i posted a question in the ssp forum belonging to external navigation and the problem that in ssp it is not possible to switch to the next album using the next button by default. In a reply of my question i got an action script which would resolve this problem.

BUT this code would only work if the album ids were numerical and in order.
I assume that in this module the album_Id = taxonomy_term_Id.
So here is my question: Is it possible to let the albums of each gallery appear as numbers starting by 1?

The other problem is, that i want the ssp to be aligned left. I changed the code directly in the module (line 364 and line 370) from align="middle" to align="left". But nothing happens. When i check the code in the browser, there is always align="middle".

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanx a lot.

You mean instead of image gallery term names as album names numbers incremented by one?

Try positioning the div tag the object embedding sits in. Watch out: if you define a different aspect ratio for the slideshow SWF than the aspect ratio of the slideshow itself, you will see the slideshow centered within the SWF.

No, not instead. I want the album name to be shown in the ssp. But as i mentioned before, the actionscript to switch to the next album, when the last image is reached, would only work, if the album ids were numerical and in order. So it would be great, if the numerical id would be a kind of an alias of the default album id, starting by 1. (is this clear?) Have you read my thread in the ssp forum?

OK. Will check this later.

Thank you, Alex

Got you. I've got a more basic problem with the latest versions of slideshowpro.module + slideshowpro - I don't see any albums at all, if i don't filter by albums. If I filter by album, I naturally only see the album I have selected in the slideshowpro album page. The views filter doesn't let me select than one album.

Do you see more than one album on your slideshowpro album page?

And in regards to the incremental numbering of albums: I can't answer you that off the bat. As it stands now albums don't have any id whatsoever (only the name).

* I am not sure where such an id would have to go on the XML description of the slideshow.
* It might be a little tricky to get an incremental numbering.

Either way, it requires a little digging (in slideshowpro docs and views module) - and I am tight on time at the moment. It would be great if another developer could step up here and give this issue a look.

I just fixed the issue that the module did not show albums if some are available. Adding an incremental id turned out to be easy. Check out the latest version and see wether it does the job for you.

Yes, I do. In my case I was filtering by album because i use several galleries.

Got a solution in the ssp Forum and it works great for me.

Again, tis module is a great work. From now on, it is finally possible to add tons of images to a drupal-driven site - and in one node, very good if you are using tabbed content.

So gaia,

is incremental numbering of albums still necessary to get the functionality you need?

No, the actionscript posted in the ssp Forum works with the older version of your module. sorry to caused trouble.

Hi Alex,

i have the same problem now. Strange, i finished just a project now using the module and everything works perfect. Now i´d like to use ssp for a the next project and all of a sudden the views filter doesn't let me select more than one album. all settings are exacty the same like in the first project. i downloaded the newest version of the module but still can´t get it to work. I am using ssp 1.6.3 and drupal 5.3. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you
gaia

do you use a different version of the views module?

gaia commented

No, the views version is 5.x-1.6

gaia, sorry for late response.

I understand now - you could select more than one album in the previous version, and now you can only select 1 album, right?

There is a rough spot in the views integration. On my test sites, the option to choose more than one Album has never existed. I opened an issue for this here: http://drupal.org/node/196317 - I hope you don't mind if I close this thread in order to keep thinkgs apart. Please follow up on the new issue.

Thank you.
