Old computer died.  Have installed LR and the JB pro plugin on new computer.  How can I configure all the same settings as int he past?  I don't remember them all and it I'm having a hard time getting new web galleries to match the old ones.  Examining the config.xml and index.html created in the past does not help because the tags in those files don't match the names of the settings in the LR UI.

A related question would be, can I edit any of the JB files so the defaults are what I want to use?

Thanks!

The following are from galleries with settings I want to reproduce...

Here is my index.html file

Could you take a look at the attached .7z archive containing config.xml, index.html and the jbcore subdirectory.  If you can find anything that looks like it might cause trouble, I would be grateful.

I find that the same kind of failure (all html files, no images) happens sometimes with the galleries that came with LR,as well.  Less often with the stock galleries, but it still happens sometimes.

  • The number of images does seem to make a difference, in that if there are only a few images to test, the export works, but with a few thousand images, it fails.

  • I've tried narrowing it down to a specific image by exporting first half of the ones I want, then the second half.  I've spent a lot of time with such narrowing, but all individual images work, but when there is a group of even a few hundred from one day, the export fails.

  • I'm using LR 6.14 (I guess this is classic).

  • I've also optimized the catalog, restarted LR, rebooted the computer, selected only images (no video).

  • I have reconnected all missing images.

Something must be corrupted somewhere, but how to even tell what?

Could I from the Library module of LR export the full size images to the images folder and small versions to the thumbs folder?  Would JB-Pro's html work with that?

I successfully used the Lightroom plugin for JB-pro to produce a gallery that I'm satisfied with.  So I created another collection; then tweaked a few settings (gallery title, moved the title from right to left, changed height from 100% to 95%, added folder name to the custom caption, I don't recall if anything else different).  Then when I export, it prompts for where to save the gallery and the name. Once I hit ok, I get a progress bar that says preparing for export.  When that progress is done, there is no sign that it is doing anything at all, when it should be doing the export.  The export destination folder has config.xml, index.html and a jbcore folder (no images, nor thumbs folders)

I've restared Lightroom and the computer with no change.  I'm using LR 6 classic.

What other info can help diagnose?

Thank you, Steven.  The html you provide works, but when I add the relevant parts to my index.html created by JB's LR plugin, I get the textbox and button, but no action at all when I click the button.

Here is original index.html

Can you tell me what is wrong?

Also, is there a way to make the added showThumbPage textbox be inside the dark area, so it looks like a part of the web page?

Also, why on earth does the index.html generated by Juicebox have the <script>...</script> in the <body>...</body> instead of the <head>...</head> area?

Sorry, I don't know good unambiguous keywords for this: 
How can I navigate by jumping many pages at a time? 
Is there a slider or a way to enter a page number? 

Use case: I'm creating a number of galleries with >1000 photos each; putting as many thumbs on a page as reasonable (>30), but I still have >100 pages.  There will be times when I or another user wants to jump from beginning to middle.  Not fun to click the forward arrow 100 times for that.

I just experienced what sounds similar with -Pro v 1.5.1

I got a gallery all set with 60 photos, then went back to the Start tab and selected "Open gallery..."
Then I selected the rest of the 3848 images for this album.
Then Juicebox-Pro promptly exited with no warning.
Sounds like a longstanding issue based on a platform limitation.

  • Please provide more specific guidance than "smaller batches."  Does that mean 60 or 100 or 200 or ...?

  • What is the relevant measure of "smaller"?  Number of images?  Total size of all images selected? Something else?

  • Please enhance the sofware with a warning that too many files are being added and tell me to select fewer.  Don't just crash!  Check when the crash becomes likely and let me have another chance.

  • Does the Lightroom plugin have the same limitation?
    If not, is there a way to collect all the settings and apply them in LR?

Thank you!

Thank you, Steven!  I've been really hunting, and Juicebox is the first tool that will fulfill my needs (err, strong desires) in a gallery.  Maybe others will too, but I just can't tell for sure.

Take a look at this demo gallery with 3 rows of thumbnails: https://www.juicebox.net/demos/pro/simp … ion=CENTER

That gallery is what I want!
Can I add a page or screen number to it, like "Page 20 of 30" (if that 3x10 had 900 photos and I'm looking at the screen with number 600 on it?

If you do not want a Multi-Size Image gallery, then you can assign a unique linkURL for each image (which you could point towards a large image).

You'll need to provide the large images yourself and ensure that your linkURL entries point towards them (with either absolute or relative paths).

Yes, I'd rather not have multi-size, so would I have to do anything manually, or is assign a unique linkURL for each image something that an option tells Juicebox to do?

Should we move this to Juicebox-Pro?  I have not purchased, yet, but seems most of the answers require -Pro, and that's fine with me.

Hi, I'm sorry if this is the wrong place to post this, but I'm a new user of Juicebox-Lite, and I find that it looks pretty good, but I want to have a lot more thumbnails.  Is there a way to have 20 or maybe 50?  I realize the large image on the web page would then be more of a medium sized image. 
I also want clicking on the larger image (or somewhere) to open the full sized full resolution image in a separate browser tab.
Is there a way to fulfill both of those?
Should this be on the Juicebox-Pro forum?  (I will buy it if I'm assured of being able to do that!)
