Why only a theme for the pro version? Why not both versions. There are many of us that don’t need the pro version but would like to use the theme on the standard version.

Purely due to a lack of time. I’ve had a very hectic work schedule the last several weeks, and was in Seattle assisting on a photo shoot all of last week. Now I’m back home and currently working to suppress some bugs that slipped through testing and have recently been reported, and will hopefully have an update out later in the week for TTG Pages, Auto Index and both Highslide galleries. After that, I plan to update the theme packages with templates for the standard Highslide gallery, and then post additional themes.

I’m getting the 404 error page while trying to download Chai Latte

That was weird. Everything checked out, but I retyped the file URL exactly as it was, and now it works. Give it another go.

OK now, thanks. Will you be releasing additional theme packs?

Yes! And I might even pack in some wizardry.

I suspect I’m missing something obvious, but I can’t seem to get the web templates to work. I’m using 2.0o of Highslide Gallery. I’ve installed the whiteout, chai latte and concrete templates as I have with other templates. However, when I attempt to click on them in my “User Templates” folder I get “The template can not be applied, because the web gallery (id=’net.theturninggate.web.hellcat.standard’) is missing. Plese install that web gallery and then try again.

The templates are attempting to load TTG Highslide Gallery, while you have TTG Highslide Gallery Pro. You need to use the Pro versions of the templates.

Doh! Couldn’t have been more obvious. Thanks for the help Matthew!

Hi
I am switching over to a LR3 workflow and using TTG Highslide gallery Pro 2. All working fine so far adjusting the preferences to suit us etc.

One thing we cant work out is with the PayPal option, if someone likes an image and clicks ‘Add to Cart’ it immediately takes them away from the gallery to the PayPal site. Obviously we would rather they just added the image to the cart and viewed the cart later when ready to checkout…Any ideas?

Again if someone clicks on the company logo at the top of the gallery it opens our website in the same page, rather than a new tab or window, can we change that?

Otherwise the templates and TTG galleries are great!

Cheers, Douglas

If you’d prefer the header not take people away, set the hyperlink value to #. That will keep them on the same page.

As for the PayPal cart, it is necessary to load that page in order for the cart contents to be updated. No way around it.

Hi Matt:

How can I add a background image to the header or menu as the one you in the background for concrete template?

I’ve downloaded and installed both templates for TTG pages and Highslide gallery, and it seem I only can add images in my ID plate, but not for the background.

Am I right?

Thanks for you support.

The background in the Concrete theme is a part of the identity plate.

Hi there,

I’ve download and installed the whiteout theme pack along with ttg_pages_DEMO.lrwebengine. Have a problem in that when I select either TTG Auto Index, TTG Highside Gallery (and Pro) templates I get the following error:

“The template can not be applied, because the web gallery (id=‘net.theturninggate.web.autoindex’) is missing. Please install that web gallery and then try again.”

When I select TTG Pages – Whiteout I don’t receive the error.

Am using a Mac if that’s any help. Your advice is greatly appreciated.

Many thanks

Ian

LR3 seems to have some bugs in regard to applying web templates. :-/

that’s a shame. Was looking forward to purchasing this pack! Hopefully a future LR update can fix?

Just tried them and get the same errors using Lightroom 2..

That’s just weird; or it may be because the templates were created in LR3. You might have some luck porting the template settings into your own templates, according to this tutorial: http://lr.theturninggate.net/2009/10/tutorial-porting-settings-between-web-engines/
