I'm not able to run the module bug free.
The problem is that there is no image in the modules table.
What I have tried:
- with both lightbox and thickbox: no image
- different path's to gallery folder: If I have the wrong folder I will get an information on the site. If I have the right folder, the border/ background of the table appears (without images).
- different image types jpg, png: nothing
- different user: admin, ... with access
- view in node .../brillant_gallery and blocks: in both I see the modules background/ border

please help me, I'm very interested in this feature
thanx

Could you please provide installation documentation? I am getting the same error.

Perhaps installation instructions? I cannot get the module to work correctly. I think it has something to do with image.php not being able to generate the thumbnails correctly. The generated href's come out fine and thickbox works fine.

I have come across the same problem on my hosted server, but it works fine on my localhost server. On the hosted server, I have installed the module in a multisite setup that is running in a subfolder. Hence, the file structure is:

root
-- site1/
-- site1/files/album
-- site1/sites/site1.mydomain.com/modules/brilliant_gallery
-- site1/.... other files for Drupal install in site1
-- files
-- includes
-- ...etc other files for Drupal install in main domain

It has something to do with the multisite setup. When I moved the module into the sites/all/modules folder, everything worked. Make sure you move both Thickbox and Brilliant_Gallery into the sites/all/modules folder.

@incrn8

thanx for this hint, but I have no multisite ... other ideas welcome :-)

Hmm, alright then. But have you installed the two modules into the sites/all/modules folder? Or did you put them into the /modules folder? I noticed some code in the module that specifically uses the sites/all/modules folder.

after writing comment #5 I realised your hint in my single site system (copied the modules to /sites/all/...; deleted in ../default a.s.o.). But the problem is still existent. Any debug hints/ instructions for newbie in this matter (devel-module, firebug ...) welcome.

Brilliant Gallery HOWTO Express.

I installed (Copied) on a sites/all/modules both modules (brilliant gallery and Thickbox) and I configured the "Path to the gallery folder: " field without the end slash "/"
example:

Copy images on /files/catalog folder

Configure Brilliant gallery Module with field
Path to the gallery folder: catalog

url: http://www.mysite.com/?q=brilliant_gallery

regards.

Try using the new version from http://drupal.org/node/171445/release

There are many bug fixes and improvements. It is now also possible to add gallery into any node, using a special tag.

Detail instructions are at http://quidne.vacilando.org/bg

Tomas,

The problem with images not showing up is that you are using a hard-coded path to your module. If people, like me, put the module in another folder - like on a multisite setup - no images appear. The solution (and the correct Drupal way for getting a path to the module) is to use drupal_get_path('module', 'brilliant_gallery').

I have attached a patch to fix that issue in the latest v2.1 release of your module. I also took the liberty of cleaning up the img tag a bit:

  • I moved the border declaration into the style, as border is not allowed in img tags for xhtml
  • I closed the img statement with a forward slash (e.g. />) for xhtml compliance

By the way, the multiple gallery option is awesome!
