I configured all following the instructions, maybe I'm missing something.

I created a file system folder, named albums, under default\files\albums of my site. Inside this I put many folders, each represents a gallery (e.g. 2008_Federica).
I configured in admin settings "Path to the main gallery folder" putting albums.

Now, if I use BG filters, for instance [bg|2008_Federica|10|100], in a page content, it works like a charm, showing up the correct gallery.
Instead, if I try to view the default page gallery (using the default block or the brilliant_gallery page) I can't see the subfolders (galleries), I only see files not organized in subfolders. I dont think this is the expeted behaviour, is this?

What am I missing?

Any help will be very appreciated.

Thank you

Federica

I'm seeing the same thing on a fresh install of 6.3 - it seems to be related to the filename and directory name and the brilliant_gallery page not liking spaces and/or underscores.

I took my existing gallery directory, which works fine embedded but isn't visible at brilliant_gallery, which was named ABC_gallery with files in it with spaces, such as "ABC Gallery Picture 1.JPG", and I copied the same pic to a new directory named "test" with a filename of "test1.jpg" and the picture immediately was visible.

I haven't looked at the source but it looks like the brilliant_gallery page and the block must have different filename restrictions from the embedded galleries.

I can confirm this bug. Any folder which has underscores in name won't function properly. Although it gets displayed in admin it is not functioning in [bg] replacement.

Uh oh. I got solution for my problem. Maybe your is different, but maybe you have the same problem. My problem was with input types. Which was using Texy! module before image gallery filter (this is necessary because of performance). And therefore the symbol _ gets replaced with <sub> tag (texy syntax). So if you are having the same problems use Texy tag for not replacing undescores around the bg tag!

There were 2 different issues here.

1) dedina could not see images in nested folders simply because BG displays only images in the given folder. Showing several galleries on a page can be solved by adding several [bg|...] tags, or using views. This is noted in common issues at http://drupal.org/project/brilliant_gallery

2) The underscore problem was a matter of conflict with another module's filter that replaced underscores. Too specific to solve in a generic way. Easy to solve indivitually, as picca notes (thanks!)
