Photo Gallery Forums

Hi,
I have installed your X2 gallery (Version imagevuex2_20081223), basic functionality works perfectly fine including the admin area with Firefox V2.0.0.17.
No matter what I try, I cannot get a single one of the templates of your page working on my server (the themes that are provided in the default gallery don't nearly look as good as the sample galleries of your templates)

Guess I did something generally wrong? Just a few questions to get some hints on solving the problem:
- In your instruction it says: "If you open your index.php or slideshow.php, you will see that on line 12 it says by default: $config = 'config.ini'; ..."
Not in the default gallery. A file slideshow.php does not exist, either...
- where exactly am I supposed to copy these 2 files from the carbon folder to replace the existing ones? Into the root folder or the imagevue folder?
- I tried to follow your instructions a few times with various results: nothing happened at all or the gallery was corrupt (the page was loading but nothing happened, admin login didn't work anymore or failure messages came up). --> any suggestions on avoiding typical mistakes?
- finally: on your template page it says: "Templates are provided along with the latest release"...Nope, no templates included! Only themes...

Apart from that I have to express my deepest respect and congratulations on the great job you guys have done here!!!

Hmm... i admit there are some bugs but gallery just can't be that broken out of the box. Could you provide URL? Have to witness what you're taking about.

Url is: www.dreamtime-images.de Right now only ... of time...

Tried to play around a bit:
1) If I replace the index.php file and add the slideshow.php in the start folder I get the following failure message and the gallery does not load (admin area seems to be working):

Warning: include(include/version.inc.php) [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/www/web423/html/index.php on line 7

Warning: include() [function.include]: Failed opening 'include/version.inc.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/local/php5/lib/php:/home/www/confixx/html:/home/www/confixx/html/include') in /home/www/web423/html/index.php on line 7

2) If I replace the index.php file and add the slideshow.php in the imageview folder the gallery seems to be working but while trying to get in the admin area, I get the following failure message:

Warning: include(include/version.inc.php) [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/www/web423/html/imagevue/index.php on line 7

Maybe this help to identify the cause...

I can't find any link to the X2 gallery. Unless you changed any of the code, it should be simple to run the different themes.

Failed to open file indicates that something isnt uploaded correctly, or maybe was broken before uploading, when unpacking .zip

anyone manage to install the templates into X2?

Or the templates meant for the old V1 only?

Yes, all THEMES are already provided in the main Imagevue X2 download, in the imagevue/themes/ folder. The "Templates" section on our site is only for Imagevue V1 ...

Sorry for any confusion - We are currently rebuilding our website to improve the support for the new Imagevue X2 gallery.
