Im posting this as requested by SS Twitter.

I would really love it if someone would develop a new image gallery module for SS3. I use uncle cheeses image gallery on every site I make and with out it I don't want to move on to SS3. I realise you can put some code together to make simple galleries but we need something as thorough as ImageGallery was.

Thanks!

Hi PP,

 

I’d like this, too and thought of developing something for a migration of a site I developed in 2.4.

 

At least the database scheme should be the same.

 

Should we work together on this?

 

Greetings,

 

wmk

Take a look at this one
https://github.com/frankmullenger/silverstripe-gallery it has a sortable upload field. The implementation cold be improved and it needs to be more modular, but is a good start.

I've been using this one by Optic Blaze http://www.silverstripe.org/all-other-modules/show/20465?start=40#post317980

It uses a GridField, with the bulk upload module.

I will update basic image gallery ASAP (dont think that will be of
much use, but just so you know)

ALSO: I reckon that files and images (and folders) should be sortable
by default AND that the gridfield should support sorting (not sure if
it does), and showing objects using an image (if available).

After having experienced some modules for SS 3, I am using DisplayAnything and I'm quite happy.

I'm the maintainer for https://github.com/frankmullenger/silverstripe-gallery - it basically grew out of a need to manage product images on a new version of SwipeStripe I've been working on. 

I was using a GridField and the SortableGridField module - which works really well for sorting items in a gridfield. But had an issue of not being able to attach a file the first time a record is created (I think this issue still exists).

So instead I extended UploadField (which works really nicely) and added a little js to sort the images. You should be able to use the extended UploadField in this module to manage images on any of your pages by adding it to getCMSFields() like I have done in the GalleryPage class.

Cheers,
Frank

Hi,

 

Display Anything looks good but seems only to be for 2.4?

Hi Frank,

 

GridFieldBulkEditingTools https://github.com/colymba/GridFieldBulkEditingTools are what you’re looking for.

 

Just drag some images to your grid and you get new dataobjects.

 

Cheers,

Hi there,

I have just uploaded a revised version of the my SS3 Image Gallery to GitHub.
Check it out. https://github.com/OpticBlaze/ss3Gallery

Hi,

 

just had a look at your module, I did something similar as an Extension, so I can plug a gallery to existing page types.

 

What I really miss in all ss3 galleries I looked at and what is IMHO the biggest advantage of uncle cheeses image_gallery: you can have more albums per page. I used this even for a shortcode, so I can include gallery strips inside $Content.

 

The only thing I’d change is the configuration. IMHO a global config would be better, cause I don’t want different looking galleries over the whole site.

 

Uncle Cheese: would you mind if we ported your code to SS3? I began building the existing classes using silversmith yesterday, the rest would be exploring, how gridfield can do the job, BulkEditingTools are very helpful.

 

OpticBlaze: do you have a running example of PrettyPhoto? Their website isn?t working atm, so I cannot try out the demos.

 

Cheers,

 

wmk

http://www.no-margin-for-errors.com/projects/prettyphoto-jquery-lightbox-clone/
- seems to work again.

We used to use a lot of Pretty Photo, but Michael from Design City
pointed us to ColorBox. I like that one a lot.

Another thing that i have been working on recently was integrating the gallery with the blog as well. I find that more and more my clients who use blogs want to be able to add a gallery as well into the blog. I still have to package it a bit better but once i do i will upload to github so you guys can check it out.

Here is also another link to a working gallery. This uses the one that i have on github with a stripped down theme that i use for testing.

Hi Frank someone recommended your gallery, and im currently using it in conjunction with this gallery http://tympanus.net/Development/GammaGallery/
It works really well apart from I can figure out how to get the photos to upload to a specific folder! It sometimes works sometimes doesn't...  

$uploadField = new GalleryUploadField('Images', '');
$fields->addFieldToTab('Root.Images', $uploadField);
$uploadField->uploadFolder = "photos";

I'd like to be able to set the folder before uploading photos so they all stay in the same one.

Great work by the way!

Actually it was that did it! oops

$uploadField = new GalleryUploadField('Images', '');
  $fields->addFieldToTab('Root.Images', $uploadField);
  $uploadField->setFolderName('rotate');

that link to DisplayAnything is NOT for SS3.  I wished they would update it though.  It's a good module.

Hey guys,
a question to Opticblaze - did you manage to create that gallery module that's linked to blog? It's exactly what my client was inquiring about. Ability to create an album in gallery for an event, then create a blog entry and link it to that album, so a person reading the blog entry could straight away get to pictures from that album.

Regards,
Wojciech

Hi there,

Yes...see attached. Basically all i did was extend the Blog Module and then just copy some of the code from my gallery module into it. It is of course dependent on sortablegridfield, bulkimageupload and the blog module. If anyone has a better way of combining two classes i would love to hear about it.

Regards
OpticBlaze
