Unable to embed images with an apostrophe in the image filename.


Using Jamroom

Not sure if this is just a pmp-art.com issue.
Embedding an image from a gallery into a comment on a group discussion, sometimes does not work. The image appears in the thumbnails in the Embed Local Media (Gallery) pop-up window, but clicking on it has no action.
At the moment I have only one instance of this. The problem is reproducible also in Admin profile.
I downloaded this jpeg image (4MB) and re-uploaded it to a test profile gallery. It still wouldn't embed via the gallery, although it can be embedded by uploading.
I noticed there was an apostrophe in the image filename, so I removed that and uploaded it to the gallery again, after which it embedded from the gallery without any trouble.

Using Jamroom

Thank you very much for your swift response.

Is the new Gallery issue the same problem?

New gallery or album slow to appear in drop-down list


Using Jamroom

OK. Example with Photo Albums, screenshots attached...
On any image (image view or thumbnail), click the camera icon to add it to a photo album.
On the pop-up box, type in a new album name and Create.
Go to another image and click the camera icon. The pop-up list of existing albums doesn't include the one just created. [After 15 minutes, it's still not showing in the list.]
If you start to enter the same album name, it will appear as a suggestion. If you Create that same name , another album with the same name but different ID number is created.

With Galleries...
Update an image and give it a new gallery name. Save changes.
Update another image and the new gallery name is not in the drop-down list of existing galleries. Typing in the same gallery name will put that image in the gallery that was just created. in this case, it doesn't create a new gallery with the same name.
I'm doing this in Admin user, but I will try in an ordinary user in case it's a current user thing.

New gallery or album slow to appear in drop-down list


Using Jamroom

On our site, when a new gallery is created with an image upload, or when a photo album is created, it takes several minutes for this new item to appear in a drop-down list of available galleries/albums.
People often want to add a number of images to a gallery or album one after another, so it is quite frustrating not to be able to choose the one you just created.
How can I speed this up?
Thanks.

Recycle bin - what is saved?


Using Jamroom

Thanks @Paul.
@Strumelia - I was hoping to do a bit of both, but mostly to find things more easily - ours seems to contain loads of deleted comments, tags etc. We would only want to restore deleted profiles, galleries, groups - the big stuff that may have been deleted in error.

Using Jamroom

Is it possible to control which items are saved to the recycle bin?

Thanks.

Suggestions

Thanks for the suggestions @Michael and @Melih -much appreciated.
Sorry I'm not technically skilled on Jamroom, so the pointers are most helpful and I'll look into it.

Suggestions for Lightbox view


Suggestions

Hello all,
We love the lightbox feature on our site which is dedicated to viewing/sharing photos and art. This is a suggestion to make it even better...

1) It would be great if we could have a mini icon on each thumbnail in a gallery view, (like the Photo Album, Edit and Delete icons), which would enable the user to enter a lightbox view starting at that image. Currently, the Lightbox viewer has to start at the first image in a gallery or photo album.

2) I have asked elsewhere if we could have the lightbox view scroll round, so that going 'forwards' from the last image takes you to the first image in the gallery. Also going back from the first image takes you to the last image.

3) If this lightbox icon could be made available on an image view page (i.e. looking at a single image), that would also get around a big issue for us, which is that it's often not possible to see an entire image on screen without scrolling down.
I believe @zachary-moonshine and @strumelia have also asked for this kind of feature, so perhaps it would be a popular one with other JR sites.
