How to retrieve all images in an array so that i can loop them according to my needs
]]>Hi,
I just upgraded both WP and your plugin trying to solve the problem, but did not work out.
Problem:
I first open the Manage Gallery popup that is inside the page editor (wp-admin/post.php?post=XX&action=edit).
Then click the Browse on server tab (third tab, name translated from my language).
In this popup the media search (#media-search) is covered by the media file list, maybe because it is in absolute position to the popup and not to the header part of the content.
Can provide screenshots if needed.
What is wrong here?
Hi
Good plugin! Just a suggestion. Is it possible to add custom post type support? For example, I can add my custom post type name into the plugin option field, then it will support custom post type.
Thanks!
]]>Hello!
Your plugin is used in a theme I recently bought.
The problem is that it seems to actually break the Media Library Assistant plugin that is really important for photographers with lots of images.
What happens is that when I do the “Add Media” MLA doesn’t show me any pictures and the loading icon stays there.
Do you think you can have a look?
Thanks a lot!

Hello, I love this plugin, but for some reason in the mobile version of my site I have a black dot on the left side of every thumbnail. Here is a pic on this: https://screencast.com/t/QHc6avoj1q
HOW can I fix that??
Thanks in advance for any help ??
]]>Hi,
is there a simpel way to use the new media interface with this plugin?
I think there are a lot of users which want to use the new one, too.
Regards
]]>In the other thread (now closed) someone wanted to launch the new media interface, rather than the old interface.
Try adding this to the bottom of the gallery-metabox-ajax.js file:
jQuery(‘#manage_gallery’).click(function() {jQuery(‘#insert-media-button’).click();});
I think that might work. Basically, you want to effectively divert the click of the “Manage Gallery” button that comes with Gallery metabox, so that it clicks instead on the “Insert Media” button.
]]>I have a very strange problem with this plugin. For most pages, the plugin works. I see a meta box with the images that are attached to the post.
For some pages though, the metabox does not show up. I do have pictures attached to the page, but there’s no metabox showing them on the edit screen of the page.
I already checked the screen options, there’s no “Gallery Images” option on the pages where I don’t find any Gallery meta box. On other pages, the option is available.
I hope someone can tell me how to fix this.
]]>The plugin worked perfectly until I made more meta boxes. When I click Manage Gallery and try to insert images, the images are inserted into other meta boxes! Can you help me fix this? I really need to use both your plugin and the Advanced Custom Fields plugin. I hope there is a way to stop them from conflicting with each other.
]]>With WP 3.6.x, I think something broke.
In around the function be_gallery_metabox_do_ajax_update
it no longer seems to handle the SCRIPT tag that gets sent back via Ajax.
This function will update the Gallery Metabox on the Post below the Media Manager dialog, when you add a new image. It doesn’t seem to work anymore, so what I did wa s simply moving the line that says
return $form_fields;
to go immediately within this function, rather than AFTER the jQuery.ajax({…}) stuff. True, I now lose out on getting immediate updates the Gallery Metabox beneath, but at least it works!
I wonder if there is some documentation in the Codex on how to make it work anymore? I think the problem might stem from something like the Media Manager is expecting a json string like {"success":true,"data":[{...}]}
Hi,
Is it possible to translate the expressions “Recent work” and “show all” to Portuguese?
What could be happening that on the homepage the gallery doesn’t show the products of one of the categories?
]]>it would be great if the metabox would support sorting the images of the gallery (menu_order). is this maybe a new feature for the next release?
]]>Love this plugin. Its awesome. I think I found a small bug with 3.5.1.
Seems that in 3.5.1, when a user defines what size image to call using “be_gallery_metabox_image_size” it always pulls the source file in, instead of the defined size.
just a heads up. thanks.
]]>We are using your plugin to allow artists (via a custom post type) to manage the images that are attached to their post. This works really well (thank you!) except that we have noticed one thing….
We had an artist who could not see any of their uploaded images in their gallery metabox when editing their post through the WP dashboard. We could see it when logging in as administrators though. At first, I thought this was because the author field for their media entries was left as blank, so I went through the media library and added the author to each of his images. However, I then looked at the plugin code and saw that it should display all images that are attached to the post (regardless of author) anyway. So I’m wondering if the problem is elsewhere… One line of thought I have is that the user role capability for the artist was somehow set so that ‘Upload Files’ was not a checked capability. To your knowledge, if the user role did not have this capability, would that stop the images from displaying in the gallery metabox?
Thanks in advance.
]]>Can you help me understand how it works step by step.
I can’t create a gallery, or add a imagem from the media library.
Thanks.
When I’m on a post and I want to insert a new media from the gallery, I can’t…
When I deactivate the plugin, it’s working again.
I’m having problem adding images to galleries. After clicking “Manage Gallery” I try to add some images already uploaded to the media library. Sometimes I can insert them to the gallery and some times not. If everything works as it should I can just close the media library popup after clicking “Insert” and click “Update Gallery”. But sometimes when I click “Insert” it inserts the image into the content area of the post/page and not to the gallery. The issue is with already uploaded images, images I upload for the first time always work. But already uploaded images dont (some times).
Why is that? I’m using v.1.5 of the plugin.
]]>I love that you can detach images. Would it possible somehow to attach new images from the media library? Possibly saving them into a custom field that can be used later on the front-end? This would allow users not only to use regular attachments but also images already in the library.
I wouldn’t mind “sponsoring” this sort of update ??
Thanks!
]]>I don’t understand how can i display this gallery on page. Plugin works fine and this is exactly what i needed. But i don’t understand i installed plugin, uploaded images and i see them in post page. I save post but in frontend i don’t know how to display this gallery. And i didn’t found any explanation how to display it. Any help?
]]>Is there a plan to update this plugin to use the new media manager interface in WordPress 3.5?
It’s a really useful plugin and provides a great interface that helps our users lots but it’s slightly confusing for them now that the pop up media manager is different to the “Add Media” interface.
]]>LOVE this plugin! Thanks!
Is there a way to preserve the content I’ve added with the be_gallery_metabox_intro hook. When I open the thickbox image upload/manager I lose that content and it reverts back.
Any help is appreciated.
]]>Hello, I was unable to find any licensing terms in the package or at your website. May I know if modification/reuse of this plugin’s code is allowed in my own work and to what extent?
Thank you ??
]]>Awesome plugin. Love it.
Have a request:
Filter the images that show up in the metabox. In my case, I have added additional attachment meta data (a simple enable/disable field). So I was wondering if I could filter the images that appear in the metabox by looping through all the images and invoking the get_post_meta function for each one.
Let me know what you think.
Thanks for your plugin,
Ben
It would be super cool to use this to sort the images. Still, quite nice… thanks.
]]>First of all I love the plugin, however, when I add other metaboxes to the post page the data that has been added of the other metaboxes disappears. I have narrowed it down to your plugin ( a series of elimination activating/deactivating )
Any advise?
(apart from don’t use the plugin…. lol)
Hi Bill
I was using this plugin on a Genesis child theme site.
I then added the WPML plugin and created a translation for an AgentPress listing CPT.
The original listing has images attached. The translation doesn’t show attached images at forsit which should be the normal behaviour I suppose. But then if I opn the Media uploader, images appear in the Gallery Images metabox. Then when I close the media uploader, a popup appears and says “this page has caused an error”.
This is happening on a local dev installation.
I don’t know if the issue is caused by WPML or this plugin though.
Just upgraded to 1.3 and quickly ran into an error that affects custom post types. When opening a custom post type from the edit screen, it is populating the fields with the wrong data. The data seems to be coming from the attachment. Posts still display fine on the front-end. Disabling the plugin resolves the issue and loads the correct data for each field. This problem did not occur in the previous version.
]]>Hi Bill,
I added a feature to your Gallery Metabox plugin so it refresh the contents of metabox via Ajax when image is uploaded/deleted so you don’t need to refresh the page.

}Hi Bill, I’m using your plugin and I’m in a situation where images description is important for the user, so I’d like to be able to see it hovering every images in the metabox.
So I’ve modified line 78 of your plugin file to:
echo '<img src="' . $thumbnail[0] . '" alt="' . get_the_title() . '" title="'.get_the_content().'" /> ';Hope to see this little addition in a future version.
bye!
]]>Hey Bill, I installed your gallery metabox plugin but im only able to see it in pages but not post and custom post type. is it cuz im using the newest wordpress?
Thanks
