SimpleViewer Integration.

  • I know many numerous questions about SimpleViewer and WordPress have been asked before, but I think mine is a tad bit different. I’ve read all the posts about them and still have no answer.

    This is what I am trying to do.

    I am an artist and I am trying to set up a simple web gallery presence. I have looked around and SimpleViewer is the easiest way to get a nice looking photo gallery quickly. I like the look of it, and the Flash aspect of it.

    I am looking for something that could maybe allow me to integrate the comment and tags aspect of WP into SimpleViewer.

    Where I could post a photo to the blog with a tag, and the photo is automatically entered into the nice clean gallery with the same appropriate tag.

    I’m not new to web programing, but I think this is a little beyond me, and I can’t think (find) of a way to do this.

    Any feedback is much, much, much appreciated. ??

  • If you want to be able to comment on a photo, SV isnt a great choice. Better just to photoblog it at that point. Though, I guess you might be able to get SV to jump to the blog page for the photo via some kind of link per photo. hmmm.

    Would likely want to be done as a plugin, auto-generate the SV XML on-demand either from the DB directly, from a secondary table, or from a folder on the server. Posts would need to be intercepted by the plugin, in order to put the photos in a particular folder and|or cache information for building the XML.

    Not impossible, not hugely difficult, but certainly tricky. And with modern JS you can do some cool stuff without Flash, just see lightbox or whatever that plugin is.

    After spending nearly 10 hours attempting to figure out how to integrate the fantastic Simpleviewer photo gallery into my blog posts….I finally figured out a painless and insanely easy way to do it. So for my first every official post, I’m going to give you a quick run through.
