Community @ The Turning Gate

I finally got my cart to work ONCE.  I went back to ttg-be Cart Setup and tried to correct a shipping pricing error (no matter what I did, it doubled my shipping price).  Now all I get is no products available for purchase, so I am dead in the water.  I have no idea what happened.  It seems that all of the details for setting up Cart are not complete yet, so I have been trying every combination I can think of.  The diagnostics page comes up all green.

I know that I am not providing much info here, but I don't have any idea what to try to provide.  My pricing scheme is named "prints" and as I said, I got the order dialog one time, then nothing.  I've been changing parameters for 2 hours now and cannot get anywhere.  What do I need to provide to get back to square one?

I have installed cart on my server, set it up in ttg-be, checked Pages and my gallery templates to Shopping Cart Integration, inserted the correct path to cart.  Display Add-to-Cart Buttons on Grid is checked in my gallery template.

The preview in Lightroom shows the cart icon on each image in my gallery.  The status bar is also shown.  I am using Highslide for the gallery.  On the web, the cart icon is not displayed.

Any suggestions?

I am trying to set up a WordPress blog using CE4 WordPress Plugin, Pages, Publisher, etc.  I have installed WordPress in the blog folder of my site.  I have created a basic WordPress template in Lightroom.  I have hacked the info from my other templates into this WordPress template and uploaded and activated it.

I was hoping to design a very simple blog from within TTG/Lightroom, but there is no place to enter text or any other customization.

All I want is a simple introductory paragraph on the page followed by the posts.  I couldn't figure out how to do it from any documentation that I could find.  I could create a static front page with a button that took me to a Blog page located at blog/blog.  I can see a post, but there is no box to add additional posts. 

I tried to recreate my TTG menu and replace "Blog" with something like "Comments," but my navigation pane is centered and I was unable to center the WordPress menu that appears in the Navigation block (if I select that option).  That's why I created the button for posts (noted above).

When logged in as the administrator, I see a black menu bar at the top of the browser screen that allows me to add a post.  When I log out of admin, the bar is gone, so that a general visitor has no way to add a post.  If one clicks the # of comments link at the end of the one post that is showing, it brings up the posting box, but that is pretty obtuse and does not allow for a post that is not related to the one that is visible.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

I created an album.  It appeared to be working.  I needed to change the text in the page copy block (edit in publisher).  I changed the text and was unable to save it...  I get the error message posted here.

I inadvertently had clicked on the Album Title and Publisher now thinks I changed the name it appears.  Nothing has changed except the page copy block text.  I tried eliminating the text, but get nowhere.  Is there any way to recover from this error without recreating the entire album?

EDIT:

I just recreated the album with a different name and cannot publish it to the server.  I get the following error. 

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9Xvop … sp=sharing

If I try to edit this new album, I get the cannot rename published album error.

Now I am stumped.  I hope that all of the work that I have put into recreating my CE4 website has not been lost.  I am afraid to touch any other album in Publisher for fear that I will destroy it somehow by opening it.

I am not sure if I need to do this, but...

I am moving from CE3 to CE4.  I have recreated my "Pages," and set up two instances of "Publisher."  (I have replaced the "Services" menu item in Pages with "Clubs" and created a  "clubs" folder at the same level as "galleries" - the same structure I used in CE3.)  The basic navigation appears to work.  My overall data structure is:

...
clubs
   gallery clubs 1
...
galleries
   autoindex gallery 1
   autoindex gallery 2
   etc

My intent was to make "gallery clubs 1" (and subsequent ones) autoindex galleries.  I created a standard gallery instead.  I attempted to use the "hack" and copy the style section of the gallery that I created into a new autoindex template, but my photos were not displayed as they are in the regular gallery that I created initially.

Two questions...

(1) If I have numerous galleries within my "galleries" and "clubs" folders, I assume that I should set each up as am autoindex.  True?

(2) If (1) is true, is there any way to copy the gallery setup from a gallery to an autoindex?

Am I making this too complicated?

What I am trying to do is have a "galleries" folder containing several galleries, and a "clubs" folder containing several galleries.  I would like the "Galleries" page to automatically reflect the galleries that I load into subfolders under "galleries" and the same for the "Clubs" page.

My CE3 website (blog and cart are not functional) is www.photographs-now.com and my temporary domain for the CE4 website is www.rt-66.com.

Any assistance would be appreciated.  It's been a couple of years since I created the CE3 website and am still learning the CE4 dialogs.
