IMAGES Not Showing Up in Gallery

Having followed all the instructions for uploading/extracting and customizing the DCG Gallery, It shows up on the home page of the development site I am working on using Studiopress' Education Theme, however, the images are not showing up in the gallery.

The excerpt from the post is showing up. The title is showing up. However, I am getting a "loading" bar where the image should be.

I have checked all of my settings for the DCG and I have checked inside my Post Edit window as well to make sure that I correctly added content where it should be in the sidebar widget for your gallery. This is all in Wordpress 3.1 using the Studiopress Education Theme that utilizes your gallery in the demo of the theme framework.

The URL of my development site for this client is:

http://dev.pcipconsulting.com/

If you go there and see an image in the homepage gallery, then I figured it out. But as for now, it doesn't work and I appreciate any prompt assistance in resolving this problem!!

Thank you! Susan

Well, that was easy! As it turns out, I needed to have at least 2 posts in order for the images to show up in the Gallery on the homepage.

For all you developers out there – I think it might be a good tip to create at least 2 generic posts on your client's development site, using at least 1 image as well in the post or page as you create your theme for your client. I had only 1 test post and that is why the DCG Gallery did not work properly. As soon as I added another test post with an image, the gallery worked great!!

I'm glad to know you are here Studiograsshopper! Thank you so much for creating a wonderful Gallery. It is clean, easy to set up, dynamic, and user friendly. Exactly what I was looking for for my client – who does not understand how to mess around in code. You made it all very intuitive.

Gratefully,

Susan Vaughn

Hi Susan,

Yes indeed, when using mootools the DCG needs 2 images in order to work. I hate to say "I told you so", but this is mentioned in the FAQ and the README file. Smile

Anyway, glad you got it working and thanks for posting back with your results. Smile
