Uff, so you’re talking about caching by the browser or the server? If you’re talking about server caching, I would suggest you use WP Supercache, it works with this plugin.

Thanks,

Hi,
thanks for the (very technical) suggestions.

Could you please explain what would be the benefit of having a more permanent content link – currently, the link to the image as it is opened in the lightbox is permanent – for example this link is permanently set to this particular image, across all refreshes and even plugin updates.

If you want the actual image to be persistent, what is the reason for that? Currently, I would consider that a bug, because the image could then be viewed using this link even after a gallery has been removed from the webpage – I consider that to be a security issue.

With that said, I try to be open to suggestions if there are good arguments supporting them, so please go ahead and try to convince me ??

Thanks,
Marek Dědi?

Hi,
thanks for the feedback.

I’ve looked at your webpage and unfortunately, there is nothing I can do with it.

The problem is with something called z-index – a number specifying, which parts of the page should be drawn over what – higher number is drawn over lower number.

The overlay in this plugin has z-index=10002. Your header has z-index=99999, so it’s over the plugin. But, the WordPress admin header (the gray bar for on the top for logged-in users) has also 99999, so if we raised the z-index of the plugin it would draw over the admin header as well, which I don’t want. So I cannot fix it in the plugin.

Solution for your webpage: Use custom CSS and set

#main-header {
z-index: 10000
}

so it’s something more reasonable.

Thanks,

Hi,
thanks. There is currently no option to display photos in a carousel.

i suppose you could use https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/wp-carousel-free/ to achieve this with the content carousel option, but I haven’t tried this.

This may be a feature in which we are interested in the future, but currently, you are the first person to ask for it.

Thanks,
Marek Dědi?

Well I am a newbie to frontend, backend and WordPress at the same time… ??

Hi,
thanks.

As for the downloading, that is planned, but it is in the “would be nice some day” bucket instead of the “needs to have this” bucket ?? See tracking issue: https://github.com/skaut/skaut-google-drive-gallery/issues/81
PRs welcome.

Zooming isn’t something we have explored yet, could you elaborate on what kind of gallery would need this as a core functionality?

Thanks,
Marek Dědi?

Closing for inactivity – continued via e-mail.

Hi,

we’ve previously thought about some options for filtering, but so far, I am not convinced it is a feature worth adding. You should create a directory for the plugin and put your photos there. If you are willing to rename them, then putting them in another dir shouldn’t be such an issue.

Thanks for the suggestion,
Marek

Hi,
there is, but it is not (yet) well documented, because with Gutenberg (the new editor), there is also a nice UI for it.

If you are not using Gutenberg, then you can do it precisely how you did it, only you need to know the right argument names.

Take a look at here: https://github.com/skaut/skaut-google-drive-gallery/blob/master/plugin/class-options.php

the argument names are the same as the variable names in the code – that is, for example, “page_autoload” does, what you want.

So:
[sgdg path=”Folder name” page_autoload=false dir_tile_size=”42em” grid_spacing=”42″]

This feature is there mainly as an afterthought though and I have to be honest that I didn’t test it in a while – I am using Gutenberg everywhere now and not shortcodes…

Hi,
no, there is currently no way to do this. What would be your use case for this? When I don’t want some images in the gallery, I don’t put them there ??

Thanks,
Marek Dědi?

Thank you very much.

Maybe I could try to add a warning about this in the future.

Hi,
I’m looking over your website and something seems horribly wrong with the plugin.

Could you please tell me if the photos in the actual folders match what should be there? That is, is the problem truly only with the thumbnails?

If you didn’t already, could you please try reuploading the files to Google Drive – together with recreating the folder structure.

If this doesn’t work, would it be ok for you to share the folders with me on google drive? – I could try to replicate the problem on my webpage to see if it is there as well… Read access would suffice to do that. My address is [email protected]

Thanks, hope to get to the bottom of this,
Marek

Aha, a? te? se mi to refreshovalo a v?iml jsem si, ?e je problém vy?e?en.

Ahoj,
pokud byla chyba 404, tak bych zkusil plugin p?einstalovat.
Postup nastavení je trochu zastaraly, Google to po?ád mění a my to nestíháme v?dy sledovat.
Pokud je problém s mod_security, doporu?uji kontaktovat hosting, ktery m??e plugin p?idat do whitelistu.

Ahoj,
děkujeme za zpětnou vazbu. Kdybychom znali, co ti to hlásí, t?eba bychom uměli i poradit ?? .
