version 1.2.22 is up

This is major release. Please read about changes below

Version introduces concept of widgets for picture metadata area along with template anchor targets allowing more streamlined approach in adding and managing metadata tabs for picture pages.

+ Added Photo metadata tab targets in picture.tpl (see template for positioning): {*GD_META_ICO*}, {*GD_META_TXT*}, {*GD_META_CONTENT*}
+ Picture tab "classic" content moved into external templates picture_tab_ico.tpl, picture_tab_txt.tpl, picture_tab_content.tpl
+ Added support for gd_get_metadata content trigger
  You can add custom content for picture meta tabs
    Ex: add_event_handler('gd_get_metadata', 'my_get_tab_metadata');
        function greydragon_get_tab_metadata($metadata) { return $metadata; }
        where each array element represents the tab
          $metadata[] = array(
             "id"         => unique id of the tab
             "icon_class" => class to be used to render icon tabs
             "title"      => tab or menu block title
             "content"    => block content
             "target"     => optional, rendering target - "left", "top", "right", "bottom", not supported, reserved for future use
             "combine"    => combine_css or combine_js reference block
           );
  Prior to rendering $metadata is processed and converted in appropriate construct to be used by the theme
  See ShareThis plugin for more details
+ Tab switch logic in Photo page optimized to allow management of dynamic tabs introduced by 3rd party plugins
+ Improved presentation and content alignment of Tags tab in picture page
+ Added support for auto-close of popup menu on navigation or refresh - Auto Close Popup Menu on Refresh
+ Help improvements
- Fixed issue with missing colorpack setting when theme is first installed and settings are not set yet
- Fixed issue with number of undefined theme params (unused at this time)
- Fixed issue with missing enumerator for $footer_elements in footer.tpl

Hello Serge, meanwhile congratulations for the plugin, really very helpful. I wanted to ask if it was possible to change two settings.
1- you can put the date in automatic thumb of the album? I inserted in the individual photo album, but I can not put it in the album that contains them.
2- you can change the strings of the recent album? Leave only the name of the album will not see all the way?

Thank You

Date of what? last updated image?
Albums have max_date_last only
Image would have date_available (published date), date_creation (date taken)

Please note that theme itself does not manage how thumbs for albums or photos are constructed. It comes from mainpage_categories.tpl and thumbnails.tpl (default theme)
you can replace default logic by copying these two files into local folder and adjusting it to include field(s) above

no quite understand what you mean, sorry
but above applies

If you mean content constructed by GDThumb plugin, then it is different story
yes, I could consider adding extra fields into the thumb, but please clarify what exactly you are looking to add

sorry I had not attached the first image;)

Menu management

I realize this may not be directly relevant to this Theme, but your forum order is a bit werd in that aspect (french?) since if I post a question about "anything" people tell me to go to this thread, regardless of if it has to do with the Theme or not, seemingly because I run this theme. Must be frustrating, eh, Serge?

Anyhow,
Any tricks for making this menu dynamically expandable via script or css, it will grow more.
See screenshot.

Not so much, I let it slide for most part, but did push back on occasion :)

I assume you are talking about horizontal width
my theme limits width to 200px, default sets it to 18em which is just slightly wider when in popup menu
once you menu item width is larger it would simply start wrapping

if you prefer menu to grow, simply set #menubar { width: auto; }

Hi Serge, no I am not referring to horizontal width, i think Jnash is more onto it.

Folders and subitems and stuff.... ajax or jscript.

Maybe it is a feature of Advanced menu... but my concern is how it will work within your theme, and what settings to use.

Okay Serge, one more request by me, and then I'm perfect!!!

As with the stripped them, when viewing a picture, there is an option to click in the middle of the picture to have it open the large (HD) photo in lightbox.

If you could incorporate this option, I'd be dumping some coffee into your mug!

Thanks!
