I had that xml config issue that I've seen before ...

So, looked at previous info and posts... and got that part to go away, (see my code)... but now there is no large image displaying... but a HUGE black box with thumbs visible underneath.


<!--START JUICEBOX EMBED-->
<script src="/scan/gallery/jbcore/juicebox.js"></script>
<script>
new juicebox({
containerId : "juicebox-container",
baseUrl : '/scan/gallery/',
galleryWidth: "100%",
galleryHeight: "100%",
backgroundColor: "#222222"
});
</script>
<div id="juicebox-container"></div>
<!--END JUICEBOX EMBED-->

Here is the link... (yes, it is in a separate folder -- so it is INSIDE scan folder (subdomain), with code residing on that index.html page  -  so maybe that is causing some kind of issue?

http://sme-planner.com/scan

My steps:
I placed a folder called gallery inside the scan folder.
I published the gallery to this folder.
I reworked the code snippet based on what I read, so maybe it's something simple to fix.  (See above)

Hope you can help... need this to be live asap.

IMAGE SIZE QUESTION:
Also... note my image sizes are "max of 1024 x 427", AND  the originals ARE that size... so, they were all very horizontal... again, not sure if that makes a diff either.

Caption question... I forgot that I cannot do captions for the LITE version... is it too late to change the file names on the images themselves, to reflect better captions... OR, can I HIDE the file names altogether?

thanks again...

Thanks Steven...

Given that I am developing the new WP site on a dev site url (different than the actual domain)... should I wait til the site has been migrated back over to the domain and then follow those instructions above? 

Of course, I will have to back up and save the current static site before the migration in order to actually retain the folder.
And if that is the case, is there more than one folder I will need?

The domain is going to be the same... so, is it easier or safer to wait until that is complete... rather than have the client be able to review ahead of time on the dev site, or will the updating of the links to the domain when we migrate a site work for the gallery also?

Thanks for your prompt reply.

Is there an easy way, to avoid recreating or uploading the images to the WP Media Library, to simply MOVE the current gallery that is on the static site over to the new WP site? 

I see that the plug in is supposed to created a Juicebox folder, so wondering if I can copy my current folder over from the static site into the new Juicebox folder, and then paste same code into the page, via the Editor?

This gallery is likely to be updated later, and at that time I want to look more in depth at your pro level product.

We have at least 8 custom tours, and each of those pages have slideshow created from the gallery that also resides there, and currently it is a two plugin process.  I have a feeling I can make this simpler in the future, but no time right now.

Mainly, for now, I would like to move the current general Juicebox gallery from the static site to the WP site.
Can you give me a solution for this?

Thanks so much!!!

Christine

Thanks... I changed it and it now looks like this:

<!--START JUICEBOX EMBED-->
<script src="http://www.fastlanetravel.com/flt-gallery/jbcore/juicebox.js"></script>
<script>
new juicebox({
containerId : "juicebox-container",
baseUrl : '/flt-gallery/',
galleryWidth: "100%",
galleryHeight: "100%",
backgroundColor: "#222222"
});
</script>
<div id="juicebox-container"></div>
<!--END JUICEBOX EMBED-->

In looking at it more closely, however, do I need to do anything to the <script src="...."   which is pointing at http://www?

thanks for your prompt reply.  :)
Christine

It was working, although hit or miss... mostly was... now mostly isn't. 

Getting this error:
Juicebox Error: Config XML file not found

Site is:  http://fastlanetravel.com/flt-gallery.php

I filed a support ticket and forgot to include the url... :(

Hope it's an easy fix!

Thanks!
Christine

EDIT:
OK... FIGURED IT OUT... RENAMED THE XML TO THE NAME OF THE GALLERY... WORKING NOW





When I replaced my code to follow your recommendations above, it worked fine (for the decks example)...

So, I went ahead and created a html page for the "bath-gallery" as I did for decks before... this time named "xtreme-baths.htm"...

... and the gallery folder I created and uploaded is named "bath-gallery". 

Here is the code...

<!--START JUICEBOX EMBED-->
<script src="bath-gallery/jbcore/juicebox.js"></script>
<script>
new juicebox({
configUrl: "bath-gallery.xml",
containerId : "juicebox-container",
baseUrl : 'bath-gallery/',
galleryWidth: "100%",
galleryHeight: "100%",
backgroundColor: "#222222"
});
</script>
<div id="juicebox-container"></div>
<!--END JUICEBOX EMBED-->

...but I'm getting the xml error again. Confused, as I believe it mimics the decks gallery.

FYI, inside of the folder the default xml is titled "config.xml"  (for both bath and decks)...  yet your code inserts the gallery name... which is what I did for baths...  and don't understand why the new gallery is not displaying...  :(

Am I missing something?

THANK YOU SO MUCH!  It worked, and I'm one happy camper!
I didn't notice or quite understand the path... but I'm not a developer, and totally missed it.

One other thing I did and wondering if it's necessary (or not)... since this site is old...is that I changed the top DOC from this:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">

to this:

<!DOCTYPE html>  <html lang="en"> 

I have 3 more gallery pages to do, so wondering if I should do it to those also...(not sure if it makes a diff. or not)... ?

THANKS AGAIN...  for some reason didn't get email notification of your reply, so glad that I came looking.  :)

OK... have read thru a number of posts and tried a number of things. What I don't get is why the code that the desktop gallery creates doesn't seem to work and we have to find the code elsewhere here... ?

Anyway... Here's my current "path"... and the (3) sets of code I've tried, based on things I've read here.

  • Current html page I'm pasting the code into:  http://xtreme-remodeling.com/dream-decks.htm
    (it is not avail via navigation yet)
    Folder name is:  dream-deck-gallery
    Inside that folder are all the files that Juice Box generated...
    I dragged the entire folder into the main public html folder.

Then, I tried these (3) variations of the code.

THIS IS THE ORIGINAL CODE... GOT NO RESULT AT ALL:

<!--START JUICEBOX EMBED-->
<script src="jbcore/juicebox.js"></script>
<script>
new juicebox({
containerId : "juicebox-container",
galleryWidth: "100%",
galleryHeight: "100%",
backgroundColor: "#222222"
});
</script>
<div id="juicebox-container"></div>
<!--END JUICEBOX EMBED-->

THIS IS THE NEXT CODE I TRIED, BASED ON THINGS READ HERE...
AND GOT SOMETHING, BUT WITH THE XML ERROR:

<!--START JUICEBOX EMBED-->
<script src="http://www.xtreme-remodeling.com/dream-deck-gallery/jbcore/juicebox.js"></script>
<script>
new juicebox({
containerId : "juicebox-container",
baseUrl : 'http://www.xtreme-remodeling.com/dream-deck-gallery/',
galleryWidth: "100%",
galleryHeight: "100%",
backgroundColor: "#222222"
});
</script>
<div id="juicebox-container"></div>
<!--END JUICEBOX EMBED-->

FINALLY... I READ ANOTHER POST TALKING ABOUT THE config / XML FILE BEING RENAMED... And discovered, MY CODE HAD NEVER EVEN "CALLED" THAT FILE... SO I ADDED THE configURL to this code, PLUS renamed my file to mygallery.xml... Not clear if it should have been named the actual gallery name? - so I also tried it with the actual gallery name included in the code and the name of the xml.  SAME RESULT.  :( 

<!--START JUICEBOX EMBED-->
<script src="http://www.xtreme-remodeling.com/dream-deck-gallery/jbcore/juicebox.js"></script>
<script>
new juicebox({
configUrl: "mygallery.xml",
containerId : "juicebox-container",
baseUrl : 'http://www.xtreme-remodeling.com/dream-deck-gallery/',
galleryWidth: "100%",
galleryHeight: "100%",
backgroundColor: "#222222"
});
</script>
<div id="juicebox-container"></div>
<!--END JUICEBOX EMBED-->

Not sure what to try next.  This site is an older html site.
thanks!

Christine

OK well, I just changed all of the navigation to go to this new page... and getting the Juicebox Error: Config XML file not found...  what gives?   Does it take time to propagate or something?

P.S.  I changed width to 100% in the script and that took care of it... thanks...

But another question...  :)

When someone clicks "expand gallery", then closes it, they leave the site...
Is there a work around for that, so it opens a new window? 
I don't see option for that anywhere in the set up, script, etc.

Or should I have not ticked off a box when setting up the gallery... and if so, can I go back and edit, without re-uploading all?


Thanks again!
Christine

Actually, I did nothing since I posted...so not sure why it remedied itself.

I'm wondering if my browsers are having issues... but when I clicked on the link in the post I COULD see it, and it was even on chrome, which is misbehaving the most, since I disabled java.

I notice it is not centered...  I put the size at 80% due to the nature of this fussy site...
So, what is best way to make it go full width OR simply center on that page?



Do you have a gallery that would simply show images all as thumbnails, such as 3 across, 3 deep, for instance... and then when you click on one image it opens it larger, with option to then click thru all of them?

Thanks again...

With alot of trial and error, I at least got the xml error where before there was a blank page, so hoping I am closer.

I changed my code a bit, based on other posts I saw...
But, am a little confused on how to upload and name/call the folder...
This static,older site was originally created in php, but I don't see any php there... yet the page extensions are .php.  Usually html embed works without issue on this site, so not sure what I'm doing wrong.

This is a temporary fix to this site, since it is process of redesign and moving to WordPress... so hoping this is shown to be fairly easy to use, or I won't be upgrading and purchasing... Hope you can help...  I saw you had posts on using this on Wordpress, so need to check those out for future reference.

Here is the current test page url... (not linked to the nav yet)...
http://www.fastlanetravel.com/flt-gallery.php

Here are the steps I took:

  • Created the JuiceBox with your interface.

  • Saved it in a folder on my computer, named flt-gallery...

  • Inside that folder, left the html named index.html

  • Uploaded the entire folder into the "public_html" folder.

  • Set up a new html PAGE and named it flt-gallery also... "just in case"

  • Initially, pasted the embed code that your interface gave me, but nothing worked.

  • Reviewed a few posts here, and changed it to the following...

  • Am now getting the xml config error. "Config XML file not found."

I CAN see this gallery when I preview it locally... just an FYI... but assumed I would be able to.

<!--START JUICEBOX EMBED-->
<script src="http://www.fastlanetravel.com/flt-gallery/jbcore/juicebox.js"></script>
<script>
new juicebox({
containerId : "juicebox-container",
baseUrl : 'http://www.fastlanetravel.com/flt-gallery/',
galleryWidth: "90%",
galleryHeight: "100%",
backgroundColor: "#222222"
});
</script>
<div id="juicebox-container"></div>
<!--END JUICEBOX EMBED-->

Wondering if simple viewer would be easier in this instance?
Long term goal, would be to have mini galleries on approximately 8 tour pages, plus testimonial page, etc.... So any input appreciated... and as stated above, moving site to WordPress.

Thanks!
