Rod,
Thanks for finding that.
Now hopefully Matt can fix it.
Thanks for you help.

Rod,
The 'galleries' breadcrumb takes me back too home screen when the 'home' breadcrumb was on or off (as it is now).
I forgot to mention this behavior is the same for for different browsers, iPhone and iPad.
Jack
Sorry. I turned the home breadcrumb on. It worked to take me to the Flip, Full-screen home page. Then I turned it off again because I don't want it to show.
The 'galleries' breadcrumb still takes me back to the home page on real site. On the test site it takes me back to the galleries page, like it should.
The D810 is fantastic. I had a D800, also very good, but the 810 had some, for me, critical upgrades. The biggie is the new highly damped shutter. I can now almost get back to hand holding at 1/focal length speed, and get sharp images. The extra higher stop on ISO is also very nice. FPS up 1, which makes the 810 a great all-rounder now.
Jack
Rod,
OK. I checked the set ups on both sites. The Home breadcrumb are both set not to show.
If I enable to show on my 'real' site it shows and works. But the galleries breadcrumb still takes me back to the home page.
Jack
Rod,
I am not sure where that is.
Jack
I have 2 web sites. A test site and my 'real' one. Both made with the identical template setting for Pages, Auto Index, Gallery, Stage. Both use Flip, Full-screen for desktop and mobile for the home page.
On the test site, when navigating down the album sets and albums, the "galleries" breadcrumb takes me back to the galleries page. As I think it should.
On the other site the "galleries" breadcrumb takes me back to the home page. I do not know why, or how to correct it.
Thanks,
Jack
Ben,
That makes sense. When I restored to the 'as was' database as per your instructions, I had the Flip page showing 4 photos. I had edited the 'pages-gallery' album to 2 photos but the site still showed 4. I manually deleted the 'pages-gallery' folder on the site and re-created one in the CE4 Publish Services. That is when it stopped working. I indicated to you that I thought it was a database issue and you confirmed it. I didn't have this problem until the migration issues.
I will await you resolution. Hopefully not too long.
Jack
Rod
All those things are done. Thus did work before I had the migration problem.

Thanks
Jack
I have migrated from CE3 to CE4. There were problems with that migration. Ben had me do some xml editing in an attempt for a fix to the bad album set and albums under it. That did not work and he had me put it back the way it was. I will re-create the bad stuff and re-publish it.
Prior to that fix attempt I had the home page set up for the Flip, Full-screen presentation. It worked as it should. Now all I can get is the default pictures and can't use Stage to modify it. I have a test site and all works well.
I can create a gallery and it shows up in the 'pages-gallery' slug on my web site, and I can edit it, but it won't work on the home page.
Any suggestions on what to look for.
Thanks,
Jack
OK. I hit the return key and it cleared the screen. It appears I am OK now.
It was not obvious to do that however.
Thanks,
Jack
I migrated my CE3 Publish Services to a CE4 Publish Service.
I got the success message in Lightroom. But I cannot clear that message (the albums go off the bottom of the screen) or scroll in that message. The rest of LR is partially frozen. I get some LR menu items, but quoting LR is grayed out.
Any help would be appreciated.
I checked my web site all appears OK with the new CE4 stuff working.
I do not want to force quit LR for concerns of breaking something.
Thanks,
Jack
In CE3 there was a setting to have mobile navigation menu 'natural'. I used it that way in CE3. I usually have only one to three navigation links in my menu. On the iPhone it is always collapsed. Where I have one link, that is not efficient. Is there a way I can set it to non-collapsible. If I have a need for more than about three links, I would use the collapsible method.
Thanks,
Jack
If the album title gets too long, the text begins to fade on the second and third lines. Is there a setting the controls that? Or how else I can prevent that from happening.
Thanks,
Jack
On a page just bellow the navigation banner there are links showing the path taken to get to that page. Not sure what they are called. Can I hide, or disable, them?
Thanks,
Jack
Fantastic. I am glad you figured it out.
It was making the gallery viewing a challenge as it requires a re-navigation down to the next gallery. It that gallery is 3 levels deep it gets frustrating.
Hopefully the update will be soon.
I will continue to do my site re-design templates in CE4. I need the Stage plugin (hopefully this week) to finish my re-design then start the migration. I have a very large set of galleries (over 50K of images) on my existing CE3 site and obviously want the CE4 stuff to be fully checked out before I migrate.
Other than this bug, CE4 rebuilds has gone well, I like everything so far. You did a great job on CE4.
Jack
The link you provided seems to work. At least I couldn't make it not work. What is different?
Your 'Kite Flying Robot' pictures gallery and the house sale link in the 'kevinc' post before mine both behave like mine do.
Jack
Upon further testing, I removed the Hi line and it's associated hyperlink. The "touch" effect lingers and now when the return links line up under the close of the large image it sometimes will activate that link.
Moving the position of the "x" or removing some of the delay of the "touch" might be what is needed.
I of course cannot how figure how to implement either of those.
Other suggestions?
Jack
Rod,
Thanks.
I understand and loaded some thumbnails into the empty folder. It works as you indicated.
Jack
Matt,
Based on your suggestion I made sure I only tapped the "x" as short amount of time as possible to activated it. About 90% of the time I see the return to the gallery page, then very quickly, almost in a flash, the masthead link must be activated. The "touch" must still be active as it then must activate the masthead link. The documentation indicates the H1 link can be a hyperlink. I cannot fine a way to disable the link.
If I can disable the masthead link, I think this should solve my problem. The problem is the same for both iPhone and iPad.
Thanks,
Jack
Rod,
When I looked at the Auto Index documentation to me it indicated that random will automatically select a thumbnail from the galleries in that index.
It that is true mine doesn't seem to work that way. Unless my understanding of the documentation's not correct.
Thanks,
Jack
I created an album set using an Auto Index template. The cover image is set to random. I get the space man icon and no image. If I choose an image it will display. Is there a setting I can't seem to find to turn on the random feature?
Everything else works.
Thanks.
Jack
On an iPhone/iPad using Touch when I am in gallery and looking at an image, the "x" navigation link on the top closes out that window. I am using the Flip, Full-screen feature for my home page. When I click the "x", it does not return to the gallery page, but to the home page. I cannot find a way to change that. I noticed Matt's site does the same thing.
On the desktop with Magnific Popup it does not do that.
Is there a way to correct that behavior and have the "x" return to the gallery page (or the previous page I guess).
Thanks.
Jack
Matt and Rod.
Thanks for the reply.
Good news and I will wait for CE4 Stage next week.
Jack
