This content is updated periodically.

The flash didn’t work. I only see the message “The Flash Player and a browser with Javascript needed..”, but everything is installed and activated.
Make sure you have the following in your template. (It’s in the original WP header.php template, but if you’re creating your own, you may have forgotten to include it):

<?php wp_head(); ?>

That line would go in between your <HEAD> </HEAD> tags

When I try to activate the plugin I get the message : “Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.”
This problem could happened if you have a low memory_limit in your php environment and a lot of plugins installed. For a simple test deactivate all other plugins and try then to activate GRAND Flash Album Gallery again. Please check also if you have a minimum memory_limit of 16Mbyte (as much as possible).
I get the message “Fatal error: Allowed memory size of xxx bytes exhausted” or get the “Error: Exceed Memory limit.”. What does this means ?
This problem could happened if you have a low memory_limit in your php environment or you have a very large image (resolution, not size). The memory limit sets the maximum amount of memory in bytes that a script is allowed to allocate. You can either lower the resolution of your images or increase the PHP Memory limit (via ini_set, php.ini or htaccess). If you didn’t know how to do that, please contact your web hoster.
I get the error message: “Couldn’t load the Color XML file.Error #1088″
Make sure that all colors set properly on Skins page -> Skin options tab. Colors should be in HEX-format (without ‘#’ symbol from v0.40).
I get the error message: “Couldn’t load the Main XML file.Error #1090″
Check image names and titles if there are some special characters or quotes delete image or rename it.
When I open the archive/category page of my site… it will show the post but with this message :
The Flash Player and a browser with Javascript support are needed..
But if I open the post, it will shows the gallery perfectly
It’s because your theme use some function different from

<?php the_content('Read more'); ?>

to display post excerpt in index.php or archive.php or category.php. If you insert “more” (page breack) tag in post before shortcode, then flash will be only on individual page.

How to create a categories in flash album? I only have one category, which is the name of the gallery.
You can do it easily with FlAGallery button on editor panel, when you edit post. In trhe popup window hold down ‘Ctrl’ button and choose galleries left mouse button. Or just write gallery IDs separated by comma in “gid” attribute:

[flagallery gid=7,3,5,2 name="My Galleries"]

To display ALL galleries as categories:

[flagallery gid=all name="My Galleries"]
How can I set it to auto slideshow when open the page?
Download and activate skin with auto slideshow.
The gallery keeps loading without ever showing the images
You’ve probably changed site url, so flash think that images are on other domain. Just click Reset settings on Overview page. That will solve the problem.
ERROR: Couldn’t load the media file.Error #2036
Make sure that you have equal number of images in Manage Gallery and in ftp folder. Check if you have broken images.
How do I set a specific category as the first one that is displayed?
if you have three galleries and shortcode like:

[flagallery gid=3,1,2 name="Gallery"]

first gallery will be with ID=3, then ID=1, and then ID=2
if you have:

[flagallery gid=all name="Gallery" orderby=title order=ASC exclude=1]

it will display all galleries except ID=1 sorted by title of gallery.

[IOErrorEvent type="ioError" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 text="Error #2032"]
Probably you use some plugin that extend standard WordPress TinyMCE Editor. And it replace ( ” ) symbol in shortcode to ( “ ). Try remove all quotes from shortcode (album name without quotes shouldn’t consist spaces).
I get this error code: ERROR: IMG_5879.JPG : Invalid upload. Error Code : 1.
Error Code: 1. This mean that the uploaded file exceeds the upload_max_filesize directive in php.ini.
Check PHP Max Upload Size on Overview page.
When i install this plugin and go to add a gallary name, it gives an error that ‘directory wp-content/flagallery doesnot exists’
Create it manually with chmod 0755.
I only get the message on my page: “The Flash Player and a browser with Javascript needed..”
GRAND FlAGallery conflict with NextGen flash image rotator (JWPlayer). So don’t use it on the same page. JWPlayer somehow rewrite js code for my plugin…

    Hi.

    I have problem.
    I can’t see the gallery. Instead: “Couldn’t load the Color XML file.Error #1088″
    What should I do?

    Thank you.

  2. shazz says:

    Unfortunately I can’t see the gallery and I don’t get a message at all. What can I do to fix this?

    (BTW. the link is http://www.shazzlebee.nl/fotos )

    • Rattus says:

      Check, maybe you wrong write shortcode… ‘name’ attribute is requared. Example: [flagallery gid=GALLERY_IDs name="ALBUM_NAME"]
      Or, maybe FlAGallery conflict with some another plugin… I need a list of your plugins to check that. You can also try download and install Flash Album Gallery plugin again to be sure it was not damaged zip

  3. pirateshot says:

    Hey, I love your tool – but somehow it seems to have
    trouble with my other plugins..
    I am using NextGenGallery for an Introslideshow.
    Now I can not display the gallerys with the images I created
    with your tool, but instead it shows pictures of NextGen.
    :o(
    what could I do?

    • Rattus says:

      This is because NextGEN Gallery and FlAGallery use the same shortcode [album]
      I’ll fix that in new version of the plugin next week. But for now, you can edit “flash-album-gallery/lib/shortcodes.php”:
      Search ‘ album ‘ and Replace it with ‘ flagallery ‘. Then edit your post [flagallery gid=x name="ALBUM_NAME"]
      Note: You can insert more than one id [album gid=1,2,3,4,5 ] – this will be categories in the flash

  4. pirateshot says:

    Thank you for your quick answer. Unfortunaly its not working
    yet. I searched+replaced ALL “album” variables with “flagallery”
    in that shortcodes.php file..
    .. Maybe I should just wait for your update ;o))??

  5. pirateshot says:

    sorry – its working now :o))))))
    I was a little bit too quick and replaced too many parts..
    Now I replaced by hand the “album” parts and its working now..

    Have a great sunday and once again thank you!!!!!!!!!

  6. Ronnie says:

    This is a GREAT plug, and works great. Very easy to customize. Just a request for future updates; the text on the info a little bigger. Thanks for your hard work, and sharing this plug for free.

  7. douglas says:

    Couldn’t load the Color XML file.Error #1085
    I’m getting this error similar to below
    Couldn’t load the Color XML file.Error #1088
    Tried changing the default template – reloading template etc and used the same solution for #1088 but still no success.

    Home someone can help

  8. douglas says:

    further to my last coment i have discovered my thumbnails are not being loaded either – error message logged – loads the main images Ok have checked the folder.

    Error message
    Line 183
    Error ‘flagAjax’ is undefined
    Code:0
    URL ******/wp-admin/admin.php?page=flag-manage-gallery
    using wordpress version to 2.8.2

  9. douglas says:

    I have just upgraded to latest version of wordpress and it now sort of works but no thumbnail images

    • Rattus says:

      This is becouse your site use a lot of memory on server or you have little PHP memory limit (edit php.ini or ask your hoster increase PHP memory limit). You can reduce server memory usage by disabling unused plugins.
      The esiest way is upload smaller size of photos :)

  10. roger camara says:

    Hi. i installed FLAGallery with great success… only problem im having is when i click on “upload pictures” on the plugin overview it takes me to a screen displaying: “You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.”

    id appreciate any help. thanks.

    • Rattus says:

      You are right. There is broken button on the Overview page. My bad :(
      I’ll fix it in next version soon. You can upload images from “Manage Galleries” page.

  11. Geo_Condit says:

    Hi,
    I really love your plug in. Its great to work with and I had it working just fine. I deleted a couple of files that I thought were photo gallery plug ins that I didn’t like from my public html file and now I’m getting the message “Couldn’t load the Main XML file.Error #1090″, can you tell me what file I’m missing?

    Any help you can give would be awesome.

    • Geo_Condit says:

      I think I found a bug. Removing the other files in FTP wasn’t the problem. I’m using the theme Atahualpa 3.2, and when I entered captions on my photos I got the message from my site.

      Thanks for a great plug in. If I can make this new business any money, I’ll be donating for sure. Thanks.

  12. Moonlight says:

    I meet a problem.
    It says “Couldn’t load the media file.Error #2035″ when I show it on my page.
    What can I do? >”<
    Thanks for help.

    • Moonlight says:

      Thx! I find my problem!

    • Ben says:

      Hi, I’m having the same issue, “Error #2035. Could not Load the Media File”. It seems the previous poster found his issue in 5 minutes. What am I missing?!

      Any help would be great.

      • Rattus says:

        when plugin create thumbnails, there must appear errors immediately.
        For example, I have this:
        Image size (dsc00057.jpg): 4.41Mb (2592×1944)
        On Overview page you can see under Server Settings:
        PHP Memory Limit : 32M
        Memory usage : 15.61 MByte

        and get this error:
        ID 31:
        A failure occurred [more]
        dsc00057.jpg (Error : Exceed Memory limit. Require : 40.29 MByte)

        Try download images less size or less resolution. Maybe some of your active plugin get conflict with GRAND FlAGallery, so you can try deactivate all your plugins except FlAGallery and upload few images. If this will help, activate your plugins one by one to find what exactly plugin conflict with FlAGallery and don’t forget write to me.

        • Hans says:

          Hi

          I get the same error when uploading a perfectly good picture of 33Kb and 96 dpi. Whatever I try i get this error message.
          What is wrong. I have no other plugins activated

          Hans

  13. Johan Olsson says:

    Hi, I only want one album that contains all my galleries.
    Is there anything else you can write instead of the id on every gallery? Instead of writing flagallery gid=1,2,3… gid=allgalleries or something like that?

    Thank you for a very good plugin.

  14. KJ says:

    The plugin seems to have installed correctly. I created a gallery and uploaded a photo to test it out. When I placed the [flagallery gid=x name="album_name"] code into my page, I get the following error on the published page:

    [IOErrorEvent type="ioError" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 text="Error #2032"]

    I’m not sure where to begin trouble-shooting….

  15. Lee says:

    Hi,
    I am quite new to wordpress but have installed plugins before with success.
    After installing your plugin & activating it I inserted the following code into tag line on post/page :-
    [flagallery gid=x name="Lees Test Image Gallery"]
    After going to front page there was no gallery.
    Your demo & skins look great, please could you advise me on what I am doing wrong ?
    Thanks,
    Lee

  16. meekiet says:

    Hi there..first of all ur plugin is very great!! I installed it then uploaded some photos. But the problem is it didn’t show up in my website. [flagallery gid=1 name="Gallery"] this is the words that showed up in my product page instead of the images. Sorry being too stupid to use the plugin.

    • Rattus says:

      Make sure you have the following in your template. (It’s in the original WP index.php template, but if you’re creating your own, you may have forgotten to include it):

      < ?php wp_head(); ?>

      That line would go in between your < HEAD > < /HEAD > tags

  17. kevin says:

    When do you expect to make new version so that it can be on a site with Nextgen plug-in? Also are you planning on making this work closer with galleries/photos from Nextgen?

  18. Jayce says:

    Hi there,

    I have managed to get this gallery working, but the thumb nails do not appear (I just get the text “Error” instead).

    I only have this plugin installed with two images in, no other plugins or media so I don’t think it’s the php memmory which is 32m.

    Any ideas please.

  19. Wayne says:

    No thumbnails are being created. It is another problem other than memory limit. If I make and upload thumbs it shows. Thanks

  20. Heather says:

    My first gallery is working perfectly, but I tried to put a second gallery on another page, and I get the error message:

    “Couldn’t load the Main XML file.Error #1090″

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks

    • Rattus says:

      If you get error: “Couldn’t load the Color XML file”.
      Make sure you have skin in right place. Should be “wp-conent/plugins/flash-album-gallery/skins/SKIN_FOLDER/xml.php”.
      If path is right, then try edit this file:
      replace

      require_once( dirname(__FILE__) . '/../../flag-config.php');

      with

      if(file_exists(dirname(__FILE__) . "/../../flag-config.php")) {
      	require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . "/../../flag-config.php");
      } else if(file_exists(dirname(__FILE__) . "/../../../flag-config.php")) {
      	require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . "/../../../flag-config.php");
      } else if(file_exists(dirname(__FILE__) . "/../flag-config.php")) {
      	require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . "/../flag-config.php");
      }
    • Heather says:

      Thank you for your help, but I’ve discovered that the problem has something to do with uploading to the FTP server. I uploaded a series of images to the first gallery I created and it went very smoothly. I created a second gallery and uploaded a single image, and again it went smoothly, but when I tried to upload more images to the FTP server, that’s when I got the error message. It occurred again when creating a third gallery – first image ok, any more than that, another error message.

      So, I thought I’d have a try at using the uploader from the WordPress site and it all worked perfectly!

      Any reason why this should happen with FTP uploads?

      • Rattus says:

        Try upload images less size… you can see max allowed upload size at overview page. I saw gallery on your site, very nice. And I noticed that some of your images are realy have big size. One of your image have “&” in the name (Slick & Twisted.jpg), it is not recomended and can cause an error, please rename this image.
        As for uploading big size images without any problem, you can do it via ftp:
        1. Create New Gallery, e.g. “Art Work”
        2. Go to ftp “wp-content/flagallery/art-work” and upload images
        3. Open ‘Manage Galleries’ in wordpress admin and choose ‘Art Work’ gallery
        4. Click button “Scan Folder for new images” and wait wile plugin create thumbnails (make sure you have enough Server PHP memory for very big images)
        5. Enjoy!

  21. Ayu says:

    HI…your plugins is great! And works on my sites. The strange thing is, if I click the category… it will show the post but with this message :
    //

    The Flash Player and a browser with Javascript support are needed..

    But if I click the titel of the post, it will shows the gallery perfectly….I tried to put the head tag in index.php in the wp original but the result is a blank page…so I took it out again.

    Many thanks in advance for the answer :)

    Greeting from Budapest!

    • Rattus says:

      Make sure you have the following in the ‘header.php’ of your template:

      < ?php wp_head(); ?>

      That line would go in between your < HEAD > ... < /HEAD > tags
      Also check if you have ‘category.php’ in your theme folder. There should be in first few rows this line:

      < ?php get_header(); ?>
      • Hi,

        I am having the same problem.
        When I click on the allocated category, I only get a link to the gallery, which when clicked on works a treat.

        This is what I get when click on category.

        Picture Gallery (THIS IS THE CATEGORY NAME THAT IS A CLICKABLE LINK TO THE GALLERY)

        GRAND Flash Album Gallery
        Skins for GRAND FlAGallery
        developed by CodEasily.com – Flash Templates, WordPress Themes and WordPress plugins
        The Flash Player and a browser with Javascript support are needed..

        I checked the Header.php file and yes the code is there.

        My template does not appear to have a category.php.

        I deleted post and started again, but still got the same problem.

        I can view post and see gallery but not from its category listing.

        Any idea how to fix or what the problem is..

        Cheers

        • Rattus says:

          You have specific theme with some function to display content at archive or category pages. Look what function uses your template to display content in archive.php and index.php or insert “more” tag in the post before displaying gallery

    • Corey says:

      I am having a similar problem, on the front page I get this messages:

      “GRAND Flash Album Gallery
      Skins for GRAND FlAGallery
      developed by CodEasily.com – Flash Templates, WordPress Themes and WordPress plugins
      The Flash Player and a browser with Javascript support are needed..”

      The individual page works fine. Meaning when I click on the post I see it just fine.
      Am I not able to have the slide show on the front page.

      I tried looking to see if the files are in scripts but they appear to be.

      • Rattus says:

        It’s because your theme in index.php using some plugin or function like the_excerpt_reloaded() to display post content. If you insert “more” tag in post before shortcode, then flash will be only on individual page

  22. Darius says:

    I’ve put sort code

      • Rattus says:

        Internet Explorer is evil, please, don’t use it. But it should work with all major browsers, even with IE. I’ve recheck all browsers and wordpress versions begining from 2.7 again, when saw your comment, but it’s work perfectly. So all I can advise you is deactivate and completly remove plugin from ftp, download FlAGallery plugin from my site or from wordpress.org again and install it. If this will not help, than update your worpress to newest version. Hope this will help you

      You can do it easily with FlAGallery button on editor panel, when you edit post. In trhe popup window hold down ‘Ctrl’ button and choose galleries left mouse button.
      Or just write gallery IDs separated by comma in “gid” attribute: [flagallery gid=7,3,5,2 name="My Galleries"]
      To display ALL galleries as categories: [flagallery gid=all name="My Galleries"] (only in version 0.29)

    How can I set it to auto slideshow when open the page?
    Thank you

    how can i change button text “All categories”?

  30. Whenever I want to display a gallery in my frontend, I get the error: Couldn’t load the Color XML file.Error #1088
    I’ve already tried a re-install, but it doesn’t help. Are there any known problems with other plugins?

    • Rattus says:

      nobody show me this error, only write a comment… How can I answer this question, if I never see this problem.
      Maybe you have problem with plugins incompability or maybe it’s problem with free hoster. I can’t say with 100% surety.

    Hii.

    Looks like I am having an issue in internet explorer 7 and fire fox pc. Works great in Safari and Firefox on a mac! I get an “please check short code error….” in ie 7 and I get the “check flash and browser java script….” error in firefox.

    What can I do to fix this issue for the pc and not mess up the mac versions? I am using wp 2.8.4.

    Great plug by the way!

  33. Kyndal says:

    [flagallery gid=x name="ALBUM_NAME"]

    I am typing this in perfectly.. I have also tried many variations of it.. removing the quotes, omitting the name… and i also checked to make sure is in my header.
    It just displays text!
    It’s probably something silly.. I hope to get this working because your gallery looks AMAZING.
    Thank you very very much for providing this beautiful gallery FREE!

    Go you!

    whould u help me??thank’s b 4

    • Rattus says:

      It’s becouse your wordpress can’t get access to some files in plugins directory (“You don’t have permission to access /web/wp-content/plugins/flash-album-gallery/admin/js/swfobject.js on this server.”). This script is need for creating flash gallery:
      “http://padang.bpk.go.id/web/wp-content/plugins/flash-album-gallery/admin/js/swfobject.js”

    Hi Rattus, thanks for the great work! This gallery is beautiful and works out easyly – a pleasure to use it. I only would like to have some pics shown in the widgets area, so I’ve installed “RSSPhoto” supported by “SimplePie Core”. The issue I need Your help for is:
    http://kurtisane-desideria.com/escort/wp-content/plugins/flash-album-gallery/xml/media-rss.php
    doesn’t contain anything, neither by the RSSPhoto-widget nor by using the Dynamic Bookmark Link (eg. to add it in FF favborites..) – although “Activate Media RSS feed” is set to active in Gallery options.

    I’ve been trying to use your flash photo gallery and it keeps telling me I can’t use an image over a certain size because of the amount of ram in my server. No matter how much I increase the ram to it still gives me the same message. What’s up with that?

    Hi Rattus,

    Thank you for creating this great plugin, we use it on a number of different pages on our site (danstewartphotography.com). I see from the comments that IE has been giving some people trouble… just wondering, have you found that FLAGalleries sometimes do not show up in IE 7, but then DO show up immediately after a refresh (IE7 again)?

    Any advice is appreciated! Thanks!

  45. Dan says:

    Hi — when I install the plugin, add a slideshow, and then open a new tab (Firefox 3.5.3, Mac OSX 10.6) to view the page, I get “Couldn’t load the media file.Error #2124″. This led me to believe that the plugin wasn’t working, for some reason. But, when I tried viewing the page with Safari, and on another computer with IE7, it worked. Is this a Firefox 3.5 problem, or a problem with viewing the page while logged into WordPress, or something else?

  46. sean says:

    Is there anyway to add a hyperlink to the images in the slide show? My goal is to use the gallery as a navigation menu. I will fidel around with the code and see if I can get this to work, but I was just wondering if anyone had any suggestions. Thanks.

  47. jim Arnold says:

    I spend 2 hours typing in image title and description. Is there any way to get this to display in the gallery – I can’t use this plugin gallery without that option.

  48. Ryan says:

    !!! I can’t get it to work! i get “The flash player and a browser with java…. bla bla bla” problem! I have read every tutorial and still cant fix it! please help me!

  49. Mistercham says:

    Hi,

    “Couldn’t load the media file.Error #2035″

    Thanx for your help

    I have a lot of galerries (categories), and I want to make normal menu with thumbs of these categories, i must do it manualy?

  51. tascha says:

    I have a weird problem, whenever I want to change the colors of any skin I get really bright colors like bright green when I actually just changed the background to black etc. In the Options page I also don’t see in any field neither the hex code for the bright colors nor the colors themselves…

    Can you help me out? It used to work before I updated to WP 2.8.5. I already deinstalled and deleted all the files and installed the plugin again… I’m at a loss what to do…

    • Rattus says:

      If you can’t see any colors at options -> colors tab, then it’s can be some conflict with other plugins. There is a known issue with “Flash Gallery” plugin:
      “GRAND FlAGallery” plugin will not work if you have “Flash Gallery” plugin installed and even not activated
      Try temporary deactivate and remove plugins that you don’t need (other gallery plugins) from ftp. Let me know if this help.

    • tascha says:

      Worked out, thanks!!! Now no blue anymore, only red :-)

    Thank you so much for your help and plugin.

    • moabi says:

      Ok,
      I’ve got the problem ! the path is wrong, i’ve moved the site and it’s using the old path to the pics…
      any idea how to change that ? :-)

      • moabi says:

        Done, i just updated the permalink,

        sorry for that anyway,

        and
        You ROck !!!

        the best gallery ever…. keep us the good work

        • Javier says:

          Hello there:

          We bought the plugin a couple of weeks ago for one web we are working on, now I have got the exact same problem but I can’t update my permalinks because of my server.

          Any idea in how to get it fixed?

          Any help would be very much appreciated.

          Javier.

        • Javier says:

          Maybe updating the plugin ?? Would that delete my pictures or gallery structures??

          Thanks in advance.

          Javier.

          • Rattus says:

            Yes, you can try update the plugin and that keep all your galleries, but first backup skin that you have bought. If this will not help, then try uninstall plugin, deactivate it and activate again. You can recreate all the galleries through Import folder tab

        • Javier says:

          Me again. I got the server admin to update de server options and we updated de permalink structure with no luck :(

          It seems that the path is saved in the DB in a field for every picture (and I presume every gallery as well). After we updated the permalinks I added a new gallery hoping that this one would be created with the new path on it but unfournately it did not.

          I hope this helps to find out the solution.

          Thanks a lot.

          Javier.

        • Javier says:

          I finally made a ln- s from the old path of the gallery to the new one. It is not the solution I was looking for but it seems to work properly as the new galleries also have the wrong (or old) path in their BD field.

          Hope it helps sombody else.

          Javier.

  55. Dhirendra says:

    How can I add this pluging to my index php ?

  56. Ben says:

    One thing which isn’t customizable which I really wish was, is being able to hide the text “Gallery” and the name of the gallery, (I’d rather use the Page title to describe my gallery than having the flash element itself contain that) and to show the photo title text (where I would prefer it) above the photos without needing to click on the I icon. Showing the picture title/caption without an extra click is pretty essential to me, and none of the themes allow this that I can see.

  57. Brittany says:

    Hello, I downloaded the plugin, activated it, AND have enough memory to run everything but everytime I try to create a new gallery it says:

    Fatal error: Class ‘flagAdmin’ not found in /home/content/s/q/u/squishyfox/html/wp-content/plugins/flash-album-gallery/admin/addgallery.php on line 29

    dunno what this means? thank you very much!

    • Rattus says:

      Try to Reset settings of GRAND FlAGallery on Overview page. If that will not help, then it’s can be conflict with some other plugin installed with your WordPress.

  58. Patrick says:

    I think everything is working ok but when I go to the Skins tab nothing displays. All the other tabs and features seem to work, and idea?

    • Rattus says:

      Try to Reset settings of GRAND FlAGallery on Overview page. Or it’s can be conflict with some other plugin installed with your WordPress.

      • Patrick says:

        It was a plugin, FlashFTP. I tried turning off the video/image plugins I have but I did not try that one as I did not think it would be the cause. I was wrong. All is well now, thanks!

  59. orje says:

    Love it but I have problem with the full screen mode.

    With or without slide show don’t matter. It works for 10-15 pictures but after that it hangs. No error message.
    All pictures are small in size, mostly under 50 kb.
    It don’t matter if i use Firefox or IE and then I deselect full screen it works again.

    Your welcome to test my gallery at http://orje.nu/om/foto/fotografier-2007/
    Do you have the same problem viewing it in full screen??

    • Rattus says:

      no, I haven’t any problem viewing it in full screen? Did you test it on different computers?

      • orje says:

        OK, I have been to my friend and tested it one Vista and one XP computer and it all worked well.
        So the problem is local in my computer! Good news!
        Now i just have to figure out whats wrong with my computer…

        Thanks // Orje

  60. Patrick says:

    Using the Green Skin Demo, I was able to change the white background color to match my theme. I purchased the licensed version and now I can’t change the white to match. I tried resetting it as well as changing it to the default theme and back with no luck. Any idea what is wrong?

      Clear caсhe of your browser after change color options, especially if you use IE, or view in different browser. Background of your gallery now is #565f68

  61. Angi says:

    Can I put the slideshow in my sidebar and what is the code to do so? Thanks!

    • Rattus says:

      put in your template file this php function to display gallery:
      $galleryID = '1,2,3'; // ID of each gallery you wand to display separated by comma
      $name = 'Album'; // album name
      $width = '100%'; // flash width
      $height = '500'; //flash height
      echo flagShowFlashAlbum($galleryID, $name, $width, $height)

      • Angi says:

        I copied and pasted the above code into my sidebar (changing the width to 300 and the height to 280) and I got a black box with no pictures. I’m not really code savvy. Is there something I did wrong?

  62. Angi says:

    I think I fixed it. Had a wrong gallery ID number. It’s displaying now. Thanks!

  63. Goran says:

    Can’t get the plugin to show.

    Name of the gallery is “Publicati,” but Plugin button autoinserts “Gallery” when I click on it. ID number is correct.

    Tried to insert in a post and on slide banner. I’m not missing anything in the php code I believe.

    Thanks in advance,

    Goran

  67. Tom says:

    Thanks for the nice gallery application for Word Press. IT’s worth the $29. The only improvement for me would be better instructions on setting it up (Example how to do multiple categories in a single viewer instance. I figure this out from the FAQ, but I had to dig.) Also, I would love to be able to see the title and description next the picture in slide show mode or even the regular gallery, as an option. (I like the cleaner no title look sometimes!).

    Thanks again!

  68. fabio says:

    Hi,
    can i change the text in the button “All categories” easily or i must modify the flash file ?
    Thanks !

  69. axxint says:

    Hi, great plugin! I’m using just the FLAGallery instead of the Grand one. It works great, but I have a question: is there a way to change the gallery colors in the shortcode? I have two different gallery needs on my site, and it would be great if I could change the colors when I called each gallery set. Or is there another way to accomplish the same thing? Thanks, and than you for developing!

  70. Jason says:

    I’m using FLAGallery on a site and after I upgraded the plugin recently and went to add another Gallery, it shows up on the list but the “total” number of galleries doesn’t change and it doesn’t get added to the list of galleries on the frontend gallery. Do I need to reset my settings? I also have customized the theme to my own settings, will this reset those as well?

  71. MT says:

    Hi! Thanks for a great plugin! Just wondering if it is possible to change the slide direction/bounce of the images? I am about to purchase the Green Style PRO 1.0 skin, but I don’t like the way the images bounce in to the gallery, I would prefer just a fade in/out or slide in from the side… The same goes for the PhotoGallery PRO 1.0 skin. Can’t figure out where to change this or if it is at all possible.

    Thanks again :)

  72. MT says:

    ok. Any plans to release a version with fade in/out effect instead of all that movement? It gets tiring to watch for galleries with a lot of images… Apart from that everything is perfect. I would love to purchase this plugin, if only it was possible to change this detail…

  73. MT says:

    Thank you :) No i didnt pay for plugin, but wanted to buy the Green Style Pro skin until I saw the slide effect…

  74. Gianmario says:

    Hi,
    first of all : thanks for this great plugin !!!
    But I don’t understand the reason that I have the error “it needs the Flash player …”, so I have 2 gallery and the plugin works perfectly but if I want add a third gallery I receive this error (?)
    Could you please help me ?
    Thanks in advance
    Kind regards

  75. ktmalueg says:

    Hi -

    This is such a great plugin! We have been using it to show photos to our clients and it has worked great until recently. All of a sudden our galleries are giving the following error: [IOErrorEvent type="ioError" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 text="Error #2032"]

    We have not made any changes to the system, do you know what’s happening?

    Thank you!

    • Rattus says:

      update plugin to latest version and try reset settings (all your color settings will not change)
      seams like flash skin looking files in wrong path: structuralassoc.com/galleries/wp-content/flagallery/…
      should be: structuralassoc.com/wp-content/flagallery/… (without galleries)

  76. Patrick says:

    I have had a few friends comment on the scrolling speed of the thumbnails as being uncontrollable. I have tried it with both Mozilla and IE and would agree it seems to ramp up speed a little too fast, can it be slowed or can there be an option for the user to set it at some percent faster or slower. A simple field under setting that defaults to 100% but allows a user to enter some percentage value such as 50% or 150% if they want it to go faster or slower.

    Please have a look here:

  77. Hi

    I tried your plugin on my localhost ( which is on windows platform ), it worked perfectly.

    Now I am putting this on the hosted server which is on Linux.
    Out here I am unable to see the gallery, or any message. I have gone through the msgs above, and the id etc is all looking correct.

    When I look at settings of flagallery, I only see one difference : T1lib is OFF in case of Linux setup ( although on my windows setup it is ON ).

    Please help

    Swami

  78. Jungle Girl says:

    HI there, love the plugin, it’s fab, thank you.

    Mine is working fine, displaying images fine, but with this message across the pictures:

    Couldn’t load the media file.Error #2036

    Please can you help?

    Thanks again

  79. Pius says:

    Your plugin works very well, its Fab !!!!
    Can you tell how your plugins name the thumbnail ? nameimage_thumb.jpg or …..????
    I need to import my thumbnail manually because my hosting had not enough memory to create it (also with very small image)!
    Thanks :)

    • Rattus says:

      I think it’s problem with your hosting…. Anyway, default path to images: wp-content/flagallery/GALLERY_NAME/image.jpg
      and path to thumbnail: wp-content/flagallery/GALLERY_NAME/thumbs/thumbs_image.jpg

  80. Aronil says:

    Hi there, i’m really impressed by your plugin. ive already installed it properly however everytime i put up a gallery, it takes forever to show the images.. in fact my images aren’t shown at all. not even the thumbnails. it is just stated as loading. any thoughts on this is behaving this way?

  81. Ginny says:

    I get “[IOErrorEvent type="ioError" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 text="Error #2032"]” error, and I can’t figure out why.

    In my post I type ” [flagallery gid=1 name="ginphoto"] ” and it doesn’t work.

    I have tried resetting the settings, and I just installed the program today.

    When I click the “FLAGallery” button in the visual editor, I get an internal error..

    “Internal Server Error

    The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.”

  82. Tara Smith says:

    The gallery works but I can only use it if I can add a description to the images, I noticed in all the demos, no description of any images. So can I add this in myself or … open to a suggestions.

  83. Tim says:

    HI there, am interested in your plug in.
    Can you let me know though if its possible to run different picture galleries on different pages?

    Does the plug in let me do this through admin?

    Just that I had another picture plug in but it only allows me to use one group of pictures using flickr, no matter what page I put the plugin on, it will show the same pictures on any page!…

    If your plug in supports multple groups of pictures on different pages then it may be just what Im looking for.

    Thanks – Tim.

  84. Tim says:

    Hi, have found the answer to my previous question in your site thanks!

    However, Ive installed the plugin but will not actualy upload any photos!
    The browse button to install doesnt do anything. Instead, when I click in the browse box, it goes to browse but then nothing happens when I select photo to upload.
    Just goes back to the upload screen as before.

    Am I doing something wrong?
    Thanks – Tim

    • Rattus says:

      try to disable flash upload and then upload image or send me access to wp admin throug contact form on about page and I’ll try to solve this problem.

  85. Fonny says:

    Сan you help design swf file? I believe I have the ability.

    Of course, just casually ask, and I am too lazy to research wp plug-in, at least for the time being.

    But the flash and Flex I am very keen indeed.

    Once again, thank you such a good wp plug-in.

  86. Method says:

    How do I set a specific category as the first one that is displayed?

    • Rattus says:

      if you have three galleries and shortcode like [flagallery gid=3,1,2 name="Gallery"]:
      first gallery will be with ID=3, then ID=1, and then ID=2
      if you have [flagallery gid=all name="Gallery" orderby=title order=ASC exclude=1]:
      it will display all galleries except ID=1 sorted by title of gallery

  87. Sandy says:

    I’ve just started using this plugin, and I love it! However, when the images are uploading and it attempts to create thumbnails, I get the following error:

    You do not have the GD Library installed. This class requires the GD library to function properly. visit http://us2.php.net/manual/en/ref.image.php for more information

    I looked at that website, but I wasn’t sure what to do. Any ideas on how to fix this glitch?

    Thanks!

  90. I installed the plugin about two weeks ago, uploaded a test gallery and everything seemed to work great. But when I went to upload a real batch of photos today, I received the following error message:

    Fatal error: Call to undefined function wpcf7_add_tag_generator() in /home/content/s/o/u/sourcelv/html/wp-content/plugins/contact-form-7/modules/text.php on line 129

  91. Rene says:

    Hi,

    I really love the Gallery! The only thing is: I can not see the gallery using IE 7+8 and Chrome. In Opera 10.10 and Firefox 3.5 everything works just fine!
    Before I put my new site live, I would like to make it browser independent
    What can I do?

    tia,

  92. Christian says:

    Hi! I just installed this baby an was looking forward to use it. BUT I cannot upload any pictures – I always get “picture001.JPG is no valid image file!”
    This even happens with small pictures form my “photo booth” webcam, so I don’t think it can have anything to do with the mem limit.. Strange…

    Any thoughts on what might be wrong?
    THANKS!

  93. Christian says:

    Sorry to bug y’all, but mine doesn’t work perfectly yet.. I can now uploads images, but when viewing them in the actual pages the graphic interface is missing. I only see some black fields where they were supposed to be. E.g. the Prev and Next arrows and the 3 small “icons” in the lower right corner are just black fields..
    Any clue on what might be wrong?
    THANKS!

  94. Marni Gold says:

    The gallery was working fine on my site and then just checked and it wont load. I just get a black box and the pics keep looking like they are loading.

    I’m not a website pro so please keep instructions simple. Thanks!

    Is there any way to enable users to comment on the page or the gallery itself? Maybe I just missed it… Thanks!

  97. Sylvain says:

    Hi congratulation great plug in you’ve build

    I’m using the slideshow skin. Unlike the other skins this one does not return the gallery mame or title on top left end corner. Is there a way for us to correct this and modify it so that is show where ever we’d like ex: top center, right or where ever

    Thanks Sly

  98. jeroen says:

    Testing your plugin and might just be suitable for a project I’m working on. Good work. But do have a problem testing it online. Any file I try to upload returns with an error message: ” No valid image file”. But it definately is. jpp. png or gif. On my localhost it works, on the webserver it has problems. Upload dir permissions are writeable. Using latest version of your pluging. Any idea? thanks.

  99. The MuJ says:

    Heylo!

    I’m using your plugin for my site and it works fantastically and does everything I need except for one thing which is Posting the image alt/title text.

    Is there a way to to have the alt/title text above the image at all rather than having to press the info button everytime???

    Many Thanks

    The MuJ

  100. Carsten says:

    Hi, thanks for a great Flash gallery!

    Installation and configuration went without problems. In the beginning I uploaded photo’s with my FTP program and ‘scaned’ the image folder with the plugin option.

    But now, when I upload photo’s through the interface of the plugin I get this message:
    —–
    Directory ../wp-content/flagallery/serie-miami contains no pictures
    —–

    Alle the image directories are writable so that’s not the problem. Do you have any idea? Thanks.

    Cheers,
    Carsten
