Lightbulb Page_By_Page Archive Problems(Urgent!!!)

Hello,

When I click "Browse" button at index page, it gets me into the archive page, But I have massive pictures uploaded, in this archive page, all thumbnails are displayed in ONLY ONE page, it is very awkward for me and the visitors to load this page. How can I divide all these pictures I have uploaded into different pages, Actually I only want to display 16 thumbnails in one page, 4 columns, 4 rows, I tried to use the ADDON Page-By-Page-Archive for category and month (paged_archive - version 1.7) - It doesn't work.

Can anyone help me get this resolved?

Thanks. My page is http://www.jasonview.com/index.php?x=browse

Hi

Firstly, you will need to give more details about why the Page-By-Page Addon isn't working for you. How are you using tags and, I know it's obvious, but have you turned the Addon on?

Secondly, a different approach might be to use the Album View addon. Using this, you could condense the photos to a handful of albums rather than having a huge list of photos. I use album view in addition to an archive of all photos.

Hi Thanks for your prompt response.

1) I did activate the Page-By-Page Addon and update the digits to 16 in the blanks, then I clicked the "Update" Button, But nothing happened while I refreshed the archive page, all thumbnails were still displayed in one single page.

2) Where can I get Album View Addon? Is there any instruction in greater detail to implement this addon?

http://www.jasonview.com/index.php?x=browse will always show all photos - if you are using the paged archive addon you need to also put the page number argument in the url like this: http://www.jasonview.com/index.php?x=browse&pagenum=1

Thanks for all your help. After going thru the responses, I still want to use Page-By-Page-Archive for category and month (paged_archive - version 1.7).

Basically, I am not pretty familiar with the codes, can anyone help me in greater detail? I just turned on the Addon, and refresh the numbers, what else should I do? Add some codes to other pages? I don't have a clue.

Thanks a lot.

Here's the list of tags that can be used with the Page-by-Page Archive addon, along with an explanation of what each of them does and examples:

Dear dhdesign,

Actually I also has this problem...

I check your website http://www.kpimages.net/index.php?x=browse&&pagenum=1

And found below order details:

<h2>Archives</h2>
<div style="text-align: right; margin-right: 40px;"><!--<select name='browse' onchange='self.location.href=this.options[this.selectedIndex].value;'><option value=''>Select Category</option><option value='index.php?x=browse&amp;category=&amp;pagenu m=1'>All (259)</option><option value='index.php?x=browse&amp;category=1&amp;pagen um=1'>Amish (3)</option><option value='index.php?x=browse&amp;category=2&amp;pagen um=1'>Buildings (36)</option><option value='index.php?x=browse&amp;category=3&amp;pagen um=1'>Landscapes (63)</option><option value='index.php?x=browse&amp;category=4&amp;pagen um=1'>Nature (67)</option><option value='index.php?x=browse&amp;category=5&amp;pagen um=1'>Oldies (6)</option><option value='index.php?x=browse&amp;category=6&amp;pagen um=1'>Places (59)</option><option value='index.php?x=browse&amp;category=7&amp;pagen um=1'>Sunrises (23)</option><option value='index.php?x=browse&amp;category=8&amp;pagen um=1'>Sunsets (71)</option><option value='index.php?x=browse&amp;category=9&amp;pagen um=1'>Travel (7)</option><option value='index.php?x=browse&amp;category=10&amp;page num=1'>Wildlife (15)</option></select>--><br /></div>

You know your Archives template is what i need, could you please tell me how to set up? You use this <CATEGORY_LINKS_AS_LIST_PAGED> tag?

Hope can get your help soon...

Here's the code from my browse page:

Code:
<h2>Archives</h2>
<div style="text-align: right; margin-right: 40px;"><BROWSE_CATEGORIES_PAGED><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center; margin: 10px auto;">
<THUMBNAILS_WHOLE_PAGED>
<div id="archive-navigate"><THUMBNAILS_PAGES_LINKS></div>
<BROWSE_CATEGORIES_PAGED> will get you a dropdown box with all of your categories listed.

<THUMBNAILS_WHOLE_PAGED> gets you the paged thumbnails.

<THUMBNAILS_PAGES_LINKS> gets you the page numbers at the bottom of each page in the archive.

To get the proper link in your site navigation, you need to replace
Code:
<a href="<SITE_BROWSELINK>" title="Browse">Browse</a>
with
Code:
<a href="<SITE_BROWSELINK_PAGED>" title="Browse">
in the site navigation on each of the _template.html files in the theme you are using.

Hope this helps.
