When someone adds pictures to album...it will show album post with left and right arrows to silde...but it shows only 4 pictures... you have to click on album title to see all photos...

Is there a way to change number to show more than 4 photos on slider? I would like to be able to slide thru all photos...

Thanks in advance.

    • Did you look in the studio Album module? I think it's the showcase settings

      yoursite/studio/module.php?name=bx_albums "Number of items in showcase view"

      • Thanks for replying.

        Just checked...It shows 32 in my case, didnt change that.

        There is a line "Number of items in album card" that shows 10 but no use...

        • Now there is some weird thing going on...

          While looking for solution I found that under Timeline (card section) setting if you choose "Show attachment as" showcase instead of Gallery It will show similar to what Facebook has...1 big picture 2 small ones underneath big one and 1 will have +7 written on it...and when you click on +7 image, it will open a page (Item feed page) showing slider with 4 pictures in it???? you actually need to click on Title to display a page with all 10 pictures...

          So, clicking on +7 image (or any of those shown on post), it will direct you to Feed Item page instead to View-Album page... is there a way to change that redirect? There is no point to going to see 4 images slider then again clicking on title to see all images....and what does "enable brief cards" do?

          Thanks in advance.

          • Go to the page module and edit the layout, you will have more options from the album module to insert/add blocks, you will have to experiment. As far as redirects, I can't help.

            yousite/studio/builder_page.php?type=bx_albums&page=bx_albums_home

            • I just found out that if I click on my profile then on Albums link, it will show all albums posted, each album with slider will show all uploaded pictures in album. Not only 4.

              I found out that first 4 pictures in album are viewed. Looks like unfamiliar members use slider, see 4 pictures, click on them, see Feed Item (feed item slider shows only 4 too)... they dont even notice that there are more pictures in album hence first 4 pictures show views....

              Since members album page uses slider with all pictures, and timeline album post shows 4 just like Item Feed popup, it looks like there should be some settings to allow all pictures to be slide, right?

              • Have you experimented in the "Navigation module"?

                yoursite/studio/builder_menu.php?page=items&module=bx_albums&set=bx_albums_view_actions_media_unit

                Redirects could be done here I think, as again experimentation is the best way to learn.

                ALSO, make backups before making major changes.

                • Thanks, but I couldnt find anything.
