Different settings for the same gallery

[WouterVW]

Hi,

Is it possible to have the same gallery displayed using different settings? For instance, have the gallery with a width of 500 and 3 thumbs per line on one page, and show them with a width of 300 and 2 thumbs on a different one?

The reason I'm asking is to try to accommodate iPhone and Android browsers with their smaller screens. So if I detect that the browser is Safari on an iPhone, I can change the width and number of thumbs per line to give those users a better experience.

Thanks in advance,

Wouter

Hey Wouter,

I see what you try to accomplish but I don't see a way to make this happen. Each gallery folder has it's own settings and you can't have two different config-files applied on the same gallery.

What happens if you include different "ki_setup"-files for different browsers is that each time a user with a browser, other than the last user's browser type, opens the gallery page all the thumbs would be recreated. It's like a coldstart when you open the gallery for the first time. If you are ok with that, you just have to make sure you replace all the "ki_setup.php"-includes with your browser-aware-version in all the script php-files, which are located in the "ki_base"-folder.

OK, I see how that's a problem. I'll have to ponder the benefits of having one gallery in this light. I can always make duplicate galleries with each their own settings. It would just complicate maintenance of the galleries a bit.

Thanks!
