Hi Jeroen – you found a bug! It’ll require code changes in a few different places to fix it, so I don’t have a quick fix for you. I’ll get it fixed in the next release. Thanks for letting me know.

Hi Mike,

When I am using the salbumphotos tag in post to show all the photos for a specific album I also have the ‘Go Back’ link, which in this case is not necessary.

Is there a way to remove the link in this case.

Thanks in advance and also for this great plugin.

Jeroen

Hi Georg – Thanks very much for creating a localization file. I will add localization support for the areas you mentioned. I’ll plan to add your localization file in next version of Shashin. I will send you a beta copy first so you can update your localization before I release it.

Yes, the reference to cow tipping is a play on words, as “tip” has two different meanings in English. You can read all about it here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cow-tipping I imagine the meaning will be lost in translation

The Danish language files are available from this page: Brug Picasa-billeder på din blog. Mike, you are welcome to include them in the zip. I will keep the localization updated.

PS: Is there some sort of wordplay involved in the PayPal-header about tips and cows?

Hi Mike,

Very nice plugin!

I have localized it for the Danes. Or almost. Most of the widget labels are not localizable. Also, most of the pull-down menus in the other parts of the plugin is not localized. This doesn’t matter when it is numbers (not to a Dane, anyway), but it would be nice if the other menu options were localizable. Especially the Sort Order menu option would be a very good candicate for localization.

At the Shashin Options page, the explanatory texts twice says “Double the … padding value in shashin.css. I am uncertain as to how to interpret “double”. What value is to be doubled? Does that also apply if the user has changed the initial value?

Please, let me know if I should make my Danish language files available right now or wait for an update with more strings localized.

I’ve been playing with this plugin on a test site and love it. I had the same issue that Steve ran into I believe and the margin: 0; solution fixed it.

for anyone designers trying to experiment, I’d recommend taking a good look at the shashin.css file right from go.

Hi Steve – your site’s theme is affecting the Shashin images. It has a css class called “entry” that is adding a margin to the images and throwing off the display. The easiest solution is to edit shashin.css and add the following to “.shashin_thumb img”

margin: 0;

Then save shashin.css to your theme folder. Shashin will find it there, and then you won’t lose this customization next time there’s a shashin upgrade.

i was hoping you could tell me why my gallery looks like this?

http://blackdog61.com/?page_id=3

All the images are cut off and the white background is not centered behind the images. Its just all funny looking.

But i do like the plugin, could you help me fix these bugs?

Hi Rob – I’m not sure what happened with adding your albums. A trailing slash shouldn’t make any difference. If you have any further trouble like that, let me know.

For the tags, please check out the documentation. You’ll get the hang of it when you see some examples – an example of the salbumthumbs syntax is here:
