Hello there, hope everything is ok!

Just a quick question, I searched but did not find answers, apologize if already asked:

Can I embedd imagevue pointing to a specific album? I mean, I'd like to embedd my gallery from an HTML page. I managed to do it, but now I'd like to point the embedded gallery to a specific album. Additionalyy I'd like to know if it's possible to pass atributes to this album (no menu needed)

Thanks for your time, have a great day!

Yes, you can pass parameters/attributes to the gallery from within your custom HTML document, including setting a path to a specific folder/gallery. If you are using similar embed method as the default gallery, you would have Flashvars, something like this:

var flashVars = {
	startpath: 'folderName'
};

There are a few different settings you can set like this through flashvars. However, many settings require you to use the parameters syntax, as basically you are overwriting options from the Imagevue settings structure.

var flashVars = {
	startpath: 'folderName',
	[b]parameters: 'menu.mainmenu.enabled=false|settings.startmode=image'[/b]
};

Using parameters like this with | to separate each parameter, works identical to folder parameters which is documented here:

Thank you for your answer!
I did not find "var flashVArs" in my code (taken from embed example file)

I tryed including variabls this way:

 <script type="text/javascript">
			//<![CDATA[
				swfobject.embedSWF("http://www.studioboda.com/reportaje/iv-includes/imagevue2.swf", "imagevue", "100%", "100%", "8.0.0", "http://www.studioboda.com/reportaje/iv-includes/expressInstall.swf", null, {allowScriptAccess: 'always', allowFullScreen: true, bgcolor: '#000000'}, {id: 'imagevue', name: 'imagevue'});
				var flashVars = {
   startpath: 'bw',
   
};
			// ]]>
			</script>

But not working

if I add parameters the iframe shows as if I do not have flash or java....

Could you please help me?

Try this:

<script type="text/javascript">
         //<![CDATA[
var flashVars = {
   startpath: 'bw'
};
            swfobject.embedSWF("http://www.studioboda.com/reportaje/iv-includes/imagevue2.swf", "imagevue", "100%", "100%", "8.0.0", "http://www.studioboda.com/reportaje/iv-includes/expressInstall.swf", flashVars, {allowScriptAccess: 'always', allowFullScreen: true, bgcolor: '#000000'}, {id: 'imagevue', name: 'imagevue'});
         // ]]>
</script>

Hello!

I just tryed the code but get the same behavure. If I put only the startpath nothing happens, if I put parameters, the iframe behaves as if did not find flash player....

I'm doing the embedding form a different site, could be this the problem?

The html is here, if you want to check:
http://www.studioboda.com.ar/index1.html

And the imagevue gallery is here: http://www.studioboda.com/reportaje

Thanks for your help!

So I checked this link, and the code I asked you to add is not there

var flashVars = {
   startpath: 'bw'
};

Furthermore, if you are getting errors, it likely means you have some code error that breaks the javascript.

Thanks for your help.
I just started from embedd_example.html to avoid possible errors in the page.
i have tryed the code and still can't make it work.
I would greatly appreciate if you could check it here:

http://www.studioboda.com.ar/embed_example.html

Same problem, if I add

var flashVars = {
   startpath: 'bw'
};

nothing happens.

If I add the parameters code, the Iframe just does not work and the alternative message shows out.

Have a nice day!

But you are not adding the code that I posted ... In my original post, I posted this:

<script type="text/javascript">
         //<![CDATA[
var flashVars = {
   startpath: 'bw'
};
            swfobject.embedSWF("http://www.studioboda.com/reportaje/iv-includes/imagevue2.swf", "imagevue", "100%", "100%", "8.0.0", "http://www.studioboda.com/reportaje/iv-includes/expressInstall.swf", flashVars, {allowScriptAccess: 'always', allowFullScreen: true, bgcolor: '#000000'}, {id: 'imagevue', name: 'imagevue'});
         // ]]>
</script>

This is yours:

<script type="text/javascript">
			//<![CDATA[
var flashVars = {
   startpath: 'bw'
};
				swfobject.embedSWF("http://www.studioboda.com/reportaje/iv-includes/imagevue2.swf", "imagevue", "100%", "100%", "8.0.0", "http://www.studioboda.com/reportaje/iv-includes/expressInstall.swf", null, {allowScriptAccess: 'always', allowFullScreen: true, bgcolor: '#000000'}, {id: 'imagevue', name: 'imagevue'});
			// ]]>
			</script>

There is not a world of difference, but where you have the value NULL, it should says FLASHVARS like in my example.

I don't know why it does not work with parameters if I can't see it, but likely you left out a comma some where to separate objects and variables, which breaks the javascript.

Hello, thank you mjau-mjau for your support.

I have modified the code and now I'm able to load the iframe with the album I want.
I was able to use parameters in this form:

var flashVars = {
   startpath: 'folderName',
   parameters: 'menu.mainmenu.enabled=false|settings.startmode=image'
};

Without "and"

The problem is that now when I clic on a photo it does not display as it should... it does not display at all!
cheched on safari and firefox.

The problem seems that it does not fid:

http://www.studioboda.com/reportaje/bod ... 4394%2Ejpg

seems as if a slash "/" is missing
The html document is online here: http://www.studioboda.com.ar/embed_example.html

Thanks again for your help.

tinorebel · 13 May 2013, 07:36

I was able to solve it, i just added a slash at the end of the startpath, this way:

var flashVars = {
   startpath: 'bw/',

};

And the parameter is working this way:

var flashVars = {
   startpath: 'bw/',
   parameters: 'menu.mainmenu.enabled=false|settings.startmode=image'

};

Imagevue roks!
