Unable To ADD GALLERIES

[melissatrippel143962]

There is no option for me to add galleries, it says to add galleries just click "add gallery" but there is no option to "add galleries"

AND the text is all jumbled up in my admin area, the text is in one straight line where words are cut off

Thanks

When you first log in to the admin, there should be a button to add galleries on the top right of that page. Please post a screenshot of what the page looks like after you log in. What browser are you using?

I have attached a screenshot of my admin area

What browser and version are you using? Can you try using another browser and see if that makes a difference?

[melissatrippel143962]

Mozilla Firefox newest version, I will try using another one. I dont have any others installed on my mac, is there one you recommend?

Maybe Netscape?

[Justin Nemeth]

Safari is included on your mac, so give that one a try. FYI, Netscape doesn't really exist anymore, Firefox has taken its place.

Do you have any Firefox extensions installed? There could be a conflict that is affecting how PowerGallery looks. I use Firefox, Chrome, and Safari on my mac and all of them render PowerGallery like it should.

Can you also try going to the powergallery-demo.com site and see if that renders the same way for you?

Internet Explorer wont even let me log in

[Justin Nemeth]

Mac Internet Explorer has been discontinued for several years now, so that is expected it's not going to work in that browser at all.

It works fine on a PC in IE, a little inconvenient for me, has anyone else had the issue of the PowerGallery not working on a Mac with Firefox, there should be a patch for this

Thanks

Hi melissatrippel,

I had the same-ish problem as you have regardinhg the 'choose a gallery page'.

A tall string of text, with the 'choose a gallery' divs pushed right to the bottom of the page. (They were there, but I had to scroll down a fair way). Don't know if it is the same for you, but I had to change a style attribute in the admin/css/admin.css stylesheet, '#text-with-button' div 'overflow' from hidden to visible:

/* full width bands
--------------------------------------------------*/

.text-with-button {
overflow: hidden;
padding-right: 20px;
}

to:

/* full width bands
--------------------------------------------------*/

.text-with-button {
overflow: visible;
padding-right: 20px;
}


May not be the same with yours, but I had to make that change.

[Justin Nemeth]

It would be helpful to know the exact OS, browser, and version you guys are having problems with. That way we can look into it better. PowerGallery was tested across Firefox, Safari, Chrome, IE on windows and mac and all of those rendered the CSS as expected.

Melissa, did you try Safari on your mac?

Hi Justin,

I now know my problem was not any fault/problem with the WA files as provided.

I changed the WA logo at the top of the 'choosegallery' and other admin pages to suit site branding (admin.css), and the replacement logo was 10px more in height than the original WA logo.

It affected the layout of the '#text-with-button' div, until I changed the overflow from hidden to visible. If anyone rebrands with a larger logo, they may have the same problem.

Firefox 3.5.5, Vista sp3.

Melissa's problem probably has another cause (although the visual results were identical).
