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)
AddGridPages {
template='grid.html',
rows=model.nonCSS.numRows,
columns=model.nonCSS.numCols,
AddCustomCSS {
filename='resources/css/custom.css',
AddResources {
source='resources',
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>

  • 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...

  • How to upgrade from trial connect 9 version with elearning features?

    Please advise how i upgrade from my current trial version of Connect 9 to the full version with elearning features.
    I see that the public pricing is without the elearning features, so for me this is no good as i need to host courses. The email address of [email protected] is invalid and bounces back and the phone line helpers are unable to provide information to help.
    I cannot find costings or online download options anywhere
    Please help as a matter of urgency

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Web Gallery CS4 Journal with Slideshow giving too much info

    I have photos from a number of authors. There are also various functions for which I want a slide show for each. I would like the information on the left of the slide to give the Description (if present), and the person who took the photo.
    No matter how many items I uncheck in various metadata panels, I still get:
    Creation date
    Date file modified
    Camera make
    Camera model
    x resolution
    y resolutin
    resolution unit
    Image size
    Metering mode
    File source
    Focal length
    Max aperture value
    Flash fired
    I have unchecked any of these that I have found ANYWHERE in Bridge, but cannot get rid of them. This information is definitely not necessary on the website where they will be posted.
    Does anyone know how to get rid of these items. It is a real pain to try to remove them from the xml file when saved to disk (and there are a LOT of photos to process.
    I am using OSX 10.5.7 and supposedly Bridge is up to date.

    Hi there!
    I have found a much easier way to fix this, and you don't have to start over by building your web galleries in Photoshop. You just have to alter the code a little bit.
    By all means, create your way cool web galleries in Bridge, but look in the "resources" folder that Bridge creates when it makes a web gallery. Inside the "resources" folder you will find a file called "group.xml". Open it in Dreamweaver or whatever you use and view the code. Scroll down until you see <item>. The next lines will contain all that pesky information you want to delete. For example, you might see <title>filename.jpg<title>. Simply delete the file name so that you end up with <title><title>.
    That's it! Repeat for all the information you need to delete, or write in something better. Then hit F5 to refresh the code.
    Even an artist like me can do it. No geeky talents needed. Enjoy.

  • 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.

  • Is there a way to create a web gallery from Bridge with just 1 row and 3 columns?

    It looks like I can't select a number lower than 3. I'm hoping there may be a way around this?

    I'm hoping there may be a way around this?
    Web gallery in bridge is very limited, the templates showing are the ones you have to work with, if you can't adjust them further then they show then that is your limit I'm afraid.
    But maybe you can try the filmstrip  templates?

  • 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.

  • 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..

  • 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.
