Gallery, a Thematic Child Theme

@Joseph Wills did you resolve your problem, if so how? I am getting a similar warning

Fantastic theme! However, I am running into these errors on pages when clicking a gallery thumbnail:

Warning: file_get_contents() [function.file-get-contents]: URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration in /home/content/87/4854187/html/wp/wp-content/themes/gallery/functions.php on line 131

and also this error:

Warning: file_get_contents(http://tinyurl.com/api-create.php?url=http%3A%2F%2...) [function.file-get-contents]: failed to open stream: no suitable wrapper could be found in /home/content/87/4854187/html/wp/wp-content/themes/gallery/functions.php on line 131

These may be found in previous posts but I couldnt see them. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

so nice theme! – but how do you get the text-pop up when moving the mouse over the pictures, like this( http://s215.photobucket.com/albums/cc120/BuddiMovi... )

so fresh feature! many thanks.

joseph, "server configuration" would suggest its an issue for your hosting company.

Warning: file_get_contents() [function.file-get-contents]: URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration

why im getting this error... please help me to solve this error to set up this wonderful artowork and perfect piece of code on mywebsite. thanks and regards

Great site, how do I subscribe?

update: line 36 of functions.php has number of categories to display

nice theme
i'm using it now

thanks

Just checking if anyone has figured out how to display more than 7 menu items?

Wondering what would be the best way to bypass the wordpress post functions of this theme and have the thumbnails open the full size image in lightbox. ive not been able to get a answer on the thematic forums wondering if you can tell me what Id need to do in order to achieve that? Thanks

I fixed the allow_url_fopen error, but now I see that video posts doesnt have the "designer, url" fields, how can I make them visible

Everything seems fine, except when I try to go to any pages an allow_url_fopen error appears because my host has disabled it.. Can you please use CURL instead?

Why is it when use the video feature you lose the menu that goes to the right of every post (I.E. Designed by, URL, Bookmark this, Tweet This)

Yeah its all good I just wanted to let you know so you could avoid support issues over a such a simple thing. Just trying to help more than be a finger pointer. Anyways... awesome design.

can anybody help with this? it's driving me crazy. probably something simple, but i'm a newbie...(btw, i’m using the latest version 1.2.1):

when i use sub-categories, for some unknown reason the drop down menu in the nav shows up for a split second in between pages. meaning, if i click on a thumbnail to go to a post, the drop down menu “drops down” for a second in between EVERY page change…can’t seem to get rid of it. you can see what i’m talking bout here:

http://www.sitev2.blairshapiro.com

Ha it got me too... my post should say
...the code reads ? bloginfo('url'); ? which in my case...

You may try just doing a find/replace on <? replaced with<?php

Simon - just to be clear the problem I'm having is because my server config has php short tags set to off and on line 35 of the functions.php the code reads which in my case makes the home link resolve to http://mysite.sbx/%3C?%20bloginfo(%27url%27);%20?%3E
Generally using php short tags is not recommended on distributed software since activating php short tags is an option not a requirement of the php.ini.

@ehmr, must remember about code stripping.
Again, my code was "<a href="">Home"

and changed it to "<a href="">Home"

@ehmr, I checked out the function.php and found that i had <a href="">Home.

Although my home link works, it should be <a href="">Home

Chris- great work on the theme - heads up though gallery v1.2.1 functions.php line 35 has a short php open tag on bloginfo('url') breaking the home link for me.

chris, thanks for this amazing theme.

everything works great except for these two annoying problems. wonder if you or someone can help, probably both simple fixes (and yes, i'm sing the latest version 1.2.1):

1) when i use sub-categories, for some unknown reason the drop down menu in the nav shows up for a split second in between pages. meaning, if i click on a thumbnail to go to a post, the drop down menu "drops down" for a second in between EVERY page change...can't seem to get rid of it. you can see what i'm talking bout here: http://www.sitev2.blairshapiro.com

2) when i use .htaccess to force my host into using php5 so i can use the simple video embedder i get the following error on post pages:

Warning: file_get_contents() [function.file-get-contents]: URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration in themes/gallery/functions.php on line 131

Warning: file_get_contents(http://tinyurl.com/create.php?url=’mypermali...;) [function.file-get-contents]: failed to open stream: no suitable wrapper could be found in themes/gallery/functions.php on line 131

any help on these would be appreciated.

thanks!

Hi chris, I love gallery!
two questions:
1. how do I change the order of the photos on the index page. (either descending or random order)
2. how can I add more pictures to the page you get once an image is clicked on the index page. THANKS!

@Hans, Which version are you using?
I suspect, that if you read a few of the previous posts, you might get a solution.

IMPORTANT: Upgrading from earlier versions of Gallery requires removal of /gallery/ theme folder due to removal of page templates in prior versions of Gallery.
IMPORTANT: Gallery 1.2 only works with Thematic 0.9.5. Make sure to download and upgrade to Thematic 0.9.5 first.

Take a look at both of these:

and

Have fun, and ask questions.

Hey! extremely nice theme! but when i choose it in the wordpress design option, it says:

''Call to undefined function wp_page_menu() in /hsphere/local/home/buddi/buddi.dk/blog/wp-content/themes/thematic/library/extensions/header-extensions.php on line 395''

someone clever out there, who know how to make it work?

thanks so much!

mhm, above is the SPAM....I would recommend WP Spam-Free :)

@Chris, My bad, I posted on the new gallery-1-2-released/ did not see there were two threads.

@Simon, what posts are you referring to? On ThemeForest?

Not sure, what is happening, but I submitted several posts yesterday offering some tweaks and advise on my experiences using Gallery and Thematic, but they have all dropped of the list.
Anyway, I have started a tutorial for installation, adding images and will also roll out modifying colours, images etc, plus adding in additional plugins.

Take a look at http://welcome.to/supergallery and checked out the Design pages.

feedback most welcome.

Firstly I want to say thank you to you Chris, this theme is superb I am using it on a website dedicated to Twitter backgrounds, apps etc. I have placed a link on the bottom of the site with a special thanks note. Fantastic work Chris, mind if I add your twitter profile to my site? If anyone else is interested just

How come my pictures won't show? What am i doing wrong?

Most issues mentioned in the comments can be resolved by upgrading to the Gallery Pro theme.

Ya..integrating a blog into this theme would be great, something which transparent to this design.

I know this question has been asked on numerous occasions but is there any way to incorporate a blog into the theme? otherwise I might have to resort adding a second theme to my site.

can anybody tell me abt this problem
1. dropdown menu appears in only one category bt when I create another category and add subcategories in that it breaks down ..dropdown does not work and all the links open..

dropdown is fine with one category bt not in 2nd category.. plz help me rectify this issue

hi michelle.

The number of boxes in a row depends on it's dimensions. So if you have you page width of 940, divide it by the number of boxes you want to have per row. consider pixels between boxes and the 1px of the padding. If you have any other question please e mail me ole_00@hotmail.com

Hi everyone,
Can someone please show me how I can edit the number of boxes in a row? Right now I have 7 across the first row. The second row has 3 across and the rest goes to the next page. I prefer to have 4 rows and 7 boxes per row. Can someone please help me out?

Thanks!

how can I rectify this..

First off, Chris you are wonderful to create and offer this theme for free, thank you !

I've sailed the seven seas and hiked the seven wonders of the world seeking a theme for my portfolio. The stars and the moon aligned a few nights ago and I found your 'gallery' theme. This will be my 3rd attempt at working with WP and your theme and its content is by far the most intuitive for us n00bs.

I have 2 questions:

1) I want my thumbnails to be 3 across and the same width/length as is found at the mixcss.com site.

I read that I need to make changes to the 125x125's at function.php and stylesheet.css, but damned if it just ain't workin' !?

2) When in 'full image' mode, at the lower right, where it has the <>'s, I'm confused as to how the order is determined ? Where do I gain more control of this ?

This is my first time working with posts and categories. In the past I pretty much brute forced my themes into CMS look and feel.

Can you or anyone please help ?

Thanks,
Catherine

Hei this theme is awesome but I have a little problem with the menu, I can't use 2 dropdown categories, on of the dropdowns works and the other not.
