In reply to: [Document Gallery] only one columnHi cmaurand,
You’ve run into the fact that descriptions and multiple columns are by design mutually exclusive 🙂
Descriptions disable column functionality as they generally take up too much horizontal space to make sense in anything more than a single column. You can either set
descriptions=false, or if you really want columns and descriptions you can see a solution here.-Dan

In reply to: [Document Gallery] Connection IssuesHi Rick,
Are there any entries in your PHP error log? Can you please also paste the current configuration for Document Gallery (under
Dashboard -> Settings -> Document Gallery -> Advanced).-Dan

In reply to: [Document Gallery] Connection IssuesThanks for clarifying! Could you elaborate on exactly what JP is reporting as the problem? A screnshot would be very helpful (assuming it’s reporting the issue viably somewhere). I’d like to try and find in code where JP is detecting the problem and that may help me isolate what DG might be doing to trigger the issue.

In reply to: [Document Gallery] Connection IssuesHi Rick,
There haven’t been any other reports of any such issues and I run JetPack alongside DG on multiple of my WP installs. Can you do me a favor and disable all other plugins except for JP and DG and see whether the problem resolves? If it does, then you’ve got another plugin going rogue.

In reply to: [Document Gallery] Should the doc / docx lightbox work out of the box?Hi Roy,
Document gallery does nothing related to embedding full documents inside webpages — this is a default behavior in many modern browsers for PDFs (but not Word documents). Document gallery simply generates 1-page previews of documents which are displayed in a gallery format. It also does not have lightboxes. I suspect you have DG configured to open the attached file (rather than the attachment page) and have a third-party plugin that is opening the links in lightboxes, which results in the full document being displayed inside of the lightbox.
So yes, for what DG does Word documents are supported (by way of a Thumber subscription), but this will only provide the 1-page preview that Document Gallery provides, not the full document embedded in the browser.
Does that answer your question?

In reply to: [Document Gallery] Document Gallery adding Thumbnails manually not workingHi Daniel,
You are indeed correct. I thought you were mirroring the issues with the “Insert Media” dialog reported by Sur, which is definitely a client-side issue.
This issue is server-side and related to another issue reported here, which I’ve just resolved. I’ll have a new version out shortly.
Thanks so much for your patience in this matter!

In reply to: [Document Gallery] Document Gallery adding Thumbnails manually not workingCan either of you tell me what browser you’re using? We cannot reproduce anything like this locally.
Also, Daniel, can you please perform the test described above for Sur? Disabling all plugins and switching to a default theme to see if the issue persists.

In reply to: [Document Gallery] Thumbnails disappearedHmm… Well I’m at a loss. The one option I have left, if you are comfortable with it, is that you can send me login credentials for an admin account on your site and I can poke around and see if anything stands out as problematic. If you’d like to go this route, you can email credentials to me here: http://danrossiter.org/contact-me.

In reply to: [Document Gallery] Thumbnails disappearedMartin,
I’ve taken a look at the DG output in your sample page and the plugin believes that thumbnail generation has already been attempted for the attachments in questions (and thus is not trying to generate them again).
I believe you should find these attachments listed on the Thumbnail Management tab under
Dashboard -> Document Gallery. If that is the case, can you please select them all and delete the thumbnails. After that DG should retry generation.-Dan

In reply to: [Document Gallery] Title alignHow about the following?
.document-gallery .document-icon { position: relative } .document-gallery .document-icon .title { top: 50%; transform: translateY(-50%); position: absolute; }-Dan

In reply to: [Document Gallery] Document Gallery adding Thumbnails manually not workingHi Sur,
What you describe is very likely an issue with something outside of DG. My recommendation is for you to disable all other plugins except DG and switch to a default theme and verify that the issue disappears. Assuming it does, you can then re-enable plugins one-by-one until the issue re-appears and at that point you’ll know which one is the culprit.

In reply to: [Document Gallery] Document Gallery adding Thumbnails manually not workingHi Sur,
If you go back to your gallery do the thumbnails not re-generate? If not, my first recommendation would be to uninstall, then re-install the plugin. It is possible that the plugin cache got corrupted at some point and this would knock things loose.
That said, we are looking into the issue with you not being able to manually upload thumbnails. Can you tell me what browser you are using? We’re not yet able to reproduce the issue here, though there is another issue close to what you’re experiencing that could be related.
Thanks!
