New Template - DELICIOUS v1.0 is Now Out [Archive]

shutterhead

09-23-2007, 01:42 PM

Finally... it's out of BETA...

************************************************** *************
THE BUGS IN IE HAVE BEEN FIXED SO IGNORE THE NEXT 12 OR SO POSTS.
************************************************** *************

Delicious is a fresh and tastey photoblogging template for Pixelpost. My goal was to keep it clean and simple yet elegant and to step up pixelpost's layout options. The main image template has a Adobe Flash kinda feel to it.

This newest version simplifies the v0.1 BETA... the goal was clean up... not recreate so it's not ground breakingly different. It's simpler and re-developed to be a template you can easily adapt to your own taste.

Here's what's simpler / cooler...

1. NO ADD-ONS are necessary
2. No more tables... Yippeee!
3. Significantly improved CSS files and layout of template files
4. Black and white themes are still switchable... but you are encouraged to modify the look and feel of each
5. Image Description and Comments have been seperated into different slide-outs to maximize the real estate for each section... some might not like this because it now requires another click by the user, but I think it helps cleans things up even further.
6. No more cut off comments for people that get a bunch.

Should now validate Ok.

Anyway, hope you enjoy... feel free to make it your own, but please leave credit in there somewhere for me.

Download link...

Demo...

Thanks everyone for your patience!

Shutterhead: Once again a cool template. Thank you for this.

One question especially to GeoS, how can I integrate the function like you have on your browse page. I mean the kind of browsing by date, tag and category. When you click on tag, the tag will slide down. One click more and it returns. And the same for the other.

It want it in my template what do I need for that?

Marek

09-27-2007, 08:49 AM

maybe I'm blind, but I can't enter any text below the image. In which line in the image_template.html I have to put the text when I want that it appears below the image?
In the previous version it works fine, but now it will be shown above the image.

There are still problems with IE
When you try to see the Comments you will notice, that the name and the post date of the picture doesn't display properly.

The readability of the text in white is poor.

It is a good idea to make the movement(display) of the Comments/Leave Comment pages in one direction - up->down.
When you click Details->Comments the Details window closes down->up and the Comments windows opens up->down. And this is done at the same time. It is a good idea to close the Details window up->down or without any effect and open the Comments window up->down.
It's the same with Comments->Leave a Comment

Otherwise - Great Template!

PP. Still waiting for the Delicious Light
PP2. English is not my native language. Sorry if I have any mistakes.

09-27-2007, 02:06 PM

IvanZhelev - -

I don't understand your up down down up down down up up thing...

But I did tweak the toggle action.

Also added a place to put a footer below the image...

Also made the text on white darker...

==================

RADY - -

Did not validate CSS files... now you're nit pickin.

If you can give me a screenshot of the off-center you are seeing I'd appreciate it... it's not perfect, it's not really obvious in IE6, IE7 or Safari.

==================

GENERAL COMMENT

Just like your photography, I would hope to see some creative things done with this template since it's essentially meant to be a platform for tweaking to suit your particular need(s) / style.

dakwegmo

09-27-2007, 02:11 PM

I was just coming to say what IvanZhelev said about the toggling of comments. Even on the demo site, the transitions are funky.

In which line in the image_template.html I have to put the text when I want that it appears below the image?

Depending on where under the image you want it, you can put it between these two lines </div> 

</div> 

or between these two
</div> 

</div> 

or just before the closing </body> tag.

09-27-2007, 02:12 PM

But it seems Jay has already added a place for it, so look for that.

shutterhead

09-27-2007, 02:17 PM

DAKWEGMO - read my last post... all of his comments have been addressed... and the demo and downloads have been updated... if you are referring to the transition between comments and info... I like it the way it is... the transition between recent comments and leave a comment has been adjusted. Scriptaculous isn't perfect either so depending on the position and order of the DIV's (especially 3 of them to toggle), it get's tricky.

The image footer was done by adding another DIV so that you can control the styling of the text underneath the image.

Great ! Thanks for the update. But I'm afraid there are still problems with IE, everything is set to the left of the screen, the image being cropped a bit.

Another problem, with the first version and the white template. It appears that there are no scrolling enabled with comments. Everything is just right out of the box, or image height if you like. Not sure what I'm saying is all that clear so here's an example, choose white and look at comments.

http://troisieme-oeil.eu/index.php?showimage=60

With the black style, everything is contained in the box and scrolling down is possible.

As i don't know anything about css, maybe you know why?

shutterhead

09-27-2007, 04:02 PM

unless someone posts a screenshot, I can't help you on the not centered thing.

Would one of you that is seeing this OFF-CENTER phenomenon, please post a screen shot?

nonetheless, you'll want to make sure you clean your cache out... but the example you are linking to is the OLD version so that doesn't help. I think I made it pretty clear that I didn't want to release the old version but I was getting 40 emails a day asking for it... so I did... now the new version is out and as far as I can see on IE6 and IE7, there are no odd behaviours that I can see so please send a screenshot.

In the new version, the comments are not INSIDE the photobox div so they will flow outside the image... and that's the way I feel it works best given the variation of image sizes people are using this template for... besides, the scroller inside the photobox is fugly.

09-27-2007, 04:42 PM

Jay, I've tested IE6 and 7 on both your demo page and my test site and don't see any issues with the screen being off center.

The problem with the off-center was something from my php files.. after weeks growing gray-hair editing the template files i finally realized the problem was from a php..
looks good now on IE.. there's a slight problem in firefox though now, the title of the photoblog is not clickable..

as for validating css and xhtml.. would be really really sweet :D

@Marco
try re-uploading the php files again, the problem is there :)

Marco

09-27-2007, 06:18 PM

Php files ? You mean index.php ? Tryed that, but doesn't work. I haven't modified any actually. Could you please specify ?

The main thing about scrolling for comments is that it doesn't go over the image footer, which does look a bit weird, in my opinion.

And true, the site title isn't clickable in Firefox anymore.

IE7:

It's nearly impossible for me to help you if I can't duplicate the problem. You may want to try making your thumbnails 50px x 50px like the readme indicates... anything bigger than 50 will grow the right side (actually the opposite of your problem.

I know what's up with the Logo not clickable, I'll fix that... but "fresh" to me seems like a more logical place that people will click on.

An idea already submitted to Jay, and it seems a bit tricky, but if anyone could manage to set the "Detail" tab to close everythiing instead of having to click on the "close" link", it would be great. What I wish, would be to give the "detail" tab the same functions as the "close" link. Hope that's clear enough !

Which program are you using to edit HTML files?

09-29-2007, 12:36 AM

I almost always use notepad. I don't think it's something on my end because I will just upload the template without editing the template. I think it's something to do with pixelpost install or something other than the actual template.

When I open the image_template.html file with notepad...the multiple </div>'s don't show up. When you open my site in IE7 and view page source I see two </div> at the very top.

Really odd. Anyways...hope someone has a suggestion.

Thanks!

I've just started using it on my site and have encountered a glitch. On some photos, the ">" image that should be on the right side of the photo sometimes appears lower on the site. For example, see http://strandedpixels.com/index.php?showimage=124.

the new one is too complicated for newbies .. and some users prefer easy browsing ..

After playing arriund some hours, I´ve changed a little bit of the style.
I did the Description, Comments and Leave a comment on one overlaypage, so the user does not have to click severall times for leaving a comment.
Everything works graet, but one thing I want to have but don´t know how.
How can I change what happens after pushing the "Say it" button?
I want that a short message will be shown in an overlay window like the description, and then be closed after some seconds and the picture is shown.
Is this possible and if yes what and how to do it?

And how do I make aspace between the comments, now they are like glued together and its not very reader friendly.

Thanks a lot

I cant seem to get any of the info re: -lens/aperture/shutter/iso to post correctly. Actually I cant get to it at all.
Is this an auto feature that uses exif info?
Or do I have to manually input all this data?

First, let me apologize for not responding to anyone... I don't know what it is but I've subscribed to this thread, but never get any emails when someone replies. So the busy people we all are, I only come here when I can, because I c

As far as some of the "glitches" go, I'm going to let it ride out a little more before I do a revision. I have noticed the "<" arrow below my image an I have no clue why it randomly does it, but I'll figure it out. I know why the title isn't clickable, but I just haven't set aside time to fix it.

As for the other comment about a single comments section, this may be something I do, but I certainly don't want to just change it because 1 or 2 people ask for it... because the other 1500 might like it like it is... majority rules and if not enough people ask for it, then it makes no sence for me to change it.

I will say, however, that I am very impressed with what some of you are doing with Delicious... still all clean customizations, but appropriately personalized. Since many of you have already made delicious your own, I will post a change log (with code) that specifically defines what I did to fix/update. This way, if you want to incorprate the changes, you can and know how to instead of having to re-do your personaliztion to a new rev.

OK. Cool. I got my exif data loading in there correctly now.

Im sure most people know this, but when saving a file in PS, do not use SAVE FOR WEB. It strips all exif data.
What I did was make a SAVE AS action that will keep the exif.

Now Im getting the random dropped arrow on the image. Like everyone else, it is just dropping to the bottom of the page.
I hope this can get resolved soon.

I've got the solution(kind of) for the people having problems with the arrow dropping down randomly on images.
Its not random.

Do not have any images higher than 600px vertically.
Horizontally Ive gone up to 800px with no problems.
But vertically it has to be under 600px. (599px works).

Hope this works for everyone. Im not good with code and cant figure out the mechanics of why this happens, but just figured it out from looking at my own posted images.
woohoo!

the scroller inside the photobox is fugly.

For anyone interested, there's a script out there called flexcroller (http://www.hesido.com/web.php?page=customscrollbar) that lets you customize the scroll bars. I've been meaning to try it, but I've been swamped with other things lately.

BTW - I've gotten quite a few emails asking for "permission" to remove the link to my site...

No one needs to leave my name in tact on either the image or about pages... feel free to delete this if you don't like it... but please leave the comments (code comments) in tact. If you do leave my name in the pages, Wordpress gives me stats where I can see who's linking back to my site (the link on the template will do this)... I see you're using Delicious and can come check your stuff out and how you've manipulated it. So don't feel obligated to leave my name in there ruining your site... I never liked leaving anyone else's name so you shouldn't have to either.

shutterhead

10-02-2007, 05:58 PM

I think I know where the problem lies, and I have a pseudo solution...

Provided you are working on the "as downloaded" version of delicious, in each of the CSS files at around line 220, you will see this...

#menu_browse_prev, #menu_browse_next{
width: 50%;
height: 100%;
background: transparent url(../images/blank.gif) no-repeat; /* Trick IE into showing hover */
display: block;
}

changing the above to this...

#menu_browse_prev, #menu_browse_next{
width: 49%;
height: 100%;
background: transparent url(../images/blank.gif) no-repeat; /* Trick IE into showing hover */
display: block;
}

fixed the problem for me... and will allow you to post images 20 gazillion pixels tall... The difference between the two is the width of the DIV's that hold the arrows... this isn't the IDEAL solution since it now produces a 2% gap between hot spots for next and previous... when i'm home and away from work, I'll clear my brain and re-evaluate. For some reason, tall images are pushing the right floating div (the NEXT arrow) BELOW the left floating div... like 50% + 50% width is greater than 100%. Might not make sence to everyone, but I think this is the area that you need to be a fixin.

Give it a try (don't forget to do it to BOTH CSS files (light and dark) and REFRESH your page - or better yet clean out your cache) and if others confirm it fixed their problem, then I'll make sure there isn't a better way and incorporate into v1.1.

As for the other comment about a single comments section, this may be something I do, but I certainly don't want to just change it because 1 or 2 people ask for it... because the other 1500 might like it like it is... majority rules and if not enough people ask for it, then it makes no sence for me to change it.

Right now this is the only thing keeping me from switching to the delicious template. I already have enough people telling me that the comments link is obscure, even though there are two links to it on my main page. I'm not sure having it more prominent will help, but I'm certain adding extra clicks to the process will result in a decrease in the already scant comments I get.

Hi Shutterhead.

First and foremost, thanks for your ongoing help. You're great!

About your solution (changing 50% to 49%), I have successfully implemented the correction and it works perfectly.

I have however used 49.9% instead of the 49% you suggested and it also works great.... perhaps that will minimize the 2% gap you are refering to in your previous post...

Finally, please not that this glitch ALSO affects horizontal images. Not just the vertical ones. FYI, the problem is also fixed using the same correction.

Thanks for your help and time!

give me some time to hash over this... without everything in front of me, I can't say this with confidence, but there may be a way to make this a switchable feature... because the two div's in question are so close together in code.

Where do I find the pages where it tells me after adding a comment, that I will be redirected to the page shortly?
Where can I found the commands that tells the button what to do if clicked.
I hope you understand what I mean.

Has anyone figured out the Random </div> at the top of templates? After some research I found that it's not a problem with this template at all because it happens on any template I choose.

What could it be....something with my pixelpost install? Or database? If ANYONE has any suggestions please help. I guess I could also move this post to another location as well.

Thanks in advance.

My site is onepixelshy.com

If it's happening with every template, then you really should start a new thread. If someone else is having this problem, and they aren't using this template, they aren't going to be reading this thread.

I would suggest, though, start by disabling addons one at a time. If you disable an addon, and the </div> goes away, it's pretty safe to assume that was the culprit.

shutterhead

10-03-2007, 01:59 AM

I've made a few changes... and uploaded them to the demo site.

let me know what you think...

tweaked is...

- logo text is now selectable...
- image info, comments and comments form on a SINGLE div... with some additional styling... works well with both landscape and portrait orientations
- larger base font size
- lighter text on black theme

the overlapping at the end of the image for large comments sections is a bit abrupt but it's gonna take more thought.

download is still previous v1.0

I'm not sure if across the board the overlay covers the ENTIRE image on all browsers... can someone with IE6 and IE7 on a PC let me know if the DIV covers the entire image at this post...

shutterhead,
Thanks for the great template ;)

I would like to give you some advise about the interface.
Both the 1.0 and 1.1 versions have major weaknesses in the interface.
When you click "Details" (v.1.0) the description screen opens up with a movement from the upper to the lower border of the image. This is a pretty good effect which you have partially lost in version 1.1

When you click "Details" in v.1.0 you have one main window with:
1.Title | Post Date
2. Description
3. Comments | Close
4. Exif Data
5. Categories
This is a good point to start ;)

I'ill be better to remove the 2. Comments | Close
Now you'll have:
1.Title | Post Date
2. Description
3. Exif Data
4. Categories

Now Add Comments() (comments counter in the brackets) and display all comments.
You'll have:
1.Title/Post Date
2. Description
3. Exif Data
4. Categories
5. Comments()

After all comments add "Leave a Comment | Close"
You'll have the following:
1.Title/Post Date
2. Description
3. Exif Data
4. Categories
5. Comments()
6. Leave a Comment | Close

All of the above has to be in one window ;)

When you click "Leave a Comment" you must close the "Description" window without any effect and open the "Leave a Comment" window(v.1.0) with the effect that I mentioned in the beggining of the post.
In the "Leave a Comment" window you remove the "Comments" option on the second line(leave only "Description | Close")
When you click "Say", or "Description" you close the "Leave a Comment" window without any effect and open the description window with the effect, mentioned in the beginning.

When you click "Close" on either the "Description" or "Leave a Comment" windows you close them with movement from the upper to the lowet border.

In v1.0 if you are in the "Leave a Comment" window and click "Details" from the menu above the image you open the "Details" window over the "Leave a Comment" window. It will be better to close the "Leave a Comment" window without any effect and open the "Description" window with the efect mentioned above.

I hope you understand what i mean. If not - please contact me at abdon_84(skype), or 273978993(ICQ).

PS. I have not made the above modifications, but will try to do as soon as possible :)

IvanZhelev

there is no version 1.1... just to clear that up. what is currently on my demo site are some things I'm trying to get working.

what we have here is one person wanting it one way another wanting it another way... the next prefers something totally different. I encourage you to modify Delicious to suit your needs and / or likes.

Though i didn't like it before, folks like dakwegmo and others who have emailed me have got me leaning towards a SINGLE slide-out which makes for as simple an interface as possible. this is how I'm going to proceed... as for the choppy motion on the slide-out, that has been fixed... again, a result of testing different things out. MIN-HeIGHT helped resolve one issue on some browsers but then causes the jumpy motion on the slideout so it's all a balancing act.

the only problem holding up a v1.1 release (which will look very much like the current demo) is to figure out how to have the faded div cover the ENTIRE image when displayed, without chopping off it's contents if it's too long for the current image. I've tried all the overflow options, min-height, the <IMAGE_HEIGHT> tag, etc. I have a feeling that the position:absolute value is what's preventing me from doing what I want to do so I'm going to evaluate that next. This is basically what I can't figure out, so any help along these lines would be appreciated.

Hi, I've a big problem!

Today I've update my pixelpost from 1.5 to 1.6

When i've finish the work also with Delicious and Delicious V1.0 they don't work good.

Infact its impossible to wiew the browse page and about page!!!

Please help me!!!!

PS: how can I set the Detali window like the demo version?!

Please!!! its important!!!

the site is: www.meteopassione.eu

Thanks!

10-11-2007, 05:07 PM

Your upgrade from 1.5 to 1.6 is most likely incomplete. Make sure you have uploaded all files for pixelpost v1.6

In addition to all the folders, do not forget the index.php file either.

NikoDj

10-11-2007, 05:17 PM

But, the index page it's working correctly...

Dkozikowski

10-11-2007, 05:26 PM

Ok, great. How about the files inside the includes/ folder? Were they all uploaded?

In sequential order, Login to your admin panel and visit your browse page. Add &errors to the end of the browse page url.

What does the error state?

NikoDj

10-11-2007, 05:41 PM

I don't understand...

this is the error: Fatal error: Call to undefined function: unserialize_exif() in /web/htdocs/www.meteopassione.eu/home/addons/35mm.php on line 19

but the 35 mm addon its operational on image page without problem...

There it is.

v1.6 has changed the way EXIF is handled. All Pixelpost v1.5 addons dealing with EXIF are incompatible with v1.6 unless the addon author has updated the addon.

Please update your old 35mm addon with the new version, http://www.pixelpost.org/extend/addons/35-mm/

Hi
A couple things - i noticed my thumbnails are not working anywhere; i tried rebuilding in the admin, i tried re-sizing, etc, to no avail. Any ideas?
Also - and this is a text-formatting issue, not a bug - but i want to be able to use line-breaks for the text in my description area as i am putting poetry in there as opposed to a description, and am unsure how to do this (i've tried just using html in the post, but no luck).

Any help is greatly appreciated, thank you!

a few questions:

--when i'm on the browse page, categories default to "All". i want to change "All" to something else, but can't find the code. where do i go to change this?

--under the image description it says "Categories: Categories:", etc. How do i delete the second "Categories"...i can't find it.

--if i go to the comments sections and there are no comments it says "No Comments Yet". i would like to change what it says, but i can't find it either.

--under the image description, it gives the number of comments (i.e. 3 comments). however if there's only 1 comment it still says "1 comments". is there a way to have it say "1 comment"?

--my rss link doesn't work. when i click it the only thing that happens is my url adds a "#" to the end. any thoughts?

Check the language files. For example, /language/lang-english.php

--under the image description, it gives the number of comments (i.e. 3 comments). however if there's only 1 comment it still says "1 comments". is there a way to have it say "1 comment"?

Replace the word "comments" with the template tag <IMAGE_COMMENT_TEXT> (http://www.pixelpost.org/docs/TemplateTags/IMAGE_COMMENT_TEXT)

--my rss link doesn't work. when i click it the only thing that happens is my url adds a "#" to the end. any thoughts?

Make sure your template uses the auto detect feed template tags <RSS_AUTODETECT_LINK> or <ATOM_AUTODETECT_LINK>

m0bius

10-23-2007, 03:18 AM

my template does have <RSS_AUTODETECT_LINK>, but the link does nothing. here's my site: http://twentyfourmillimeter.com/. if i add index.php?x=rss to the end of the url it does go to the rss feed.

i replaced "comments" with <IMAGE_COMMENT_TEXT>, but it still says "1 comments"

Dkozikowski

10-23-2007, 05:33 AM

Sorry, i did not realize you were referring to the link in your footer. The link in your header is correct and thats the most important one. just change the code to point to your feed instead of # IE: http://twentyfourmillimeter.com/index.php?x=rss

Thanks very much for launching the new version!!! I'm really grateful the categories are all sorted out now. It looks so much better! :D

There's some things I noticed though. The "home" link doesn't seem to work with Firefox (the text appears but its not linked). It works fine in IE though as in its clickable. I checked some others sites, those who posted their urls in this thread, it also appears to be so. I believe its this section below...

<div id="logo" style="width:<IMAGE_WIDTH>px;">
<div id="logo_sub">
<a title="click for home" href="index.php"><SITE_TITLE></a>
</div> 
</div> 

any idea how to make it work for good ol' firefox too?

I've tried this both in IE7 and the latest Firefox, was wondering if anyone else had encountered this problem?

First, thanks for the fantastic template.

I am totally new to all of this (blogging, pixelpost, CSS, php, etc.) so please be gentle!

I installed pixelpost and the delicious template and it seems to be kind of functioning - but not really.

http://cdkarts.com/blog

I have uploaded four images. I see them in the control panel, and they have been published. However, when I go to my blog address (above) using my normal browser (Camino on Mac) I only see one image, and one thumbnail. When I click on the "Archives" link, NO images appear (not even the one that is "fresh".

Stranger still, if I open Safari or Firefox and go to the address, I get a message saying "Coming soon. Nothing to show. No image to show here!"

What's going on?

dakwegmo

10-29-2007, 07:01 PM

switters, this could be an issue with the date/time on your webserver. Even though the images are publshed, if they aren't set to display until a date in the future, you won't see them unless you're logged in as admin. Though, I've just checked your site and there are indeed four thumbnails showing up.

To Everyone: This thread really should be reserved for comments relating to the DELICIOUS v1.0, template. If you're having a problem with pixelpost in general, see if you have the same problem with the simple or horizon template. If you do, then start a new thread in the pixelpost help forum. Posting your problem here means that only people who are interested in this template are likely to read it. Posting in the help forum means that someone who is willing/able to help is more likely to see it.

10-30-2007, 12:13 PM

Hmmm it gets weirder!

Just tried the template again at work using the latest Firefox and IE6 and it works in both, however in IE6 the border frame around the image is extended below the name and links below the image.

Wondering if it's anything to do with settings in Vista as thats the only differnce between my work and home machine.

dakwegmo

10-30-2007, 01:36 PM

If you're using Vista you're almost certainly running IE7. There are some big differences between IE6 and IE7 as far as how pages get rendered.

I would check the demo site in all the browsers you have available and make sure it's working there. If it is, then you can safely assume the problem is due to a modification from the original template. In order to troubleshoot that, you will probably need to leave the problem template up long enough that someone can look at it live to duplicate the problem.

Jonkai

10-30-2007, 01:46 PM

Thanks dakwegmo, I've re-applied the template... excuse the mess of some of it as I wanted it completed before using it :)

Anyway it's now online and hopefully someone can put me out of my misery heh :)

Edit: www.net-images.co.uk :)

Edit 2: I would love for the comments to stay within the image if you know what I mean, not sure if that is possible or if it would be a big job?

dakwegmo

10-30-2007, 02:08 PM

Ok. It looks like you're hard coding each of the DIVs to be the same height as your image. You probably need to specify how to handle overflow in order to make it scroll in IE7. Try adding overflow: auto; to the style information for your comments div.

Personne

10-30-2007, 03:54 PM

In your CSS, try to put

#recentcomments
{

padding-top: 17px;
padding-right: 22px;
padding-bottom: 17px;
padding-left: 22px;
width: 100%;
overflow, auto
}

I just updated to v1.1 also, all works fine, except the border around the picture on the first page. In v1.0 this worked fine.
I tried to get it back but somehow the main picture goes over the thumbs (50%). Anyone found a solution for this?

Its visible on the Demo site and if you want to see it more clearly, go to my site and see the border at the map section, that should also be on the main picture.
www.mythrill.nl

[edit]
So far I found out that its a stylesheet problem.
Using the v1.0 stylesheets f***s up the comments
I'm going to try and merge some stuff of the v1.0 to the v1.1 stylesheets.

[edit II]
Ok, I guess i was a bit to tired last night and couldn't get it right. I just started again and fixed it (quite simple)!
If you want the border around your images again simply replace the IMAGE Page Specific part of the CSS file by the following code (which is more or less the code from v1.0):

/* ========== IMAGE Page Specific ========== */

#image_wrapper {
position:relative;
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
}

#photobox {

#image_footer {

margin-top:8px;
}

#info {

filter:alpha(opacity=90);
-moz-opacity:.90;

Hello,
I've got a problem with the deliciousv1_1 template.
I do a change on my pixelpost test page. I don't do any change in the html but my thumbnails are in the middle of the main image. Please take a look.

http://www.mareknierychlo.de/zeugs/delicious1_1.jpg
Can somebody help me to get the thumbnails on the side of the image?

Mythrill

11-04-2007, 09:23 PM

Try the same thing as I did, Copy everything in relation to the main image and thumbnails from the v1.0 CSS file to the v1.1 CSS file (use the code from my previous post).
I had more or less the same problem only less extreme, I think it's because your thumbnails are bigger then the standaard 50x50.

Goodluck.

Marek

11-05-2007, 03:08 PM

I did it, but it didn't help. I also rebuild the thumbnails to 50x50, but this seems not to be causing for the issue.

2. RSS adds a # at the end of the url

Any explanations welcomed

i don't know much about css and html, so maybe it's a dumb question:

I'm now busy with fine-tuning the template but can anyone help me getting the first page xhtml validated? I removed all errors except one (there was only two real errors and one warning).

In the header of the image_template.html there are several links to javascript files but also one written javascript (which is not allowed according to the validation). How can I make this script in a separate file without breaking the browsing function?

I tried copy pasting it in a file and made a link, but then the browsing function doesn't work any more because the values <IMAGE_ID>, <IMAGE_NEXT_ID> and <IMAGE_PREVIOUS_ID> are not communicated to the file.

Many thanks!

dakwegmo

11-07-2007, 08:40 PM

How can I make this script in a separate file without breaking the browsing function?

The standard answer, you can't. The javascript relies on dynamic content that only gets populated when the templates are parsed through PixelPost. If you remove the javascript to a separate file, the tags aren't parsed and the script breaks.

The programmers answer. If you were so inclined, you could rewrite the javascripts so that everything is included in a separate file. The new file would have to be written in such a way that it expects certain parameters when called. You would then write the function calls into your template, using PixelPost tags to generate the necessary parameters. I can think of other ways to do it, but this seemed to be the simplest approach. Of course, if you're not a programmer, then this means nothing to you and you should refer to the standard answer above. Or enlist a programmer to help you figure it out.

Mythrill

11-08-2007, 12:06 PM

that's a pity. I'm an IT student but programming is definitely not my league. So for the moment I'll leave it like this. Maybe someday, if I'm less busy with my studies I might take a look at it again.

Hey guys !
First of all i would like to say that this template is one of the best i saw so far !
But i have some little problems :
. I write my rss link to the field to fill in in the image templates file but when i go on my website it says something different to my rss link : go see by yourselves www.gui-m.com

. I have another question, do you know how can I change quickly the size of my browse thunmnbails, and put them all equals. Because i've change templates often and each time it changes the size of them.

. How can i change size of thumbails aside of photos ?

That's it so far, by the way i putted a small radio player on my blog thought people will be able to listen to music and watch pics.

Thanks for you patience and sorry for my english i'm french

1) what Pixelpost tag do you use?
2) go into your Admin panel Option page, Thumbnails. There you can set a new size and rebuild your thumbnails according to this setting, but the cropping information will be gone
3) You mean the size of the thumbnail row on the image page? They are displayed in the size they are created. Rebuild them and they all will have the same size.
Or what do you mean?

JimmiJay

11-15-2007, 04:07 PM

I use the version 1.6.0 of pixelpost.
I tried to resize all my thumbails by clicking on resizing them all but i don't know why it does not work... I actually have to reupload my images to have them at the same size.

I meant the thumbnails aside the images in the Image ("Fresh") menu.

You only changed the auto discovery links, not the html link to the rss feed. Find this in your image_template.html
<a href="#" rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml"><img src="templates/delicious_v1_1/images/rss.gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>
And change it to
<a href="index.php?x=rss"><img src="templates/delicious_v1_1/images/rss.gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>

At the top of all of your html template files you will see lines pointing to the CSS stylesheets. One of the lines says default and one of them says alternate. Just change those lines to the way you want it...

I found the lines for the both stylesheets, but none of them contain alternate or default. How can i change this, what code to add ?

And i was wondering how would i change the background of the blog ?

Lazlo

11-17-2007, 06:55 AM

Just swap those two lines.

To change the background of the blog you have to edit the CSS file.

How can I change the thumbnails location to left ? Can I use them as a "L" shape (a part of them on the left of the image and a part at the bottom)?

I don't know too much html&co, but I can manage things if you can point the right direction.

PS. I'm using pp 1.6 and delicious 1.0. Thanks in advance!

Hi,

how can I change so that the menu bar always is on one row?
when I preview a image that has a small width, the menu bar will end up in 2 rows like this:

link1 - link2 -
link3 - link4

I want it like this:

link1 - link2 - link3 - link4

no matter the image size.

Anyone who understands what I'm looking for :)

The easiest thing to do would be to set the width of the menu div wide enough so that it never overflows to the next line.

You would need to change these lines in image_template.html
<div id="logo" style="width:39.9%;">
<div id="nav" style="width:59.9%;">

Remove the percentages and used a fixed pixel width. Unfortunately, I can tell you how this will affect the rest of the layout. Give it a try and report back if there are problems.

Check this one out:

This on is ok now:
<div id="nav" style="width:500px;">

Edit... never mind, I changed template..

sorry
But this one:
<div id="logo" style="width:1050px;">
have tried different sizes. no luck.

As you can see the text Photoblog and the nav i overlapping.

Edit:

I changed this one to:
<div id="header" style="width:300px;left:-21px;">

The nav bar is now always some pixles away from the Photoblog Text.
Don't know if I like when the nav bar moves around :/

Edit...

never mind, I changed template..

11-22-2007, 03:08 PM

latest version of delicious is 1.1

First you should check if the link to the stylesheet(s) is correct:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="templates/delicious_v1_1/styles/dark.css" title="dark" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="templates/delicious_v1_1/styles/light.css" title="light" />

and confirm that dark.css and/or light.css is within the templates/delicious_v1_1/styles/ folder.

Without seeing it it is hard to tell you anything more. Perhaps you could upload the complete delicious_v1_1 folder to your photoblog domain? You don't need to switch the template, just upload it, then I could have a look at the template and style files

I can only check if they are stored in the right place and the linking is correct which I can only see if you upload them.
Why not use a free FTP program like Filezilla?

Ok. But I have to do it at home. At home I do have Filezilla.
And then I should put it into the photoblog domain? Where is that
exactly? In the root directory? Is the version of delicious important?

11-24-2007, 07:58 AM

Manuel, it seems that everything in place.
Only thing what could be the reason is the duplicate style entry within the META tags.
Try to change the line of the second style sheet from
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="templates/delicious_v1/styles/light.css" title="light" />
to this:
<link rel="alternate stylesheet" type="text/css" href="templates/delicious_v1/styles/light.css" title="light" />

Or remove the second link rel stylesheet line (and perhaps the styleswitcher in the beginning of your body code too) for testing your stylesheet.

I want to change the order of appearance when someone clicks in my nav-bar on "Comments"

Right now the first thing which appears is the "image info", after that "Comments" and
then "Add a comment".

Is it possible to change the whole script so that "Add a comment" is the first thing shown after clicking?

And does anyone know how to implement a math captcha?

12-03-2007, 01:51 PM

as always: within the file image_template.html
Just switch the HTML blocks to where you want them.
But take care, if there is some absolute positioning in the css, you might have to change that (too)

And AFAIK there is no math captcha for Pixelpost right now.
I would suggest to use Akismet, then you won't need a captcha anyway

derlitograph

12-03-2007, 01:59 PM

I switched the html blocks but I should look at the css positioning.

no math captcha ok ;-)

Akismet does not work for me. Yesterday I switched of the Captcha Addon but left the Akismet protection running and I got about 100 Spam mails.
So I don't know why this is not working :-)

thanks!

I would guess it is this line within <div id="nav_sub">:

<IMAGE_COMMENTS_NUMBER><a onclick="Effect.toggle('info','BLIND'); return false;" title="View Image Title, Description and Comments" href="#">Comments</a>

Try to change it to this:
<IMAGE_COMMENTS_NUMBER><a onclick="Effect.toggle('addcomment','BLIND'); return false;" title="View Image Title, Description and Comments" href="#">Comments</a>

derlitograph

12-04-2007, 07:13 AM

This was also my first simple thought but when I do this nothing happens after "refreshing" and clicking on the "Comment"-link. No window opens - ...nothing!

austriaka

12-04-2007, 08:56 AM

ok, more complicated ;-)
try this line:
<IMAGE_COMMENTS_NUMBER><a onclick="Effect.toggle('comments','BLIND'); return false;" title="View Image Title, Description and Comments" href="#">Comments</a>
This should show you the recent comments instead of the image info.
To start with the addcomment form, you have to set the
<div id="recentcomments">
to
<div id="recentcomments" style="display: none;">

and the
<div id="addcomment" style="display: none;">
to
<div id="addcomment">

(not tested)

You took me to the right path. Great. Do you see any errors on my site now? Otherwise - SOLVED :-)

Yes.

It was a little bit more difficult but I played arround with always one eye on the result.

Thanks austriaka.

The last fight on my page is still open. CAPTCHA "Looks like you are a robot"-Sh**t
ah

I don't understand why it is so difficult.

The normal way should be "see the code - enter the code - accepted"
What is wrong with it?!?

Akismet does not work for me. Yesterday I switched of the Captcha Addon but left the Akismet protection running and I got about 100 Spam mails.
So I don't know why this is not working :-)

thanks!
Make sure you have signed up at WordPress.com to obtain an API key, and have entered that key in the Akismet addon in the Admin>Addons section. If you haven't, the Akismet addon won't do anything.

derlitograph

12-04-2007, 05:42 PM

do you have a phpinfo() file you can show us?

derlitograph

12-05-2007, 06:33 AM

Sorry this stupid question but:

Where do I find "phpinfo()"?

Yesterday I figured out that I have not entered the "include"-code into the index.php
But 20 Min. after refreshing Akismet and going through all install steps I received again 30 spam mails. And today also.

austriaka

12-05-2007, 07:11 AM

you don't have to enter any include code anywhere.
Which version are you using? (sorry, I know I have already asked that but I don't remember)
From version 1.6 Akismet is done with a real addon which comes with Pixelpost 1.6 installation and doesn't need any hacking anymore.

So if you use Pixelpost 1.6, please replace your files by the original files and just turn on the Akismet Addon, insert your key, set a value for how long to keep the spam marked comments and it should work!

phpinfo() is a PHP function which displays a lot of information about your PHP installation: http://de2.php.net/manual/de/function.phpinfo.php
Just create a file like this:
<?PHP
phpinfo()
?>
and save it as phpinfo.php
Upload it to your server root and call it like http://derlitograph.de/phpinfo.php
Tell me as soon as if you've done this and I'll have a look at it

derlitograph

12-05-2007, 07:44 AM

Interesting... :-)
Here is the file:
http://derlitograph.de/phpinfo.php

I had that phpinfo-file but not in my root folder located.

I'm using Pixelpost 1.5beta ;-(
"Schuster bleib bei deinen Leisten" or something like that.
I was scarred after running Pixelpost correctly to update again
and make a mistake.

But I'm determined to update to 1.7 now. I've made detailed notes about
every single step which is necessary and when I have time at the weekend
I will do it with FILEZILLA.

austriaka

12-05-2007, 10:30 AM

Updating to 1.7 is great, just for "Schusters" ;-) because the upgrade procedure works like a charm.
Just don't forget to remove the Akismet Addon file(s) within the addons folder before. Everything else ist just to upload with FTP, the necessary files will be replaced and the photos and thumbs won't be touched.

"Sockets" is enabled in your PHP, so I see no reason why Akismet should not work

Hello

I've just installed the Delicious theme and really like it.

I have a couple of n00b questions though -

1. When I click on the details link nothing happens. Where are the comments? Where's the description of the image?

2. How do I modify the About page?

3. At the bottom is the copyright statement. It currently reads "Your name goes here". How do I modify that?

Thank you very much!

austriaka

12-08-2007, 12:02 PM

1) you have to have JavaScript on in your browser to make the comment/description toggle work. If you have and it doesn't work there has to be a JavaScript error message somewhere, please post it here.

2) Edit about_template.html which comes within the delicious folder. Don't use a HTML WYSIWYG editor but a simple text editor, take care that the pixelpost template tags (like <SITE_TITLE> for example) are not changed.

3) Edit image_template.html which comes within the delicious folder. Don't use a HTML WYSIWYG editor but a simple text editor, take care that the pixelpost template tags (like <IMAGE_NAME> for example) are not changed.

I am trying to figure out how to make the dark version of delicious the default so that when someone new comes to my page, that's what they see. I don't see where in the code I change that. Can I change that? If there is no place to change it, do I have to delete the light file so that it's forced to only show the dark? Any help very much appreciated.

dhdesign

12-14-2007, 10:17 PM

In each of the template files (image_, browse_, about_), change the following lines in the head section:

Existing:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="templates/delicious_v1_1/styles/dark.css" title="dark" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="templates/delicious_v1_1/styles/light.css" title="light" />

Change to:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="templates/delicious_v1_1/styles/dark.css" title="dark" />
<link rel="alternate stylesheet" type="text/css" href="templates/delicious_v1_1/styles/light.css" title="light" />

That will tel the browser that the dark stylesheet should be served up first, and will still allow your visitors to choose the lighter style if they want to.

IE isn't completely switching background colors when you click on the color icons. Only part of the page converts from black to white or vice versa. If you minimize the browser and bring it back up, then the colors update fine. Please try viewing my site in IE and change the background from white/black. Do I need to change the code so that these style changes are compatible with IE? Thanks! BTW, I don't have this problem in Firefox or Safari.

I'm having a problem with the back button... When I press it, it always go to the image #150 of my database. I checked the code and it seems to be OK and made a search and I didn't find a problem like this in the forum

IMAGE_ID : Works fine
IMAGE_NEXT_ID : Works fine
IMAGE_PREVIOUS_ID : It always gives 150

Any idea? Take a look at: http://www.canelson.com.ar

PS: The home.php is OK, my index.php is a random image generator, and home.php is the "original" index.php

Thank you in advance, and sorry for my english, is not my native language.

austriaka

12-20-2007, 07:13 AM

Hm, you did some funny changes there ;-)
Is this Pixelpost v1.7 and you changed the order of image display?

image #150 seems to be the last image in row (the oldest). But if I open home.php without "showimage" it jumps to #150 but index.php is supposed to open the newest (latest) blog entry.
Also in archive the #150 is the first one at the upper left corner. It seems impossible to me to find the newest photo (#480), I have to scroll down the archive page to find it.

Would it be possible to get this thread closed? This seems to have become the default support thread for anyone using the delicious theme, even though most of the issues discussed are not specific to the template. Among the problems it creates:

Those posting their problems here are less likely to find the answers they're looking for.
Those of us who are willing to help, but aren't using the template, are less likely to see the problem posted.
And those who might have the same problem aren't going to wade through 200+ posts in a thread about a template they aren't using to find the two posts about their problem.

knel

12-20-2007, 08:56 PM

This is Pixelpost 1.6 with Delicious 0.21

> Image #150 is the first image of my database (I uploaded 149 files before, but I delete them and I started all over again, so this is my first image)

HOME.PHP is the original INDEX.PHP from Pixlelpost
INDEX.PHP is a random image generator, so I did a Find and Replace in all my files replacing INDEX.PHP for HOME.PHP.
And I changed the ASC sort for DESC (or viceversa, I don't remember now)

Is hard to find the latest photo because I don't care about that, I just have albums and anyone can see any photo, it's not important if its new or old.

Thanks for your help!! Any idea?

sorry, we do not really provide support for hacked Pixelpost code since this is almost impossible for us. It seems that you forgot a replacement somewhere so the mysql query returns the last entry when using the previous link.

I would strongly suggest to update Pixelpost to 1.7 (which will be published as official version in the next days) where you can set the image display order in Admin options.
Write an addon using the new front workspace "frontpage_init" to create a random image id and put it into $_GET['showimage'].
Then the whole Pixelpost installation should work as expected whithout hacking any core files.

Hi,

I am new to pixelpost and have set it up just now. I love the Delicious template and would love to use it as my template but I can't seem to get it to work properly.

My site is: www.michaelho.co.uk

The 2 standard templates which come with pixelpost works fine but when I try to install the custom templates all I get is a white background, the photo and text in Time New Roman font I think it is.

What I did was to put the delicious folder into the templates folder of pixelpost. Log into pixelpost admin and change the template to delicious.

Do I need to do or add anything else to make it work?

Any help will be greatly appreciated,

Michael.

Hi- I just started modifying this template in Pixelpost 1.7, and there are a few things I haven't figured out yet-

Is there any way to make the information displayed by the 'details' link into its own, static box below the photos? I like the style of the details display and everything it includes (comments, etc.), but I'd prefer if it displayed permanently below each photo instead sliding down over them. In the mean time while I figure this out, I've put the details display from the 'simple' template below the photos, although I haven't been able to center it on the page so it appears very uneven for portrait-shaped photos. (It currently aligns with wherever the left side of each photo starts.)

Is there any sort of code in Delicious that dictates the number of thumbnails displayed on each row of the Archives page? I've edited this in pixelpost (where it asks how many thumbnails to have in each row, I've asked for six) but only five show up in Delicious, so I thought there might be something in the code that I have to change as well. In addition, where is the code to change the number of thumbnails displayed next to each image on the main page? Currently it sometimes shows six, sometimes seven, so I thought it might be related to the height of an image (?) but I'd like to keep it to a constant 5 and I can't figure out how to do that.

What do I need to do to remove the photo transition effects? (When going from one photo to the next, it 'fades' in, and I don't want that.) I deleted the little clock image that appears when loading new photos, but I can't find the code to delete the fade effect that accompanies it.

Lastly, this is just a technical question in general- On my 'about' page, I have a two-column display, and the right-hand column starts lower down on the page, leaving a gap. I have no idea why this is happening. I had a two-column display when using the 'simple' template and it didn't do this. Modifying it in Dreamweaver doesn't change anything; I can't find a reason for it in the code but it won't let me start the text at the top of the page like the left-hand column. (I've also tried copying the left column to the right, and as soon as I change the text in it, it jumps down to that same mid-page starting point.)

There are still some tweaks I'm working on, but those are the main issues that just stumped me. Sorry I'm asking so many questions, but I read through this thread and couldn't find any of this addressed. Any ideas?

Here is my site-in-progress:

It is "normal" that there are often time, delicious or simplicious template bug? So they are normal and after that the template online become like a html page... if you see what I mean..!

When you visit the archive bit and change to a different category it doesn't display in the category. It only seems to use it's built-in numerical sequence. How can I keep it in the category 'cos if if it's not possible, there's no point having categories.

Or am I doing something wrong?

All:

Good evening. I am using PP v 1.7 and the latest version of the excellent Delicious template. (Thanks, Jay Soto!) My problem is that the header I use--my name and the name of my website--is getting cut off in the View Image page. (Anomalously, the header appears fine on the About and Archive pages.)

I am using the Random Image addon, but the problem existed before that.

My page can be viewed at www.daedalusrose.com.

If anyone can help this n00b out, Id greatly appreciate it.

Cheers,

Scott

Hi all

I have tried everything. Updating the files. Reading this entire thread twice. I cannot figure out how to do this?

When I click 'details' it only shows the description of the picture. You have to click on 'comment' to show the comments and the fields to make a comment in.

I want it to show both the description and comments on the same page, like the demo does.

See my website to see what i mean: FrozenPanda.com (http://frozenpanda.com)

Can anyone give me an explanation on how to change this?

Thank you

Daniel Nielsen, Denmark

Did you use the download link at the top of the page, or the one under "Other Versions" near the bottom? Use the link at the top of the page for the latest version.

@ dakwegmo+

Thank you very much.

I generally think that the download of templates is a bit confusing when there is 2 download links on the same page. Maybe someone should consider next time updating pixelpost.org? (+ a better overview of versions).... maybe the link should just state which version of the template you are downloading and show all the different versions?

Just a couple of thoughts!

I seem to be having the same issue as ScottMcGrath. In FF the page renders perfectly, however in IE The gallery name is half cut off as the whole page is left aligned.

I have not changed anything in the template and this only started happening a few weeks ago.

I upgraded to PP 1.7.1 and recently installed the new template version, however neither of these things fixed the issue.

When I switch to a totally different template, the issue goes away, but I like the template and want to continue using it.

would love some help.
Thanks

I have some problems with feeds and links and I wish someone can help me.

First, I'm trying to use feedburner as my feed manager. I configured my blog options to accept it (admin, options, RSS/ATOM FEED SETTINGS ... external, rss, http://feeds.feedburner.com/PorUmClick). If I ask to see the page source the <RSS_AUTODETECT_LINK> variable returns me <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="Por Um Click - RSS Feed" href="http://ljcbraga.10gbfreehost.com/index.php?x=rss" />, which is the actual link, not the external one.

So I think I must edit the href line that calls my rss feed and put the external link there. Is it? If so, I don't need the <rss_autodetec_link> variable anymore?

The other problem is that I want to use outbrain's rating for my photos and I want to put the code near the EXIF data (Comments and details). The code Outbrain gave me ask for the permalink.

<script language='JavaScript'>
var OutbrainPermaLink='DROP_PERMALINK_HERE';
var OB_demoMode = false;
var OB_langJS ='http://widgets.outbrain.com/lang_en.js';
if ( typeof(OB_Script)!='undefined' )
OutbrainStart();
else {
var OB_Script = true;
var str = '<script src="http://widgets.outbrain.com/OutbrainRater.js" type="text/javascript"><\/script>';
document.write(str);
}
</script>

As each photo has it's permalink what should i put in this place?

Thank you.
