Image galleries

make sure to remember to set up your permissions under "access control" to allow your user to create and edit images.

if image.module is enabled correctly, you should see the ability to create content > image, and also should see "Image Galleries" under your "admin > categories" section. you can add terms there for each of your galleries.

then, just go to create content, create an image, and make sure to pull down the galleries menu in the options at the top of the node creation form and get that image into one of the gallery terms. then clicking on yoururl.org/image should show a list of all your galleries, with icons of the first image in them, and a list of how many contents are in each.

:) good luck.... trust me, it's much easier being a newbie with this new 4.6.0 image.module than some previous ones! (i personally was pulling my hair out a year ago trying to work out the ImageMagick problems. ;) cheers to the coders who included the GDK toolkit with this version.

I am having the same problem. I cannot put images into galleries. The image upload works fine, the thumbnail creation too, but the special image galery taxonomy does not show up in the image node create or edit screen. I spent a day trying to figure out how the image nodes are coded into the database. Way over my head. The best I can tell is that there is some comibination of Drupal settings that causes the image node taxonomy to not appear where it should. I can't figure out what it is though. I got the image module to work correctly on only one site; on the others that I tried to install it I got this same error.

The best advice I have been able to find in the image gallery bug report page was to reinstall it and cross your fingers. I tried that and it did not work.

I've seen posts about this and no resolution.
does anyone know how to fix the problem of getting an image into a gallery?
http://www.shreemaa.org/drupal/image
I have set up 2 galleries.
I want to post thumbnail photos into each but when I 'create content|image', there's no dropdown to select the gallery.

the taxonomy module is enabled and working.
I don't see 'image galleries' in categories. is it supposed to be there?

any ideas appreciated.

I have the same exact problem as y'all

http://drupal.org/node/43104

has anyone got anywhere with this? I am having the same problems? My taxonomy and image galleries are out of sync. And i tried deleting the mentioned rows from the DB, and still same problem. Posted this issue http://drupal.org/node/68921 about it. but was wondering whether any users had progressed...

Right now, when you go to www.site.com/image, it shows all my terms for the Image Gallery category but only the most current image per each term. Does anyone know how to make it so all images appear on the default image page?
I saw this code for the latest image:

l(image_display($gallery->latest, 'thumbnail'), 'image/tid/'.$gallery->tid, array(), NULL, NULL, FALSE, TRUE)

also, does anyone know how to include a title attribute in the anchor tag for the terms of the Image Gallery category?
I think it is contained in this line:

l($gallery->name, 'image/tid/'.$gallery->tid)
or
l(image_display($gallery->latest, 'thumbnail'), 'image/tid/'.$gallery->tid, array(), NULL, NULL, FALSE, TRUE) . check_markup($gallery->description)
thanks

Here's the answer. I executed this php code by creating a new page, pasting it in, picking my PHP format, and previewing. I stole this code right out of the bottom end of the image gallery module. I have no idea why it's not firing on its own:

<?
$vocabulary = array('name' => t('Image Galleries'), 'multiple' => '0', 'required' => '0', 'hierarchy' => '1', 'relations' => '0', 'module' => 'image_gallery', 'nodes' => array('image' => 1));
taxonomy_save_vocabulary($vocabulary);
$vid = $vocabulary['vid'];
variable_set('image_gallery_nav_vocabulary', $vid);
print $vid;
?>

Note that it looks for a vocabulary with a module specified, which is why I didn't just create a vocabulary and set a variable "image_gallery_nav_vocabulary" to the vid of the appropriate vocabulary. I'd still have had to tweak it, AFAIK. You can see why I did what I did by looking at the last function in image_gallery.module.

So all you have to do is remove any current vocabulary called "Image Galleries" and go through the above. I don't know if this works with categories module enabled, but I don't see why it wouldn't since this is going through the appropriate functions. Assuming they work right in the taxonomy emulation module, the functions ought to do the job. That might not be a safe assumption, though; a lot of stuff in category.module is pretty broken, and I'm pretty sure that's how I broke this part of my site to begin with. I've since ditched category.module and gone back to books and taxonomies.

I had the same issue and this fixed it. I know I was playing with acidfree and added and removed it and re-added the image module. I don't know if that somehow broke it. But this fixed it.

One word of caution. It does remove those galleries listed, or at least it did in my case. You'll need to re-add your galleries and images, which for me was not a big deal.

Thanks!

I use the Gallery Module which requires the installation of a great third party application. Also, Acid free makes a very nice Drupal integrated gallery.

I'm having the same trouble. However, on another instance of drupal (4.7.x) I'm running on bluehost, no problem. I'm wondering if the php versions are different enough to cause trouble. Here's the specs for the bluehost site where it's working: PHP version 4.4.4, MySQL version 4.1.21-standard-log, Linux Kernel version 2.6.19-1_3.BHsmp, Apache version 1.3.37 (Unix).

Also, anyone know if there are other special dependencies that aren't included with the image mod?
