Topic: Deleting Images & Replacing?

When I delete Images...images still stays in Images view or black box appears? Try to replace with new image same name and Juicebox gets hung up. Need to quit and reopen till i get a message image is missing? It is a work flow problem.

Re: Deleting Images & Replacing?

This is a known bug. However, it has already been addressed and will be fixed in the next version.
Unfortunately, if you need to remove images from an existing album, the only workaround at the moment would be to remove them manually (delete the images and thumbnails from the 'images' and 'thumbs' folders and delete the corresponding complete <image> entries from the gallery's XML file).

imagesURL entries from gallery's XML file (is that going into code) or deleting image from Juicebox pro images window?

Re: Deleting Images & Replacing?

Sorry. I should have said "complete <image> entries" rather than "imageURLs" in my post above. (I have now corrected it for others reading the post.)

To manually remove an image from a gallery, open the 'config.xml' file in a plain text editor and delete the entire <image> tag corresponding to the image you wish to remove.
A complete <image> entry will look something like this:

<image imageURL="images/wide.jpg"
    thumbURL="thumbs/wide.jpg"
    linkURL="images/wide.jpg"
    linkTarget="_blank">
    <title><![CDATA[Title text goes here.]]></title>
    <caption><![CDATA[Caption text goes here.]]></caption>
</image>

(You can also delete the corresponding images and thumbnails from the 'images' and 'thumbs' folders but this is not strictly necessary to remove an image from a gallery. If the image is not listed in the XML file, then it will not be displayed in the gallery.)

In any case, this is no longer necessary.
The Juicebox-Pro download zip file has been repackaged with the fixed version of JuiceboxBuilder-Pro (the Juicebox-Pro core files remain the same) and you can download it using the link from your purchase email.
Once you install the latest version of JuiceboxBuilder-Pro, you should no longer experience this issue.
