LastPlay Posted February 22, 2023 Share Posted February 22, 2023 (edited) Main gallery page doesn't do page reloading when viewing photos, but when viewing photos in category - page refreshing happens when browsing photos... *It's not nice... in 2023y Edited February 22, 2023 by LastPlay The Old Man, Rikki and SeNioR- 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LastPlay Posted February 24, 2023 Author Share Posted February 24, 2023 (edited) *** This is critical! I've been waiting since version 4.7.4 to fix the gallery... and now version 4.7.7 is out. Today I updated my site (4.7.7) and opened the gallery... If you monetize your site with ad banners, then you get a very unpleasant result: The page is always updated(in the category) and the CTR of your banners will fall to 0! * As a result you will have thousands of very short page views and "scrambled" banner impressions... 😔 Edited February 24, 2023 by LastPlay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexWebsites Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 I have to agree. Every image page refreshed. I almost would have rathered a built in slider like the main page block and if you click on the image, then it takes you to the image page. So you get internal links to image pages. I have a banner ad above and its not positioned well for this and doesn't play nice. AlexJ and Richard Arch 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LastPlay Posted March 12, 2023 Author Share Posted March 12, 2023 Question for the developers - will this be done in the future? *Why I ask - I can't use the gallery since version 4.7.4!!! Only on version 4.7.2 everything worked fine! Then I waited............... You ended up releasing a new gallery where the whole page refreshes when you view the pictures... So I'm wondering - will this be implemented or will I uninstall it? I haven't been able to use it for months, even though I paid for it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Management Charles Posted March 12, 2023 Management Share Posted March 12, 2023 I am curious to understand why you say you “can’t use gallery” in this situation. I understand you have a clearly strong preference for the page to not reload (and I agree with you) but, while perhaps not a perfect solution, it does not stop you from browsing images.

But I wrote before - that reloading the page - "kills the CTR of banners". *I'm surprised at your answer. It sounds like "well, it works - what more do you want". I was testing Invision 4.7.2 before buying it and the gallery too... *4.7.2 gallery worked great!!! I bought version 4.7.4 and still don't turn the gallery on for visitors... 4+ months... cool... threw away $100... Why was it necessary to redo it ?!!! ((((((((((((( To remove it from my plan - just delete it in the admin center of the site? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexWebsites Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 It’s the banner ad below header. Makes it really frustrating to look through photos. I removed that banner in the View page with some targeted CSS for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually I said I agreed with you 🙂 I was just wanting to clarify if you literally could not use it or if you just did not like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
