I'm not sure if this is a bug or the correct functionality but some gallery navigation links appear in the drupal block and others appear in the gallery sidebar. See attached screen shots.

I've searched the forum and didn't see this listed.

I'm using the official 4.7 release of drupal, 2.1.1 release of gallery and cvs gallery module as of tonight. 5/5

This is a known issue of Gallery 2.0 and 2.1. The admin pages will not allow turning off of the sidebar and getting the data to include in the Drupal sidebar. There is a feature request for this feature with Gallery2 (somewhere in the G2 site). Unfortunately there is nothing that can be done by gallery.module to fix this.

Thank you, this explains a lot. If this is the case, is it possible to turn on the sidebar for all gallery navigation? I've removed the gallery navigation block but the gallery sidebar does not appear.

I basically want all gallery navigation to look consistent and since it cannnot all be in the drupal block I want to just use the sidebar instead.

This functionality is not available at present. Most people seem to want the navigation in the Drupal sidebar and are hoping for a change for admin pages to allow this. However, I may add this function as an option.

Yes, I too would rather have the drupal block navigation as opposed to the gallery sidebar but I'd take either as long as it is consistent and since, at this time, it is not possible to put all the navigation into the drupal block I was going to try to hack the module.
Unfortunately, my php is very limited but I'll try anyway.

Thank you.

You might be able to just turn off the drupal sidebar items when in the admin page. The question I have is how many site admins are going to be on your site. If it's just you then only you have to look at this odd behavior. The other thing you might do is create a drupal block with all the items in the sidebar then in your g2 theme make your template not display the sidebar in the admin.tpl file. This would make standalone g2 not work in site admin so be careful about that.

Well, I'm the only "admin" but all my users are able to create their own personal galleries. Unfortunately, even tasks such as adding albums and items causes this behavior.

I'll try creating the new block. Thanks for the tip.
