In reply to: [Shashin] Album Not Opening in PrettyPhotoeaston7000: based on your posts here (and my reply this morning) I think this is resolved. If not, let me know.

In reply to: [Shashin] Blank page returned after clicking albumSorry for the late reply. The images are being loaded just fine, but your theme is hiding them. It’s putting the content of the post inside a div named “container” and then hiding all images in it:
#container img, #footer img, #slide img, #slider img, #aside img { visibility: hidden; }Remove that from your theme’s stylesheet and then you’ll see the images.

In reply to: [Shashin] Album goes to Picasa, no album titleSorry for the late reply. It sounds like you’ve worked things out, but I wanted to add:easton7000, you said the files for the footer are not being loaded. It sounds like your theme is missing a wp_footer() call.

In reply to: [Shashin] Problem with Twenty ThirteenSorry for the late reply. It looks like you’ve switched to a different plugin on your site at this point, so I installed Twenty Thirteen on my site to test. The problem is that Twenty Thirteen includes an old version of the jQuery Masonry plugin, which has the imagesLoaded library included in it. This is causing a conflict with Shashin, which includes its own copy of imagesLoaded. Unfortunately it’s not a simple matter of setting Shashin to not use its own copy of imagesLoaded, as Shashin is designed around the current version of imagesLoaded (not the older one in Masonry).
The current version of Masonry does not include the imagesLoaded library. Updating the version of Masonry in Twenty Thirteen to the current one may solve the problem.

In reply to: [Shashin] Sync Control by UserSorry for the late reply. What Shashin does is sync 1/24th of your total number of albums every hour (so all albums are synchronized at least once per day). If you have fewer that 24 albums, it will sync one per hour (it will pick the album that has gone the longest without a sync). So if you have only 1 album in Shashin, it will get synchronized once every hour.
If you want to change how it works, open shashin/admin/ShashinScheduledSynchronizer.php, line 40, you’ll see this line:
$this->arrayShortcode['limit'] = ceil($totalNumberOfAlbums / 24);You can modify the math to get a different number. Keep in mind is that if you sync a bunch of albums at once, it will probably result in a slow page load for whoever visits the site at that time. This is because the WP Cron is not a true cron – it’s triggered by a site visitor who comes to the site around the time of a scheduled event (so if you have a low traffic site, scheduled events can happen later than scheduled).

In reply to: [Shashin] All photos in "None" positionSorry for the late reply. See this page on my site for an example. Here is the shortcode for the pictures shown on the right side, within the post:
[shashin type=”photo” id=”1959,1960″ size=”160″ columns=”1″ position=”right” crop=”y” order=”user” caption=”y”]
If you’re still having a problem, please give me a link to your post with the problem, so I can see it, and let me know the exact shortcode you are using.

In reply to: [Shashin] allow photo download in fancyboxThis is actually a surprisingly difficult thing to do. See here. The HTML 5 “download” attribute works in Chrome and Firefox, but not Safari and IE (and the PHP script shown on that StackOverflow page has security problems). I don’t think I will add this, as I don’t see a simple way to do it reliably for all major browsers.

In reply to: [Shashin] Blog excerpts viewOk – I wasn’t sure if there was a web page where I could see the newsletter – sounds like it’s an email. Send me a message through my contact form at http://toppa.com/contact and then we can email each other.

In reply to: [Shashin] Open Graph (a.k.a. Facebook preview) broken by ShashinSorry I didn’t have a better answer for you. I learned quite a bit about Open Graph in the process. My hunch is that Open Graph is picking up on the word “caption” in my “shashinCaption” class because it can’t find any other tags on the page that look to it like a description of the page (the link text it’s grabbing is a link within the div that has that class). But making words like “caption” off-limits for CSS classes from plugins seems to me like not the right solution.

In reply to: [Shashin] Picasa album problems and moreI haven’t heard of the “Could not remove old plugin” problem before. If you search the forum you will find other discussions of this problem with other plugins (that’s what I just did). It sounds like a file permissions problem on your site (that is, it’s not anything that’s wrong with the Shashin code itself).
I recommend using FTP to delete your existing Shashin files (and make sure to de-activate Shashin in the plugins panel first), and then install the new version also via FTP. See here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Managing_Plugins#Manual_Plugin_Installation
Hopefully, by manually deleting the old files first, that will get rid of the file permissions problem that was preventing automatic upgrades (so you can do future upgrades automatically again).
If you’re still having problems after upgrading with Shashin reading your feeds, please let me know the specific error message you are getting.

In reply to: [Shashin] Album TitleAdding Flickr support has been on my to-do list for years, but I’ve never gotten to it – mainly because the Flickr API is unnecessarily complicated, and I don’t use Flickr (and no one is paying me for my Shashin work – I get very few donations). But for the next version of Shashin I’m going to focus on expanding the services it works with. No promises, but I’ll try for at least some basic Flickr support.

In reply to: [Shashin] Album TitleThese are both good ideas. Having a “no redirect” option should be straightforward to add to Shashin. I’ve added it to the issues list: https://github.com/toppa/Shashin/issues/56
I don’t see any license information available in the Picasa API, so that means I can’t show it in Shashin.
I hadn’t heard of OpenPhoto. It looks like a great project. I’ll check it out – maybe I can integrate it with Shashin.

In reply to: [Shashin] Loose lightbox effectIf you still want to use All in One Event Calendar, are you using the “lite” version, or the “standard” version? It looks like this plugin can cause problems. See here
http://wordpress.org/support/topic/if-our-plugin-crashes-your-site-please-read-here
and here:
http://support.time.ly/do-i-have-a-theme-or-plugin-conflict/
If you have followed the instructions on those pages, let me know. There is something in the calendar code that is preventing Shashin from loading one of the javascript libraries it needs.
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Shashin] Loose lightbox effectCould you try temporarily deactivating your All in One Event Calendar plugin? I think it may be interfering with Shashin. Let me know if that fixes it – then I will try to make it work with the Calendar plugin.
