Major Features

Multiple Instances You can run an unlimited number instances of the gallery on the same forum with same set of files! Each instance can have a different look and feel to it, and with enough work can have a completely different function because of the system we built it on.

AJAX integration We used AJAX wherever we could to help reduce the page reloads

Automatic resizing and thumbnail creation As long as your server can handle it, the users can upload whatever size pictures they want. The gallery will control the size displayed and stored, and will even create a thumbnail, all automatically. Users no longer have to worry about resizing their images to fit what your forum specifies. If you do not have a server with the power to resize images (GD image library can get pretty memory intensive) then you can set the gallery to reject images that do not fit into your size criteria.

User Albums Users can create their own image albums to organize and display sets of their images. Albums can also be set to hidden and/or password protected. So users who want to have images for only certain friends or not visible to anyone else at all can easily organize them.

All the buttons are ticked, and we have the forum one just not cms

Might need to look at it www.xboxplayers.co.uk

Do the images not show or is the whole box missing as well?

Is there another permission that needs to be checked? Thanks

Members can delete their own albums if they go to their profile then click the Browse Albums button. They should be able to anyway. If they can't, let me know and I'll check on it.

Dylan this still remains a issue. Is there something I can do to show the images in the proper categories? Your other suggestion for my other problems seems to have worked. Thanks for your support.

Hello,

I have a problem with displaying images in the gallery, details are right on the outside of the forum. How to fix this problem, it is a test forum for the moment, attached a screen of worries. And how to reduce a little the size of the images and make them clickable to display the full size image.
Sorry for my english, I'm french.
Thank you in advance

Categories can be added by going to DBTech - Gallery>Category Management. Then scroll down to the bottom of the page and click Add Category.

Hi,
i have one question: now i have vbGallery and i would buy DBTech Gallery Pro version, but i don't see the possibility for open images in full size ( lightbox, highslide, etc etc )
It's possible this or am i wrong?
How can i display photo in full size? Now in vBGallery i have medium thumb and if i click to photo i have fullsize image with highslide effect.
DBTech Gallery has enlarge option image?
Thanks
Antonio

IDEA!! (we have the Pro License)

Please extend the sitemap to include Gallery images.
refer vB code: ./includes/cron/sitemap.php and ./includes/class_sitemap.php
