I’ve upgraded to v3 of the monoslideshow but can’t get it to work, can anyone help?

https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/nextgen-monoslideshow/

Hello,

I just fix it after half a day searching hard.
Everything take place in the file monoslideshow.php :

Line 55, replace :
add_action('parse_request', array(&$this, 'check_request'));
With :
add_action('parse_request', array(&$this, 'check_request'), 9);

Line 95, replace “check_request” method with :

function check_request( $wp ) {
	if(strstr($_SERVER["HTTP_REFERER"], "monoslideshow.swf")){
            require_once (dirname (__FILE__) . '/xml.php');
            exit();
      }
      else return;
    }

Have fun,

Get “Something Wrong, slideshow doesn’t contain any items” message

https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/nextgen-monoslideshow/

after last updates it stopped working – it shows the message “something went wrong – slideshow doesn`t contain any items” – you have also this problem also here: https://www.nextgen-gallery.com/?s=monoslideshow

Hi there. I got my own domain and tried to install monoslideshow. It doesnt work. I dont think that I got the wrong path in the monoslideshow directory, that should`nt be the problem. When I add the monoslideshow-shortcode to an article, it shows no images, no gallery, nothing. Is there anything I have to change in the html or at the SQL to make monoslideshow work on a not wordpress based blog. I have to admit, that I have no knowledge about html a.s.o., but Im willing to learn. ??
My access to internet is limited to a day o so per week, so dont wonder if I cant answer in the next few days!

I don’t know why but today i found that monoslideshow doesn’t work and i am getting this error: “error loading. Error #1088”.
Any help?
Thanks in advance

Since no one is getting answers and nothing has been done to this addon for over two year it seems like it’s sort of abandoned.

If it isn’t it would be really nice to know how to get the monoslideshow to be the default slideshow viewer for NextGen Gallery since it’s an option in this plugins settings.

It would be really nice if Alex Rabe took some time and decided if he want to update this plugin so it works for those of us that have bought the monoslidshow and are using NextGen Gallery or atleast tell us that he has abandoned this plugin.

If Alex (or someone else) solved the problems with this plugin I would gladly donate (as I’m told to do in the administration of the gallery). But since I’ve already payed for monoslideshow and it won’t work as deafult slideshow for NextGen Gallry I consider dropping the gallery in favour for only using the monoslideshow.

Hope to get an answer pretty soon.

Regards Michael.

Maybe I am just missing it but does the NextGEN Gallery have a way to add an actual slideshow to their gallery without using Monoslideshow? We are avoiding Flash based (SWF) programming since it doesn’t play well with Apple. Thanks!

https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/nextgen-monoslideshow/

Upon Upgrading to WordPress 3.3.2 my Monoslideshow plugin has stopped working. Allthat appears is a blank space where the show should appear and the text…
“The Flash Player and a browser with javascript support are needed.”

I’ve Googled the problem and others are having the problem as well…although it appears that I’m the first to bring it up here.

Hope you can fix the problem fast!!!

Thanks!!

Please add the ability to change the wmode parameter for the flash code in the options menu. I use this plugin on almost every theme I develop and have to change the wmode to transparent after every update that is released.

https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/nextgen-monoslideshow/

It would be nice if the parameters for the shortcode were documented.

https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/nextgen-monoslideshow/

I’m discovering Nextgen and I love it. Thanks for it, Alex.
However, I’m pasting here below my (last) post and reply from the Monoslideshow forum (on their website).
Now I have given up but I really think you should inform us more about the limitations of this plugin, Alex. Limitations and/or difficulties for people who are not greatly skilled in coding (like me). It’s not like it was free.
Finally I’m using Scroll Gallery (and very happy with it) but I wasted 25$ yeaterday (+ so many hours !). Really annoys me !

The following post are from here –> https://www.monoslideshow.com/forum/comments.php?DiscussionID=63/
My post (yesterday)

This is a great looking plugin ! And the customization system with the demo is great too ! However, I’m mainly a graphist and not very knowledgeable in coding and there are a few things missing which to me are rather essential. Because of those, unfotunately, Monoslideshow doesn’t suit the needs of my present clients although they very much like the look of it. Isn’t that sad ?
The environment I work with is WordPress. I tested Monoslideshow with Nextgen.

So here are my very hopeful suggestions (the ones I personally find essential) :

Taking image width/height proportions into account (as it is now, it’s really annoying for portrait images). I managed to get around it with reworking my portrait images so they lay on a well sized background but it’s definitely not a suitable solution when you have lots of images to show or when your clients (that’s my case) are meant to enter their images themselves – I can’t ask them to do that !
Possibility to link images to their source when clicked (or right cliced), Itwould open the original image in a new window OR ELSE add a download button within the control bar…
Before I bought the plugin yesterday, I checked this forum post –> https://www.monoslideshow.com/forum/discussion/425/can-i-add-links-to-each-image-in-the-slide-show/#Item_2 I trusted that it would work but I got stuck and learnt still through the fourm that the manual is not really meant for the WordPress/Nextgen environment, so I must say I felt a little cheated…
Possibility to enter HTML in image description, especially for links (like a link to a photographer’s web page, for instance)

I really hope those improvements can be made some day because it’s such a great plugin apart from those !
Also, It’d be nice to clearly announce those limitations before people buy the plugin, both on the Monoslideshow website and on the plugin WordPress page.

The guy called Jarredja’s reply (this morning)

Except for the portrait issue, your issues all lie in the monoslideshow-nextgen plugin ( written by another author ) not monoslideshow itself. If you can get the php correct to write the proper XML it will all work as if you had actually written the XML file. Monoslideshow is not at fault here( except for the portrait issue ).

Edit: the HTML link in the text is another limitation of monoslideshow. The link can be applied to the image though just not with the current nextgen plugin.

https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/nextgen-monoslideshow/

I think one or two people have already successfully done this, I’d like to make the images clickable so they display in a window the full size source image.

https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/nextgen-monoslideshow/

is there anyway to pass multiple galleries to the plugin?

https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/nextgen-monoslideshow/

Had a look to the Demopage and decided to buy it for it look very nice. But by chance I tried out this page on an IPad as well as on my IPhone and did not see anything but the error message that I need a flash player.
Did I something wrong or is monoslideshow not working on apple devices?
Any hint welcome before I spent money on it… ??
Thanks
Udo

It is possible to disable the Break-Button, so that visitors see only the picture-description an can not breal the slideshow? If yes – how can I do it?

Many thanks ..
Joesch

https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/nextgen-monoslideshow/

Is it possible on page to have text wrap around the slide show? For example:

——————- Text Text Text
………………| Text Text Text
………………| Text Text Text
………………| Text Text Text
——————- Text Text Text
Text Text Text Text Text Text …

Many tahnks …

Is there a way to get the monoslideshow centered?

currently the url is – https://luxetravel.wpengine.com/hotels-and-resorts/triple-creek-ranch-2/photos/

Would love to be able to center it so the padding/margin is equal on both sides.

thanks!

https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/nextgen-monoslideshow/

I’m looking to keep the layout that the sparkles preset offers (photo icons beneath the primary image) but remove the sparkly effect that comes with it.

Any ideas on how to do it?

Thanks ??

https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/nextgen-monoslideshow/

I’m trying to have different KenBurns effects for certain images, so I defined my own preset.xml file. But I can’t find the proper place for <image></image> definitions. I think they belong in the <content></content> section, but when I put an <image> tag in there, I get a text error message (I think it’s a 1085 error).

It also isn’t apparent what URL should be used as the source=”” field. The entire URL, only the filename, the gallery/filename…?

https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/nextgen-monoslideshow/

It would be comforting if the author would add this plugin to his page of supported plugins. I find that MonoSlideshow adds the prettiness that I need.

I installed Monoslideshow as an extension of NextGen Gallery in a new WordPress site (3.1.2).

My problem : i respect the syntax [monoslideshow id=1 w=450 h=350] in my post but the image size is not respected at https://www.edelo.net/envision/?p=576

In the following three examples the images size is always the same (960×440) whatever the syntax :
– [monoslideshow id=1 w=450 h=350]
– [monoslideshow id=2 preset=’edelo’] (with fullscreen)
– [monoslideshow id=3 w=200 h=200] (with small images)
The 3 galleries are https://www.edelo.net/envision/wp-content/gallery/

It is just a little better if i add the following custom css :
.slideshow{
width: 100%;
}

Thanks by advance for your help

I cant get it to work in my post with the current version of wordpress! Is there going to be an update? I just bought it! :{]

Since I wanted to use a custom XML file with Monoslideshow but I didn’t like to write [monoslideshow id=[ID] preset=’PRESET_FILE_NAME’] for each slideshow, I have made a very small customization to the plugin; starting from line 216 I have replaced all the HTML code with the statements <OPTION>…</OPTION> with this very short and simple PHP code:

<select size="1" name="monoslideshow[preset]">
<option value="none" <?php selected('none', $this->options['preset']); ?> ><?php _e('None', 'monoss'); ?></option>
<?php
     $cPresetsFolder = WP_PLUGIN_DIR . '/'
          . str_replace(basename( __FILE__), "", plugin_basename(__FILE__)) . "presets";
     $fHandler = opendir($cPresetsFolder);
     $cFile = readdir($fHandler);
     while (($cFile = readdir($fHandler)) !== false) {
          if (($cFile != ".") && ($cFile != "..") && (strrpos($cFile, ".xml") !== false)) {
               $cFile = str_ireplace(".xml", "", $cFile);
               echo("<option value=\"" . $cFile . "\" "
                    . selected($cFile, $this->options['preset']) . ">"
                    . __($cFile, 'monoss') . "</option>\n");
          }
     }
     closedir($fHandler);
?>
</select>

I’ve tested it and it’s working. Now when I add a custom preset to the folder wp-content/plugins/nextgen-monoslideshow/presets I can choose it from the options panel and set it as the default style.

I think that it’s very handy not to have to change each tag for each customized slideshow, so I’d like to propose to the developer of this plugin to use this code or develop a similar thing because IMHO this is a handy feature.

Hi everybody,

It’s been a while I’ve trying to find a way to add links to images in wordpress with this plugin.

So far, I managed to do the following:

1. installed the nextgen custom fields plugin
2. created a custom field called “Image links to”
3. Added a specific info to each picture, in this case a URL (although the field is text only)

Much of it I found here: https://www.hackingethics.com/blog/2010/08/02/how-to-add-custom-fields-in-nextgen-gallery-to-give-link-on-images-of-posts-or-page/

So, my question is: now that I have this dynamic information somewhere, how to I take it to my xml.php in the monoslideshow plugin?

I tried to add the following, between the blank lines, but with no success:

if (is_array ($pictures)){
	foreach ($pictures as $picture) {
        $description = htmlspecialchars ( strip_tags( stripslashes( nggGallery::i18n($picture->description) ) ) , ENT_QUOTES );
        if (!empty($picture->alttext))
            $title = stripslashes( htmlspecialchars (nggGallery::i18n($picture->alttext) , ENT_QUOTES) );
        else
            $title = $picture->filename;

            $link = $image->ngg_custom_fields["Image links to"];

        $path = $siteurl . '/' . $picture->path . '/' . $picture->filename;
        $thumbnail = $siteurl . '/' . $picture->path . '/thumbs/thumbs_' . $picture->filename;
        echo "\t\t<image id='$picture->pid' source='$path' title='$title' link='$link' description='$description' thumbnail='$thumbnail' />\n";
	}
}

I really think this is the way to go, since if I add a static adress like:

$link ='https://www.google.com'

It will indeed take me to google but from every image. I need to know what string to use so that the xml.php gets the right information – which by the way I don’t know where it comes from, if it’s a file in the nextgen gallery plugin or what…

I guess it’s just a last step to get this thing done.

Ah, the gallery is here: https://fot.lucascorato.com/category/360

Anybody?

Thanks for your time.

Hi,
I am getting this error ‘No images found in .XML-file.’ and I have tried everything I can think of to fix it and I even contacted the Monoslideshow author. His reply was:

If I look at the source of that page, I see that the data file that Monoslideshow tries to load is pointed to https://susanmartell.com/_tst/index.php

But this page doesn’t provide a data file, only the main WordPress page. I haven’t made the Monoslideshow WordPress plugin, so I don’t know how to change this. Maybe contact the author of the Monoslideshow WordPress plugin?

I have searched everywhere for a clue but even though the topic has been brough up, there is not a solution out there….

Could you please provide one?

Thank you, Dennis

Hi,

As many here, I have just bought the monoslideshow hoping to use it with the fantastic nextGEN plugin.

With several workarounds, I have been able to solve almost all my problems and adapt it to my specific necessities, since one of the great merits of this puglin is flexibility, if you know what you’re doing, though.

One thing I still can’t understand is that vertical images on a horizontal stage are always cropped. I mean: I want to have vertical and horizontal images on a let’s say 1000 x 600px area on my site, but the vertical images are always stretched to fill everything horizontally.

I was thinking of adding a black space to the sides of those images so that they become a horizontal file, but it’s extra work I don’t think it’s useful.

Maybe I should also write this to monoslideshow, but I think you can also give me a solution for this.

You can see it here: https://fot.lucascorato.com/category/teste/

But the effect I really want is this: https://fot.lucascorato.com/category/portfolio/ acocmplished with simpleviewer (I’m still trying to decide which to use)

Thanks a lot!

is there a way to have a URL link on each image?

thanks
