Introduction¶
What does it do?¶
This plugins allow you to display a multimedia gallery based on the javascript library adgallery (see http://coffeescripter.com/code/ad- gallery/ ).
You can choose different directory to generate your gallery :
- Classic directory
- DAM directory (using DAM extension)
- DAM category (using DAM extension)
You can plug your content with different content type :
- A classic plugin
- In a tt_news record with the specific field and the marker ###ADGALLERY_GLOBAL### in your tt_news template
- In a tt_news record, in the RTE content, with the marker ###ADGALLERY_GLOBAL###
Screenshots¶
This is an example of what you can get :
Users manual¶
Install the “t3devapi” extension¶
This is another extension from me :-) It contains a lot of usefull function that are needed here.
Install the “adgallery” extension¶
Just download and install it. Make update (with tt_news if needed, see the next part).
Using the image selector¶
Choose image and put a title and description like this screenshot.
Using the extension without DAM¶
Just plug the plugins on a page :
Choose the “Classic directory” mode and choose the directory with the images :
There is no necessary action to generate the default adgallery but you can customize a lot of things with the flexforms.
In the first flexform tab :
You can specify :
- The display mode (with or without DAM)
- The path to the images
- The path to the HTML template to customize it
- The adgallery effect
In the second flexform tab :
You can specify :
- The size of the thumbs of the browser (in typoscript cImage syntax)
- The size of the full thumb (in typoscript cImage syntax)
In the third flexform tab :
You can specify :
- The size of the animation (the size of the parent DIV)
- A path to a JS File (if you want to use another library than adgallery)
- Put the JS inclusion in the footer to optimize your page generation
- A path to a CSS file to customize the template
In this mode, you cannot specify informations for each images and the plugins juste display the image and his filename. If you want more powerfull display, install DAM and see the next part.
Using the extension with DAM¶
Just plug the plugins on a page :
Choose the “DAM directory” mode and choose the directory with the images :
This is the same mode as above but the plugins will retrieve datas from the DAM records.
If you have DAM category with specific images you can choose the “DAM category” mode :
Next you can choose it in the flexform to customize the adgallery display. This is an example of a typical image with link and description in the frontend:
Using the extension with “tt_news”¶
In order to dont add useless information, the database creation on tt_news is commented. You just have to edit the “ext_tables.sql” file and uncomment this line :
#
# Table structure for table 'tt_news'
#
#CREATE TABLE tt_news (
# tx_adgallery_gallery text
#);
Then you can choose an adgallery in your tt_news records :
You juste have to put the marker ###ADGALLERY_GLOBAL### in your tt_news template. You can also put it in the RTE content like this :
Known problems¶
If you have too many picture, the generation can be a little bit long the first time (just the time to put in cache)
