Please test and report any issues on RC2 in this post. I will try to release the full version as soon as possible.
One question i have is the size of the download images.
The full res image i uploaded to the gallery was 9.59 MB but when i download the image it was 5.59 MB and not the full res.
Is this tied to the quality setting in the gallery or is there some other process that is down sampling my images? Is it even possible to make it so the users can download the full resolution file?
Second any idea about whether or not we would implement a counter on the promotions so that they would not be spammed by a user to get more and more images free with different purchases?
I will continue to Test the RC2 version and give anymore feedback as i come across it.
@Damian do you mind giving me access to your test server? webmaster@xparkmedia.com.
Additionally on the image download full resolution i have the digital download set at 1000×1000 in the cart but the images are of a different resolution ex 4678×2568
I also have the “Allow users to download original image if image size selected is not available.” selected.
Therefore it should know that the image is not 1000×1000 and then present the original image for download?
Another thing i have seen in RC2 is i think the option to remove sepia, black and white from the slideshow is is missing so it cant be removed if you dont want to offer the users a choice of how the color of the image is purchased.
Also there is no way to select a finish when adding an image to the cart.
Finally the formatting of the headings in the cart and the checkout seem to overlap. Ex Qty and size over lap and unit price, subtotal, delete run together.
On the page to enter your information for checkout via email or if 0.00 purchased the city, state, zip are not formatted correctly.
Retract my statement on the finishes, they do work, I had not added them to the price list yet.
download the latest update. Bugs fixed and color filter options added. You will need to downgrade and upgrade for changes to take pace.
Just a few days for full release.
Using Firefox In the new version of RC2 none of the thumnails or images are viewable in the private gallery. Just have small empty white boxes with the image file name in them. If you click on that it just opens a lightbox window with the message image failed to load.
Tried to then rescan the folder but get error ”
Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in /home/content/06/9217206/html/wp-includes/media.php on line 435″
Then deleted the gallery, recreated a new one and uploaded more images and got the same thing.
I tried IE 8.0 and got similar reults but a box with a red X instead.
Forgot to mention i did a complete uninstall from the reset tab in the app, deleted the plugin from plugins and then reinstalled. so it shouldnt have anything to do with downgrading then reinstalling.
o see how difficult it would be to integrate password protected albums? What I would like to do is have my galleries be private but accessible for people that have a log in to a certain album which contains the galleries that concern them.
I think it’s great that you are releasing options for shipping as this is also a problem for me…Will the new shipping option be seperate to the price lists? This would also be good so I can just have one set of shipping prices that can apply across a few different price lists rather than the way it works now where the items ordered determine what shipping options appear.
