Hello,

I am very new to CouchCMS and I am using the default gallery.php to learn. I found the post announcing the Jcropthumb add on and decided to give it a try.

I discovered with verseion 2.0 that this addon is included but things are a little different than the instructions. For one the instructions said to add a line to the kfunctions.php file. But in the add on folder there is a kfunctions.examples.php file. Do I have to rename it to kfunctions.php?

I went ahead and did that and uncommented the line.

I replaced the default thumbnail editable region in the gallery.php

<cms:editable
name='gg_thumb'
type='jcropthumb'
assoc_field='image_1'
desc='will be created automatically'
show_preview='1'
/>

But when I open the admin and then open one of the photos I don't see any of the described functionality. All I see is the regular thumb edit functionality.


Your help would be much appreciated.

Hi,

You were correct in renaming the 'kfunctions.examples.php' to 'kfunctions.php'.
The other steps are fine too.

I think the one last step that you are missing is visiting the modified gallery template on the front-end as super-admin using your browser.
This will persist the change and switch to the new thumbnail region.

Please try doing that.

Hope it helps.
