If i have....

//Number of Images to Display
$galleryimagelimit = 4;

...in my config then on the home display page the collapse menu bar only goes above 3 images and not over the 4th image.

its fine if I set it to $galleryimagelimit = 3;

Number of Columns
The number of columns to display in a single row before splitting down to the next one.

AdminCP - vBa Gallery - Modify Settings - Browse Category Options - Number of Columns:


If that changes other things on your site you do not want Changed below to the # of images you wish to show up.


This is the code you were told to paste into your forumhome.

<!-- start Gallery Images -->
<table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" class="tborder" width="100%">
<thead>
<tr>
    <td class="tcat" colspan="$vba_options[gallery_columns]">
     <a style="float:$stylevar[right]" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('forumhome_gallery_random')">

This also seems not work with Firefox or netscape?

The display when viewing forum home with mozilla firefox (or netscape) its completely collapsed and not showing the images (even with clicking the collapse button nothing shows). - Yet both browsers have no problem with other collapsables, only this hacks one.

I am doing a revamp of the code - There is a lot of garbage in there from 5 other people that made edits to the code since it was 1st designed.

I'll have something soon.

Edited: Beta removed.

I'm trying to add this to my sidebar but nothing shows up
I guess its because I'm trying to add it to my sidebar custom template so how can I make it work there?

Beta Only:
Everyone in general, please do not upgrade your hacks. This is not an "update".
It is for beta testers only.

I need browser compatability and test of $catlimit.

I know of a few phrases that are missing.

Works okay now in Firefox & Netscape
