Going to Media &gt; Library &gt; Edit your image doesn't give you the options you need?</p> <p>Regards,<br /> Mya </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/gallery-image-uploading-options#post-66851 Sat, 21 Jul 2012 06:57:11 +0000 ookimb 66851@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>i'd like to be able to associate gallery images in the media library on upload - so, for instance, instead of the association/attachment reading 'avia_smart-gallery-of-post-500a358f53a7f', it's attached to the page name. i realize i can add title metadata one by one, but i mean a bulk upload attachment metadata option. or editing after upload option (i tried changing 'avia_smart-gallery-of-post-500a358f53a7f' to the page name in MG but it detached all the images. </p> <p>and/or, probably more importantly for image management, i have no access to the media library on gallery upload, only 'Add media files from your computer' where/how do i change this setting?</p> <p>thanks in advance,<br /> kim </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/how-to-add-portfolio-gallery-images-from-wordpresss-media-library#post-39028 Sat, 28 Jan 2012 04:02:38 +0000 CindyLuken 39028@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>this makes me feel so better - I thought is was my lack of experience! tx again. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/how-to-add-portfolio-gallery-images-from-wordpresss-media-library#post-39007 Fri, 27 Jan 2012 23:05:14 +0000 Kriesi 39007@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hey Guys! I am still investigating the issue. Not exactly sure why images would vanish after upload, but due to the code base one thing that might be crucial is to save the post first, before uploading the images.</p> <p>The problem with the need to upload an image twice if you want to use it in multiple galleries is unfortunately a limitation by wordpress itself. The theme uses a slightly modified version of the wordpress gallery. </p> <p>Wordpress default behavior is like this:<br /> Whenever you upload a picture, it is attached to a post. if you upload multiple pictures they all get attached to the same post, and you can then display them as a gallery by using the [gallery] shortcode. if you would want to use the same image in another gallery you need to upload it to another post.</p> <p>Since I used the wordpress gallery as a starting point for the flashlight gallery it behaves the same way. I have tried to find a way around this, but quite frankly I would need to recode a totally new version of the gallery feature to circumvent that problem.</p> <p>That would mean breaking all current installations once they update, which is not an option in my mind.<br /> The second problem is: I already have tested adavend self build galleries in my follow up themes, but the backend does not play well with large amounts of images which to my mind is crucial in a theme like flashlight.</p> <p>You see we got a little bit of a problem here and I am not quite sure how to solve that at the moment. Once I have a solution I will of course apply it but for now you are unfortunately stuck with the limitations of wordpress (and therefore the limitations of flashlight) :/ </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/how-to-add-portfolio-gallery-images-from-wordpresss-media-library#post-37023 Mon, 09 Jan 2012 12:36:09 +0000 perenoksson 37023@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>"Every gallery is treated as brand new and, right now, cannot be updated unless you re-upload every image - even if they're the exact same images you loaded into the media library some time earlier."</p> <p>Aw christ, is that what's happening? That might explain some the difficulties I've been having. And I was just about to rip my whole wordpress installation out, to start from scratch. If you're semi-new to wordpress, like me, it can be a huge pain trying to figure out what is wrong: if it's the file permissions on the server, something wonky with your installation, or something in the theme... Maybe I'll just calm down for a bit, practice patience. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/how-to-add-portfolio-gallery-images-from-wordpresss-media-library#post-37021 Mon, 09 Jan 2012 11:59:42 +0000 janetomlinson 37021@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Blaise is correct - this is a huge problem for me, too. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/media-library#post-37020 Mon, 09 Jan 2012 11:47:27 +0000 janetomlinson 37020@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>I'm with Richard Olpir (see above) on this one. I have imported all my images from my existing website over to my Flashlight development site only to find that I can't use them and I'm having to reupload every single one often to multiple areas (shop, portfolio items, background images etc, etc) As my website exists to display my paintings and to sell them, this seems like a huge flaw. If I had known this to be the case, I most certainly would NOT have bought the Flashlight theme. Mightily frustrated here! </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/how-to-add-portfolio-gallery-images-from-wordpresss-media-library#post-37008 Mon, 09 Jan 2012 05:51:54 +0000 blaisejc 37008@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Fotomaster,</p> <p>I never ran into any issues with the full screen slideshow so I can't comment as to why you might be having issues. As long as I uploaded straight from my machine, it "just worked". I'm using 3.2.1 of Wordpress, BTW. Also, as to this question:</p> <p>"BTW, the uploading of images into portfolio items is rather off the wall, really. If I understand all right, I need upload the same images every times as new, when I need create a few portfolio items with the same set of images. Is that true? Or I do something wrong?"</p> <p>...this is exactly at the heart of this post. Every gallery is treated as brand new and, right now, cannot be updated unless you re-upload every image - even if they're the exact same images you loaded into the media library some time earlier. This is nearly a dealbreaker for usage of this theme for serious photoblogging, so I hope Dude and/or Kriesi can get it fixed.</p> <p>- Blaise </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/how-to-add-portfolio-gallery-images-from-wordpresss-media-library#post-37007 Mon, 09 Jan 2012 05:46:59 +0000 blaisejc 37007@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Had this issue occur again today. This is a killer when trying to set up large portfolios. Dude, did Kriesi have any kind of response to your reported request? Is there something I can do to add that 'Add from Media Library' tab into the 'Upload' dialog myself by hacking some of the theme code?</p> <p>Please let me know.</p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>Blaise </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/how-to-add-portfolio-gallery-images-from-wordpresss-media-library#post-36862 Sat, 07 Jan 2012 10:57:55 +0000 fotomaster 36862@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Update: my previous question to Blaise now isn't actual, because I check it myself (see the message here <a href="http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/problems-with-flexible-grid-gallery#post-36861" rel="nofollow">http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/problems-with-flexible-grid-gallery#post-36861</a> ).</p> <p>BTW, the uploading of images into portfolio items is rather off the wall, really.

Is it the latest 3.3.1.? I ask about, because your full-screen slide-show works perfectly! <a href="http://thecalandros.net/album-items/2011-christmas-album/" rel="nofollow">http://thecalandros.net/album-items/2011-christmas-album/</a> - terrific! Unfortunately, I cannot say that about of mine <a href="http://www.fotoetude.com/portfolio-item/testing_wedding_fullscreen/" rel="nofollow">http://www.fotoetude.com/portfolio-item/testing_wedding_fullscreen/</a>. You published 97 pcs of wonderful pictures, and all of them played well in my browsers. I published 165 for test reason, but my full-screen slide-show works badly (stops playing after 120 photos in IE, and very loads the CPU/memory of system). I try to see - what is the secret of this?</p> <p>Thanks! </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/how-to-add-portfolio-gallery-images-from-wordpresss-media-library#post-36755 Fri, 06 Jan 2012 08:19:36 +0000 Dude 36755@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hey,<br /> I reported your request to Kriesi. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/how-to-add-portfolio-gallery-images-from-wordpresss-media-library#post-36733 Thu, 05 Jan 2012 23:23:39 +0000 RichardOlpin 36733@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Absolutely second this. </p> <p>Every other theme I've used uses the WP media library/galleries as source. Seems really odd for a modern WP theme not to use it given how good the built in support is. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/how-to-add-portfolio-gallery-images-from-wordpresss-media-library#post-36722 Thu, 05 Jan 2012 20:09:35 +0000 blaisejc 36722@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Admins,</p> <p>I have noticed that when I upload pictures to a portfolio via Flashlight's built in uploader from my computer and the pictures are many and large in size, in takes a while to upload (sometimes hours). Usually I will go and do something else and allow the uploads to proceed on their own. If I'm not there to save shortly after they finish uploading (letting Wordpress automatically save the portfolio draft), when I come back to finish the portfolio later, the images have disappeared from the portfolio itself, but they are in the Wordpress Media Library. Then, I try and go back into the draft portfolio and re-add the images, when I click the green 'Upload' button, I only have the option to add new items from my computer. It does not allow me to select images already in the Media Library. </p> <p>Is there any way to enable the ability to add images to a portfolio (or post or page) gallery in Flashlight by simply selecting them from the media library instead of having to always upload them?</p> <p>TIA,</p> <p>Blaise </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/media-library#post-36631 Thu, 05 Jan 2012 01:34:19 +0000 RichardOlpin 36631@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>I think maybe the OP is referring to the fact that Flashlight requires it's own uploader and doesn't support the default WP media library. This seems like a real oversight as every other theme I've used from TF has supported it and it's a standard feature of wordpress. Seems crazy to have a separate uploader when the built in one is standard.</p> <p>I must admit I was rather surprised to see this having just purchased the theme to replace one on my existing site I was pretty disappointed to find that I'm going to lose all my previously uploaded galleries and will have to upload them again to use for slideshows etc.</p> <p>That's going to be very time consuming so now I'm wondering if I should maybe just ditch Flashlight and go back to my original theme. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/featured-image-thumbnail-crop#post-34985 Thu, 15 Dec 2011 07:31:57 +0000 Chris Beard 34985@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>there's currently no such option, I'll put it on the suggestion list and notify Kriesi. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/featured-image-thumbnail-crop#post-34872 Wed, 14 Dec 2011 11:25:02 +0000 LaBoiteNoirASK 34872@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Is there an option (as in facebook) where one can move around the image in the thumbnail to define the area of the photo that is displayed within the thumnail !?</p> <p>If not, it would be awsome if you can add that in a next version of the corona theme. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/media-library#post-31248 Sun, 06 Nov 2011 01:25:27 +0000 Chris Beard 31248@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hey,<br /> are you certain you're running the latest WordPress version with the latest version of Flashlight?<br /> I'm not sure about this but <a href="http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/featured-media-image-upload-not-working#post-29142">this</a> might help.<br /> If the above isn't the case could you provide a link to your site or screenshots of the issue?<br /> Thanks for your patience. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/media-library#post-31039 Wed, 02 Nov 2011 21:10:43 +0000 angusthomas 31039@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>my media library seems to have disappeared - when i go to upload images into the theme it only allows me to upload from url - do you know why this is pls </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/broadscope-media-library-upload-error#post-25000 Tue, 16 Aug 2011 15:02:56 +0000 Dude 25000@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Glad that I could help you :) </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/broadscope-media-library-upload-error#post-24997 Tue, 16 Aug 2011 13:47:31 +0000 piraterob 24997@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>WORKS!!
