The error should be fixed with version 0.1.0. The latest version also incorporates @tpr's fix for the count() on null problem in case someone removes one of the fields from the MediaLibrary template. @Zeka: I'm still looking into script loading in the frontend question. Currently, it's expected behaviour for an uncoditional autoload module, but I'm of course looking to only have the script loaded when necessary. Might be a while though, as it means a lot of testing and delving through PW's frontend editing code until I know what I'm doing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaryMatlow Posted November 12, 2016 Share Posted November 12, 2016 Hi, I'm new to Processwire and being a PHP novice having a hard time mastering its many complexities. I'm trying to use MediaLibrary but am stuck with a frustrating issue. When I add a Library, the library name appears in the main site navigation - this being a page, obviously. And when I make it hidden, the library page disappears from the Media list, and also from the dropdown when I access is via CKEditor. What am I doing wrong? Your help would be appreciated.

BitPoet Posted November 15, 2016 Author Share Posted November 15, 2016 Hi @MaryMatlow, that's actually a question I haven't yet thought about, since the pages I use it in assembles their navigation menus through more detailed selectors. I don't know if you could exclude it from your navigation by adding a "template!=MediaLibrary" somewhere. I'll give it some thought and post back here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaryMatlow Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 BitPoet, thank you for your hint. Adding this to MarkupSimpleNavigation php file worked: 'selector' => 'template!=MediaLibrary', Is there a way to access the MediaLibrary through the "choose file" button through admin. This button appears when you include images field for the page. Thanks once again for your help and a great module. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This button appears when you include images field for the page. Do you mean this button? MediaLibrary is meant to avoid adding files and images to every page anew. Such functionality would copy the selected file/image over to the current page, which would be the opposite. I seem to recall that there's been a module somewhere in the forum that lets you add files or images from other pages, you might try google search with site:processwire.com/talk/ to find it. It should be possible to tweak that module then to only allow MediaLibrary pages if that is your requirement. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speed Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Thank you for sharing. Now the management is lot easier. Every Time my client click on select image they get confused about image management because "Media Library" dropdown is always closed. Is there a configuration to keep Media Library dropdown open all of time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joer80 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 I am having an issue where it works if I put my MediaLibrarys at the top level, but if I make a Regular page Called "Media" and create them under that, it no longer works. The drop down is just empty. ie. /media/people/ (People is the MediaLibrary page) On the admin/media page it does correctly show the path as: Pages / Media Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joer80 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 I was able to fix my issue with this change in the MediaLibrary.module file. Change: public function ___getPageMediaLibraries($pg) { $libraries = array(); foreach($pg->parents->and($pg) as $ppage) { $libraries = array_merge($libraries, $this->getChildLibraries($ppage)); } return $libraries; } To this: public function ___getPageMediaLibraries($pg) { $libraries = wire('pages')->find("template=MediaLibrary"); return $libraries; } Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BitPoet Posted December 29, 2016 Author Share Posted December 29, 2016 While this is a reasonable way of structuring things, it's not a case I'll cover with the module. But that's why I made getPageMediaLibraries hookable. You don't need to modify the original module code, just add a hook in site/ready.php and change the return value there. wire()->addHookAfter("MediaLibrary::getPageMediaLibraries", null, "myCustomGetLibraries"); function myCustomGetLibraries(HookEvent $event) { $event->return = wire('pages')->find("template=MediaLibrary"); } 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anttila Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Is there any way to handle over thousand images? The client wants all their images in one place and search would be nice too. Is there any good way to handle this with this module? Loading time is minutes now.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The client wants all their images in one place and search would be nice too. Is there any good way to handle this with this module? Loading time is minutes now.. Loading of regular pages might benefit a tiny bit from using my module, but managing images would still be prone to the same delays if you put all images into a single library (which is just a page behind the scenes). You might still be able to make use of it if you can separate images into different libraries (e.g. by categorizing them into logos, photos, product images etc.) so numbers stay manageable. Media Library uses PW's native tools (file/image fields, CKEditor pwimage plugin), and I have to admit, I haven't tested those (and my module) with a big number of images - the module is a result of an internal requirement at work, where the number tends to stay well below 100. I'd say give it a quick try in a test system (perhaps in conjunction with the FileFieldTweaks option of @tpr's AdminOnSteroids). If you find you need something more elaborate though, @kongondo's Media Manager pro module might be worth a look. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just read about this one the other day: http://www.responsivefilemanager.com/ I am new to ProcessWire and considering using it for a project. PW seems perfect for this project and so far I am very impressed with it. There will be several image galleries though that have hundreds of images in them. The images don't need a description or any other meta, so being able to mange them in a directory for each gallery seems much easier than trying to manage hundreds of images on a page. I am therefore interested in this approach and have managed to get http://www.responsivefilemanager.com/ working by creating a "galleries" directory at the root level of the site, putting the responsive file manager code there in one directory, and then letting it manage other directories for the galleries. Securing the file manager seems problematic though. It doesn't seem possibly to fully integrate this into the PW User/Login though. I've followed the Bootstrap instructions http://processwire.com/api/include/ and can tie into PW, but $user isn't populated (always "guest"). I can retrieve a user with $wire->users->get, but then isLoggedin() seems to always return true. I imagine this needs to be done in a Module to have more integration with PW and may look into doing that. I wanted to check first though to see if someone else has done this, or if it doesn't sound like a good idea at all, or other suggestions? Thanks!

theo Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Thanks for the Media Library! Great. Just one thing: It took more than an hour to find out what's going on. Having this code: $user->language = $languages->get("en"); foreach ($wire->pages->find("MediaImages.count>0") as $p) { echo '>'.$p->title.'<br>'; } //Returns all pages having MediaImages. OK $user->language = $languages->get("de"); //German user foreach ($wire->pages->find("MediaImages.count>0") as $p) { echo '>'.$p->title.'<br>'; } //Returns nothing. Why? I was really confused. Then I found out, that the Media Libary pages do not automatically set non-default languages active. Normal child pages of "home" do. Not sure if this is a bug, but I had a hard time with this. Thank you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BitPoet Posted February 3, 2018 Author Share Posted February 3, 2018 @theo: Thank you for the feedback, and I'm glad you like my module I'm going to look into that behavior as soon as I have a little time on my hands. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bernhard Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 @BitPoet what do you think about implementing http://rvera.github.io/image-picker/ for the file select field? I think this would be really nice to have in case of images. For other files there could be a default placeholder (like a file icon). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco Ro Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 Hi, I use Media Library module, sometimes does this: I upload an image, save the page, go out and when came back the image is delete. Does it happen to you sometimes? Some one know why? and what I ca do? Thank you At moment I fix this just making a new page, in this way work the images aren't deleted, maybe could be a memory problem. I don't know.

kongondo Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 @MarcoPLY, Moderator Note I would have thought you've been around long enough to know that module related questions need to be posted in their respective support forums, if such do exist ?. I've moved your post to Media Library's support forum. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
