Juicebox v1.5.1 Released!

2017-07-02 09:42:39

When creating a gallery with JuiceboxBuilder-Pro, the Pro version of the 'jbcore' folder will always be used (and saved to the gallery folder). JuiceboxBuilder-Pro does not contain the Juicebox-Lite 'jbcore' folder at all (so cannot create a Lite gallery).

The only thing I can think of is that you might have tried to save a Pro gallery to a folder containing a Lite gallery and, if you had the gallery open in a browser at the time of saving the gallery on the 'Publish' tab, then the browser could perhaps have had a temporary lock on the Lite 'jbcore' files, preventing JuiceboxBuilder-Pro from overwriting them with the Pro versions.

In any case, I'm glad you've found a workaround for your problem (to save each new gallery to a separate empty folder).
Thank you for letting me know.

First of all, please double-check to see if your gallery is using Juicebox-Lite (the free version) or Juicebox-Pro.
Juicebox-Lite has an image limit of 50 images per gallery whereas Juicebox-Pro has no such limit.
If your gallery displays a Juicebox logo in the lower right corner, then it is a Juicebox-Lite gallery. (Juicebox-Pro galleries do not feature this branding.)

If your gallery is a Juicebox-Lite gallery, then instructions for upgrading existing galleries can be found on the Upgrading Juicebox support page.
Essentially, you can load and re-save your gallery in JuiceboxBuilder-Pro or replace your gallery's existing 'jbcore' folder with the 'jbcore' folder from the Juicebox-Pro v1.5.0 download zip package ('juicebox_pro_1.5.0/web/jbcore').

If your gallery is a Juicebox-Pro gallery and you use a Flickr account as an image source, you may need to increase the flickrImageCount from its default value of 50 to its maximum value of 500 on JuiceboxBuilder-Pro's 'Images' tab. (Incidentally, this maximum value is imposed by Flickr rather than Juicebox-Pro.)

Also, be sure to clear your browser's cache before reloading your gallery's page to ensure that your browser is using the latest versions of your gallery files from your web server (instead of perhaps using older cached ones).

I hope this helps.
However, if you continue to experience difficulties, please email me back with 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.

Juicebox was not designed with the ability to add unique tooltip text to individual thumbnails.
However, if you wanted to add the same tooltip text to all thumbnails, then you could use something like the following code:

<!--START JUICEBOX EMBED-->
<script src="jbcore/juicebox.js"></script>
<script>
    var jb = new juicebox({
        containerId: "juicebox-container",
        galleryWidth: "100%",
        galleryHeight: "100%",
        backgroundColor: "222222"
    });
    jb.onInitComplete = function() {
        $('.jb-idx-thumb').attr('title', 'Tooltip Text Goes Here');
    };
    jb.onThumbPageChange = function(e) {
        $('.jb-idx-thumb').attr('title', 'Tooltip Text Goes Here');
    };
</script>
<div id="juicebox-container"></div>
<!--END JUICEBOX EMBED-->

Just change the two instances of Tooltip Text Goes Here to whatever text you'd like to use.

If you need to display your gallery on demand (when a button is clicked), then I would recommend one of the following.

(1) To display the gallery on a page of its own, use a regular HTML link (an <a> tag) to open the gallery's 'index.html' page. You can incorporate a Back Button in your gallery to allow users to return to the original web page.

or...

(2) To display the gallery within your web page alongside other content, wrap the gallery's embedding code inside a JavaScript function and call the function when required.
To see this in action, create a sample gallery with JuiceboxBuilder-Pro and use the following code as the gallery's 'index.html' page.
Load the 'index.html' page in your browser and you'll see that the gallery is displayed when the 'Load Gallery' button is clicked.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
    <head>
        <meta charset="utf-8" />
        <meta name="viewport" id="jb-viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, minimum-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0, user-scalable=0" />
        <style type="text/css">
            body {
                margin: 0px;
            }
        </style>
        <title>Test</title>
    </head>
    <body>
        <div id="link">
            <input id="load" type="button" value="Load Gallery" />
        </div>
        <script type="text/javascript" src="jbcore/juicebox.js"></script>
        <script type="text/javascript">
            function loadGallery() {
                new juicebox({
                    containerId: "juicebox-container",
                    galleryHeight: "400",
                    galleryWidth: "600"
                });
            }
            $(document).ready(function() {
                $('#load').click(function() {
                    loadGallery();
                });
            });
        </script>
        <div id="juicebox-container"></div>
    </body>
</html>

As far as I am aware, 'option_id' is not something that is used by the current version of WP-Juicebox.
At the moment, I cannot remember if 'option_id' was perhaps something that was used by an older version (and is no longer required) but I've searched through the files for several previous versions and cannot find any instance of 'option_id'.
Please let me know what version of WP-Juicebox you are currently using and I'll look into it further to see if I can figure out what 'option_id' is or was.
Also, in case it helps, please let me now what your 'option_id' and 'last_id' are currently set to and how many WP-Juicebox galleries you currently have.
Thank you.

Edit:
It sounds like you've got it sorted out. Thank you for letting me know.
Also, thanks for sharing your steps which might help others who are migrating their own WordPress sites.

2017-06-21 21:05:53

Sorry, my mistake. Try searching for 'juicebox_options' with an underscore instead of a dash.
Apologies for the typo. I've corrected my post above.

2017-06-21 16:19:28

All the WP-Juicebox data files for the galleries are stored in the 'wp-content/uploads/juicebox/' directory so be sure to copy the content of this folder over to your new WordPress site.

The only other WP-Juicebox info that would need to be transferred is the last-used gallery id number.
This is stored as a WordPress Option in the 'wp_options' table named 'juicebox_options['last_id']'.

Copying all of the above (as well as the gallery shortcodes in your pages and posts) should be all that is required to reinstate your galleries in your new WordPress site.

I hope this helps.

I'm not sure what you mean.
Can you explain in a bit more detail what information you're looking for? Thanks.

Thank you for marking this thread as solved.
I hope that you've been able to resolve your problem.

2017-06-14 12:36:52

I think your problem is due to your site having 3 levels in its navigation menu (gallery index pages grouped under other gallery index pages). Showkase natively supports only 2 levels in its navigation menu and it is not possible to group a gallery index page under another gallery index page in the interface. A gallery index page can be only a top-level menu item.

Normally, when viewing a top-level page, the navigation menu displays all top-level links and also links to pages grouped under the current page. When you select a second-level page, the navigation menu remains the same.
Your problem seems to occur when you select a third-level page (a gallery grouped under a gallery index page grouped under another gallery index page). Everything in the navigation menu displays and works as expected until a third-level page is selected when the navigation menu displays only top-level links.
I'm not sure how you achieved a third level but Showkase was not designed to support or handle this. (It sounds like you would need a third row of links in the navigation menu and this is not something that Showkase has ever been able to do.)

As far as I am aware, there were no changes between v1.6.1 and v1.7.0 with regard to the navigation menu.
Perhaps you had made some manual modifications to the v1.6.1 source files (or maybe to your theme's 'custom.css' or 'custom.js' files) which were overwritten when you upgraded to v1.7.0.

If you are sure that v1.6.1 displayed the links in a way that v1.7.0 does not, then I would not ordinarily recommend using an older version of any software but maybe reverting to v1.6.1 might be the easiest remedy for your problem (as long as your site does not suffer from any of the bugs fixed in v1.7.0).

Incidentally, we have a dedicated Showkase forum here.

You're welcome.
Hopefully creating and merging SEO code for several galleries shouldn't be too big of a task.
If you still have local copies of your galleries on your computer, you can open the galleries in JuicbeoxBuilder-Pro to have the application generate the SEO code for you (one less thing for you to do manually).
Knowing the baseUrl that you will use for each gallery, you can then change the <img> tag 'src' attributes in the SEO code so that the relative paths from the embedding page to the images in their respective gallery folders are correct. (For each gallery, this can be done with just a single global search and replace action in a text editor such as Notepad++.)
Then all that is left to do is merge the SEO code for all galleries and copy and paste it inside the 'juicebox-container' <div>.

2017-06-14 10:36:42

You're welcome!
I hope you're able to move your gallery's Button Bar to where you'd like it to be. (I thing using the CSS classes I suggested with negative margins and adding '!important' is perhaps the best solution. It seems to work well in my own test gallery so I hope it works for you, too.)

2017-06-14 00:09:19

I'd really recommend that you position the Button Bar using the available Button Bar configuration options (buttonBarPosition and buttonBarHAlign).
If you try to reposition the Button Bar manually using CSS, Juicebox will not know of this modification and will expect the Button Bar to be in a different position. This might have unforeseen knock-on effects, for example if the browser window is narrowed and the Button Bar needs to wrap onto multiple lines. (This might not apply to your own gallery with only one button on the Button Bar but it could be a concern for anyone else reading this thread with a larger Button Bar.)

Having said that, you are certainly free to try repositioning the Button Bar using CSS (but please be aware that such modifications are not officially supported).
You should be able to find out which classes and/or ids you might need to apply your custom CSS rules to (and what rules are currently being applied to specific elements) using your browser's developer tools (F12).

Try something like the following:

.jb-classifier-link-wrapper.jb-classifier-detail-area.jb-classifier-layer {
    margin-top: -10px !important;
    margin-right: -24px !important;
}

For reference, the Search Engine Optimization support section can be found here.

When you create a gallery with JuiceboxBuilder-Pro, select the 'Add SEO Content' checkbox in the 'Customize -> Sharing' section and SEO code will be generated. The SEO code will be included in the gallery's 'index.html' file (which can be used to view the gallery on a page of its own) but it will also be presented in the 'Get Embed Code' window on JuiceboxBuilder-Pro's 'Publish' tab. As long as you follow the regular embedding instructions here you can just copy and paste the entire embedding code into your web page and all should be fine.

However, things are complicated slightly with your own setup. Not only do you use a baseUrl (which would mean that you would need to modify the paths to the images in the SEO code as JuiceboxBuilder-Pro has no knowledge of your custom gallery structure when generating the SEO code) but you also switch between multiple galleries on the same page. You would probably need to merge the SEO code from your multiple galleries (making sure that the paths to the images are correct for each gallery) and manually insert it into your web page (inside the 'juicebox-container' <div> within <noscript> ... </noscript> tags, which is how JuiceboxBuilder-Pro presents the SEO code).

Try creating a sample gallery with JuiceboxBuilder-Pro (with the 'Add SEO Content' checkbox selected) and check the 'Get Embed Code' window on the 'Publish' tab to see the format that JuiceboxBuilder-Pro uses for the SEO code if you plan to implement it manually for your own web page.

Placing the SEO code (<img> tags) inside <noscript> ... </noscript> tags is not hiding the images (so Google should not penalize your site for this). It is simply telling the browser that this is what should be displayed if JavaScript is disabled. Not only is this a method of adding the SEO code to your web page, it also ensures that your gallery images will still be seen even if JavaScript is disabled in the browser.

(1) Upload all your images (the gallery images and the image you'd like to use as the representing image on the gallery index page) on the gallery page's 'Upload' tab.
(2) On the 'Images' tab, select the image you'd like to use on the gallery index page (via the corresponding radio button in the 'Index' column).
(3) On the ''Customize' tab, scroll down to the 'Override Site Options' section and deselect the 'Show index image' checkbox.
(4) Now click 'Save' and 'Publish'.

2017-06-12 11:20:44

Drag and drop the gallery page name onto the gallery index page name.
For example, click and hold the text 'Land', drag it onto the text 'Galleries' (make sure the small arrow is directly to the left of the text 'Galleries', not above or below it) and release the mouse click. (Then click 'Save' and 'Publish'.)

2017-06-12 10:18:36

From your screenshot, it looks like you are referring to the Kosel theme in Showkase.

You can hide individual pages from the navigation menu by dragging and dropping the page name onto 'Hidden pages' on the 'Pages' tab (and then clicking 'Save' and 'Publish'). The page's URL will remain the same but there will no longer be an entry for it in the navigation menu.

There is no way to disable the navigation menu completely from within the Showkase interface (other than dragging and dropping all page named onto 'Hidden pages') but you could hide the navigation menu using CSS if you like.
Try adding something like the following to your '/showkase/_themes/kosel/css/custom.css' file:

#nav {
    display: none;
}

If you want to hide the navigation menu only on a certain page, then you can check the page's id (from the 'class' attribute in the page's <body> tag) and use something like the following in your '/showkase/_themes/kosel/css/custom.css' file:

.page-2 #nav {
    display: none;
}

More information about using custom CSS within Showkase can be found in the Adding Custom Styles and Fonts support section.

No problem! I'm glad my suggestion worked. Thanks for letting me know.

2017-06-08 12:11:22

I'm glad you've been able to find a suitable workaround. Thank you for letting me know.
With regard to you Button Bar issue, this looks like it might be caused by a known bug where the Button Bar does not always wrap correctly when there is insufficient space for all the buttons. The developers are aware of this issue and it should hopefully be fixed in the next version. In the meantime, it might help to change the size of the Button Bar icons via buttonBarIconSize (in JuiceboxBuilder-Pro's 'Customize -> Button Bar' section). The default value is 20 so you could try using a slightly smaller or larger value. Hopefully this will help.

2017-06-08 11:40:23

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

Paths in WordPress pages are often absolute but they are usually generated dynamically when the page is displayed.
As you are aware, any hard-coded absolute paths will certainly cause problems if a WordPress site is moved.

2017-06-08 01:07:01

I'm pretty sure this is a Cross-Origin issue. I've been able to replicate the problem myself in a test scenario but, unfortunately, I've been unable to find a good solution.

Normally, your gallery is hosted on gallery.charleychau.com but is displayed on charleychau.com.
However, when the gallery is expanded from the Splash Page, it is displayed via the 'full.html' page within the 'jbcore' folder on gallery.charleychau.com (swapping the domain on which the gallery is being displayed). To complicate matters, Juicebox passes configuration options to the 'full.html' page via a session cookie.

I've tried adding the following line to the .htaccess in my test scenario file to add cookie support to the CORS solution.

Header set Access-Control-Allow-Credentials true

... and I've tried adding the full .htaccess file:

Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Credentials true

... to both domains (in theory to allow access in both directions) but it does not work.

The only thing I've been able to think of would be to set expandInNewPage="FALSE" to prevent the gallery from being displayed via the 'full.html' page when it is expanded from the Splash Page. The gallery will then be expanded on top of the embedding page (still on the charleychau.com domain) which may cause a scaling problem on iOS devices. (Expanding the gallery on a page of its own is designed to avoid this potential scaling issue.) It's certainly worth a try, though.
Alternatively, you could keep expandInNewPage="AUTO" and lock the viewport of your gallery's web page.
Please see the Expand Gallery Behavior support section for details.

I hope this is a suitable workaround for your problem (as it seems to work well in my test scenario).
