Lightroom 2.7- HTML Web Gallery

Hello all,
I've been using Web Gallery features to produce picture pages but I would like to incorporate them into my existing web pages (with or without a background. I'd like to continue to use Lightroom because of it's ease of use to allow me to create the web sized photos (in the two web optimized sizes), without the backgrounds such that that HTML code can be dropped onto another prebuilt page and updated easily, perhaps coding it in such a way as to allow input from Lightroom?.
Have you come across this problem? Is there a way that you've found to accomplish this?
Here's an example of what I've built so far:
http://a0700308.uscgaux.info/_images/flotilla38_2010_picturepages/index.html
Here's an example of an existing page that I'd like to be able to update my "PicturePages" web gallery onto.
http://a0700308.uscgaux.info/flotilla38_blankpage.htm
The whole concept is to do this and still allow the pictures to be updated from a Lightroom web gallery so they can be added/changed/deleted easily. Appreciate any help...
Henry

If you are able to save out the page that you want to include the gallery into as a .php file, then you can include the Lightroom gallery file in there using PHP Includes:
Doing it this way will allow you to easily publish your Lightroom gallery without being afraid to overwrite the old customized HTML page.

Bridge CS5 Renames Files in HTML Web Gallery

When creating an HTML Web Gallery (using ‘Lightroom’ template), Bridge CS5 renames the thumbs and large images to an arbitrary number. The caption reads as the original file name, but the actual image has a new name. This is problematic, as my clients will right-click selected images from my galleries to save and forward for approval, but the file name is not the same as the original.
As an example: VLNK0321.jpg is renamed as _4856316150.jpg. (In Preferences/Output, the "Convert multi-byte file names to Full ASCII" is unchecked.)
Is there any way to fix this little (for me--BIG) problem?

Solved!
This works for Windows. I imagine the Mac solution is similar. Props to William Zauscher for helping find an answer.
I take no responsibliity for any damage caused to your computer, Photoshop or Bridge...
In Windows, browse to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Bridge CS5 Extensions\Adobe Output Module\mediagallery\resources\scripts
In the file named "galleryCreator.jsxinc" replace the lines:
AOM.AmgGalleryCreator.createUniqueFileName = function(filePath, jpgFile, createMode)
    var alteredName;
    while (true)
         alteredName = "_";
        for (var i=0; i<10; i++)
             alteredName += Math.floor(Math.random() * 10);
         alteredName += ".jpg";
        var f = new File(filePath + alteredName);
        if (!f.exists)
            break;
     return alteredName;
...with the following:
AOM.AmgGalleryCreator.createUniqueFileName = function(filePath, jpgFile, createMode)
                var alteredName;
                while (true)
                                alteredName = "_";
                                alteredName += jpgFile += ".jpg";
                                var f = new File(filePath + alteredName);
                                if (!f.exists)
                                                break;
                return alteredName;
You can cut and paste the above. Just save a version of the original file somewhere in case of screwups...
Cheers!

LR HTML Web Gallery -- modified version with great features is available

For anyone using the default Lightroom HTML Web Gallery, one of our associates here has offered a modified version with some great added features.
John Beardsworth's site -- Lightroom Solutions - http://lightroomsolutions.com/ -- is a wonderful resource for LR tips, plug-ins, information, etc.
The default HTML gallery is fine, but I always found it lacked features. I mentioned this to Ian Lyons (http://www.computer-darkroom.com/) a couple of years ago, and he sent me a modified version with the ability to specify up to 100 rows by using sliders instead of the grid. When I tried John's modified version, it had some other good features. I thought.... what if the two modified versions could be combined? So, I shot John an email, and low and behold, he uploaded a new version of the gallery to his site. Thank you, Ian and John!
Here is the link:
http://lightroomsolutions.com/my-tweaked-built-in-html-gallery/
Here are the added features that I find most useful:
Number of rows (up to 100) and columns can be specified using sliders rather than the grid
Thumbnail images can be sized to your specification
Filename can be placed on each thumbnail, and you specify size of text
Clicking the large image advances to the next image rather than returning to the top of the thumbnail page (no need to use the 'next' link)
See the site for other added features. (If you already have John's version, the newer version has the same file name and went online April 17, 2013.)
PLEASE NOTE: John Beardsworth's HTML gallery is NOT supported by John or Adobe, and is offered "as-is."
I hope others will find this as useful and I have.
John

I've done a version of this where the large file links to the medium and it works no problem. code is based on tutorial code I've already written..
I'd need to see more code to see where the issue might be..
Here's what I have:
(I opted not to put the files in "content", also ignore margin-top, it's not relevent to this)

    destination="",
In medium.html

No way to change it, it's a "feature." (Not!)

HTML web gallery indexes and bug with Chrome browsers

I'm getting weird results with Lightroom to generate HTML web galleries and viewed on a Chrome browsers where the last image in a row drops down to the next row, making the index look horked? Sample page below, could someone using Chrome let me know if they are seeing the same thing? Is this an issues isolated to me, or known by Adobe? http://www.wrestlersarewarriors.com/images/wrestling/college/2015/15CMWSFSSTAN/index.html

Tried it on Chrome 40.0.2214.111m running on Win7 and it looks ok.
There is a 6x5 grid of photos, none out of place.
Checked through several different galleries. Firefox 35 and IE 11 all look the same.
I can also check it out on a chromebook tomorrow when at work

Adding Rows to HTML Web Gallery

I am satisfied with Lightroom over all, but there is one item, I could not use at moment -> the web-gallery. I would like to use the standard HTML Gallery, but I need to add more rows. Wish: 3 columns, 8-9 rows (at moment I use Fotostation to built up my web galleries in this way -> see http://www.npx-photo.com -> click on a picture to get to the gallery).
Is it possible to change the code of the standard gallery? Does anyone has had the same problem and solved it?
Any help would be great to make my life much easier ;-)

Don't know if this helps you at all. It's not LR of course.....
In CS2 Adobe added two Flash-based templates you can use for your online Web Photo Gallery. Even cooler is the fact that you can now add a background music track to one of these Flash galleries. Just follow these steps: First find the MP3 audio track you want to use as your background music and rename the file as "useraudio.mp3". Then open your Photoshop CS2 application folder and navigate to Presets>Web Photo Gallery. Inside that folder look for either Flash Gallery 1 or Flash Gallery 2. Depending on which gallery you chose within Photoshop, drag-and-drop your audio file into the corresponding folder. That's it! You've got background music.

Html web Gallery: Cell Number Size

I need to determine how to alter the size of the Cell Numbers in the :standard" Lightroom Web Gallery layout.
The numbering is too large to be clearly seen in the upper left hand corner of the cell i;e the thumbnails cover a portion of the numerals.
I'm fairly certain that my client is not going to appreciate this "feature".
How does one change the font size...either in the Lightroom Web Gallery Mode or using HTML...in Dreamweaver or otherwise?
I' will appreciate any help on this.
Thank you

I don't know of a way to influence the size of the cell numbers from within LR.
From outside LR, you have two options:
1) If you want to change the number for a specific web gallery you exported:
Open file [your_webgallery]\resources\css\master.css with a text editor
Find the section ".itemNumber" and change the value of "font-size:" from 40px to something smaller
2) If you want to make the change valid for new HTML web galleries you create:
Open file "\Shared\webengines\default_html.lrwebengine\resources\css\master.css" under your LR installation directory (C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3.2 for WinXP)
Do the same edit as above
Note that option 2 has to be repeated after every installation of (new versions) of LR.

Editing Bridge HTML Web Gallery?

Is it possible to edit the HTML Gallery Web Gallery option in Bridge? I just want it to have file names below the thumbs and preview and it would be perfect for what I want to use it for.

I've found the location embedded down three "package content" levels:
/Applications/Adobe Lightroom.app/Contents/Plugins
/Web.agmodule/Contents/Resources/galleries
/default_html.lrwebengine/head.html
and related html files.
Reminds me of the "beware of the leopard" bit in Hitchhiker's Guide.

Lightroom 4.1 flash web gallery does not work in 32 bit Internet Explorer 9.0

I have a web site with a Web Gallery I created in Lightroom 4.1. . The Web Gallery will not work in the IE 9.0 32 bit browser. It does work in the IE 9.0 64 bit browser. Also, all other flash material seems to work fine in my 32 bit browser such as Youtube and other flash sites material. I have a flash menu created from another product on my web site which also works fine in the 32 bit IE browser but I cannot get the Lightroom Flash Gallery to work in this browser.
Any suggestions?

I am not sure to know where I can do this ...
is it this ?: I selected all images
unfortunatly result is the same ...

Web Module: Works great, but is it possilble to publish an HTML web gallery that does not use thumbnails, but just displays all photos (one above another)?

It would be nice if a published web gallery did not require clicking or sliding in order to view a new picture. Is there a template that just puts up every image in the gallery, full-size, one above another? That's how I like my webpages - see, for example, www.sgrhoa.net/betz/150205/ .
Thanks!
Bill

The built-in templates do not do that. At a quick glance, none of the available templates from Adobe's site do that either.

HTML web gallery with 3 sizes?

Hello all! I'm getting started with the LR SDK and am currently dissecting the default_html.lrwengine gallery template. That gallery supports a grid of thumbnails which link to a detail page for each photo. I'm trying to add a second link on the detail pages which links to a full size copy of each photo (the detail page versions are not full size but instead something like "medium" resolution).
I have created photoSizes in the model for thumb, medium, and large with all the correct properties, I added a second AddPhotoPages entry to the manifest (for the full size version), and I have edited my thumbs.html (replacing grid.html), medium.html (replacing detail.html), and large.html files to link each other accordingly... however, the medium >> large link never seems to work.
Is there some trick to adding a third (or more) size to LR web galleries? Do I need to do something beyond just adding more photoSizes and more html files? Is there some funky syntax for including more than one AddPhotoPages entry in the manifest? I assumed that's what the "variant" property was for...

I've done a version of this where the large file links to the medium and it works no problem. code is based on tutorial code I've already written..
I'd need to see more code to see where the issue might be..
Here's what I have:
(I opted not to put the files in "content", also ignore margin-top, it's not relevent to this)
AddGridPages {
template='grid.html',
rows=model.nonCSS.numRows,
columns=model.nonCSS.numCols,

destination='resources',
AddPhotoPages {
template='detail.html',
variant='_large',
destination="",
AddPhotoPages {
    template='medium.html',
    variant='_medium',
    destination="",
In medium.html
<div id="detailContainer">
<div style="margin-top:<%= margintop %>px;">
<img src="bin/images/med/<%= image.exportFilename %>.jpg" alt="$image.metadata.description"/></div>
</div>
in detail.html
<div id="detailContainer">
<div style="margin-top:<%= margintop %>px;">
<a href="<%= image.exportFilename %>_medium.html"><img src="bin/images/photo/<%= image.exportFilename %>.jpg" alt="$image.metadata.description"/></a></div>

Can I Change HTML Web Gallery Title & Caption Fonts in LR2?

If so, how?

I don't think you can change the name, but you can put the gallery in a subdirectory on your site and link to it there, that way you don't have to rename it. That's what I do, I have each of my galleries in their own directory and the main page in the root, all with their own index.html.

HTML web gallery: how do I set a value for 'alt="nil"'

LR 1.4: My main images all come up with 'alt="nil"'. I know I can edit this (file by file) after gallery creation, but how can I set this to a value other than "nil" in the creation process itself, in Lightroom?

You can't. Unless the App developer for a specific App added a password feature to their App, there is no way to password protect Apps on iOS.

Keep CS5 HTML "lightroom" web gallery template from renaming files...

When creating an HTML Web Gallery (using ‘Lightroom’ template), Bridge CS5 renames the thumbs and large images to an arbitrary number. The caption reads as the original file name, but the actual image has a new name. This is problematic, as my clients will right-click selected images from my galleries to save and forward for approval, but the file name is not the same as the original.
As an example: VLNK0321.jpg is renamed as _4856316150.jpg. (In Preferences/Output, the "Convert multi-byte file names to Full ASCII" is unchecked.)
Is there any way to fix this little (for me--BIG) problem? Can the script be altered to keep the original file name, not the ten-digit arbitrary number that it currently generates?
Thanks for any help offered!

I believe I've discovered the file/script that does the renaming. I've done some testing, and have been able to change the way Bridge does the changes, but not able to keep the original file name.
The file is "galleryCreator.jsxinc", found in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Bridge CS5 Extensions\Adobe Output Module\mediagallery\resources\scripts.
I'm not a code-guy, so I'm hoping that someone with more smarts than I can help. Below is the part of "galleryCreator.jsxinc" that does the re-naming. Simply deleting this entire part of the script renders Bridge unusable. So allowing the script to create the altername is important. If the alteration could consist of only adding the "underscore" prefix to the original file name, all would be well...
Here's the pertient portion of the script:
AOM.AmgGalleryCreator.createUniqueFileName = function(filePath, jpgFile, createMode)
    var alteredName;
    while (true)
        alteredName = "_";
        for (var i=0; i<10; i++)
            alteredName += Math.floor(Math.random() * 10);
        alteredName += ".jpg";
        var f = new File(filePath + alteredName);
        if (!f.exists)
            break;
    return alteredName;
I will send a check for $200 to the first person who can rewrite this to simply add the underscore first, then return the original file name instead of the random number generator, and make it work. Anyone?

How do I change filename for single-image HTML pages in web gallery for LR 3

Hi,
I would like to change the default filename for the HTML pages produced by Lightroom 3 in the web gallery. Specifically, I would like to remove the string "_large" from the HTML filename, so it corresponds exactly to the image filename.
Specifically, the URL by default is like this:
http://www.mysite.com/content/_c_EMT2146_large.html
and I would like it to be like this
http://www.mysite.com/content/_c_EMT2146.html
I assume there is some way to make this change using the template editors, but I can't figure it out.
thanks,
James Riemermann

Turns out there's a fairly easy way to change that on Windows, but I can't figure out an equivalent on a Mac, which is where the need is. On windows, I can edit (after backing up) the following two config files:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3.6\Shared\webengines\default_html.lrwebengine\grid.html
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3.6\Shared\webengines\default_html.lrwebengine\manifest.lrweb
In which the "_large" string is appended and can be removed, following which the gallery works exactly as I would hope.
But I can't find the equivalent files on the Mac, though I would assume they exist.
