Web Galleries: retrieving and transferring settings / content

I use multiple LR databases to manage different websites. For each one, I use a few standard Web Gallery templates to create different pages for photos with different themes. When I first created the pages, I entered different information on each page for the Collection Title, Description, etc. I noticed that LR somehow remembered what that information was, pulling up the correct data when I go back later to recreate the web page from the original set of photos! How does it do that? Clearly, this is not part of the image metadata or the Web Gallery template; it seems to be stored elsewhere.
Unfortunately, the settings do not transfer when exporting the image folder as a catalog. I would like to be able to duplicate them on another LR database. How can I retrieve and transfer these? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Peter

"Migrating" your photos, albums, adjustments, etc. is a piece of cake. Just export the project/s using file export project from your laptop and use file import project on your desktop. Move or share the .approj file from your laptop to desktop in the way you are most comfortable with.

As for web galleries - can't answer that one with detail because I find them uselessly frustratingly unexplainably notoriously unreliable and I hate that you have no control over color profile for downloadable images. So I don't use them now after playing with them for a bit.

  • Web galleries--thumbs and large images not showing after uploading to server

    I have created 2 web galleries--one html and one Flash. I saved them to my local drive and they work perfectly. Then I uploaded to our server (I checked to see that all folders/files made it, and they did) and then when I access the index.html file, neither the thumbnails or the full-size images show. In case it helps to see, here are the two URLs

    Anyone have suggestions/ideas?
    Thanks,

    Sean--that did the trick for HTML galleries...thanks!  I am working on a IIS server, so I presume your fix and the server are related to the problem I was exeperiencing.
    In a Feb 4, 09 reply you posted to someone else, you referenced a link (see below) about making similar file mods to make Flash work, but I couldn't access the link.  Any chance you could repost these mods so I can use Flash galleries on a IIS server as well.
    Did you try my suggestions in the Flash thread?

  • Aperture Web Galleries, .Mac and the new iLife '08

    Was anyone else as dismayed as me to see that the fantastic new Web Galleries that unify the new iPhoto with .Mac don't appear to work with Aperture.
    This clearly is designed to drive us Aperture users to remain dependent on purchasing iLife, even though most of us are moving away from (or have moved completely away from) needing iPhoto. To be honest I really don't need any of the iLife suite now that I have Aperture.
    But I want/need that great looking Web Gallery (notice that it shares the same name as an Aperture "feature" - which looks dreadfully boring when compared to this product).
    As someone who has paid the Premium for Aperture and .Mac I really think we deserve to have at least an equally attractive product that integrates smoothly with .Mac.
    Yes I know I sound bitter - and here is why - Had I bought my MacBook Pro today and not seven days ago I would probably have a copy of iLife '08 available to me free.
    But alas there are no upgrade coupons anymore so I probably need to stop complaining and give Apple more cash.

    I'm in the same boat - jonesing for those slick iWeb galleries but not able to get a decent workflow from Aperture through iWeb. The inability to get ANY metadata out of Aperture and into an iWeb photo page - do they really think we're going to retype 200 captions? - is very frustrating.
    I was going to see how much of the iWeb gallery functionality could be cloned back into Aperture templates, but that is probably ambitious - to say the least - given the currently rudimentary state of my knowledge of HTML, CSS and Javascript.
    Is this indeed the case? I was wondering if iWeb 2.0 picks up any of the metadata from Aperture previews to automatically caption and title images. The example galleries look pretty slick, but I'm not going to re-type all of my captions.
    See this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=5541992#5541992
    Currently, I design the backbone of my site in iWeb 1.1, create an image directory by pulling in photos through the media browser, and hang Aperture galleries off those photos as external links. I modified the Aperture web gallery template to give a link back to the iWeb pages.
    Did you develop this technique yourself? Can you share more of the details (here or elsewhere)?

  • Retrieving and Resetting textEdit Content Using JavaScript

    I need to retrieve the content within a textEdit box using JavaScript, and then append a String to that content, and re-enter that content as the inner content of a textEdit box.  Does anyone know how to do this? 
    I tried using jsObjectNeeded for textEdit, but it is an invalid parameter for that object.  I also tried grabbing the ID in a round-about way in JavaScript using _1texteditor or _1htmlbeditor, but I get an "Object Expected" error everytime.
    Here is the item I am working with, and within my JS method, I need to grab the text inside, append a string to it, and reset that new content as the text within the edit box.
    <hbj:textEdit id="summaryBox"
       text="Add summary here."
       wrapping="SOFT"
       tooltip="Add summary here."
       rows="5"
       cols="70">
    This is the content inside the box.
    </hbj:textEdit>
    Thanks in advance for your help...

    Thank you for your help, guys, but neither suggestion solved my problem and I solved it on my own.  You have to find the parameter ID through a line of Java, like Damian had mentioned about an ID, but I was looking for the value within the textEdit, not the ID. 
    In the JavaScript method, you set a variable to the Java variable, which found the parameter ID.
    Then, using that JS variable, you do:
    var blah = <%=javaParameterId%>;
    var funcName = htmlb_formid+"_getHtmlbElementId";
    func = window[funcName];
    var textEditField = eval(htmlb_formid + "." + blah);
    var wordsWithTexEdit = textEditField.value;
    Thanks anyways...

  • Using Simpleviewer Pro for Web galleries creation

    For once, I don't have a problem, I just want to share a wonderful experience with Simpleviewer Pro. Simpleviewer (the free version) comes with LR and is pretty fast and easy to figure out. However, I went and bought the Pro version for $35 and found it much more powerful and faster. It does everything I wanted from a Gallery generation application. I installed it on my desktop but when I tried the same installation on the Laptop, it crashed and told me it cannot install. After emailing techsupport I got an answer virtually in hours. It gave me specific steps to try to resolve the problem and asked to be kept posted on developments. I tried a second time, unsuccessful again and emailed svBuilder-PRO with copies of the error messages I was getting. They got back to me right away : the problem was actually a WINDOWS problem, where an old version of Adobe AIR could not be unistalled to put the new one (Simpleviewer pro uses Adobe AIR). My email had a link to a Microsoft support site which had a Microsoft FIXIT executable. I downloaded and ran the FIXIT, it fixed the problem and svBuilder - Pro installed correctly.
    In two words, this software is fast, powerful and elegant, it gives me everything I need for WEB Galleries creation and I would highly recommend it to anybody trying to do (or help doing) a WEB site.

    Here's the appropriate language relating to this
    d) Soundtrack Pro. You may use the Apple and third party audio file content (including, but not limited to, the built-in sound files, samples and impulse responses) (collectively the “Audio Content”), contained in or otherwise included with the Apple Software, on a royalty-free basis, to create your own original soundtracks for your film, video and audio projects. You may broadcast and/or distribute your own soundtracks that were created using the Audio Content, however, individual audio files may not be commercially or otherwise distributed on a standalone basis, nor may they be repackaged in whole or in part as audio samples, sound files or music beds.
    It mentions that you can distribute your audio projects, so that might seem to indicate that the answer is yes. The language is clearer in regard to synchronized music to picture, or audio for broadcast or other distribution.
    +Personally I see a gray (grey) area here . . . what about if I took a piece of stock music from the audio content and wrote lyrics to it and called it a song. Can I claim sole authorship of that . . . the agreement seems to indicate yes, but that doesn't scan to me.+
    Anyway, i think if you're talking about writing a song using loop content, I'm pretty sure the answer is yes you can sell the resulting creation. _But I'm no lawyer_. It's probably open to debate.

  • Web Galleries Bug

    After playing around with the new slimbox template suddenly after restarting lighroom, all templates in the web galleries folder don't show up in the gallery list.
    The folder is still there and all templates are in this folder.
    My System XP SP2
    What I've done so far:
    - restart LR many times
    - restart windows
    -deleted the web galleries folder and created a new one with the templates in it
    - made a repair install of lightroom
    -copied a saved preferences file from a few hours ago to the preferences location
    But nothing helps. In the list there are only the default LR HTML Gallery and LR Flash Gallery.
    I don't know what to do else...
    Unfortunately the slimbox gallery is the first lightroom gallery I like and now I can't use it.
    This is the first serious bug on my pc with lightroom.
    I hope here is someone who can help me to fix it.
    Juergen

    Ok, I found the mistake.
    Before this happened I changed the image size in the script with Microsoft XML-Notepad. This broke something else in the gallerymaker.xml because the file size was 3 KB smaller than before. I found it today after hard thinking, where the bug can be.
    For me it looks like, that lightroom ignores the complete web galleries folder, if there is only ONE script with a mistake in it. I had another template in it's own subfolder and it too wasn't visible after that.
    DON'T USE Microsoft XLM-Notepad! I couldn't find out, what exactly it changed but it caused this strange bug.

  • Why do web galleries often appear "digitized"?

    I occasionally find after creating a web gallery that it will appear digitized once viewed online, both on PC desktop and laptop.
    Recent gallery seemed fine on my La Cie monitor but "off" on my HP laptop. I'm wondering if it's a screen resolution mismatch.
    Thoughts?
    CS5; Windows 7 - desktop; Vista - laptop; plenty of RAM, etc.

    Subject: Why do web galleries often appear "digitized"?
    OK you using a non color managed Browser. Color space may be an issue I don't see an option to convert to sRGB but that may be the default mode of operation. I don't use the Bridge for creating Web Galleries IMO bridge's output module is very poor. I think Adobe short changed their users by adding it and removing better features from Photoshop. I use Photoshop to generate HTML web galleries. I installed Photoshop Old Photo Web Gallery support to generate customized HTML web Galleries and I use Photoshop scripts to generate Flash Web Galleries.  While the Bridges  upload Web Gallery to web server option seems to be a nice option. I would rather do that as a low priority Background Windows FTP job and be able to use Photoshop during the upload for upload web connectios bandwidth is slow and uploads can be long running.  Adobe really disappointed me when they added the Bridge's output module and removed better features from Photoshop. With the Bridge
    output module you can not customize Web galleries well and its PDF support lacks the abilities of the PDF support they removed from Photoshop and that PDF support can NOT be downloaded from Adobe's web site and installed into Photoshop.  If you need the removed support you have to keep two version of Photoshop installed on you system and forget about getting support for the old version you need to have.  Adobe's support is very poor and they drop support for old version of Photoshop like a hot potato. 

  • Web Galleries and Passwords

    Are web galleries able to be password protected?

    Ok Christoph, I think I see what you're saying.
    You can only set one password for the top level Web Gallery index page - you would like to send people to gallery.mac.com/mygallery#gallery and depending on how they log on they would then get access to different content - a bit like having more than one gallery really via login/password.
    Is that correct?
    You probably know that you can set separate login names/passwords for the individual albums on the gallery top level page. You do this in iPhoto by choosing a gallery, clicking Settings, then Album Viewable by - Edit names and passwords.
    This would allow you to have top level albums viewable by all, and other albums by individual login/passowrds. The problem with this though is that you can't tell which album you can access for a given username which might confuse people, unless you named the album accordingly Work - Office Party, Family - Joe's Birthday or something and told people which category Work/Family/etc they could access with their logins.

  • Bridge Help | Create web galleries and PDFs with Adobe Output Module

    This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/bridge/using/create-web-galleries-pdfs-adobe.html

    Plug-ins that failed to load:
    It seems to me that something is wrong with your install. Maybe you did clone a former mac to install on this one? or copies old stuff to the new one. Don't know, it seems easy and quick but I prefer always a new install using a new computer or switching to a new system upgrade.
    Lightning effects shows to be 32 bit while I think to know that Photoshop CS5 and CS5.5 are both 64 bit, however Bridge was turned to 64 bit in the CS6 version but that should not mater for you to use both applications from the same install disk (or download?)
    And variations is something I tried to find in CS6 but can't find it there. I had long forgotten this feature that presented different previews and you could switch to color corrections and brightness (not sure) while looking at the result in the previews.
    So I think you have some old material residing on your system. I would advice you to back up all custom settings (actions, tools, workspaces etc. and keywords in Bridge) Then do a search for the Adobe Cleaner tool :
    http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html?promoid=GYTAU
    (don't know this links work for you but you can find it easy with google).
    Read the instructions carefully and follow this using the official uninstaller that came with PS (see application folder). Also be sure to have your serial number and AdobeID present and while an activation of PS is for the computer maybe for security first deactivate before uninstall.

  • Aperture 3 and iPhoto web galleries...

    Hi Folks,
    I have used iPhoto and want to shift to Aperture 3. I have the 30day trial installed and have imported my iPhoto library successfully. iPhoto events, photos and albums are shown in Aperture Projects but I cannot see MobileMe or Facebook albums that were uploaded and displayed in iPhoto.
    How am I able to import these web galleries into Aperture 3?
    Martin Fuggle

    I figured out the mobile me galleries but not FaceBook.
    First you need to create at least one new MobileMe gallery from within Aperture.
    Go to the MobileMe galleries in Safari. Click on the "adjust settings" tab and it will ask which app you want to sync with. Obviously, select aperture and hit publish. You need to do this for ALL the albums individually.
    Done right? I thought so.
    I opened Aperture and the albums were still not in there. Go to Aperture preferences and to "Web" there you click on something to the effect of check for new published items. Click to check now.
    Voila.
    If you figure out the facebook albums let me know. I am guessing those are not possible to do.

  • Web Galleries and overall image migration

    Hey all,
    I've got a question regarding the MobileMe web galleries. I'm pretty sure that you can create them in three places; Aperture, iPhoto and iWeb. So my question is kind of relating to two methods of creating and collaborating web galleries.
    Say that you've created a web gallery in iPhoto in a pinch but use Aperture primarily. Now you're on Aperture and want to continue to update that gallery. Is there a way to migrate that gallery from iPhoto to Aperture. Or, and this is my situation more specifically, say you're on vacation and create an Aperture based web gallery on your Macbook. Now you're back home and want to continue using and updating that web gallery but are now on the Mac Pro. Can that gallery be migrated from the Aperture database on the Macbook over to the database on the Mac Pro?
    To that point, how about image alterations and settings. I've captured some 1200 photos while on vacation, tooled around with them on my Macbook while away making color adjustments, adding vignettes and general improvements. Is there any way to then migrate those albums and/or settings over to the other database in the other system? Seems a shame to have to do all that leg work all over again. Perhaps it's just a matter of grabbing album folders from the database package and bringing them into the other database package?

    "Migrating" your photos, albums, adjustments, etc. is a piece of cake. Just export the project/s using file export project from your laptop and use file import project on your desktop. Move or share the .approj file from your laptop to desktop in the way you are most comfortable with.

  • How to retrieve and display image from database in a web page

    Hi all;
    I have been trying this for some time now. I have found some tutorials so far but none of them addresses my concern. Here it is:
    I have built a web application that can connect to an Oracle DB.
    I have a table called "employee", where I record any employee details, among which the employee picture. I stored the pictures and the finger prints using "Oracle sql developper" as blob type.
    How can i retrieve and view all these information when i run the application?
    I can easily retrieve all other types of value, but the image(BLOB type) has been a nightmare for me.
    HELP PLEASE.

    Solution: google. There are many example of how to do this. For example, any book on servlets will have an example of dishing up a dynamic image.

    please any answer.
    my itunes is the latest.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Unfortunately, a number of users appear to have encountered this problem. Some of these users have reported that the problem just disappears the following day or shortly after. Other users have found various other solutions to this problem.
    Firstly, are you receiving any date and time errors when you turn on your Apple TV?
    Check that you are properly connected to the Internet, by ensuring that you have a proper IP address and not one starting with 169. Also check that your location for the iTunes Store is set correctly, if so you might try changing it and then changing it back.
    If the problem persists try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds, or resetting it using the reset option under general. You should also try restarting your router, or if this doesn't work you might like to try a restore.
