Slow ImageGallery

posts: 16 United States
Anyone have an idea on why the display of the image gallery is so slowwwwwwww......I have thumbs that are only 150 x 150 and are like 3k...and are only displaying 6 per page...and it takes forever......i'm using 1.8.2

Hiya

Are you set to store in the database or a file structure?

imho, speed comes with file structure.

The first view of the gallery page will take extra time whilst it creates the thumbnails but following views should be a lot faster.

I'm storing in the DB...but I just found a fix.....there was a page that said to remove a line from show_image.php and it def made it faster......also...i tried to store in file structure at first...but it didn't work...said unable to upload eventhough the directory that i have it pointing to exists....oh well....at least it's working.....

damian...while I'm at it...do you have any idea why the calendar will not display events in the month display.....for example...I have an event for tomorrow on the calendar...and if i am viewing it in week mode i can see it and it's great...but if i switch to month mode...which i prefer....I do not see a single event???
