Photonic Gallery Flickr issues

The test post seems to be hidden behind a “Coming Soon” plugin.

Right,forgot that we have our staging site in maintenance mode since no one of the public needs to see our test site.

If you go to this link: https://www.grimmgent.com/stg_bad8f/wp-admin/

Sorry for the inconvenience!

adding multiple pictures: all goes well until I get to the part where you get to select the pictures. They only load to a certain point and the option to click on “load more” is not showing. And we cannot select any of the pictures that are given.

You are not supposed to be able to select anything from there. You can specify tags / search terms in the fields above the photo thumbnails. The final results are shown on your front-end.

– adding pictures from album/set: all goes well and no problems getting the album selected and the pictures shown in the post. But when we click on a picture to open the lightbox, it also opens the Flickr page in a new tab. I’ve been running through the settings several times trying to figure out if one of them would solve that issue, but just can’t find a solution. The lightbox opens as it should though.

This is not from Photonic. You have a separate plugin that is adding this sort of a JavaScript call on each thumbnail:
onclick="javascript:window.open('https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4890/45237676764_81cf625d5a_c.jpg'); return false;"

– adding multiple albums: all goes wel land no problems getting the albums selected and thumbnails shown in the post. But when we click on a thumbnail to get the overlaid popup, it just opens our Flickr page in a new tab. And when I go back to the actual post, it shows the pictures, that are supposed to be in the overlaid popup, as the background of the page and the page is stagnant (can’t click on anything, can’t scroll,…)
The new tab is again being caused by the other plugin you have.

For the overlay showing up behind the content you can resolve it using this under Appearance → Customize → Additional CSS:
.photonicModalOverlay { z-index: 10; }

Hello,

Previously the plugin worked flawlessly for me. Now, I am also having a hard time, namely after last two updates. My Flickr mosaic galleries are not showing, and one gallery with “load more” button does not show images and clicking button does nothing. Could you please help.

Mosaic gallery example: https://antidayton.com/oktobar-2013/

Gallery example (with load more button): https://antidayton.com/galerija-ljiljani/

Kind regards,
A

@antidayton,
Please start your own thread in accordance with forum policies. I will respond to your query there.

Marking this resolved as the original points seem to have got addressed on the test link. Please feel free to reopen this if you still require assistance.

I too am having the same issue as #2 “onclick=”javascript:window.open(‘https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4890/45237676764_81cf625d5a_c.jpg’); return false;”

I’m wondering if you figured out where that was coming from and if you managed to remove it successfully. I can’t seem to fix it.

@sayontan

Re-opened it for one more small issue that we can’t seem to be figuring out.

All the solutions you gave us worked perfectly, but it seems we now can’t get the overlay to go away anymore.

So when we click on one of the selected albums, it opens that album in the overlay and when we click on a photo, it opens up the photo in the lightbox. But when we close that lightbox and then want to close the overlay as well, nothing seems to happen wherever we try to click or what we try to do.

Any suggestions what might be going on here?

Thanks for all the help!

@zmancrow

Yeah, we got that figured out. There was some plugin we used that made all links to external sites open in a new tab and that included photos embedded from Flickr.
So my IT guy just wrote in a piece to exclude Flickr from this setting and that seemed to have fixed it.

Hope that helps you a bit on the right path to a solution ??

You need to disable your admin-bar; the “x” is going behind the admin-bar. What happened is that you put in a padding-top for the photonicModalOverlay, and that is pushing the contents of the overlay below, but leaving the “x” in place.

If you want to move the “x” too (and keep the admin-bar), you can add this:
.photonicModalOverlayScrollable { position: relative }

That seems to have done the trick, thank you for your patience ??
