5.01 Show Recent Gallery Layout Options Error

bicpm · March 10th, 2005, 08:47 AM

Ok so another error I found...this is for Photopost 5.01 and the recent additions.

If you change the layout options in admin to 5 columns, and a number divisible by 5 like 25,30,35 etc.... there are always 3 less photos than what should be. Meaning I set it up for 5 coulmns with 25 images and it shows 4 rows with 5 columns = 20 photos and it adds 2 more on the 5th row. The 5th row should be entirelly filled up but it isn't. It is missing 3 photos.

My layout options are set to the following:

Quote:

Number of columns for most recent additions section? 5
Number of photos to display in the most recent additions section? 25
Show recent photos in default location (bottom)? (if no, will display at top) yes
Show Most Recent Additions on Index page? yes
PhotoPost main table width, percent or pixels. 98%
Select a theme for your website: Default
Color for image borders: #000000
Pixel size of borders for images/thumbnails: 1
Select a border for your thumbnails: thmbnail-round

When you change the setting in the admin panel, if you have a cookie set which is a different multiplier than the number you have saved, then it will be skewed until you change your default setting.

We save a cookie so the user doesnt have to pick a new per page value every time they visit. If you change the forum layout, then that cookie may not be of the right multiplier. Selecting a new "default" will overright the old value and bring you back into the proper layout.

Do you mean changing the "Select a theme for your website" option to default again? This does not do anything. The problem still persists.

Problem still persists eventhough i cleared my own cache and cookies, changed the default in the layout, changed most settings.....

Do you have an example site? Nothing I can reproduce either.

Remember as you enter a category also it will only show max the number of images in the specific cat it does not pull from everywhere once you enter a category

I find no issues with your login cookies or albums.

If I click a Private gallery using the login you provided I enter just fine. The password is not dropped.

Clear your cache and cookies

The only thing you need to do is update to 5.01 as of today and upload showalbums.php as Michael fixed a setting that was allowing albums to show all a users photos instead of just the albums photos

Cleared my cache and cookeis, updated the showalbums (actually updated any file that had any "show" infront if it) and the problem is still there. I am not the only one having this problem, everyone using the site has the problem so i do not see any possible way you could've missed the error. Please look at the attached JPG to see the error.

You have 2 separate threads with PM sent Omegatron above is about your cookie issue which I show is fine

I will look at the code on this and let you know but I can not replicate this on my install as if I select 5 and 25 it shows just that. Yours is showing 27

bicpm · March 11th, 2005, 01:45 PM

it is showing 22 not 27 (4 rows of 5 each plus 2 photos on row 5) check the picture

Chuck S · March 11th, 2005, 01:51 PM

Yup miscount of rows but anyway how about catperms? Have you checked all the obvious as I can not replicate this

bicpm · March 11th, 2005, 01:55 PM

Wait, you are telling me when you go to the site you see 5 full rows? Yes i checked all obvious items including SQL settings.....
