Hey All, I wanted to bump this. Is there anyone that could give me a little bit of direction on this per chance? I'm close but not quite getting it to work properly....

Hi Mike,

I'd like to help you out but I'm a little lost in your setup, so could you maybe describe how your Content is structured and post the relevant XSLT?

Hey Chriztian, thanks I appreciate it!

I will do my best to outline what's happening. So I am using the starterkit template for the gallery. The XSLT is unchanged. I have tried a few things to try and get it to work. The current for-each uses $currentPage/* [@isDoc] which returns zero results. I tried a few different things such as $currentPage/ and $currentPage/ancestor-or-self::* [@isDoc] but yet I cannot get it to show the albums.

Here is what's in the gallerylistalbums.xslt file. I tried to look up the xml for the gallery and how it's working but I couldn't really figure out what's happening or get a grasp on it so I am a bit challenged on how to begin debugging the proper xpath.

<xsl:template match="/">
        <xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library:RegisterStyleSheetFile('StarterkitGallery', '/css/StarterkitGallery.css')"/>

        <!-- a little hack to work around the xslt syntax checker when opening/closing UL lists in two separate IF statements -->
        <!-- if it weren't for IE we could use a single UL and simply float the LI's and they'd auto-wrap -->
        <!-- but for IE we either need separate UL rows or else we need to hard-code the LI's height in CSS -->
        <!-- this approach with separate UL rows works in all browsers and row heights -->
      
       
      <ul class="umbGallery umbGalleryAlbums">
     TEXT: <xsl:value-of select="$currentPage" /> :End TEXT
       <xsl:for-each select="$currentPage">
            <!-- display each image in the row, with the count of photos in each gallery -->
            <li>
                <a href="{umbraco.library:NiceUrl(@id)}">
                    <div class="photo">  
                         <img src="{concat(substring-before(./umbGalleryPhoto/umbracoFile,'.'), '_thumb.jpg')}"/>
                    </div>
                    <span class="name">
                        <xsl:value-of select="@nodeName"/>
                    </span>
                </a>
..... etc 

The only thing I changed was that I created a submaster template and put the gallery template under that. I attached a screen cap to help

so it goes:

 startkitmaster

     submaster

            gallery

Thanks again!!!

Hi Mike,

The Masterpage changes should have no effect as to why it's not working. I assume you get the TEXT: and :End TEXT output so we know the macro is run?

Next step is to get a view of the XML because it's most likely an issue with either the nodes not being there (not published), the database using the Legacy Schema or they're in a differnt place than expected.

Two options: 1) Install the XML Dump package, which allows you to do all sorts of queries on the XML

or 2) dump the XML to a <textarea> (ok option for a one-off scrutiny but gets very tedious :-) - you can do that like this:

<textarea cols="60" rows="30"><xsl:copy-of select="$currentPage" /></textarea>

When you've got a clear view of the XML - come back here and we'll crack it.
