Artetics.com - Start Point For Your Web Site

Hi there
Is there any detailed documentation for this extension?
I've been mucking round for over an hour now and can't suss it out.
Simple things like "where does the code actually go?" a real life example would be nice
"How do you reference it to a single image?" a real life example would be nice
"Do I have to create a folder of thumbs and larger images or will it do it on the fly?"

Documentation really does seem to be lacking and I see quite a few feel the same

Cheers

Hello,

After you install the extension using standard Joomla! installation
procedure (Extensions -> Install/Uninstall) please make sure it is enabled in Extensions -> Plugin Manager -> Art Pretty Photo.

After that you need to insert plugin code in the article where you want to
add the gallery.

Plugin description is here: http://demo.artetics.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=50&Itemid=57

To show the gallery on the page you can place the following plugin code into the article:

{artprettyphoto path="images" /}

To specify the width and height of thumbnails is can be:

{artprettyphoto path="images" width="200" height="100" /}

To use specific folder for thumbnails it can be (thumbnail images and full-size images should have the same names):

{artprettyphoto path="images" thumbnailPath="images/thumbs" /}

To show single image which when clicked will show th efull gallery the code can be the following:

{artprettyphoto path="images" singleImage="images/1.jpg" /}

Plugin code for Flickr feed:
{artprettyphoto flickr="FLICKR_USER" /}

Plugin code for Flickr photo set:

{artprettyphoto flickrApiKey="FLICKR_API_KEY" flickr="FLICKR_USER" flickrSet="FLICKR_PHOTO_SET" flickrImageSize="o" /}

Plugin code for Picasa album:

{artprettyphoto picasaUser="PICASA_USER" picasaAlbum="PICASA_ALBUM"/}

Please let us know if there are any other questions.

I have a question along these lines, but with one more step. Is there any way to make this extension work with a non-public, Picasa album?

Thanks!

Hello,

Currently only public albums are supported. However private albums support is on our list of implementations in near future.

Hi,
It doesn´t work.
I tried with different ways but I can´t see the thumbnails.

Currently I´m using this tag:

Code:

{artprettyphoto path=images/stories/products/gal/product1}

And I see the full images only. If I add width="200" height="100" I got an error. What is the correct path? Thanks,

Hello,

This should be:

{artprettyphoto path="images/stories/products/gal/product1" width="200" height="100"/}

where images/stories/products/gal/product1 is the folder with images under your Joomla! directory.

Please give it a try.

Hi,
I tried with this but I got this message:

QUOTE:
Could not open a directory stream for /home/rashtjj/public_html/|||quot;images/stories/products/gal/product1|||quot; width=|||quot;200|||quot; height=|||quot;100|||quot;/

It looks like your WYSIWYG editor is replacing " symbols with quot; and this is the origin of the problem. Could you please try inserting plugin code in plain text mode?

If you need more assistance with this you can provide us with access to your Joomla! back-end and we will set this up and running for you (our email).
