Deep Folder thumbnails donot function on v2.1.0

26 May 2009, 16:06

Deep Folder thumbnails donot function on v2.1.0, it used to be fine on last version.

This means that, photo thumbnails only works on two-level folders, like "content\folder\".

If it is three-level folders, like "content\folder\folder1", the thumbnails won't show, however the "folder1" it self did shows!

I've double checked your online demo, none of them inclulds pictures.

Could you please let me know how to slove this problem?

Thanks.

Not quite sure what you mean "deep folder thumbnails". Here is one of our deepest folders in the demo gallery, with thumbnails:

May be it should be called "folder deep".

Now I've found the problem myself. For my server (maybe for all the servers):

If the the folder is a "3-level-deep", like "content\test\test2\", the folderdata.xml can not write in, it shows 0 pics. I have to menully type in fileCount="4" title="" previewimage="DSC00559.JPG" in xml-

If the the folder is a "2-level-deep", like "content\test\", everything goes fine.

This has nothing to do with any new release. If your server has problems creating thumbnails or updating XML for some new folders you have created, it is a server issue related to permissions. There is no difference in how imagevue differentiates folder depth - A folder is a folder.

Perhaps you can provide link and log in to your admin, and tell me which folder you are referring to? Something to do with permissions or some restriction on your server.

this is really strange!

1, for "3-level-deep" folders, all the function are fine to work, except, write XML: folder fileCount="0".

Now, my problem is more clear, XML file does been write. I have checked that, "description", "title", "previewimage" they are all fine to write. Also creating thumbnails à­s OK, I can edite every pic from admin page. BUT, from XML file, only "fileCount" always keep "0" noever how many pics I upload.

2, all the "2-level-deep" folders are fine to work.
3, the early version are fine to work on all kinds of functions.

I can not diagnose this unless you provide a link to your gallery. Sounds like permissions issue to me. Your server may have safe_mode enabled, and/or you may be mixing FTP created folders with admin created folders.
