I18N Gallery

[laptopacademy]

hi

thx for an awesome plugin!

currently, we can view a gallery by clicking "View" in the gallery editor. That loads a "preview" page.

Code:

http://mydomain.org/?name=mygalleryname&preview-gallery

That proves you're already providing a url to view the gallery-- without the need to create a page for the gallery. 

currently, your plugin requires that we create a new page on our site to view each gallery. If we have 40 galleries, that's 40 extra pages filling up our backend-- making it more confusing (and risky) to navigate and edit non-gallery pages. 

Request: Please let us use that preview page to view the galleries on our live site-- instead of making us create a separate page for each gallery. This would greatly simplify the usage of this plugin.

You're almost there! Currently, we can put a gallery thumb on a page using a shortcode:

Code:

(% gallerylink name=mygalleryname url=mygalleryname thumb=0%)

If i try to put the preview url into the gallerylink shortcode-- it almost works!

Code:

(% gallerylink name=mygalleryname url=?name=mygalleryname&preview-gallery thumb=0%)

There's only one problem-- if i use the above shortcode, a slash gets appended to the end of the url, breaking it:

Code:

http://mydomain.org/?name=mygalleryname&preview-gallery/

If only the plugin did not append that slash, then i could view the gallery by putting the preview url into the gallerylink code. Then i would not have to create another page for every gallery.  

So, please stop appending a slash to the url parameter-- that's all that's needed to allow us to use the preview page to view a gallery, and eliminate the need to create a new page for every gallery.

thx!
