Did you also enable the plugin? I forgot that myself
And just to check: are the files inside your themes folder?
I don't know if the link works from within the album.php. Probably it does, but I used the link only in my image.php file.

I just finished adding the slideshow functionality to my own pages, and I must say (imho) it looks very nice: link to image page

@chitgok: I don't know simple script, there might be something missing. I would like to suggest a manual install..

@Jackdaw: The slideshow link is setup to work on both album.php and image.php

@jackdaw, it should look like i saw the png file myself and the player ui looks good.
well, i dont see any link of view slideshow in my image.php, only in album.php.

and yes, i did enable the plugin but i did disable the flowplayer. and well, it doesnt work

in image.php did you manually add the view slideshow link code? because it doesnt appear in my image.php, only in album.php

@acrylian,: simple script just lets you fill up some details and it will install everything into your host. probably the host provider made this for their customers. hmmm would like a manual install but somehow.. ick.. ive done too much in my photo gallery, im looking at it to make it work without doing that tsk

if you want to check my photo gallery let me know, ill give you the url. you may be interested in checking the code generated

by the way, i noticed my php file doesnt have the function printslideshow(true). only the printslideshowlink(text) was there, so i guess naturally since the form action is url/page/slideshow, it returns back to the same page without showing the images as a slideshow. should i add something else here? pls advise. thanks

This is the code in my image.php file, which I copied from the default theme:

``

That's all. Also the lines

`

chitgoks: If you use any of the included standard theme, they all should have the slideshow link on album.php (only if there are images of course) and image.php, if the slideshow is enabled.

then, when you click on slideshow you go to this url .. http://url/page/slideshow

Yes, I see it, but I have currently no idea, why since I can't reproduce it. Could you please try the nightly?

hmm ok.. if i create a new one from nightly, would transferring all the photos to the album folder not give any problems in the database? just wondrin in advance. thanks

i installed a fresh copy and it worked. though i noticed the different of their action URLs.

the one that worked was /photo/index.php?p=slideshow&album=test

where in the zenphoto was installed in http://domain.com/photo

while the existing one that didnt work's action url was /trips/page/slideshow

where trips is the album name. could it be because my http://gallery.chitgoks.com is pointing to http://chitgoks.com/gallery and i created a subdomain to have it pointed to there? that the mod_rewrite messed things up?

@acrylian: i was right. the slideshow didnt work when i had mod_rewrite enabled.

anyone here managed to make it work with mod_rewrite enabled? i dont like urls to be in querystrings, but it doesnt make the slideshow work

Good, at least it works. Maybe you could try to set the paths within the zp-core/zp-config.php file manually (at the bottom uncomment the both lines define(....)).

I believe subdomains can cause a little trouble, I can't remember it right, probably sbillard will know.

Subdomains are no problem. Also it works with mod_rewrite. Perhaps as acrylian mentions you need to fix the path defines.

You operating system probably has certain files "hidden". You need to make system files visible so you can see the .htaccess file that is part of the zenphoto distribution. That is the file you need to upload. Once you do, be sure to run setup.php again.
