    Simple TGPX question

    Hey,
    Have stupid problem, maybe cuz i've sitting whole day configuring script and solution is before my eyes, anyway i don't see it.

    when partner submitting gallery there's default preview thumb size set:

    Picture Gallery: 120x150

    i need my submitter to have 200x300 value, anyone know where to set it up?

    talking about option "select and crop an image from your gallery"

    i would appreciate help, google failed me. and i don't want to wait xx days for unofficialsupportboard to response

      druid: it's located under the Category Manager.

      1. Go to > Admin >> Settings >> Manage Categories section
      2. Click the Pencil Icon to edit a single category
      3. In the Thumbnail size section for both movies and Pictures, choose Custom and set your new size.
      4. At the very bottom, click the checkbox for "Apply these Settings to All Categories"

      Be aware, that whatever you set here WILL be applied to all existing categories.

              Galleries in my other pages are duplicated from index page, why? on others pages i'm usign global dupes false - it should prevent duplicating galleries, am i right?

                  Make sure you are building the pages in the exact order needed. For example, globaldupes=false on the index page should be the first page built. Then the next page with dupes=false will be unique, etc.

                  The build order is very important. Note, this means on your actual pages manager, the pages are built in the order they are listed there. Edit the build ID on each one to make sure the index pages are built first.

                      Thank you again.
                      Here is how it's set up:

                      index page build 1
                      {define name=globaldupes value=true}
                      {define name=pagedupes value=false}

                      amateur page build 2
                      {define name=globaldupes value=false}
                      {define name=pagedupes value=false}

                      now when i'm doing build all with new i have galleries on index page and few of them repeat on amateur page and since i'm using pagedupes false it should not appear at the same time on amateur page, what am i doing wrong?

                              Ahh, you're building an index page and then the archives per category. TGX isn't really great for that, but it can certainly be done. One thing you check is this.. on the amateurs category... see if you have a directive specified for:

                              allowused=true

                              If so, change this to false and rebuild with new again.

                              Also, and this is important, make sure you are rebuilding ALL with new from the main nav menu and NOT doing a build all with new from the page editor. If you do it on the page template editor, it only builds that page which is AFTER the main index was built on the last rebuild. See?

                              All these global dupe settings only really works properly when you build all with new from the main menu, or via cron.

                                      Now hard one.
                                      I'm working on another tgp in which i would like galleries to be pulled according to alphabetical order by descriptions.

                                      I know there is no such options for pulling out galleries, at least i didn't find it.

                                      How would you do this? Any idea?

                                      In my opinion solving this problem could give TGPX more options to use than simple TGP script, it could serve for example as directory script (i'm gonna use "galleries" as pages for directory).

                                          Druid: one workaround for this is to use the galleries search function to:

                                          1. Search by: Description
                                          2. Starting with: a
                                          3. Select all the results
                                          4. Edit the first entry's weight and assign it to 2.00
                                          5. Click to Save to All Results

                                          Then repeat this for each letter, incrementing the weight a little for each letter.

                                          On your gallery template directives, then you can output by weight which will give you an alphabetical output by description.

                                          Certainly not the most efficient method, and using direct SQL queries would be quicker and more efficient, but this should provide you with the necessary results.

                                          Incidentally, if you do a Google Search for "unofficial JMB support", a guy named CL Peters is providing a peer-to-peer forum specific to JMB software. I'm not a member there, but have used JMBSoft scripts since the late 90's (anyone remember Rank 'Em?) , and have a fairly reasonable idea on how to get the results I need from those scripts.

                                              i know about this unofficial board - i would not install tgpx without it, theres few glitches in the script, very easy to fix and it's all described on unofficial board.

                                              the reason i'm asking questions here it's because here i can get answers very fast, there i need to wait few days.

                                              very good idea with this searching, thanks a lot!

                                                  Quick question (done researching google, unofficialboard, docs.. nothing or again i'm blind..)

                                                  end user gallery search - where to limit characters from 4 to 1?

                                                  theres some japanese idols like Ai, Mei - it's annoying when resulting with 4 character limitation comments instead of the girls
