Hi Adam,

 

I've installed the demo of dotnetgallery and I've also created a Virtual Directory - http://www.logistixonline.com/logistixgallery/

 

I'd like to integrate dotnetgallery so visually it looks like the rest of my cute chat website. Could you show me what the code should look like with dotnetgallery integrated?

 

Many thanks

 

Mike

Mike,

 

DotNetGallery is a user control.

 

You can plug it into any page you want.

 

To add DotNetGallery to an ASP.NET page, do the following:

   <%@ Register TagPrefix="CE" Namespace="DotNetGallery" Assembly="DotNetGallery" %>

  <CE:Gallery
    id="gallery1"
    runat="server"
    Width="600"
    LayoutRenderMode="SimpleGrid"
    Column = "6"
    MaxImageWidth="1024"
    BackColor="#ffffff"
    CellPadding="5"  
    AutoResizeUploadedImages = "true"  
    CellSpacing="5"
    ForeColor="#000000"
    BorderColor="#cc0000"
    BorderStyle="solid"
    BorderWidth="0"
    CssClass="container"
    ShowUpload="true"
    ShowEditDescription="false"
    ShowThumbNailName="true" 
    ShowThumbNailSize="true" 
    ShowThumbNailDate="false" 
    ShowThumbNailDescription="true" 
    ShowDescriptioninIndexView="false"
    FolderPath = "~/samplefolder"
   ></CE:Gallery>

 

 

Thanks Adam it works a treat, however I have a few small problems I hope you can help with.

 

You can view my gallery here: http://www.logistixonline.com/logistixchat/gallery.aspx

 

1. Clicking on the Slide Show button loads, but no images are displayed. Any ideas what's causing this?

 

2. On the Slide Show page, how do I change the Help icon link from http://cutesoft.net/ ?

 

3. How do I change the Home page icon link? At the moment it goes to the root of my website, whereas I want it to point to a sub-directory on my website.

 

4. What does the Batch Gallery Index Build do? When I click it, the Next> link at the bottom of my page disappears. Is this normal?

 

5. I can adjust the number of columns, but where do I adjust the number of rows?

 

Many thanks

 

Mike

 

 

 

 

Mike,

 

>>1. Clicking on the Slide Show button loads, but no images are displayed. Any ideas what's causing this?

 

You have set LayoutRenderMode property to simpleGrid. Slideshow is not available in this layout mode.

 

You have to two chioces:

 

1. Use SimpleGrid mode and set Gallery.ShowSlideShow Property to false

 

2. Use ThumbnailSlideShow mode.

 

>>2. On the Slide Show page, how do I change the Help icon link from http://cutesoft.net/ ?

 

Gallery.HelpUrl Property

Specifies the URL path of the Help page button.

>>3. How do I change the Home page icon link? At

 

Gallery.HomeUrl Property
Specifies the URL path of the Home page button.

>>4. What does the Batch Gallery Index Build do? When I click it, the Next> link at the bottom of my page disappears. Is this normal?

 

This poweful button will help you build the gallery from scratch.  After you create this button, you show make sure you set this button visible to average users (Gallery.ShowBatchBuild Property).

 

>>5. I can adjust the number of columns, but where do I adjust the number of rows?

 

Gallery.Row Property
The Row of the thumbnails.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hi Adam,

 

Is there anyway to restrict how many images can be uploaded to a single directory?
