The Vimeo videos embedded into the Patrick Surace demo are included on a 'Basic' page and the embedding code for each video looks something like this:

<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="576" mozallowfullscreen="" src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/12345678?color=ffffff" webkitallowfullscreen="" width="1024"></iframe>

The embedding code would be entered into the text editor in 'Source' input mode.
Check that your embedding code looks like the above. (It sounds like you may be using some code other than an iframe.)
Further details on embedding Vimeo videos can be found here.
If you continue to experience difficulties, then please post the URL to your web page so that I can take a look and help further.

I'm glad that worked. Thank you for posting back to let me know.

On further investigation, in your DE and FR sites, the latest Showkase v1.3.0 files seem to be in place but the current HTML files have been generated with Showkase v1.0.1 templates (as can be seen in the comment in the <head> section).
Try republishing your DE and FR sites in case something went wrong during publishing (or perhaps the DE and FR sites have not yet been published after upgrading to Showkase v1.3.0).

2014-05-05 13:42:36

I see the problem you describe in your DE and FR sites (but have not been able to replicate the problem in a test site of my own).
It certainly looks like a CSS problem which may be caused by a mixture of old and new files (perhaps one or more of the updated Showkase files did not overwrite existing files on your web server during the upgrade).
Try re-uploading all the '_themes' files from the Showkase v1.4.0 download zip package to your DE and FR Showkase installations on your web server to ensure that all files are present and correct. Hopefully this will help.
(If you have modified any '_themes' files or have edited any 'custom.css' files, please make a backup of them first before replacing them on your web server.)

Another question, I am using my logo on the header, can I link it to something ?

Yes. Go to 'Site -> Site Settings' and enter the URL you wish to use in the 'Site Header -> Site header link' text field.

@gustavocampos1

The 'Base font size (px)' in the interface goes up to only 16. All values set within the interface should result in a layout that looks OK.

Adding custom CSS can cause knock-on effects that might need to be resolved (as you have discovered).

If you find that your text is not being displayed in its entirety, then you may need to expand the container it is in with further CSS rules.

If the problem you are having is that you are using the Kosel theme and the top of the menu text is disappearing, try adding the following to your '_themes/kosel/css/custom.css' file:

nav ul {
    padding-top: 5px;
}

If this does not help, then please post the URL to your web site so that I can take a look and help further.

Incidentally, if you are not already using the current version of Showkase (v1.3.0), you can upgrade following the instructions here.

2014-05-01 20:25:58

The Kosel theme still displays the navigation menu horizontally (in Showkase v1.3.0) except in narrow browser windows or on mobile devices where a menu icon is displayed (four horizontal lines) which can be clicked/tapped to toggle a vertical menu on and off.
When I view both your web pages in desktop browsers, the navigation menu is displayed horizontally as expected. The submenu page displays the top-level menu on a single horizontal line of text and the secondary menu, which changes depending on the top-level page currently being displayed, is also on a single horizontal line of text (below the top-level menu).
If you are not seeing this, then please try clearing your browser's cache before reloading your site to see if this makes a difference.

2014-05-01 20:18:20

Did you add your site header logo to your Showkase Library ('Library -> Upload') and select it (in the 'Site -> Customize Theme' section) using the 'Browse' button or did you enter a URL manually? If you entered a URL manually, please make sure that the URL is an absolute path (in the form http://www.example.com/images/image.png) so that it is a valid path from any web page.

I have been unable to replicate your problem using the Library method so if you have not already tried this, please do so.
If you continue to experience difficulties, then please post the URL to your Showkase site so that I can take a look and help further.

How do I go about stripping out the EXIF information?

Just removed all the metadata and the viewing files are the correct orientation.

It looks like you have figured out how to strip the metadata from your images (a batch process in an imaging program would probably be the best solution, and certainly the quickest).

The thumbnails are still the wrong rotation.

Try rebuilding your Juicebox gallery (edit your Juicebox gallery page and go to 'Advanced -> Rebuild this Juicebox gallery').
If this does not help, then please post the URL to your gallery so that I can take a look.
Also, it might help if you were able to upload one of the images that you are using that results in a correctly-oriented main image but an incorrectly-oriented thumbnail somewhere (and provide a download link) so that I can try to replicate the problem myself. Thank you.

With regard to Showkase not currently being able to rotate images, please post suggestions for future versions of Showkase in the Feature Requests forum thread. It keeps them all together and ensures that they are not overlooked. Thank you.

2014-04-25 09:38:37

It looks like your gallery might have been given fixed dimensions before it became part of a svManager or Showkase management system.

Here are a few things to try:

Make sure that you are using Showkase's 'Gallery Manager' theme ('Site -> Change Theme -> Gallery Manager') which displays galleries at 100% x 100% (filling the entire browser window, or in your case, your iframe).
If you are already using this theme, then try changing the theme to something different ('Boma' or 'Kosel') and then change it back to 'Gallery Manager'.

Now that your 'g2' gallery is part of Showkase, you could try rebuilding the gallery (edit the Juicebox Gallery page and go to 'Advanced -> Rebuild this Juicebox gallery').

Although the 'g2' gallery is already part of Showkase, it looks to have been originally part of svManager and became part of Showkase during the upgrade.
You could try importing the gallery into Showkase using the 'Site -> Import' functionality (to create a new Showkase page from the gallery) and then load this new page into your 'iframe'.

If none of the above automated suggestions work, then try opening your http://coromandelflavour.co.nz/showkase/g2/index.html page directly in a plain text editor and manually change the gallery width and height both to 100%.

A further solution (though not as clean as simply setting your gallery's dimensions to 100% x 100%) would be to add the following code to your 'showkase/_themes/manager/css/custom.css' file:

body.type-juicebox {
    margin: 0 !important;
}

... to ensure that the margin on your page (visible when viewing http://coromandelflavour.co.nz/showkase/g2/index.html) is not displayed within the iframe.

One of these suggestions should hopfully solve your problem.

2014-04-24 09:31:56

I do not know what program you usually use to view your images but it is possible that it reads the EXIF orientation flag embedded in your images and rotates the images as they are being viewed, depending on the value of the flag.
Showkase and SimpleViewer do not read the EXIF orientation flag and simply display the images as they are.

There is little consistency between programs (and browsers) as to whether or not your images will be displayed as you expect.
Try viewing one such image directly in a number of different browsers (Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Internet Explorer and Safari). You will likely see the image being displayed in different orientations across the browsers.

The only way to be sure that a program will display your images as intended would be to re-save your images stripping out the EXIF data and then rotate the images afterwards until they visibly look correct. (You can then feed them to Showkase and SimpleViewer.)

I hope this helps explain things.

2014-04-24 09:18:37

Each theme uses its own default settings.
To reset the Kosel theme's Juicebox settings (for example), delete the 'showkase/_data/themedata/kosel/juicebox.xml' file.

2014-04-24 09:17:51

Thank you for providing the URL to your web page.
I see what you are doing now (loading a Juicebox gallery created by Showkase into an iframe in a non-Showkase page).
I thought that you were loading a Juicebox gallery created outside of Showkase into an iframe on a 'Basic' Showkase page.
In this case, importing the gallery would not be possible (or a solution).

The problem seems to be that your iframe has dimensions of 750 x 490 but that your gallery has dimensions of 730 x 490 (resulting in the space that you report). Try setting your gallery's dimensions to be the same as your iframe's dimensions or set your gallery's dimensions to 100% x 100% so that the gallery fills the iframe no matter what size it is.

2014-04-23 22:43:50

Rather than load the gallery into an iframe within a Showkase page, you could import the gallery into Showkase (and give the gallery its own Showkase page) by using the 'Site -> Import' functionality. This would allow you to manage the gallery within the Showkase interface and should also hopefully solve your problem with the space on your web page.

If this does not help (or you do not want to import the gallery), then please post the URL to your web page so that I can take a look and help further.

2014-04-22 11:28:34

First of all, I would recommend keeping your Showkase and WordPress installations completely separate from each other (in different directories, ie. not storing one within the other).
Having your WordPress installation within your Showkase directory may cause problems if you ever want to move or upgrade either of the programs.
Separating the two from each other would also solve the problem that you are currently experiencing.

In order to have Showkase create a Navigation Link, you would need to ensure that the name of the page does not match any existing page. You could initially call it something other than 'blogg' (just so that Showkase can create the necessary page) and then edit your Showkase pages manually to change the text displayed in the menu. However, please note that such manual modifications will be lost any time your Showkase site is republished.

Alternatively, you could also change the source code of Showkase to add a custom link to the end of your menu (bypassing Showkase's own Navigation Link functionality) by following the example in this forum post.

However, the easiest (and cleanest) solution would be to keep your Showkase and WordPress installations in separate directories.

2014-04-10 00:43:28

Unfortunately, there is no quick and easy way to reset all Juicebox gallery settings to their default values within Showkase.
If you change gallery configuration options at theme level (under 'Site -> Customize Viewers'), then these values will be applied to all galleries. However, if any settings have been changed at page level (on individual gallery pages), then these values will override theme level settings and you will need to change the page level settings back to change the corresponding galleries.

2014-03-29 11:18:31

If you want to use an image link (instead of a text link), try something like the following. Make sure the path to your Facebook logo image is correct.

$customLi = $navDom->createElement('li');
$customA = $navDom->createElement('a');
$customA->setAttribute('href', 'http://www.example.com/index.html');
$customImg = $navDom->createElement('img');
$customImg->setAttribute('src', '/facebook.png');
$customImg->setAttribute('width', '50');
$customImg->setAttribute('height', '50');
$customImg->setAttribute('alt', 'logo');
$customA->appendChild($customImg);
$customLi->appendChild($customA);
$navRoot->appendChild($customLi);

2014-03-27 22:33:30

If you want Showkase to add a custom link at the end of your menu on every page each time the 'Publish' button is clicked, you would need to to open the 'showkase/admin/classes/nav.php' file in a plain text editor, scroll down to line 177 and just before the return $navDom; line, construct the HTML you require within a <li> tag using PHP DOM techniques and append your custom DOM element(s) to the $navRoot variable.
For example, if you wanted to insert a link which displays the text 'Click Here' and directs the user's browser to the URL http://www.example.com/index.html, then you could use the following code:

$customLi = $navDom->createElement('li');
$customA = $navDom->createElement('a');
$customA->setAttribute('href', 'http://www.example.com/index.html');
$customText = $navDom->createTextNode('Click Here');
$customA->appendChild($customText);            
$customLi->appendChild($customA);
$navRoot->appendChild($customLi);

Please note that the source code of Showkase was not intended to be modified by users in such a manner and I do not know what (if any) knock-on effects this may have.
More information on using the PHP DomDocument class can be found here.
I hope this helps.

2014-03-26 21:32:37

If you just want to add a link to your Showkase menu (without any further custom code such as an <img> tag), then this can be done within the Showkase interface by creating a new 'Navigation Link' page.
The new navigation link will appear in the menu at the top of all your Showkase pages but there will be no actual Showkase page associated with this link within your site.

If you want to manually add a link to your Showkase menu (which you would need to do if you want to add an image to the link), then you would need to edit each and every one of your Showkase pages. Showkase creates static and complete HTML pages (it does not produce a separate and individual menu file which is included via server-side scripting into all your pages). Also, please bear in mind that any manual modifications will be lost if you update the pages within the Showkase interface.

Each Showkase page has its own folder in the root Showkase directory.
For example, if your Showkase directory is named 'showkase' and you create a page named 'Page Number One', then the page on your web server that you would need to edit would be 'showkase/page-number-one/index.html'.
If you open the page in a plain text editor, search for your existing menu entries and you should find where to add a new one with your own custom code.

Please see the Managing Multiple Sites support section and this forum post entitled "Multiple-language versions of the same site" which should hopefully point you in the right direction.

2014-03-20 20:19:42

There should be nothing stopping you from installing Showkase on your new domain.
There is no license check built-in to the program (although the Terms of Use allow you to upload each licensed version to only one web site domain).

Try re-uploading your Showkase files to your web server in case there was a problem with the initial upload which has resulted in a missing or corrupt file.

2014-03-14 09:44:18

I'm glad that you have made some progress with regard to embedding videos in Showkase pages.
Thank you for sharing your findings. Hopefully other users will be able to benefit from your information.

2014-03-14 09:43:32

Please see the Creating Themes support section.
This should hopefully answer your questions.

2014-03-13 09:21:37

Try adding the following code to the 'custom.css' file (changing the pixel value as required):

.type-about div.body-content {
    padding-bottom: 50px;
}

2014-03-12 10:16:41

I'm noticing that that on index pages there is no dividing line at the bottom in the kosel theme there is no dividing line at the bottom of the page. Is there a way to make it appear?

Open your '_themes/kosel/css/custom.css' file in a plain text editor and add code such as the following:

.type-galleryindex section.content {
    border-bottom: 1px solid #2B2B2B;
}

Also, in the "about" page the space between the main body text and the bottom line is very tight. How might I move that?

If you want to add some space between the bottom of the body text and the horizontal separator, add one (or more) HTML line breaks at the end of the content. In the text editor, click on 'Source' button and add <br>.
Alternatively, if you are not in 'Source' mode, just go to the bottom of the text and hit the enter/return key a few times.

Lastly, I'd like to tighten up the space between the bottom line and the copyright.

Open your '_themes/kosel/css/custom.css' file in a plain text editor and add code such as the following:

footer {
    margin-top: 1em;
}

(The default 'margin-top' for the footer is 2em.)

The best way to go about making such tweaks (ie. things that cannot be changed within the Showkase interface) is to fire up your browser's developer tools, determine the ids and classes of the elements that you want to change and add custom CSS to your theme's 'custom.css' file.
