Hello Tracy, gallery was working ok on the standalone link, but once embedded in the gallery there was a Css+Java Script conflict, I just fixed and tested in the gallery and changes are applied.

OK great. I see it all now. So the way in to each gallery is going to be from the thumbnail first. User will see the thumbnail, and when clicking the thumbnail it will load that gallery page (all in drupal). But what we are finding is that the thumbnail we are receiving for each gallery is only 200px by 200px. Is there a way for us to get a larger/higher rendition of the asset for a higher quality thumbnail?

Hello Tracy, there was a mistake in the specific version I updated the Beta site for the Gallery changes, but I just fixed the 404 error.

Also Cristobal, it seems we have the fixed size issue for the carousel view (you can see all of the gray background instead of the height being the height of the image) This was fixed earlier this summer but seems to have returned https://dev-emedia.pantheonsite.io/node/16
Seems if we render the gallery (Carousel) without IFRAME, it appears with gray background
Is there a way to fix this issue?

I can find notes about the Thumbnail size request, can you remind me please what was the request?

Tracy, about the Carousel, the gray spaces in the top and bottom of the Horizontal images are because this gallery contains some Vertical images, since we don't want the thumbnail-carousel jumping around the height of the Main image is fixed, that is why we added the customization settings on the Carousel, there you can enable the Fixed Dimension option, You can see I set it in your test gallery and now it looks better.

Tracy and Jozzer, Agbu Beta site reindex finished, I configured all new features including the Theme and the lightboxes, I also applied some fixes to the emedia plugin for Drupal and deployed to the tTest site, galleries are looking good there.

Thank you guys. It's looking super. One thing I noticed is they have added 36 galleries. Tracy can I show you how to add a Program field so they can sort them better?

Those galleries are mostly test data except the ones that were created for the Youth Programs this summer. I'm going to clean up the test data soon. I'm not sure what the best filter would be, because sometimes it is for an event not a program? If the galleries are sorted by newest created on top, i don't think it will be an issue, but we'll see
Tracy

But for sure, maybe a way to at least filter out the galleries that are for the youth programs, that would be helpful, since they are all mixed together

Hi Cristobal. I am trying to sort the images in my existing gallery, named September 26 Sample Gallery but the feature does not appear to be working for me? My steps:
1. Click on Galleries tab
2. Open September 26 Sample Gallery
3. From Lightboxes tab, cannot drag and drop to reorder
Can you let me know the correct steps or what I am doing wrong?

Hello Tracy, please try following:
-Refresh you Java Script in the browser (ctrl+F5)
-Remember tat first step is to Frag & Drop images from the "Unsorted" tab to the "Published" tab, then in this tab you will be able to sort the images.
Please let me know if that works for you.
