Hi alexkir,
The photo seller search functionality will search ALL galleries/photos which are part of the photo seller system.
The search will target the following photo fields:
– photo description and alt text
– photo caption/excerpt
– photo title
– photo name
You can also manually add keywords to any of the above fields of a photo – simply go to the gallery settings for a particular gallery and scroll down to the photo list and click the edit link for a photo. That will take you to the photo edit window and you can add captions, descriptions etc.
The photo seller plugin will read only keywords/descriptions etc from EXIF and IPTC data from the photo file during upload time and it will use that (if available) as part of its search too.
Currently it doesn’t use the camera information but this info is automatically stored in the meta table by wordpress anyway (if available).
In terms of search terms the plugin will find single words or multiple words if they appear in the correct order.
No there is no single image display shortcode.
Were you thinking along the lines of showing just one photo as it would appear in the photo details page?
You may need to select the menu name because you might have more than 1 menu.
That appearance menu is purely wordpress functionality and not controlled by the photo seller.
It could be that your theme has modified the way the appearance menu works.
Do not delete the page. The plugin needs that page to function. You can hide the page from showing it in the menu.
From the wordpress admin panel, go to:
Appearance -> Menus
Then remove that page from your menu.
The album page shows thumbnails of galleries, but I want a page that combines galleries and new ones don’t start on a new line.
Can you show me your album page?
As stated previously, the following page is most likely what you are after:
[http://hailefinephotography.com/photogallery/]
But it is currently looking a bit messy in your case. I will send you an email to get login details to see if I can fix it.
Yes – the photo seller has the photo details page for that purpose. So when users click on an image from the gallery, it will show that single image. Is the photo details page not working for you?
You have sandbox enabled – can you please use your real paypal account?
Also I noticed that when using the sandbox I wasn’t automatically redirected back from paypal to your site after the payment. This means that you haven’t configured your paypal account properly.
1) “Auto Return” (this should be enabled)
2) “Payment Data Transfer (optional)”
3) Find the “Instant Payment Notification (IPN)” setting and please enable this feature if it’s not enabled.
steiness,
I just performed a test purchase and everything worked fine. I successfully received the email.
I suspect that the UTF8 changes fixed your issue. Please keep observing your system and if you see a repeat of the problem let us know.
hygge2work,
1) Can you please enable debug for the photo seller – go to the Settings menu and then to the Testing and Debugging section. Select “yes” for Enable Logging.
2) Can you setup a dummy test gallery with a price of 0.01 so I can make a test purchase?
In addition to the above, can you please ensure that you have configured your paypal account settings to have the correct utf8 encoding? See :
Modifying the shortcode content for the above page is not how to achieve what you want.
The page you describe is meant to only display the individual photo thumbnails which are contained inside “gallery 4”. It should not show thumbs for other galleries too.
The page which does what you are after should be the main gallery page. ([http://hailefinephotography.com/photogallery/])
But that looks a little untidy currently because you have broken thumbs and differing dimensioned photos etc. Have you tried changing the “Gallery Selection Template” setting to see if the other template looks better?
Hi,
1) Can you please enable debug for the photo seller – go to the Settings menu and then to the Testing and Debugging section. Select “yes” for Enable Logging.
2) Can you setup a dummy test gallery with a price of 0.01 so I can make a test purchase?
Yes – the albums feature will achieve what you are looking for.
You can create an album which contains specific galleries fitting the subject/category you require.
All you need to do is add a price value for the “Complete Gallery Price” field in one of your digital variations in your existing price list which is linked to the gallery you want to sell.
are there any plans for such?
We are always adding new features and improvements to the plugin. We currently have quite a lot of higher priority items to complete first.
If you wish to fast track this feature we can always do a custom work request for you. Let us know and we can get more details regarding exactly what you want and give you a quote.
