I have issue in this plugin
-
Hi
When I complete every thing with integration, I have create album but the plugin open the first image only. I doesn’t load any other images.
Please help to fix

When next update is coming go for fixing all these issues
These are not “issues” that I have to fix.
Some of these cannot be fixed, e.g. Google will always give you URLs that expire in 30 minutes. If you cache them, your site will break. This isn’t a Photonic limitation – it is a Google limitation. If you want to use caching, use a different source like Flickr. Alternatively, in Photonic there is a capability to use a JS load mode. You can use that if you want to continue using caching. The JS load mode will not work for slideshows – it only works for regular galleries.
For lazy-loading, you have to check the configuration of your lazy-loading plugin and exclude Photonic’s galleries from it. If it is a decent plugin, it should allow you to exclude specific galleries. Why should lazy-loading be deactivated for Photonic? Lazy-loading only works when you know the sizes of your images beforehand – in this case, the sizes of your images are not known, hence you cannot apply lazy-loading in an unfiltered manner.
I have disable caching and lazy load and all other plugins now, also I try to work one gallery load in JS and the other load PHP to test, the two albums doesn’t work
You can check now the page
Right now I don’t see Photonic on your page. Let me know if you still need me to troubleshoot this.
Photonic can’t load images from Flickr or Google photos or WordPress media library, the same issue still exist
If you have plugin conflicts, those conflicts have to be resolved. I pointed out several in your case, such as caching (with Google Photos), lazy-loading introduced by more than 1 plugin, etc.
Not all plugins might be conflicting with your setup – if you have multiple plugins, the probability of conflicts between plugins increases, but it is always possible to find plugins with no conflicts in your current setup. I am glad that you have found a plugin that is currently working for you!
On the same day that you posted this topic, another user posted a topic, which was resolved in a few minutes – that user had no conflicts. Photonic is a very easy plugin to work with – you just need to understand technical limitations of doing things a certain way on your own site. Note that there are 2 parts to Photonic: first, to fetch the images from a remote source like Google or Flickr or SmugMug (which it is doing perfectly on your site), and second, to display those images in a gallery layout (where it is running into conflicts with other plugins on your site).
More than 75% of the support queries for Photonic involve sites with no known conflicts. Of the remaining 25%, most conflicts are very easy to solve, and fall in one of these categories:
- Lazy loading – Here, a different plugin replaces Photonic’s images with dummy images but fails to replace them with the right image – the simplest fix here is to either disable the lazy loading plugin, or configure it to exclude Photonic.
- Caching – If you are caching Google Photos, you will run into issues. You can bypass this within Photonic itself, by making use of the JS load mode as I have outlined in a previous response to you. This conflict is in fact so common that I even have it listed under the FAQ section for the plugin.
- Multiple lightbox scripts – Here, when you click on a photo, another lightbox script might capture the click, and hijack Photonic’s lightbox. This is also fairly easy to solve and involves deactivating the other lightbox, or configuring it to exclude Photonic’s galleries. Note that Photonic’s lightbox can be used for non-Photonic images, if you wish.
- CSS conflicts – Here, a different plugin might have CSS that conflicts with Photonic. Again, this is fairly easy to solve: I either will provide you with some CSS to override this, or suggest that you use a different lightbox, if the conflict is in the lightbox. Note that Photonic is bundled with 15 separate lightbox scripts – you can easily pick one that is not conflicting with other files on your site.
Very rarely are conflicts in other categories.
At this point of time, I don’t see Photonic active on your site. If you wish to use it, let me know. I will try to work with you to get it resolved. I am very active on the support forum, and I respond to every support query, so if you want help with the plugin, you just have to ask.
