    Hi Douglas,
    My apologies for the delayed reply. We had some maintenance work going on the BuddyDev, so could not reply earlier.

    I will first visit the site and fix the issues. I know why they are appearing( for old galleries, try creating new galleries, these won’t).

    After that I will let you know the details here.

    Hi Douglas,
    It is fixed now.

    I had a look at your site and I found that you were using a very old version of MediaPress. When did you download it and from where. It might be my fault to link to an older version, so just need the idea.

    I have updated the MediaPress plugin there. Also deactivated it on network and just activated it on your main site. If you need it on all site only then you should network activate it.

    After upgrade, There was some file caching that caused me to wait for a few minutes. After that, Things seem to work for me. I have disabled the Members/groups etc. Please check and see if there is any issue.

    Here is an example gallery that you had created earlier.

    I am glad you have sorted out most.

    For the last, please visit “Dashboard->settings->Permalink” and copy your current settings. Then select a different one and click save. After that, copy back your old permalink and save. The first change will flush the permalink while the second restores your old setting.

    Flushing rewrite rules is a heavy operation, that’s why we do it only at the activation of the plugin and not each time the options is saved. Please give it a try and let me know if that made it work.

    thank you
    Brajesh

    Thank you for the clarification.

    1. There is no need to create any page. You can link to the gallery directly from your Appearance->menu page. Here is a guide on How to Link to a Gallery directly from WordPress Menu
    https://buddydev.com/mediapress/topics/getting-started/settings-options/linking-to-mediapress-galleries-from-wordpress-menu/

    2. If you are the only one going to upload, here are my advice:-
    – Please disable User/groups gallery and keep the Sitewide Gallery active only.
    -From MediaPress settings, Please disable the status/type you don’t need and save.

    – You can create Sitewide Gallery from Dasboard->MediaPress->Add New Photo gallery. Try it and you will be pleasantly surprised. The editing/uploading experience should be great we hope.

    3. If you are using sitewide gallery and you have changed the “Gallery slug ” in MediaPress settings, in that case, please flush rewrite rules to avoid 404 error.

    Once you have created a gallery, please link that to the menu.

    Hope that helps.

    Hi Douglas,
    Welcome to BuddyDev forums and thank you for using MediaPress.

    I am sorry but I did not understand the question properly, so I will try to explain what I understood and the solution. Please do correct me, if I did not get it correctly.

    1. Do you want to list all galleries in a grid? If yes, please use [mpp-list-gallery ] shortcode. You can customize this shortcode with various options. Here is a guide for various options.
    https://buddydev.com/mediapress/topics/getting-started/shortcodes/mediapress-gallery-listing-shortcodes/

    2. Or do you want to list all media? you can use [mpp-media] with all options exactly same as above. With mpp-media, you can also use ‘gallery_id=some_id’ to list media from that gallery.

    [mpp-show-gallery id=XX] will only list the media from a single gallery. so that may not be usefull for you.

    If you simply need a page where all the galleries are listed, You can simply enable directory from MediaPress Settings->BuddyPress and then assign a page to gallery in BuddyPress->pages. It will list all galleries.

    If you can explain me and provides more details, I might have other suggestions too.

    Thank you
    Brajesh

    Brajesh Singh on October 19, 2015 at 5:19 pm in reply to: Need to know how to filter galleries #1023

    Hi,
    My apologies for the delayed reply. I have been thinking about your requirements a lot today.

    1. MediaPress currently allows 3 types of gallery.
    – User Galleries
    – Groups Galleries
    – Sitewide Galleries

    Sitewide galleries are not visible on User’s BuddyPress profile at the moment. It is like normal WordPress gallery with one twist that It can be created/managed from front end/backend both.

    2. What I understand is you want to create a Few categories and then allow users to Create Galleries and choose those categories? After that galleries/media can be sorted/filtered by these categories. It is possible to do with MediaPress but I will need to write some code to test custom categories. We haven’t tested this yet. Will these categories be available for all 3 type of galleries or just user galleries? Also, will a user be able to choose more than one category for a gallery?

    3. About the gallery media filtering, we are have definitely thought about it and it will com in future. We are not sure what counts as popularity( comment count, views or what criteria)? Before making something like this, we will need to release the View counter plugin(already of github, needs a finishing touch and release). This will be a small addon and we certainly look forward to have it.

    4. By ajax not working on gallery, can you pleas explain that in a little more details. Is it the tab clicking or uploading etc?

    Thank you
    Brajesh

    Hi Hans,
    Thank you.
    I understand the issue and appreciate you sending the screenshot.

    Since both the plugins are from us, we can definitely change the behavior. But there is an easier solution than doing it, simply turn off profile visit in the admin’s Visitors settings. What do you think of that?
