Hi, on our server Imagick is isntalled and working fine we tested with custom code but plugin says its not installed and the option is disabled (to use Imagick).

Any idea what could be the issue?

Hi, Thanks for the wonderfull plugin.

Can you please let me know is there any way to remove title from the gallery.

Hi Dan,

As always, LOVE the plugin. Best plugin *evah*!

Building a new site. Using the exact same settings I’ve always used in all the installations. With this CSS:

document-icon img {
width: 500px !important;
}

Max Thumbnail dimensions set to 500 x 500.

But you can see the thumbnails are more 200 x 200. I’ve deleted the thumbnails, regenerated them, and yet I’m not getting anywhere.

What’s even stranger is that I went to one of the first sites I built, JUST to review the CSS and setup. After I saved the setup, all of THAT site’s thumbnails went to 200 x 200, too.

You can compare what I’ve always been able to display before today here:

I’m sure I’ve done something wrong, but for the life of me can’t figure out what. If you can point me in the correct direction, I’d be most appreciative.

After resizing the ‘Maximum thumbnail dimensions,’ my PDF thumbnails disappeared following the update.

Is it correct to assume that it won’t work with GD2?

Hello,

Thanks for this job !
do you have an update to display the AVIF format ?
THANKS

Hello!
I need to display a list of PDF files with a thumbnail of the first page. I’ve only found the Document Gallery plugin to do this. As it requires imagemagick as a dependency, I have also installed it.
I use WordPress 6.4, Document Gallery 4.4.4 and imagemagick-engine 1.7.8.
In my site admin, everything seems to work fine: I create an image gallery with the Gutenberg block, then I upload PDFs via “Add to Document Gallery”.
But in the end, no files are uploaded.
No php errors in the logs.

Thanks for your help.

Hi Dan:

I'm the Admin and Tech for the Vixen Owners Association (VOA).
vixenrv.org

I just installed your "Document Gallery" WordPress Plugin.

Is it compatible with WordPress v 6.4.2 ?

I'm using "Simple Membership" v 4.4.2

I don’t want to mix our VOA Library files within the Media Folder.

What do you suggest to populate a list on a Page named "Manuals," for instance, with files that already reside on a Folder named "Manuals" ?

I’d use the template for 12 different Pages and Folders.
The Folder paths have a total of 1,000 files of PDF, MP4, JPG, and XLS files.

The paths to the categories look like:
/wp-content/uploads/library/manuals
/wp-content/uploads/library/parts
/wp-content/uploads/library/news
etc.

I had no trouble understanding the DG Settings, which are clear, however I do not understand how the Files get to be connected to the display Page.

Is there a video demonstrating the process?

I’m a photographer, movie maker and author. I’ve used html to build, mostly hand-coded, Web sites since 1995.

Thank you for your assistance.

Demian

I have a site that uses different galleries for different pages. Each page has a different color. The font color for the galleries needs to be different depending on the page.

Using this shortcode I was able to pull just the documents for the particular page:

[dg id=1 attachment_pg=”false” paginate=”true” ids=”1075,1073,1074,1072,1071,1070″]

The Custom CSS has two entries:

.document-gallery .document-icon a {
font-size: 18px;
color:black;
line-height: 21px !important;
}

.document-gallery-1 .document-icon a {
font-size: 18px;
color:white;
line-height: 21px !important;
}

I’m *assuming* document-gallery-1 would refer to id-1 . . . ? But the font color for that shortcode still shows up black.

Gotta be something dumb I’m doing. ??

Hi, I was so happy to see your plugin! but I am unable to get it to work… I am using WP6.4.2 and ghostscript ist 9.56.1

How do I setup adoptiveness of the gallery? If I choose 6 icons per row, when looking on this page on mobile, I can only see them stand closer to each other. They do not go to the next line. If I choose 3 icons per line, they look awful on 1920×1080 screens. I tried changing the css, but no help. Please advice

Hi,

Everything is up to date on the website, but we received this error message, please be so kind and help to fix it.

Thank you very much.

Is there a workaround to activate Ghostscript if exec() not available? Our site is hosted at Kinsta and they don’t allow exec() so while plugin has found GS I am getting message: “NOTE:?exec()?is not accessible. Ghostscript will not function.”

Trying to use the Plugin. But it doesn’t give me the option to create the gallery with the Plugin Created?

The latest published version of Document Gallery (4.4.3) produces a Fatal Error whenever WordPress is in Debug mode. I tracked this down to a misuse of the implode function here:

/inc/class-gallery.php – Line 542:

$comment .= '<!-- Attachment IDs: ' . implode( $ids, ', ' ) . ' -->' . PHP_EOL;

PHP documentation states that implode() takes a separator and an array, in that order. So the above should be:

$comment .= '<!-- Attachment IDs: ' . implode( ', ', $ids ) . ' -->' . PHP_EOL;

EDIT: I see this bug was fixed in 4.4.4 – but this version is only in the repository – not yet published. Is this version still in development? When can we hope to see it pushed live?

Earlier this week we pushed out a release which addresses the PHP 8.1 incompatibilities previoulsy reported.

Next phase, now in progress, is to fully integrate Document Gallery functionality into the new WordPress editor. This will take some time, but is the clear next step to maximize the plugin’s usefulness.

If you have feature requests, or other bugs you’ve spotted that are not addressed in the latest patch release please don’t hesitate to post here. We’ll be working over the coming days and months to get as much built out as possible.

Hello, while updating our site from PHP 7.4FastGCI to PHP 8.0Fast GCI, errors were found in Document Gallery that prevented the update from finishing. Have others reported issues with it? I am not a tech person, so I am looking for suggestions to remedy the situation.
Thank you,

Hi @danrossiter, @demur

Your great plugin looks abandoned. I don’t know the reasons, but if you want I would be happy to adopt it.
I use it for myself, and for me, it wouldn’t be a big problem to keep it updated.

If you want you can write me using the contact form at https://josemortellaro.com/contact/

Have a great day

Jose

Hello,

Trying to use Document Gallery plugin:

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Class “DG_Gallery” not found in /srv/data/web/vhosts/—-.co.uk/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/document-gallery-3/inc/class-gallery.php:6

Why oh why… any ideas, please?

Thanks

I’ve been using the plugin for 3 years on my 2 separate websites. But now it needs to be updated.
Update the plugin
Update the plugin

Update the plugin

Please please please

I’m trying to modify the html output by using the dg_icon_template filter (I copied the example from the installation notes & modified it). It’s all working as expected except that thumbnails aren’t being generated. I’ve used the %img% tag to display the thumbnail but this just shows document-gallery/assets/icons/pdf.png

I translated the plugin to es_AR (adding several strings that were missing from the es_ES file), and I’d like to send it to you for review, if you want it. Ping me if you do, and it’s all yours!
I got the new strings doing a Sync with Loco Translate, but perhaps the pot file is not set up properly? The strings are translated, but I still see them in original English in the plugin settings.

Does anyone knows of a similar plugin to DG? i need a replacement fast as it has not been updated in 3 years.

You should use css icons ^^
https://github.com/colorswall/CSS-file-icons

For the preview of docs… I don’t like too much the monthly payment. I’m on a volunteer website. I understand you want to earn some money but it would be more wise to think about a business model for small pockets too. By the number you would gain more. Why didn’t you make a credit system so we can buy more credits as we need ?
It sounds expensive for my usage on a monthly basis.

Very nice plugin anyway ! Thx !

I (we all) need an update for Document Gallery.

I’ve installed Ghostscript on my server and updated the path to it in the Document Gallery “advanced tab” in admin. Imagick is installed as well.

When I go to create a document gallery, I use the text element within WPBakery (as I’ve done on other sites no problem), and I can create a gallery, and thumbnails are created … I see them through SFTP … but they aren’t being utilized on the front end of the website … it shows the default PDF icon thumbnail instead of the thumbnail created from the first page of the PDF (the real thumbnail).

Need help, please … I need this for about 25 websites.

You can see DG creates the thumbnails and places them in media library, but it does not use them on the front end:

I will to pay for a Pro version.

Hello there. I have been using your plugin for 1 year. It’s a great add-on. But please update. For example, thumber.co doesn’t work. Thumbnails cannot be fully previewed. Such a nice plugin needs to be updated. If necessary, I am willing to pay for the pro version. It would be nice to have a preview of word, excell, powerpoint files. Please help me. I will be grateful.

My security plugin (Wordfence) has started flagging this plugin as abandoned (as there haven’t been any updates in a few years and the compatibility with the new WordPress version is unknown). Is that true? Are there going to be any updates in the near future? If not, I will likely need to switch plugins to get the flagging of the abandoned plugin to stop.

Thanks.

Hello,

Recently I have upgraded my WordPress to version 5.3.2 and running on PHP 7.3.

Kindly, can someone test it if it works and update it?

Thank you!

I think that this plugin is based on a very good idea. I can imagine that it may be useful as a block in the Gutenberg. I am looking for this but there is no other solution. It may help people with publishing files on WordPress. I am not a good programmer, so I can not help, but only with translation to the Czech language and share my CSS tweaks. We have DG installed for many years on our school intranet, but nobody used it, because using shortcodes is not intuitive at all.

I’ve used this plugin for a long time. I’m on an new hosting platform now (LiquidWeb Managed WordPress. The plugin says that Ghostscript isn’t installed BUT these day’s WordPress generates PDF thumbnails automatically – is there a way to get this plugin to use them?
