Hi

I'm using the following gallery template to insert into a nivo slider;

<img src="<perch:gallery id="slide" />" width="<perch:gallery id="slide-w" />" height="<perch:gallery id="slide-h" />" alt="<perch:gallery id="imageAlt" />" />

And I have specified the size in the image.html;
<perch:gallery id="image" type="image" key="slide" width="822" height="529" crop="true" />

Here is the php on the webpage;
<?php
$opts = array(
'template'=>'slider.html',
'image'=>true
);
perch_gallery_album('joinerySlider', $opts);
?>

It works fine when I replace an existing image, but if I upload a new image, its putting in the thumbnail version.

Here is a link to the site;
http://perch.acnretaildesign.co.uk/joinery.php (images 4 and 5 show the problem)

Have I got something wrong in the templates?

Wayne

Just tested an image I saved for web (700KB) and that worked. Whereas the others were straight off a camera around 4MB.

The client is going to be using jpgs of around 4MB as he doesn't have any software to optimise them.

Is this to do with php memory on the hosting?

Thanks Drew. I will check it out. I have just noticed though... when I click diagnostics, it takes me back to the login page...?

Just tried it again. It does try to go to /settings/diagnostics but then either comes up "The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading." or jumps back to the login.

Where would I find a server error log?

Ok. Had a look... it mainly consists of [error] File does not exist: Then several lines of missing files??

Its not a hosting company I normally use, it was something the client already had in place, so I'm not sure if I'm looking in the right place.

I'm going to be moving the site to the main domain tomorrow rather than the subdomain and clearing out the database of my testing, so I will see how its performing then.

Hi Drew

I've just tried another test which might work as a short-term work-around. If I go into one of the images thats coming out small sized in the gallery and re-upload the same image, it re-sizes correctly and displays fine in the slider.

So the thumbnail image is only happening when I upload a new image for the first time.

I can go to the client with this work-around for now, but if we could figure out why this is happening, that would be great.

btw. I haven't moved it across to the live site yet as mentioned earlier.

Is there a way to upload a single new image not through the bulk uploader? I can only find this option when replacing an existing image.

Just wondering if this was solved as I am looking for a non-flash slider (slideshow) that will work with Perch for my clients to swap out images. Is the Nivo Slider compatible with Perch?

Yes thanks. I am just looking for a slider that will work with Perch, the one featured on the Perch site is flash based so not really an option going forward. Does Perch have any 'recommended' or tested 'non-flash' sliders? Thx.
