Simplex Gallery has some updates

I created a F.A.Q (frequently asking question ) for this template .You can see it here
It's such a busy time , I want to make these updates in some days before but it was delayed till now .
Here is the time these updates come to you .Thanks to Evan Kirkland and others who helping me find the bugs and give me advices to fix them .

There are two updates for this template . They are :
1,Including comment system to this template
2,Enable widget function in the footer .



Live demo | Download

Download and installed it as usual .You can see instruction to install Simplex Gallery here

With this template ,to show up comment page ,you need to set comment system in Full-page mode by go to Setting -->Comment and checked on Full-page at Comments Form Placement

To make the search function work properly ,in the post ,beside adding image tags as we did before ,you need to add a comment line to describe the content of image .For example :
<!-- cat animal eyes fur -->
<img src="catimage.jpg" title="Cat" alt="cat"/>
Because Blogger search can't search with post contain only image ,so adding a comment line as above will make blogger find out our posts easier .
At this time ,I hope you interested in these new updates !
Note for you all : Recently ,I received a lot of comments and message complaining why this template duplicate the comment line when click to thumbnail . Why this error occurred ? It's because you don't add title attribute to img tag . So I have to repeat the syntax to add image to this gallery template :
<!-- cat animal eyes fur -->
<img src="catimage.jpg" title="Cat"/>
 The comment line <!-- cat animal eyes fur --> is for searching your post easier .
 And if you don't add the title attribute ,you will see the duplicated comment lines .
If you have free time ,I hope you make some search in this blog or take a look on other comments .It's faster than make a question in comments form and wait for me to answer .

  3. @Vaibhav : You can edit your post as the structure I mentioned :
    <img src="your image url" title="title of your image - required" />
    remove other attributes and I think it will work .
    @Dating Mariage : I attached folder of images in template package file ,so you can upload images to your host .

  5. Like everone else is saying, thank you for the great template. It's the best one I've seen and I've searched quite a while.

    I have updated my blog with the newest version and I still have only 7 thumbnails rather than 9. Is there anything I can change? 9 would make the site more centered.

    My site is: http://richardallenmcintyregallery.blogspot.com

    Great job, and thanks for all your hard work!

  12. @Jayson C.Ganir : Sometime searchform can't work perfectly . Because content of post is only image ,so it's hard for blogger to find exactly which post user need .Adding a comment line is a solution for Blogger regonize content of post ,but it's not a perfect solution ,so sometime ,you see searchform can't work .
    I tried ,but still haven't got any idea.

  14. I have a question that may or may not be associated with your template. When I load my site, the picture that is the main one loads first in the bottom left hand corner, then after a second or two it justifies to the proper formatting when the site finishes loading. It seems like there is some code that calls the pictures to be loaded before the site does, is there anyway to modify it to load the formatting first and then the pictures? Your demo site appears to have it working, but my live site does not. Advice is appreciated because I really love this design.

  15. Upon further investigation it seems the demo site does it briefly too. Maybe it is a setting on my firefox/IE? It shows up on both.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Thanks for the comments! I was thinking the same thing too, but unfortuantely my photos are linked through facebook and are a set file size. Right now they are anywhere from 20-80kb in size which does not seem too significant. I've noticed that firefox loads perfectly fine 99% of the time, and IE it has the issue come up almost every single time.

    Is there a way to write a fade-in for the overall site everytime a link is clicked for an adjustable time (say one second) such that if I were to click a link the page would go black while everything loads, then fade in a split second later once time has passed? I tried messing with the individual fade speeds on the blog but it seems to be an initial loading thing like you mentioned rather than fading in the image. So is there a workaround like this that could be possible?

    I really appreciate the help and advice, I love the template. I tried tons of photolog templates and this is the only one that actually worked for me with my low HTML knowledge

  17. @Sourgout : upload your image which will be used as favicon to an image hosting ,such as photobucket . open template file and paste this line after ]]></b:skin>
    <link href=''favicon_url' rel='shortcut icon'/>
    That's all

  32. Hey. I'm starting to use your template which I find absolutely great. I have the old version and I would like to have the comment section without having to upload the new version and then do all the modifications I did to your initial template version.

    So please there is any way to edit the html text to get the comments section?

    ReplyDelete
  33. Hi!
    How I can show the thumbnails in the vertical? Its more easy to see the pics without turn down the page. Please help me!

  34. @ MOK- well bro, in TAURUSMEDIA, the flashing text that you have seen is not a flash. It is merely a text. marque

  36. Hello nhamngahanh,

    Like everyone else I truly appreciate your genius in creating this template.

    Project Dragma hqd asked about the issue of pics being stretched. But before you could answer he had resolved the issue.

    The odd thing is that it does not stretch on my computer but it does on others.

    Could you please advise on how to prevent pics from stretching when uploaded.

    Could it be a matter of taking out the s1600?
    If so, is there an administrative way of taking it out automatically?

    Thank you,

    TKG

  37. Hi,

    I've got to say, this has got to be the most awesome template ever ... and it's free!

    Kudos to you! =)

    One question though - is it possible, to add some narration at the bottom of each pic? After the title, just maybe to add some metadata.. (just asking though - by itself it is already a superb template)

    ReplyDelete
  38. Great template! Is there an easy way to create another page that would have contact information and nothing else. Everytime I try and create a new page in google it comes up with same code for pictures. Not sure how to change it.

    Thanks!

  56. Mr.nhamngahanh , i am wondering, is it possible to add gadgets/widgets that enable visitors to "like" the pictures through their facebook accounts? or twitter and google plus functions? It would be easier to share and link with more people. Thanks in advanced
