Hi CMS Builder friends,

I’m looking for a gallery solutions for a CMS Builder site, I’m doing for a photographer.

Is it possible to do a gallery like this: http://fotograf-aasmul.dk/?mode=show&page=41

Thanks!

Also other solutions, that solve my problem in another way, so it still looks good, are welcome…

I looked at the code and couldn't tell exactly what script that was.

One that is similar is called "Galleria"

A successful implementation of galleria and CMS builder can be found here:

http://www.sagentic.com/gallery/demo/index.php

and

http://www.sagentic.com/gallery/demo/index2.php

The Galleria Project can be found here:

http://code.google.com/p/galleria/

This took about 5-10 minutes of installation and coding. I didn't do any extra styling. It's doesn't get any easier.

Hi Kenny,

First of all, thank you very much for your help so far. The solution you came up with, seemes to be just the right for me. Especially the version of Galleria shown as Demo 2.

Maybe I ask too much now, but could you post the index2.php file and the preset (schema) file where you implemented Galleria?

I’m in a hurry now and think I could save some time, if I can see an example of how the Galleria code is looking, when it is together with the php code on a CMS Builder page.

Or am I wrong, when I suppose it’s all about using a JavaScript, which is controlling how the images in the gallery appear on the page?

I have never worked with a gallery before and never used more than one image on each page on sites, I’ve done with CMS Builder. That’s why I maybe ask some stupid questions here right now…

Create a section with a "Title" textfield and a "Content" Upload

Upload the files for Galleria into a folder with a file that contains this code:

<?php header('Content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8'); ?>
<?php
  
  require_once "/home/XXXXXXX/public_html/webadmin/lib/viewer_functions.php";

  list($demo_galleryRecords, $demo_galleryMetaData) = getRecords(array(
    'tableName'   => 'demo_gallery',
    'where'       => whereRecordNumberInUrl(1),
    'limit'       => '1',
  ));
  $demo_galleryRecord = @$demo_galleryRecords[0]; // get first record

?>

		$('.gallery_demo_unstyled').addClass('gallery_demo'); // adds new class name to maintain degradability
		$('.nav').css('display','none'); // hides the nav initially
		
		$('ul.gallery_demo').galleria({
			history   : false, // deactivates the history object for bookmarking, back-button etc.
			clickNext : false, // helper for making the image clickable. Let's not have that in this example.
			insert    : undefined, // the containing selector for our main image. 
								   // If not found or undefined (like here), galleria will create a container 
								   // before the ul with the class .galleria_container (see CSS)
			onImage   : function() { $('.nav').css('display','block'); } // shows the nav when the image is showing

Change the fields in the code to match your setup.

Hello,

I had a problem with the gallery above, because its css did all the time override the one, I had on the page.

Now I’m looking for this one: http://www.dhtmlgoodies.com/index.html?whichScript=image_slideshow

The only problem is, that I don’t know how to get the php commands from CMS Builder to fit in, so I can see the images in the right way.

Also I’m looking for this one, to have on the frontpage: http://www.dhtmlgoodies.com/index.html?whichScript=image_slideshow2

There is the same problem with both, that I can’t figure out how to use them together with CMS Builder.

And how to protect my own page layout, when using galleries with their own css? Is there any easy way to solve that?

Any help out there? Thanks!

Hi there.

Thanks for posting!

There is probably going to be more to this one than we can really handle through support. If you like, we could try a consulting project on it :).

Send me an email through consulting@interactivetools.com and we'll go from there.

Thanks!
