Welcome to the portal of RSGallery2

RSGallery2 is one of several gallery extensions/components for the well known CMS Joomla! RSGallery is around since the Mambo days and is orginally developed by Ronald Smit. Since then, RSGallery has evolved into what it is nowadays. Although always developing, RSGallery2 is produced with the user in mind first.

Ultimate Simplicity
The simplest gallery you can ever think of... You only need a few clicks to install it through Joomla's install manager. A few more to create your own galleries. Your website with a gallery is ready to go within a couple of minutes, and simple to customise to reflect YOU.

Incredible Features
RSGallery2 is very feature rich; just to name a few: mass (batch) uploading of images. Users having their own gallery where they can upload and share their images, watermarking, resizing and for the advanced user an own templating system.

Active community
RSGallery2 offers high quality support with its active community and it's own team. Just do a search on the forums over here and probably your question is already answered. If not, please post your problem in the appropriate category.

Will it always be free?
RSGallery2 is released by the GPL licence and will be free to use (as in free beer). If you like the project and want to give something back, please help out other users in the forums and share your code. In case you want support us financially, please consider a donation

RSGallery2 Single Image Display plugin is now available for Joomla 2.5!

February 19, 2012, 04:38:07 PM by mirjam | Views: 1379 | Comments: 0

The RSGallery2 Single Image Display plugin is now available for Joomla 2.5! And the plugin has two additions: the ability to use Joomla Modal popup and the option to clear floats after the image.

Download version 3.0 for Joomla 2.5 in the Files section at JoomlaCode (look for plg_rsg2_singledisplay) and Enjoy!

Notes RSGallery2 Single Image Display plugin
This plugin will replace {rsg2_singledisplay: imageid, size, caption, format, clearfloat} in
articles with the corresponding RSGallery2 image.

imageid: Backend > Components > RSGallery2 > Items: use the number from the ID column (required).
size: thumb, display or original (optional, default is display).
caption: true (use the item desciption as a caption) or false (no caption) (optional, default is false).
format: text-align style property (optional)
clearfloat: both, left, right or false: when not set to false this inserts a div CSS element after the image with clear property both, left or right (optional, default is false)

Examples:
{rsg2_singledisplay:9999,thumb,true,left;float:left, left}
{rsg2_singledisplay:2,display,false,right, float:right, both}
{rsg2_singledisplay:42}.

Plugin Options
Different 'popup' options are available: no popup, use of Link and Link Text (which are parameters of the item), normal popup, Joomla modal and Highslide.

Important note on the Highslide effect:
Highslide JS is an image, media and gallery viewer written in JavaScript (see http://highslide.com). The Highslide JS for Joomla plugin (available at http://joomlanook.com) eposes all of the flexibility of Highslide JS through a clear and concise configuration screen. To use the Highslide effect with this RSGallery2 Single Image Display plugin you need to have the Highslide JS for Joomla plugin installed and enabled!
NOTE: If you intend to use Highslide JS on a commercial website you MUST purchase a license from the author of Highslide JS. Please go to http://highslide.com/ for more details.

RSGallery2 3.1.0 for Joomla 2.5 and 1.7 is released!

January 24, 2012, 05:51:32 PM by mirjam | Views: 1817 | Comments: 0

Hello all,

We are proud to release RSGallery2 3.1.0 (for Joomla! 2.5.x and 1.7.x).

Note: This version will replace 3.0.1 which does not work on Joomla 2.5.x due to a backwards compatibility issue.

Major changes

Added View Access Level to galleries
- Galleries in the frontend are only shown 1) if the gallery is published and the user has view access, or 2) if the user is the owner of the gallery (a red H icon will indicate unpublished galleries).
- Items (e.g. images) in the frontend are only shown 1) if the gallery to which they belong to is published and the user has view access for the gallery, or 2) if the user is the owner of the gallery to which the item belongs and the item is published.
- In My Galleries only those items and galleries are shown for which the user has View Access. Exception: Super Administrators see all items and galleries.
- Note: View Access is not 'inherited': If you're not allowed to see gallery Fruit, then you won't see its subgallery Apples even when you have View Access to that gallery (if there is a menu-item linking directly to the subgallery Apples it will show, it's parent View Access does not matter).
Comment and Vote permission can be set per usergroup and per gallery.
Comment and vote permission is no longer set in the Control Panel > Configuration > tab: Images > Commenting/Voting enabled, but in the Permission settings: Options button for the component and Set Permission button per gallery when editing a gallery (added message upon upgrade about this).
Captcha option for commenting on images: now uses Securimage 3.0 by Drew Philips (www.phpcaptcha.org) and not the SecurityImages component.
Added the possibility of using parameters in Slideshow Parth (template parameters will be saved in future RSGallery2 upgrades). Think of slideshow transition effects, setting background and text colors and setting the size of the slideshow. Instructions:
- Go to the frontend and view a slideshow (this creates a params.ini file in the slideshow parth template directory, only when this file exists (and is writable) you can save your settings).
- View settings: Backend > Components > RSGallery2 > Control Panel > Template Manager > Manage > select: Slideshow_Parth > click: Edit.
- Edit settings and click Save.
Added choice for menu-item that links directly to the slideshow.
Fixed meta description and page title.

Maintenance

Fixed one Backwards Compatibility issue for Joomla! 2.5. The Joomla! team has done a really great job in making Joomla 2.5 backwards compatible with respect to 1.6 and 1.7. However, there are a few Backwards Compatibility issues and one of them does affect RSGallery2 3.0.1.
Created sliders for Configuration’s tab Images.
Removed some unused settings in the Configuration.
Moved Configuration setting FTP Path to Image Upload section and corrected base path information.
Upon Save in Configuration now using Joomla messages instread of RSG2 printAdminMsg
New gallery saves by default to first position, text describing this in Gallery New screen was wrong.

Language

Added full italian (it-IT) translation available thanks to user Scioz.
Corrected missing language strings showing in pagination when you have a paginated list of galleries in the front-end.
Hardcoded textstring “(ex. C:\ffmpeg\ffmpeg.exe)” now translatable.
Removed directory preparedLanguages.

Edit 24 January 2012
RSGallery2 3.0.1 will not work in Joomla 2.5 due to a backwards compatibility issue. We plan on releasing RSGallery2 3.1.0 as soon as Joomla 2.5.0 is released and 3.1.0 is tested on Joomla 2.5.0.
In the mean time, for those interested and only for testing purposes there is an RSGallery2 Nightly Build available that is tested and does work with Joomla 2.5 beta1, beta2 en RC1.
