Question regarding using Lightroom Web Module and Zenfolio

I use LR3 and like the galleries I can make in the Web Module. If I use Zenfolio as a web hosting service, can I upload or export my photos from LR to Zenfolio and use the galleries I create in the Lightroom Web Module,,,or do I need to use the existing gallery templates in Zenfolio? If that is the case, other than using Lightroom to upload photos, is it's Web Gallery Module superflous?
Thanks,
Matthew Kraus

Matthew,
If you are asking if you need to use LR's Web Module to export images to Zenfolio, then no you would not use the LR Web Module but rather use a plug-in to export directly to Zenfolio. Or you can just export to your local HDD and use Zenfolio's upload module to grab the files from your local drive.
Jeffery Friedl has a nice LR plug-in for SmugMug so I am sure his Zenfolio plug-in will work nicely as well:
http://regex.info/blog/lightroom-goodies/zenfolio
It's free, sort of, after the trial period, like 45-days as I recall, there is a limit on the number of files which can be uploaded. When the trial expires if ya like it you just donate any amount and get to upload any number of files as Zenfolio allows in a session.
Does that help answer your question?

Lightroom web module

Re "Lightroom Web Module"
In the "site info" panel, I type the word "exit"
In the "web or mail link" section, I copy and paste the web page address of the page on my site
I wish it to be directed to.
I preview this with the Lightroom "Preview in Browser" button.
All works perfectly well including the exit link.
I then export it into my website "local file".
Create a link from text on my web page to the lightroom created gallery (I'm using Dreamweaver)
Then save changes in Dreamweaver and click preview in browser.
The Gallery works fine with the exception of the exit link.
I have the same problem in the Web HTML Gallery
I have also downloaded Lightroom 3.6 from Adobe labs and had the same result.
Any Suggestions
Many thanks...David

Hi Pete. Thanks for your reply.
Tried replacing exit with home without any results
Doubbled checked the link address was correct in lightroom...it was.
Just tried something I had not tried before. Up untill now, I was using only the "preview in browser" in
Dreamweaver.
When I uploaded the gallery to the remote server and went to see if it worked on my site it did !!!!
Not sure why it won't work in the "preview in browser" in dreamweaver but.....a question for bigger brains than mine..
Many Thanks for your help

Image Info setting in Lightroom Web Module

I watched the Turning Gate Podcast on how to customize the text used for photo titles, captions and other items in Lightrooms web module.
In the Podcast pictures I noticed that in the web module Image Info pane section there are four individual settings available: Title, Caption, Annotations and a fourth one which I could not read.
In my version of Lightroom (Version 1.3) I have only Caption and Title available (displayed). How do I get the others displayed?

Brent,
On the left hand side double click on hard drive under "Publish Services" then do the following
In the Publish Services panel on the left side of the Library module, click the Adobe Revel connection Set Up button.
In the Lightroom Publishing Manager dialog box, look under Account and click Authorize.
Follow the prompts to allow Adobe Revel to communicate with Lightroom.
I played around with it to figure out different features of publishing Lightroom to Revel.
Once you have it set up then can create a new collection/abum by control clicking on the Adobe Revel. Then you can add image from your hard drive by dragging and dropping them into an album.
Then select "Publish" when you are done. Log in to your Revel account and check to make sure the images show up.
You can add watermarks to the images if you like.
Let me know if you have any other questions
Thanks
Scott

I want to use the Web module to publish to the a website... What kind of server do I need to be able to publish my website?

You don't need a server, you just need a web hosting package such as the ones from GoDaddy or many other hosts. You then send the web gallery directly from LR to your web space.
As you're asking such basic questions, it might be best if you read articles like this and see if a friend or colleague can get you started.

How can you develop photo galleries with multiple pages using the web module?

Going through the web module I can see there are many options for developing a web page with a single collection of photos. How can you develop a web site with multiple pages containing different categories of photos using the Lightroom web module?

This thread will give you several ideas.

When using Lightroom Book module for Blurb book making, why do I keep getting a low image quality message if it's supposedly accessing my large raw files in my library?

When using Lightroom Book module for Blurb book making, why do I keep getting a low image quality message if it's supposedly accessing my large raw files in my library?

I think I've solved my problem with a Google Search. I came across a free slide show generator
(contributions requested) that shows much higher quality slide shows than either iPhoto or Aperture 3.
You click on a folder of jpegs and it almost immediately generates thumbnails and within a few seconds
I can be viewing a full screen, tack sharp, slideshow of all of the files in the folder. Much sharper than
I'm used to seeing.
I think I'll keep the Aperture 3 and use if for the purpose it's intended for in the future. I'll also redo the
image preview files to the small size it started with and then I'll copy all of the files I'm interested in from
iPhoto into a separate folder on another disk. I'll use Aperture to catalog and to perform image manipulations
on but I won't try to use it as an iPhoto replacement. I don't think I'll be using iPhoto much as an image
viewer in the future either after I finish moving my favorite pictures to the Phoenix Slides folder.
The name of the free program is Phoenix Slides. It's free to download and try, free to keep (though I
think you'd want to pay the small amount requested) and fast. My pictures have never looked so good
before.

Hi, I am having a little trouble with exporting images to another drive and Catalogue and need some help if anyone can give me some advice
I am currently using Lightroom 5.6 and operating on a Mac with OSX Ver 10.9.5.
I am receiving an error problem when doing the following -
I am exporting selected photos from a particular Catalogue saved on Drive 1 to a folder created on another Drive where a Lightroom Catalogue has been created. In this Catalogue I have arranged for the images once exported to be moved to a different folder - I used the Auto Import process under the File dialogue box.
When processing the Export I receive an error message for each of the images being exported indicating the following -
Heading Import Results
Some import operations were not performed
Could not move a file to requested location. (1)
then a description of the image with file name
Box Save As Box OK
If I click the OK button to each image I can then go to the other Catalogue and all images are then transferred to the file as required.
To click the OK button each time is time consuming, possibly I have missed an action or maybe you can advise an alternative method to save the time in actioning this process.
Thanks if you can can help out.

Thank You, but this is a gong show. Why is something that is so important to us all so very, very difficult to do?

1. You have allowed Apple to auto-upgrade your Mac
Turn off auto-update here:
Menu > Apple > System Preferences > App Store
2. The Icons on your dock are Aliases not real apps
They point to where the apps really are which is:
For Pages 5.2.2 in your Applications folder
For Pages '09 in your Applications/iWork folder
3. You are alternately opening documents randomly with either version of Pages
Both Pages have the same file extension .pages and there is no certainty as to which version opens them when you double click on a file.
right click on the file and choose which version you want to open it
4. Pages '09 can not open Pages 5 files
Pages 5 can not open Pages '08 files, and will convert and change Pages '09 and Word files.
It will also auto save opened files into its own format.
You can export these back to Pages '09 if you need to:
Menu > File > Export > Pages '09
5. Yes Pages 5.2.2 is a marked downgrade
Pages 5.2.2 has a few improvements but has had over 110 features removed and is buggy.
Sooner or later you will not be able to open a file or have it damaged in some way and it has a complex obscure file format largely incompatible with everything else, so you will not be able to rescue the contents of your file. If Pages or some third party server/eMail don't trash your file, eventually Apple will do it for you as it did when it released Pages 5 last September. I recommend using Pages '09 for the time being whilst you look for viable alternatives, some are here already and some are on the way.

Using lightroom 5.6 and Photoshop elements 12

When I am using Lightroom 5.6 and want to Edit In Photoshop the picture transfers over to PS but it won't allow me to use layers. How can I fix this?

Usually that means that lightroom sent over the photo in 16 bits/channel and you want 8 bits/channel in order to use layers in photoshop elements.
After you open the image from lightroom into photoshop elements you can go Image>Mode and click on 8 bits/channel
or in the Lightroom Preferences (Edit)>External Editing set the Bit Depth to 8 bits/component

Questions about Using Lightroom and Print Studio Pro

I want to use Print Studio pro via the lightroom plugin since as I understand it, that is the only way to ensure a 16-bit file is being passed to the printer (on Windows). However, I am a little confused about how the image is being rendered. Is lightroom applying a default output sharpening to the file before handing it off to Print Studio Pro or Does Print Studio Pro manage resolution and Output sharpening based on the media and print size you choose?
So basically I am wondering if there is any output sharpening being applied, and when is it applied. The possibilities I think would be:
Lightroom is applying a default output sharpening when rendering the file to TIF for Print Studio Pro (If this is the case, what setting is being applied and is it possible to change it?)
Print Studio Pro is applying output sharpening based on media type and print size, or applying a generiz amount of sharpening that does not take into account media or size.
No Sharpening is being applied. In this case, I should probably be exporting this file manually with output sharpening applied and then opening in Print Studio Pro
The other question I have is if when using the plugin is the TIF file that is being generated in 16-bit pro-photo to ensure the maximum amount of color data?
Because if Print Studio Pro is not applying sharpening I think it may just be better to print through the lightroom tool even though it renders down to 8-bit because the amount of control I have via the lightroom print module would be far more advantageous than any color data I am losing by printing in 8-bit.
Anyone know the answer to all this?

I had similar questions when I first got my Pro-100.
1. You can call up PSP from any module, so I assume it is ignoring print module settings.
2. If I select a Saved Print, which adjusts the print module settings specific to that print, and the open PSP the paper settings in PSP are not what is in LR, supporting the "ignore" conclusion.
3. I ran some test prints using LR to print at three different output sharpening settings (Off, Standard, High) to ensure I could see a difference (I did).
4. I ran four test prints: LR-Standard, XPS driver, LR-Standard regular driver, PSP using standard driver and PSP using XPS driver. I couldn't see any difference between the four prints.
Since LR is such an easy printing process I haven't seen a reason to use PSP.

Questions regarding using the .monitor command to retur a animated image and we would like feedback to a designed webpage that is monitoring a 5kW windturbine:)

I'm embedding a front panel image in an existing HTML dokument. I would like to use the command .monitor in the URL together with the refresh command so the VI automatic will reload every 20 secund. This actual work, but simultaneous I want to have the possibility to refresh manually so I don't have to wait 20 sec before new values is shown in the display. Is this possible to do?
Another question: Since the real time display updates 1-2 times a secund the command .monitor is used to get a animated picture of the Real Time Display.
There are several ways to add animation on to web pages. The techniques used h
ere are the �server push� and �client pull�which makes the browser repeatedly reloads a changing inline image to provide crude animated sequences. This is not the most efficient way as this result�s in an image being re-transmitted for each frame of the animation. The command .monitor with the attribute refresh and lifespan in the URL trigger this �server push� and �client pull� techniques.
I use this automatic refresh uploading of the display so that it each time shows different values, is this called crude animation?Then I'm wondering what I'm suppose to use the command lifespan to?I can't see the use of it in my display.....?
link to the webpage so you can have a look at the display:
http://134.7.139.176/.monitor?Real%20Time%20Performance.vi&refresh=20
This is a project that I'm working together with another Norwegian friend. WE are very happy for feedback on our web page and displays go to: http://www.ece.curtin.edu.au/~peersena/ if you would like to view itThanks

Annis,
One of the other things to keep in mind is that the generation of an image does take some computing power so having the generation and the acquistion on the same machine is not always ideal. If you're using the machine that is publishing the front panel just to collect data it's not so much of an issue.
If you really want to monitor in "Real-Time" using Remote Panels (requies LabVIEW 6.1) is your best option. This posting has more information on using Remote Panels and links to some live examples:
http://exchange.ni.com/servlet/ProcessRequest?RHIVEID=101&RPAGEID=135&HOID=506500000008000000C0660000&UCATEGORY_0=_49_%24_6_&UCATEGORY_S=0&USEARCHCONTEXT_TIER_0=0&USEARCHCONTEXT_TIER_S=0&USEARCHCONTEXT_QUESTION_0=web+control&USEARCHCONTEXT_QUESTION_S=0
Remote panels makes it possible to control the application remotely as well.
With .monitor the only way I've been able to manually refresh is to "Shift+Refresh" on the browser.

Kamran

How do I use the Web module to upload video to my website?

I'm using the Lightroom HTML gallery to upload my photos, fine and dandy, very happy with it. I also have some videos trimmed in Lightroom that I want incorporated into the gallery. This doesn't seem to be happening, instead I just get thumbnails. What/how do I incorporate my video clips into my web gallery? I moved over from jAlbum so I could have a simple one-tool workflow, so I'm really hoping that this is possible.

You can combine stills and video for output to h.264 (mp4 file) for example to upload to Youtube or Vimeo.
FTP upload will be subject to the limitations of your host. The web module within Lightroom creates all resources to link to the file index.html
The forthcoming LR6 is anticipated to have HTML5 galleries.

Why Does Lightroom Web Module Export Images At 240 ppi?

Firstly, please forgive my ignorance on this subject. I am in the process of getting together a website of my images and have been experimenting with preparing the images and thumbnails through Lightroom's web module. I've noticed that when opening the finished images in Elements, that they have all been converted at 240ppi. Surely, images for websites should be at 72ppi (or possibly 96ppi)? Or am I dimmer than even I thought?

should I simply ignore the resolution box?
Yes indeed. You set the size unit box in the export dialog simply to pixels and then size the right number of pixels for your web use. Typical is for example 800 pixels on the long end. The resolution box is not relevant for web use. It is really only used as a hint to a final printing size.
So I imagine the 240ppi conversion must be the Lightroom default value. Do you think?
Very likely so. I believe Lightroom, just like Photoshop, assumes 240 for files that do not start out having the tag so that is probably what happened if this started as a scan. Many scanners do not write this tag at all, but most DSLRs write the tag into their files and it is usually 240 for older generation cameras and 300 for later ones. I don't know why they do that as it is again not relevant as people print at any size they want.
