• I am basically very happy with my newly begun WPPA slideshow for my artwork and generally happy with its dynamic for use on tablet and cell phone, with one exception. I increased the size of the thumbnails and album covers. On the desktop the albums are listed with cover image and links to Slideshow and View 13 photos https://www.studiolhp.com/artworks/

    When the same page is shown on my smartphone, the text in the links is left-aligned and displayed one letter under another, vertically rather than horizontally. It’s awkward and lengthy in the album box. I would much prefer to locate the link texts above or below the cover image in the album box in the smartphone version.

    How can I change the location/orientation of the textual links in the album box in the cell phone version of my albums page so they appear above or below the image?

    Do the following:

    – Wait for version 6.3.7 ( see below why )

    – Go to Photo Albums -> Settings admin page.

    – Open Table IV-D

    – Select on line 6: Image factory mcr

    – Enter on line 6.1: 1
    Currently the minimum is 2, but i will change it to 1 in the next version.
    You can try the layout now already, with 2 thumbnails.

    – Select the location of the thumbnail(s) on Table IV-D3. Read the help under the [?]

    Thank you!
    one additional question: I thought I was downloading the most recent version when I auto-downloaded from www.remarpro.com. Where/when/how can I get 6.3.7?

    I know you have heard this before but thank you, thank you. a GREAT plug-in!

    6.3.7 is ‘in the factory’, i will release it tomorrow.
    If you can’t wait, install the development version, it is likely identical to the version to be released.
    De-activate and delete the plugin, and install this version by uploading the zip on the plugins -> add new screen; and activate. It will say it is 6.3.6, but it is almost 6.3.7

    Is there any way to make this photo count calculated based on the number of sub-albums below it? I like the looks of the Image Factory selection, but I would want to use it to include photos from each of the children albums or only one photo when it is the lowest level album. I tried to use the image_factory_mcr as an override in a particular album to override the default, but there was no way to change the default number of photos to display to override the default. This would definitely complicate things because I would want to be able to select multiple specific photos (in my case, one randomly or specifically from each of the child albums).

    Thanks, Karen

    The selection mechanism of cover photos for the imagefactory type of cover will not be extended.

    Thank you. I followed your directions and the new version works brilliantly!

    I increased the size of the thumbnail images and I am VERY happy with how my artworks page looks, both on desktop and on cell phone. https://www.studiolhp.com/artworks/

    I have created a new problem, also only in cell phone size.
    for my page on desktop
    https://www.studiolhp.com/artworks/wppaspec/oc1/cv0/ab2

    I increased the size of thumbnail images (325) and thumbnail frames (350) and I love the way the image titles display below each image. On cell phone, however, the thumbnails are smaller than the cover image and they line up to the right of the box instead of inside the box. Before, when the images were smaller, they were inside the box.

    same with this page:
    https://www.studiolhp.com/albums/?wppa-album=2&wppa-cover=0&wppa-occur=1

    I would like to make the thumbnail images on both cell phone pages automatically appear the same size as the cover image on the artworks page and to have them appear inside the box.

    I love the way my slideshow looks on desktop. Thank you!
    I would also like to make the slideshow images on the cell phone automatically appear larger, same size as the cover image on the artworks page.

    How can I do these two things?

    Make the thumbnail frame width not larger than the thumbnail size ( i.e. 325 in Table I-C3 ). You may need to increase the minimum spacing in Table I-C5

    I tried both suggestions and the images are still to the right of the box, still small. Slide show image is still smaller than cover image also.

    Here are my settings for 1C. Do you see anything wrong?

    a HA!
    I unchecked item 6: 6 Auto spacing Space the thumbnail frames automatic.

    and now they are the correct size and inside the box on the prints page https://www.studiolhp.com/artworks/wppaspec/oc1/cv0/ab2

    Still no luck, but I am working on increasing the size of the image in the cell phone slide show. any suggestions?

    I enabled the lightbox function in VI B 5 and now touching the regular slide show image on the cell phone invokes the lightbox slideshow which is bigger.

    Thank you for a brilliant and highly versatile plug-in.
