Hi Sean, this looks great!

One question, is there an auto play function on the galleries? That is the decision maker for me at the moment!

ThanksJulian

Not right now Julian, but it is high on my to do list.

Hello Sean

This looks like it will be an excellent Website to use.

Just a quick comment about when I entered the Promo code the "Update Cart" wouldn´t change to include the discount,it doesn´t bother me as I think its reasonably priced anyway,its just incase you have other people mentioning it.

RegardsJames

Hi Jimmy, It's working now. I ended up deleting the code and reentering it to get it to work.

Sean, this sounds like what I've been looking for and I plan on downloading it shortly. Two quick questions: do I need to purchase separate downloads for my mac notebook and my pc desktop, and what do I save as a backup (or can I buy a disk)?

Thanks,

–Bob

Bob, you can use it on both. The download is a Zip file, so just copy it to an archive location.

Hi Sean,I live outside of UK, I should subject not to apply for VAT?

Is the LRB Exhibition run on my Mac OSx 10.4.11

ThanksPaul

And I don't live in the UK either, Paul. If you live in Europe, then you are subject to VAT, unless you have a business registered with a VAT number. I am VAT Registered, therefore I have to charge VAT and quote prices that are VAT exclusive for that reason.

hi Sean

Does LRB Exhibition allow to see caption details for each photo to be seen — also will their room to have small thunbnails of "upcoming" images (with the single large image on display)?

cheers

Hi Sean,

wrt to LRB Exhibition, is there a way to have the Identity Plate above the flash so it does not intrude into the picture galleries? (Similar to the way the copyright information falls below the flash portion of the site). Another example is that your site, Sean McCormack identity plate does not fall atop of your gallery in LRB Portfolio.

If there is no easy way, can you point me to the file within the engine directory and perhaps the right location to add either an image or a direct text to allow this to happen?

Hi Sean,

Just putting together my website using your RLB Exhibition plug in. I'm loving it so far, but I have a couple of questions. How can I make the background black rather than the gray gradient? And in the Blank page, how can I add paragraphs?

Kind regards
Milana

Hi Sean, i first bought Lrb Portfolio, im very happy with it (www.lephotograf.com)
and i bought LRB exhibition because i like the way to change image by image .
I hope it will possible in Portfolio one day ?

But i have 2 little problems

First : i would like to change the narrow style... When i try to export my own narrow png in the source file they never appear in lightroom .

Second :
What can i do to have the title identity over (below) my images, like in LRB Portfolio...
In the background ... I prefer image without text ...

I hope u understand my poor english, im from France !

Can u help me to resolve my problems ?

THXS Sean and congratulations for your great job

Hi Sean,
I am having an issue with Exhibition 1.2. I am trying to add a 3rd gallery but when I do it and go to the gallery, i get the message:
"You have fewer images selected than the total number required by Gallery. Please select more images, or your final output will render incorrectly"
It gives a slide show, but it is two images too early. And when viewing it there are no gallery links. Fucks the whole thing up, this gallery is essential to my needs.
Basically I cant get the 3rd gallery working. I've tried selecting every image before going to "WEB" but that did not work. It gives me that message. I need a third and forth gallery, do you know what might be the issue??

I'm considering LRB Exhibition. What is the purchase price in U.S. dollars?

Many thanks!

Andy

hi sean

i have just bought LRB Exhibition after being greatly pleased with using your LRB Portfolio template for my website. Im still learning with it but i do have a question! Do i have to create a new target collection in Lightroom exclusively for Exhibition or do i use the same collection as i use for Portfolio website?!
cheers for any info.

Sean,
I'm loving the Exhibition plugin. It feels pretty complete for me so far. You can see my sight at www.bwhitlockphoto.com
I'd like to add two suggestions I have:
1) Ability to include a favicon. I'm not sure how this could be done on the user end, but it would really add to the professionalism of how the website appears when open in a browser.
2)Ability to have the identity plate show up only on certain galleries, or maybe just not on the home screen (as I'm wanting to do). I added my logo on the main image for the Home screen so it would be larger, but would like the identity plate on the top across the rest of the images. Though, if I turned it on, it would be redundant on the home screen. Dilemmas...

I'm also having problems inserting my google analytics code. I'm copying it just as GA has it, pasting it into LR, but a short bit of code is actually DISPLAYED on my website. Bizarre.

Thanks for making such a great plugin!
Ben Whitlock

Hello, does anybody know how can i do to have the identity plate outside the picture in LRB Exhibition ????
I would like to put it over (upper, above) the image ...

Thanks

Jérôme from Paris

Hello Sean, I'm really enjoying Exhibition but I am a bit confused about the difference between Portfolio and Exhibition- they seem to serve the same purpose but have different functionality? Anyway using Exhibition I have a couple of 'wants' - is it possible to arrange the menu items in the order I would like and could you add image frame functionality?

I just purchased LRB Exhibition yesaterday and would like to have info on changing the look of the control arrows.

Thanks

Hey Sean I purchased LR exhibition and love it. Saved m4e some bucks an I am grateful you can see my site here http://arclightstudios.net/.My question though is when I test the comment and mail to on the contact page I get this Warning: mail() [function.mail]: SMTP server response: 451 See http://pobox.com/~djb/docs/smtplf.html. in D:\Hosting\6021212\html\mail.php on line 60
Can't send email to simon.mott@arclightstudios.net

Is there any way you can point me in the direction as to what I am doing wrong?

Hello Sean. I like much of what I see on LRB Exhibition, but am wondering if it's possible to put the identity plate above the homepage photo rather than on the photo itself?

Thanks

Hi Sean,

I just finished updating my site and have uploaded- several times and there is no change even after refreshing my browser (firefox). Just to be sure, I deleted the lrbexhibition web engine and downloaded a fresh version but still no updated site.

Is there something I need to check? I have been uploading the same way since I first added the plugin. It just seems odd. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Sean,

This is wonderful. Works great! So simple! In fact, i was making it too complicated for awhile....but it works like a charm!

You are the man!

Hi Sean, thank you for this really great tool - see my page www.christofhauser.ch. I have just one problem: google cannot find my page. Is there something I can do? Thank you for help. Chris

Hi Sean, I am having small troubles with exhibition and lightroom 4. The gallery doesnt update in the LR4 window when I make changes to any of the options. As a result, I have to click out of web galleries and back again to see changes. This is fine for now, but every time I go to web galleries LR4 opens internet explorer to download a script file.

Is it currently compatible with LR4? Your blog here says 2 and 3, but the adobe site says 2,3 and 4.

And 2nd question, is there, or will there be an option to change the top margin of the slideshow images? This way the header can avoid overlapping images that are cropped tight at the top. Currently I do this after I export the gallery in the html file.

Thanks, you have a really great product here by the way, well done!

Julian.

Hi Bruce, It may be possible to have a caption appear in a future verison.

The way the numbers work can't currently apply to thumbnails. I intend that design for a future plugin, but no this one.

Is there a way to adjust the overall aspect ratio of the template? I shoot 6×7 and would like my images to properly fill the template without cropping the images.

Also, I only want one gallery, and I'd like it to load as the first page. In other words, when people go to my site, they would see the ID plate, the first image in the gallery, "About" and "Contact" at the bottom, and the right arrow key to advance to the next image. Is there anyway to make that happen with simple clicks or will I have to get inside and rewrite the HTML code?

Thanks,

Gary

Hi Gary,Having the first page as a gallery is on the list for 1.2. 1.1 is ready to go right now. (waiting on testers final reports)Having a different aspect ratio choices would actually require a lot of rewriting internally (i.e. to make it a choice), because the image sizes constrain each other. Even if you do go for it yourself you'll be limited to 700px wide with the 600px max height. In the CSS and the jQuery, change all 900's to 700's in the exported files and it should work. In this case it's probably easier to work on the exported files (because Lua is so easy to break).Rename the exported gallery1.html to index.html and then remove the a href for gallery1 on the 3 pages (index.html, about.html and contact.html).

I'll look at ratios again, because 4:3 is also a popular ratio.

Sean,New Exhibition site has been up for a week. My google analytics has shown no traffic. I looked at the source code and compared it to my LRB Portfolio code and it seems that there is an extra space created before the closing quote ("ua-xxxx-1 "). I corrected this on my site and I will let you know what happens, but that is the only item different between LRBE and LRBP that I could see. Gotta have my analytics. Paul

Paul, I hate to say this, but that's probably from your cutting and pasting of the ID. The code in both galleries is identical.

Portfolio codetry { var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker("$model.nonCSS.Analytics"); pageTracker._trackPageview(); } catch(err) {}

Exhibition codetry { var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker("$model.nonCSS.Analytics"); pageTracker._trackPageview(); } catch(err) {}

Sean,

This is a fantastic idea, I am VERY happy with the result! Here are my 2cents and wish list:

1. In Chrome, the line breaks in the about page are not respected.2. In future versions it would be nice to be able to change the order in the menu… For example, start with about, then galleries and finally contact.3. In the contact page,it would be nice to be able to add some text, as well as change the default thank you for sending e-mail page.

Once again, thanks for the fantastic work! My site is http://www.lubezky.com

Hi Sergio

1. I'll have a look at this.

2. 1.1 can put the galleries first, beyond that we're into something that requires thousands of lines of code, even then it might not work well. There's no easy way to create a sort order.

3.If I remove the ':' from Own Text field that would do it.3b. Now that's an idea I've never had suggested before. Might be easier said that done, because getting lua working inside PHP is painful. I've done it before, so hopefully a similar mechanism will work again.

Any changes won't make 1.1 though, which is ready to go apart from the fact that I'm away next week and can be there to support it if something goes wrong.

Thanks for the prompt response Sean!

I just noticed another little thing, probably fixed in 1.1 but just to be sure:

Regarding the issue with the little numbers under the galleries, please note that on all galleries they are correctly placed with a space under the photo… However in gallery 5 they are not. The numbers appear very close to the broder of the frame. Take a llok at my website – http://www.lubezky.com – as example.

Thank you for your help and pelase feel free to delete this comment – only meant to help, and it it has been taken care for, no need to keep it!

Saludos!Sergio

Fixed 2 days after 1.0 was launched. It think it was even listed in the fixes so far post about a week later. Beta testers have been slow in responding and I've been away/am going away.

What is the main difference between Exhibition and LRB Portfolio?I'm no technical expert and to my untrained eyes it looks like they do approximately the same thing..??So I am confused which one to buy.Thanks in advance for your answer.Michaelbs

Yes, they both create websites.

But they've entirely different designs and gallery engines. Not to mention being written quite differently under the hood.

I can't really help you decide, because I can't preempt your tastes or needs.

Hi Sean,

Great job with this gallery. I loved the results of LRB Portfolio with my work, especially it's ease-of-use… and this looks even better. I'll be putting on my site this weekend.

Sean, I suspected as much, but certainly wanted to bring it up…just in case. OBTW G.A. works fine now.

It's just the little things.

Thanks again for the great support.

Hi Sean

I cant get the contact me page to work. It says "can't send email to" and under that lists the email address that you enter into the "your email address" section. I know its just something stupid I'm doing in the set up, but cant figure it out!

Thanks

Ronan

Hi Sean,

Would it be possible to make the gallery content on the middle of the page (in height) instead of on the top of the page?

Best regards,Mads

I've been looking at 1.1 so long I can't remember what's in 1.0, but 1.1 has a slider called Top that lets you change the page position.

Hi Sean,

Maybe it's already mentioned before but it seems that the 'alt' text is not working. Whatever I choose for title in Lightroom the code shows only the filename.

Regards, Peter

Hi Peter, I approved your other comment too, but Blogger gave an error and now it's gone

Cutoff for 1.1 bugs was 2 weeks ago. Alt isn't used strictly because you can't hover over the image. I will change it in 1.2 for SEO though.

Re: the meta generator, the number isn't really important, it's more that the name is there.

Sean. I didn't know about the cutoff, I was no beta tester;-)

ALT can be helpful for SEO so that’s good news for 1.2.

For the meta generator I guessed it would be handy for you when you have to review somebody's site.

Thanks for your great work!

Regards,Peter

It's more for advertising But yes it is handy for troubleshooting.

Did an SEO course this week, so will add some of the features from that.

Hi Sean

How can we download 1.1 I went to the link on the email after purchasing 1.0 but it downloads the same file.

Also still can't figure out how to get email in the contact section to function?

Thanks

Ronan

Sean, I've already downloaded 1.1 and I'm enjoying it even more than 1.0, which is a lot….even if you haven't come up with an idea for captions yet. However, this question: Do I have to have an image on Blank Page or About page? I'd like to have a blank page with text on it, but when I empty the Image on Blank Page field for example I get an error page: "…\Web Galleries\LRB_Exhibition.lrwebengine\blank.html:7: bad argument #1 to 'floor' (number expected, got string)"==Bob
