    I just love the look of the Mosaic look from Jetpack. (although would consider NextGen if I need to) Is it a simple enough process to set something up using Mosaic? I have no problem outputting a folder of web friendly jpegs and uploading via FTP but you lose me after that with  your IMG tags stuff. I am a bit green when it comes to this stuff :-)

    I meant my posts that are scrolled thru in grid view like this:

    http://www.gregorybeylerian.com/all-works/

    I was able to remove all the extra info with this code:

    // remove post meta post info – basicWP.com

    remove_action(‘genesis_after_post_content’, ‘genesis_post_meta’);

    remove_action(‘genesis_before_post_content’, ‘genesis_post_info’);

    add_action(‘template_redirect’, ‘child_conditional_actions’);
    function child_conditional_actions() {
    if( is_single() ) {
    add_action(‘genesis_after_post_content’, ‘genesis_post_meta’);
    add_action(‘genesis_after_post_content’, ‘genesis_post_info’);
    }}

    OK, this newbie figured it out, instead of cutting and pasting, I went thru and swapped out the numbers inside the CSS. All negative side effects removed and working as desired.

     

    A walk in the park for you seasoned pros, but for a guy who never saw code before a few weeks ago, I feel like a just climbed Mount Everest :-)

    If you can imagine, I have installed S2 membership and uninstalled it twice so far, thinking thats my solution, then becoming over whelmed how to get this function plus its just so much plugin and complexity for such a simple task.

    Seems like it might just be my one plugin solution if I can not find anything else.

    Yea, the peters login is one of the ones that is suggested to be used with an other plugin called members. If I can not find a single plugin, I may have to go this path. Or as you say, get some one to code it for me.

     

    FYi – here is the link if you are interested in one of the few options I have found to create a client portal:

    So after watching a 15 minute  S2 tutorial video a few times, I have decided it is a too complicated solution with a plugin not originaly intended to do such a task (as stated by the lead developer).

    So I am back in search mode.

    It is hard to believe that no one has created a simple plugin to do this:

    Click on a page, input your own username and password and be redirected to a new URL automatically which in my case would be a web gallery of images that I manually uploaded via ftp.

    I see!

    OK, I am watching a video tutorial now that demonstrates how S2 Member can be used in the manner I describe. I will return with updates shortly.

    Thanks,

    If I embed the images  into my WordPress site and estimate that each client has about 100 megs of images that I need to upload, will this not slow down or cause others issues for my site, considering I upload 100 megs a week?

    Thanks for the links, I was aware of some of these but I am not sure that they do what I need or if they do, it seems more complicated than I hoped.

    I simply want a page called “Client Login” that every client goes to, they input their specific user name and password and gets redirected to an other URL which is a separate non WordPress related gallery of images that I have uploaded manually using FTP.

     

    Am I missing something or is this not as typical a need as I thought because I can not seem to find a plugin that does this simply?

     

    Thanks,

    Hmm, I think I may have mis diagnosed a problem then?

    There are a few of my posts that have a problem with the way the image is imbed. I have fancybox installed and normally when you click on an image in a post, it grows larger. In a few of my posts it instead goes to a thumbnail on an other page, then when you click it again, the images goes bigger.

    Here is an example of one post that does this (keep in mind that my site is not live yet, maybe this is a reason?) :http://www.gregorybeylerian.com/newbegining/photography/jessica-chastain/

    I thought this problem existed because it happened to a few other posts that I removed from one category , it was in two.

    Strangely, I just created a test post and put it in two categories, viewed it, then removed one category and viewed again and there were no problems with the links to the images, they opened fine.

    SO, I do not know why a small number of my posts have weird image link paths which I want to fix before I go live AND I want to make sure that I implement the right practice with WordPress. If it is not an image link or SEO problem then it would be easiest for me to add projects or remove then from a featured Post category.

    And I will do my homework with custom post types as well :-)

    Thanks,

    G.

    thanks!

    I guess the best approach is to never remove…

    Hi,

    I had thought about the custom post type but my theme does not have a custom template , so I would have to make one (newbie) and I think I would then need to also post the same content in my regular post format as I am using my blog site like a database of all my creative works.

    Was hoping I could find a simpler way of posting once but being able to call only certain posts and be able to remove and add without issue.

    Thanks,

    Thanks, yes I am aware of that plugin but what if I am just working with images that are imbed directly in the post, not a gallery?

    Would the built in WordPress capability allow me to have one hundred different passwords, one for each client and let me know when a linked page is being viewed?

     

    Thanks!
