Changing the style of the Gallery Nav arrow images in LRB Exhibition.

hello all,

I would like to change the shape and style of the Gallery Nav arrow images in LRB Exhibition. Can anyone point me in the direction of resources (tutorials, videos) to solve this problem?

thanks
 
Hi!

No question. Just wanted to say, I would be very happy if the above suggestions would be in a new version of LRB exhibtion.
And for me it would be very ok to buy a new version or to pay a bit extra to Sean for doing all this work.

1. a script to include automatic diversion to lower res image by detecting a mobile device with vertical format (may be a premium version :)
2. A full screen option - when you click on the pictures
3. Option to have home page cycle through different images every time - may be from first gallery.
4. the facebook like button
5 a more elegant way to put in a sidebar with the textpages (now my menu disappears when I put in a sidebar)

Thank you!

Dirk

Hi Scott, as you know, Chrome changed internally. Right now it looks like the only way to solve this bar Google fixing their bug is a complete rewrite. I have logged the bug with Google. I am working on a new full screen plugin. I should be able to transfer some of this code to showcase when all is done. I'm just in the busiest part of the year with little free time to address coding issues. I do have time put aside in Sept for this.

Both the like and plus buttons normally direct to your page, not to specific images. I can put in a paste box for the code-there can be guarantee that it won't break something though.

Hi Dirk,
1. I do intend making the galleries more responsive (which is the term used for what you describe).
2. Not in the remit for this gallery at all, I'm afraid. It's a bit like asking a public bus driver to drop your at your house.
3. I've done this on older versions of my site. The problem is it needs PHP which is not previewable in Lightroom. It needs to be on a server to be visible.
4. As with the previous poster, I can add a blank section to paste code, but there's no guarantee that it won't break something.
5. I really don't know what you mean with this Dirk.
Best,
Sean
 
Hi Sean,

Thank you for your quick reply!
Good to hear you are busy in this time of ecomical toughness.

Great you take this suggestions with you if you build a knew LRB exhibkition.
If 3 and 4 would work on the website it would be great.
I have no friends in Lightroom so nobody could like me if it was previewable.
With 5 I mean , it would be nice for me to have two pages one about and one blank (cv) where I can put more text then fit on the page.
So there would be a standard sidebar to scroll down without losing the menu. Like I have http://www.dirkkome.nl/blank.html .

Hope to hear from you end of september/ october!

Bye,

Dirk

Previewable means you can see it in Lightroom. You cannot view PHP files (a web coded file) in Lightroom, so you can't check if the images are showing at all, let alone the right ones. It simply doesn't allow it.

I do intend adding adding an autoscroll (overflow:auto;) into the text boxes. My bad, because I had intended to do this much sooner. I could add a No Image checkbox potentially too, so there's no background photo. I'll fix the scroll as soon as I get time, checkbox for a later version.
 
BTW Dirk,
if you add

Code:
.abouttext, .contacttext, .hometext, .blanktext { overflow:auto; }
to the end of lrb.css after exporting, you'll get the scrolling everywhere. Just need to get it into the code when I'm at the studio.
 
Hi Sean,

Thank you, I going to try this tomorrowmorning.

Just finished my second website. The first one is for my art work, the new one for clients.
It works good, exept for the phototitles.
With my first site ( www.dirkkome.nl) when you go with the mouse over a photo the title appears.
With the new one (www.dirkkomefotografie.nl ) there appears a black square.
Did I do something wrong or forgot to put a check somewhere?

Good weekend!
Dirk
 
Hi Dirk,
I've redone the caption code, so that solves the issue of anything additional showing. I've added a section in the footer to place your own code.

There's a blog post on changes here, but I've a few more things to do before it's ready to release. http://lightroom-blog.com/2013/10/17/ongoing-lrb-exhibition-work/
 
Using 1.43 LRB exhibtion:

I noticed a problem with the menu links, hover color was not working. After changes to lrb.css, hover color now works.
I moved the a:hover & a:active.

From W3schools.com :

When setting the style for several link states, there are some order rules:

  • a:hover MUST come after a:link and a:visited
  • a:active MUST come after a:hover

Hope this is of use,

Larry

Hi Larry, you may not be aware that it's Lightroom that generates the CSS (rather than the plugin), and it doesn't ever do it in order like as required for proper rendering of a:hover. So much for the cascading bit of cascading style sheets. That's why the generated CSS is littered with "!important"-trying to make sure it hasn't done too much damage.
Potentially one could create a different css on export, but it's a mammoth task. That said, the link ccss could possibly be put in a separate file, which I think is more feasible. I'll put that on the list for the next update.
 
lost my scrollbar

BTW Dirk,
if you add

Code:
.abouttext, .contacttext, .hometext, .blanktext { overflow:auto; }
to the end of lrb.css after exporting, you'll get the scrolling everywhere. Just need to get it into the code when I'm at the studio.

I uploaded new pictures to my website and now I am totaly lost where to put .blanktext { overflow:auto; } It is very stupid, tried all kind of places.
I think it was on the top of the page. Can somebody piont it out for me?

Many thanks,

Dirk

Hi Sean & Victoria,

I wanted to try the new LRB Exhibition 1.44. And now only the first gallery is working. What is the best to do? Can I turn it back to 1.40 or can I pay and registrate this version?

Hope to hear from you!

Dirk

The FAQ is pretty clear on this one Dirk, click the retrieve my serial button.
 
Sean thanks for your quick reply! I searched for the plugin manager in my computer, Lightroom and in the download file, but didn't found it. Where can I find it? Dirk

It's the first panel in the Plugin Manager when you add the unzipped download from Photographers Toolbox.
 
Hello Sean,
I'm using the LRB Portfolio plugin for LR5 to design a website. When I click gallery 2 or gallery 3 the about page appears and the external links disappear. I have the about page disabled, it should never appear at all.

Any help correcting this is appreciated. Thank you!

I've gone through the site and the external links are on all pages, and I'm not see an about page. Maybe you need to clear the cache? Did you have a version with an about page and no links at any stage? These may be cached, and that's what you're seeing.
