Gallery linked to collection is not filled completely

Hi All,

does anyone else have the problem that a gallery filled dynamically with images from a collection is not filled completely with all images that should be shown? Also the layout of the galery is always a bit messed and not all images are resized propperly. The page shows a lot of space below the gallery so it seems the loyaouting space is reserved for all images but they do not load all completely.

I will try to link a video.

Thanks
Thomas

Do you use the WIX Pro Gallery? What settings did you make in the dataset for paging and in the gallery on nr of rows and more? If you are not using WIX Pro Gallery try it.

Hi Andreas, Thanks for your reply.
Yes, using the WIX Pro Gallery. Couldnā€™t locate where to set a paging value for the dataset? Where can I find this? The Pro gallery is set to display all content, the ā€˜load moreā€™ button is disabled.

Is the site live so I can check the javascript console for errors?

Hi Andreas :slight_smile: I temporarly published the website right nowā€¦ I would be really glad you could have a look into it. Much appreciated!

Ok I see no errors that is connected to your gallery. What kind of layout are you using in your gallery?

Jepā€¦ no JavaScript-Errorsā€¦ I played arround with the settings for the Pro Gallery but neother ā€œCollageā€ or ā€œMosaikā€ worked as it should. Tried to change all the layout specific settingsā€¦ no success. Currently it is set to the layout like attaced. With these settings most of the pictures in the collection are displayed, but still not all. Couldnā€™t find any logic behind the skipped images. All images have the similar dimensions and displayed and skipped ones are sharing the same sizes. So donā€™t know whats wrong there.

Is there anyone else who has similar problems?

Do they show if you enable ā€œMehr lader button anzeigenā€ ? No matter if I can help you or not I must say that your photos are AMAZING!!!

Hi Andreas, thanks for your compliments.

It doesnā€™t change anything with the load more button enabled or not. Iā€™ve also tried all other layout optionsā€¦ are always the same images that are skipped: #7, #12, #13, #15, #18, #19, #20, #24, #27, #28ā€¦ Canā€™t get an idea what could cause it. Iā€™ve attached a screenshot of the collectionā€¦

Could you check the filenames on thoose images so they do not include blank space, weird characters like & / + and just A-Z and 0-9 and might - or _ but nothing else. Could you also try the page in different browsers and maybe also in icognito mode?

Will give it a try to rename all filesā€¦ they indeed include " " and ā€œ+ā€ā€¦ I just added a new entry with one of these missing pictures to the collection and it showed now both of them, but skipping different onesā€¦

Hi Andreas, changed the file names of the images, deleted the two additional collumns with pictures from the collection and tried in Safari, Firefox & Chrome, all in Editor-Mode and Liveā€¦ nothing changed :frowning:

Thanks for all your help so far!

Hope that someone of the Wix staff will look into it soon.

In case anyone of the wix staff is reading hereā€¦ my problem with the not completely filled dyanmic gallery is only occuring with the Wix Pro Gallery. All the other ā€˜oldā€™ galleries are working 100% and very fastā€¦ much faster than the filling of the Pro Galleryā€¦ but maybe this effect is caused by faulty behaviour of the Pro Gallery fillingā€¦

Since a couple of hours I now get a lot of exceptions/errors while loading the Dynamic page with the Pro Gallery. Hopefully your fix is in work?

Oh my god and I thought that was the better one :frowning:

Unfortunately still the same scrap behavior of the Pro Gallery this morningā€¦ really hoped that something changed over night :frowning:

Hi tom, thanks for the feedback. I will pass it on to the Pro Gallery team.

Hi Tom,
Thanks for the feedback.
The issue was fixed and all the items in your gallery are displayed properly now.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hi Guy,

thanks for fixing the problem! The Pro Gallery is now displayed properly.

But I encountered another Problem: The Gallery loads and displays properly with the first load and selection of category. But by changing the category the gallery shows nothing. When the whole page reloads the Gallery is displayed properly again until the next change of the category.

May I please ask you to have a look into this again?

The linked video shows the effect.

How do you change category? By using WIX Code?
