Topic: Porta and SV v2

Hi,

I'm using Porta and SimpleViewer Pro v2.
Tried to follow this info:http://www.simpleviewer.net/forum/viewt … 926#p15926

Unfortunately it does not work.
Porta generation proceeds as usual, but the gallery is not shown. (blank page with correct background color)
I checked for the presence of 2 swf files inside the ext folder, and only the porta_sv.swf was present.
Copying the simpleviewer.swf in the same folder does not solve this problem.
Renaming simpleviewer.swf to viewer.swf does have an impact, but the images are not shown, instead for each picture a white crossmark is shown.

I have copied the SV pro simpleviewer.swf to c:\Programs Files\Porta\templates\ext\simpleviewer.swf

Thanks for explaining how to remedy.

Re: Porta and SV v2

Unfortunately Porta is not yet compatible with SimpleViewer v2. I've contacted the Porta developer so hopefully it will be updated soon.

The options are to use a different method to generate your SV-Pro v2 galleries

or

create a v1.9 gallery with porta, then upgrade it to SV-Pro v2.

Felix,

Thanks for your answer.
I just recently purchased sv pro. (26/11/2009)
Could you arrange a copy of sv pro 1.9 to solve this problem?

Thank you,

Erwin

Re: Porta and SV v2

SV-Pro v2 includes all the v1.9 files in the 'v1.9' folder.

Aha!

Right under my nose, and I didn't realise :-)

Thx,

Re: Porta and SV v2

Reporting back -

Did extensive testing today.
Putting v1.9 in place worked without a problem. Combining with Porta worked also without a glitch.

However, upgrading from v1.9 to v2 by:
- copying the web/simpleviewer.swf from v2 pro into the gallery folder
- editing index.html and
  - change viewer.swf to simpleviewer.swf
  - adding fo.addParam("allowFullScreen","true");
  - adding fo.addParam("allowScriptAccess","always");
does not work for me.

Could you be more specific about what exactly does not work?
If possible, please post a URL to the problematic site.

Re: Porta and SV v2

In the mean time I have bypassed the problem using photoshop script.
I'll set up a url and post back here.
What is not working is described in my first post on top: either a blank screen using the correct background colour - no photo's, thumbnails, navigation no nothing. In a second trial, I had white checkmarks instead of the photo's.

May take a couple of days now.

Thank you,

Erwin
