The is a huge drawback in unite gallery for me. There it no way to sort, search or to have any order for the gallery (I should say items/categories since there is no meaning for the gallery name, u can have one for the whole site). Is there any way you'll add some way to search for or order by first/last added (in the short code) and check box to delete the multiple categories?
It should be possible to arrange the items manually from the admin interface, in the same way you can sort articles - click on sort by order (top left of images table) - then if it is Joomla 3 you can drag and drop, otherwise - the old joomla 2.5 way.
The oldest item always has the highest ID. So sorting by ID will give you this outcome in the admin.
In the front end display, you can limit the number of images. If you sort them in the backend - you will get your preferd images.
Finally, it is also possible, via a template override which I can implement for you, to have a layout of the module where it will display the latest images, regardless of the order in the images manager.
I hope that covers everything, if it does not - please point out what I have missed.
Additionaly, if these solutions do not work for you, I can refund you
Oh, I never ask for a refund even if I never use some extension, I have always consider it as my small contribution to the Joomla community and any way, the gallery is great, professional in code and most important, it's just what I was looking for - a modern and mobile friendly way to display a gallery.
I do use j3.x so I do have drad&drop in the items (and items categories), but it dose not solve my issue. Never mind, i'll handle it when i'll get to my 1001 category (in a year or two i guess). I wonder if you guys offer customization service so I will be able to use it in an easier way? for example, when I click on add category it will allow me to enter the name, ability to search (or better, to show last created category first) when I generate short code and choose the category.
Now I wonder if my logic of using unite gallery is right (I use it only for content):
1. I create a gallery which it's basicaly the layout I wish to use (I use two layout for the whole site).
2. I create new cat and add the times I wish to display in the article.
3. I use the short code and choose the cat I wish to display and paste the code in the article.
Is that the right way to use the gallery in my case?
By shortcode are you reffering to {loadmodule} / {loadposition}? because the wording you use are is not clear to me (doesnt make it wrong though). So I will go over the proccess and you can see if this is what you meant also:
- Add images to categories as you see fit. - Create module instance of mon_unitegallery. Configure it with the category, or categories that you want. You can assign several categories and the category nav appears on top automatically, so if you have many images you can easily divide them into sub categories. - Publish it in page + position OR assign to position and include that in content using module plugin {loadmodule XX} OR {loadposition XX}
