "2) Using an iframe").

For full functionality (including the Expand Button), embed your gallery directly into your web page instead of loading it into an iframe using the baseUrl method from the link above (check out the "1) Using baseUrl" section).

As you are using Joomla, the Embedding in a Joomla Site instructions should help with the full procedure required.

OK, thanks.
If you still have problems, just post the link to your gallery and I'll take a look at it for you.

Thanks for the help you are giving.

You're welcome.

but there is something that does not work

Are you referring to the thumbnail dimensions or the Expand Button?

Thumbnail dimensions:
After clicking the 'Change Sizes...' button (shown in the screenshot attached to my last post), you should see a pop-up window (shown in the screenshot attached to this post). Change the 'Width' and 'Height' for the 'Thumbnails' and click 'Save'.
Then, when you 'Save' the gallery on the 'Publish' tab, thumbnails will be generated at the specified dimensions in the gallery's 'thumbs' folder and the thumbWidth and thumbHeight configuration options will automatically be written to the the gallery's 'config.xml' file with the correct values.
If you are experiencing difficulties with this, please let me know how far into the process you get and what seems to be the problem.

Expand Button:
As I mentioned previously, if you have a 100% x 100% gallery (which fills the browser window), then the Expand Button will be displayed on the gallery's Button Bar only if and useFullscreenExpand="TRUE" (otherwise the gallery would not be able to be expanded any larger than it already is).
You'll also need to make sure that showExpandButton="TRUE" (in JuiceboxBuilder-Pro's 'Customize -> Lite' section) and that buttonBarPosition ('Customize -> Button Bar') is set to a value other than NONE (so that the Button Bar is visible).
If you have trouble with a specific gallery, then please post the link to it so that I can see the problem for myself and hopefully help further.
Please also let me know what browser (or browsers) you see the problem in. Thank you.

This items ( thumbnail dimension) is not present, i just see thumbsPosition

thumbsPosition is in the 'Thumbnails' section of the 'Customize' tab.
You need to be on the 'Images' tab (to the left of 'Customize') and then click the 'Change Sizes...' button in the 'Image Size' control panel (on the left side of the window). See the image attached.

The full screen button does not appear after the publication, I have version 1.5.1

If your have a full page gallery (i.e. it has dimensions of 100% x 100% and there is no other content on the web page), then the Expand Button will only be visible if you set useFullscreenExpand="TRUE" in JuiceboxBuilder-Pro's 'Customize -> Lite' section (for the gallery to expand to fill the user's entire screen). If useFullscreenExpand="FALSE" (the default value), then the gallery would expand to fill only the user's browser window (not the entire screen) and, as the full page gallery already fills the browser window, it would not be able to be expanded any larger so Juicebox hides the Expand Button.

If this does not explain what you are seeing, then please post the link to your gallery's web page so that I can see the problem for myself and hopefully help further. Thank you.

As far as I am aware, there are no current plans to introduce the ability to use test for a watermark but that's exactly what this Feature Requests forum thread is for so thank you for posting your suggestion here.

I do not know what suggestions will be picked up by the developers for future versions but posting your suggestion here at least makes your voice heard.

An alternate suggestion for the way things are just now would be to process your images (resize and add a watermark) prior to feeding them to JuiceboxBuilder-Pro and de-select the 'Resize Images' checkbox on the 'Images' tab so that JuiceboxBuilder-Pro copies the images across to the gallery folder without processing them further.

It may not be ideal but, being that JuiceboxBuilder-Pro does not currently allow text to be entered for a watermark, it would be another way of achieving watermarked images in a Juicebox-Pro gallery.

You can change the thumbnail dimensions using the thumbWidth and thumbHeight configuration options.
For reference, a list of all Thumbnail Options can be found here.

When creating a gallery with JuiceboxBuilder-Pro, you can set the thumbnail dimensions on the 'Images' tab. (Just click the 'Change Sizes...' button in the 'Image Size' control panel to reveal the input boxes.)
Thumbnails will be generated at the specified dimensions and the thumbWidth and thumbHeight options will automatically be set in the gallery's 'config.xml' file accordingly.

Alternatively, just set the thumbWidth and thumbHeight options in your gallery's 'config.xml' file to whatever values you like (instructions on how to set configuration options can be found here) and, when the gallery is displayed, Juicebox-Pro will dynamically scale the thumbURL images to fill the chosen dimensions. (Please note that if your thumbURL images do not have the same aspect ratio as that set by the thumbWidth and thumbHeight options, cropping will occur.)

@cwnicholls

Many thanks for the suggestion!

Just for clarification, JuiceboxBuilder-Pro's Watermark functionality will accept JPGs, GIFs and PNGs (although it usually works best with PNGs with transparent backgrounds).

At present, if you want to add text as a Watermark, the best course of action would be to prepare a PNG containing text in an imaging program such as Adobe Photoshop.

I'm glad that clearing you browser's cache solved your problem.
Thank you for letting me know.

As you have discovered, JuiceboxBuilder-Pro can handle images of no more than 4095px x 4095px when creating a gallery. This is a limitation of Adobe AIR (the platform on which JuiceboxBuilder runs). Adobe AIR uses Adobe Flash Player as its runtime environment and the largest image size which Adobe Flash Player can handle is 16,777,215 pixels. This equates to a square image of 4095 x 4095. Alternatively, if you have an image with one side being 2500, then the other side can be no more than 6710. Please see this web page for details.

As far as I am aware, this has always been the case (from the first version of JuiceboxBulder-Pro to the current version).

If your image are within these bounds, then perhaps you could upload one somewhere (perhaps to your own web site or a file sharing site such as Dropbox) and post a link to it so that I can try to replicate the problem myself.

If your images are larger than the maximum allowed resolution, then you could perhaps do one of the following.

(1) You could resize your images first in an imaging program (such as Adobe Photoshop) before feeding them to JuiceboxBuilder. (If you do resize your images prior to using JuiceboxBuilder, be sure to deselect the 'Resize Images' checkbox on the 'Images' tab to ensure that JuiceboxBuilder does not resize your images again.)

(2) There are plugins available to create Juicebox-Pro galleries with other programs (such as Adobe Lightroom, Adobe Photoshop or jAlbum) which do not have the upper resolution limit of JuiceboxBuilder. You can find details of these plugins here.
If you have any of the programs for which plugins are available, you might like to try creating your galleries with these programs as an alternative to JuiceboxBuilder-Pro.

When I view your gallery's web page in a desktop browser, I see the thumbnail paging arrows being displayed (to the left and right of the thumbnails, centered vertically).
If you do not see this yourself, then try clearing your browser's cache before reloading the web page.
If you have made any changes to your gallery recently, your browser may still be using an older, cached version of your gallery's 'config.xml' file instead of the latest version from your web server.

@gfs

The issue reported above was addressed by the developers, confirmed as fixed (via email) by the original poster (robertcoldwell) and the bugfix was included in Juicebox v1.5.0 (which was released on 24 May 2016).

It certainly seems strange (though not impossible) that the problem would crop up again over a year later in a different version.

One thing I notice which could be causing layout problems is that there are several HTML errors on your web pages, including stray and unclosed <p> and <span> tags (and extra double-quotes alongside certain <div> attributes). Also, your gallery <div> containers are inside <p> tags. (A <p> element should not contain another block-level element such as a <div>.)

Try validating your gallery web pages with the W3C Markup Validation Service and fix the errors reported.
Once the code on your web pages validates correctly, the web pages should be rendered with greater consistency and predictability across different browsers and devices.

Unfortunately, I do not have access to an iPad Pro so cannot check your web pages in such a device myself.
If, after fixing the HTML errors on your web pages, you still see the problem, then I'll happily compile a report for the developers who will investigate further but it would help to have as much information about the problem as possible so please let me know the following (if you can).

(1) What version of iOS was the iPad Pro running?
(2) What browser or browsers (Mobile Safari, Mobile Chrome or any others) did you see the problem in?
(3) If you can gain access to the iPad Pro again, please provide a screenshot of the problem (and let me know which of your galleries it is from) so that we can see exactly what you are seeing.
(4) Also, if possible, please let me know if the problem occurs in any of our demo galleries here.

Thank you.

So there’s no way to remove that folder from my Documents folder and prevent it from reappearing?

That is correct.
If you delete the 'presets' folder from the 'Documents/JuiceboxBuilder-Pro/' location, JuiceboxBuilder-Pro will reinstate it (complete with all the default preset files) when the application is next started.
If you just delete the contents of the 'presets' folder, then JuiceboxBuilder-Pro will detect that a 'presets' folder is present and will leave it alone. (It will not populate the folder with the preset files that you have deleted.) However, you will still be left with an empty 'JuiceboxBuilder-Pro/' folder in your 'Documents' location.

Can I make a feature request for a way to change that?

Yes, certainly.
Please post suggestions for future versions 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 but this is certainly the best place for all ideas.
Thank you.

It is not possible to change where JuiceboxBuilder initially puts its own presets folder when the application is installed but you can copy the default preset files (and save your own) to anywhere you like.
You can then load a preset from the new location via 'Presets -> Load Preset...' from the drop-down menu at the top.
Likewise, you can save a custom preset to anywhere you like via 'Presets -> Save Preset...'.
The dialog window for loading and saving presets should remember the last used location each time it is opened.

Please note that the 'Load Preset' combobox (just above the 'Lite' configuration options) will always read the preset files from the original installed 'Documents' location. This cannot be changed.
If you want to store presets in a different location, then you'll need to use the 'Load Preset...' and 'Save Preset...' options from the drop-down menu at the top.

According to your gallery's 'config.xml' file, the 1st image in your gallery should be located here:
http://www.zw-g.de/slides/zeiterfassung … modell.jpg

However, going directly to that location in a browser (bypassing Juicebox) just redirects to your home page, suggesting that the image is not present on your web server (or at least in the correct location).
Please check that your gallery's 'images' and 'thumbs' folders have been uploaded to your '/slides/zeiterfassung-module/' directory.

If the images are in their correct location on your web server, then please check their permissions to ensure that they are not too restrictive. Default file permissions of 644 should be fine. You should be able to check and change permissions using either a dedicated FTP program such as Filezilla or via your web hosting account's online File Manager.

I hope this points you in the right direction.

You're welcome.
I'm glad you've been able to get it working. Thank you for letting me know.

I'm glad you've been able to resolve your problem.
Thank you for letting me know.

For anyone else encountering the "The application cannot be installed due to a certificate problem." message whilst installing JuiceboxBuilder, the solution is usually to completely uninstall the existing version of JuiceboxBuilder first before installing the new version. (For reference, this is noted in the 'Installation Issues' section of the JuiceboxBuilder User Guide.)

I'm not sure why this did not work for you when you first tried it but I'm happy to hear that all is well.

It sounds like you might be using Safari 11 as your default browser.
Unfortunately, Safari 11 (released 19 September 2017) has introduced a new security restriction which now prevents the local viewing of Juicebox galleries by default.
Please see this forum post for a full explanation and a workaround.
Selecting 'Disable Local File Restrictions' from Safari 11's 'Develop' menu (full instructions in the link above) should, once again, allow you to view your galleries locally in Safari.

thanx for answering so quickly!

You're welcome!

But isn't it a suggestion to think about for further updates? ;-)

Please feel free to post suggestions for future versions in the Feature Requests forum thread.
This keeps all the ideas together and ensures that they are not overlooked by the developers.
Thank you.

I'm going to implement a solution which you, Steven, proposed.
Therefore I'm using a PHP/Ajax livesearch variant.

I'm glad you've found a suitable workaround for your problem.
Thank you for letting me know.

Unfortunately, it is not possible to customize Juicebox error messages or to hook into the error handling to intercept the error messages and redirect the site visitor to a custom page or run your own code.

As your gallery shows your own Flickr images, you know in advance what Flickr tags are in use so perhaps the best course of action would be to validate the tags entered by the site visitor (check what the user enters against a known array of valid tags) before loading the gallery (i.e. only load the gallery if the tags entered are valid).

I hope this suggestion helps.

Unfortunately, there is no automated method for converting multiple SimpleViewer galleries to Juicebox galleries in bulk.

You can swap each gallery's 'svcore' folder for a jbcore' folder (which shouldn't take too long) and Juicebox can read a SimpleViewer gallery's 'gallery.xml' file so you wouldn't need to alter the contents of the configuration file (although you'd need to rename it to 'config.xml' or add a configUrl to the Juicebox embedding code) but actually changing the embedding code in your web pages is likely to take up most of the time in the conversion process.

Depending on how your website is structured (and whether or not you use a baseUrl for your galleries), swapping the embedding code over for all your galleries could be a relatively easy process of copying and pasting (but, admittedly, if you have many galleries, it could be quite time consuming).

Also, please bear in mind that although Juicebox can read a SimpleViewer gallery's 'gallery.xml' file, Juicebox was written from the ground up (and is not just a HTML 5 translation of SimpleViewer). As such, Juicebox has a different feature set to SimpleViewer and not all SimpleViewer configuration options have direct equivalents in Juicebox. With this in mind, you might like to use JuiceboxBuilder to convert your SimpleViewer galleries (as documented in the Converting a SimpleViewer Gallery support section) as you could tweak your galleries via the JuiceboxBuilder interface during the conversion process.

Thank you very much for all the testing that you have done (with regard to changing configuration options) and additional information that you have provided (your Safari version number and the link to your own gallery).
I will pass all this on to the developers and I'm sure it will help greatly in their investigations.
Also, I'm very happy to hear that setting imageTransitionType to FADE seems to be a suitable workaround.
Thank you, once again, for reporting the problem and for helping us troubleshoot it.

On the web page where the gallery does not appear, there is the following line of code:

<script src="/plan-a-visit/washed-ashore/globalassets/juiceboxgalleries/NewWashedAshoreTest/jbcore/juicebox.js"></script>

However, there is no 'juicebox.js' file in that location.
If you change the line above to the following, then the gallery should appear:

<script src="/globalassets/juiceboxgalleries/NewWashedAshoreTest/jbcore/juicebox.js"></script>

When a gallery is expanded on an iOS device (for example, from the Splash Page), the gallery is expanded on a new page instead of on top of the embedding page (please see the Expand Gallery Behavior support section) and Juicebox uses the 'full.html' file inside the gallery's 'jbcore' folder to display the gallery.

First of all, please check that the 'full.html' file is actually present inside your gallery's 'jbcore' folder on your web server.
If the file is there, then please check that its permissions are not too restrictive. Default file permissions of 644 should be fine. You should be able to check and change file permissions using a FTP program or via your web hosting account's online file manager.

Also, please ensure that your gallery uses the current version of Juicebox-Pro (v1.5.1) to be sure that any bugs from previous versions (but which have since been fixed) are not contributing to your problem.
If necessary, full instructions for downloading the latest version and upgrading existing galleries can be found on the Upgrading Juicebox support page.

Hopefully this will help.
However, if you continue to experience difficulties, please post the URL to your gallery's web page so that I can take a look at the problem for myself and hopefully help further.
Thank you.
