Hi there,
I think i have posted somewhere in this forum startup guides..but anyways here's some info again..
1) Add a "test" niche for example from the Niches section.
2) go grab from some sponsor some FHGs along with description, and go and import them in the "Static Galleries" section, since each gallery will have its own description.
3) Go then and create your first template at "Templates->Add Template" admin control. Just give it a "test name", look through the options you have there for some settings, but you don't need to touch anything as a start..
4) Once you created the template, you are taken to a "Edit Template" screen, where you can edit again the template settings, and most importantly on bottom of the page you have place to put the template design/html. As a start, just do a simple template, just to list your galleries. Put a variable like:
%%galleries,static,1-10,test%%
That will list 10 galleries from type static and from the test niche.
5) Once you save the template, you will get a linking instructions, consisting of two lines of php code. Copy those lines and paste them in a new document. Save that document as "test.php" and upload somewhere on your sites. Then point your browser to http://www.yoursite.com/test.php" or whereever you uploaded the test.php file, and if you did everything fine so far, you will see the galleries output.
So play a bit with more galleries, put some thumb galleries and etc.. and start designing your templates more qualfiied... _________________

hey there in static galleries you should import galleries with descriptions.
Like: URL|description or whatever your list is formatted.
The delimiter stands for the delimiter of the fiels of the import list. In the example above it is |
Let me know if you need more help.. _________________

i'm trying to make a fake tgp.
for examples sake say i want to have this gallery and i want a clickable thumb.it does not have a description attached to it
http://traffic.heidisexpecting.com/galleries/inthepink?nats=NTY4OjQ6NQ,0,0,0,68
1. which section should i put it under.
2. should i put a direct link to the thumb under one of the sections
3. where can i view the fruits of my labour
I'm really sorry i don't mean to be obtuse,but i dont get how it works at all,it's quite upsetting.

Well, you didn't told me what you want to do
Okay, to do what you want, do like:
1) Niches->Add , add yourself a niche, because all the content is categorized by niches.
2) Thumb Galleries->Thumb Types , add yourself there a size type for the thumbs, so script knows to what size crop the thumbs for the galleries.
3) Thumbnailer->Thumbnail New, use the form there so add your galleries. Select your niche, select your thumb type and paste in the textarea the galleries urls, one per line, and finally click the submit button of the form.
4) Templates->Add , add yourself a template where content will be output. Put some name for the template, hit add, then at the 2nd screen scroll down to the big yellow texarea and put a variable like: %%galleries,thumb,88x88,1-10,1x10,niche%% where you will replace the "88x88" with the thumb size you have added the gals in and same for the "niche" parameter. As explained in the info you will find on that page, that variable will output 10 galleries from specified niche and size 88x88 in a table with 1 row and 10 thumbs per row.
Then submit the form.
5) after you save your template, you will be displayed 2 linking codes along with instructions. So copy & paste them in a new document, save it with somename.php , and upload somewhere on your site. Then point your browser there and you will see your results.. _________________

you can do that with css. If you go to edit the template, you will notice at the settings there are CSS class fields for all the things, so just fill in some name for the thumb galleries class, and then define that css class in your stylesheet and put your settings there. This way you have total control over all content outputed by SO.
For example i would go in the template settings and put css class "kaktus" for the thumb galleries. Then in my css stylesheet or directly in the template code below, i will just put
.kaktus {align:center} _________________

again but slower,please remeber i'm an idiot.you must be banging your head against your keyboard by now,but most of this is alien to me.sorry!
currently all i have in the box is this
%%galleries,thumb,133x200,1-10,1x10,test%%
i've named my gallery css class as beaver so i'm assuming it'll look like this
.beaver {align:center} as per your example
you say paste it into the box when i do it just shows up as text,what steps have i missed,getting,or just plain not understanding
thanks |

In "Galleries Links CSS Class:" field of the edit template settings, yes, enter a css class. You named it "beaver"
Then in your template code add like:
<style>
.beaver{align:center}
</style>
before the %%galleries.... variable..
thats should work.. _________________

</style>
%%galleries,thumb,133x200,1-10,1x10,test%%
it doesn't affect it in the slightest,or am i supposed to add it to the html,if so where? |

well, try something else.
Since each td tag of the table is outputed with class "sothumbtd"
make your template look like:
<style>
.sothumbtd {align:center}
</style>
%%galleries,thumb,133x200,1-10,1x10,test%%
thats should work.. _________________

well, i looked at the sample page you gave me and you get the thumb in the left, because your whole table isn't centered. So i just surrounded the %%galleries.. variable in center tag.. _________________
