Hi Joe -
I’ve got this one working now, and almost ready to go live. Just one issue, though - would it be possible to get it to feed the Image Title into the PayPal cart, instead of the filename?
I feel this would be more customer-friendly, and don’t really want to have to amend the filenames to make them more user-friendly, as it will cause me confusion down the line!
Hello,
I put the folder inside /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Lightroom/Web Galleries
and it is appearing in the Galleries list, but, with no preview.
I set all my preferences and export the gallery.
I go into the folder and I do not see any galleryData.xml file generated. Then I copy the xml file from the gallery folder and I see it is trying to get the images, of course the file does not have any info..
Anyways, What do you think it is causing this matter?
Please help me, I want to use your script.
Thx,
Gvilla.
hi. is there any way that this gallery can display all images in a grid of thumbnails?
i really like it apart from that and would love to use it!
Thanks,

Awesome Job. Once a little more refined, definitely will get a paypal donation from me!
I would like to see a way to specify the item id in the paypal cart. Right now it seems to grab the filename without extension and thats ugly. I wish it was selectable, like “Title” and “Caption”, that way I could embed the paypal item id in my IPTC data.
thanks. cheers
I have downloaded and installed this template however I don’t see any checkboxes for PayPal. I have included pricing information in the IPTC metadata field. What am I doing wrong?
You know what would be quite cool, and to have the vertical images aligned not from the top edge, but centered like your non-paypal, version 2, but without the info bar popping out from the bottom:

Thanks for these by the way. They are awesome work. Take care.
Hi again,
After using this template so far, I’ve discovered that there might be a little error appearing. When the set the slideshow to fast (2 secs is what I had set for 50 pictures), there are these white bars (squarish, as it’s obscured by the photo, and the black border that I selected [black borders that fade into the black background, as this looks like there is no border at all]) betweens each photo. It doesn’t begin immediately, but it appears about 10-15 pictures later. Weird. Oh, it shows up not only in the Preview, but the Exported files too.
Hi,
From testing, I discovered that it’s from
1)turning on the “Include PayPal features?” from the Color Palette section along with
2) turning on “Options and Price” from the Image Info section.
I don’t think this has any bearing on the error/refresh, but per instructions (no pun intended), I put:
“4×6 print-.xx-.xx,5×7 print-x.xx-x,8×10 print-x.xx-x” in Library>IPTC (dropdown)>Status>Instructions.
It usually occurs about 20 images in (both slideshow, or clicking through):

Thomas,
You can not use a background image with this template. That features has been disabled because it was causing some problems.
“You know what would be quite cool, and to have the vertical images aligned not from the top edge, but centered”
I agree with this as well. I really love this plug-in and have it running now on my site. The other thing I noticed is that the slideshow starts off the center. If I resize the page, the slideshow jumps to where I think it was supposed to be. I also noticed his phenomenon in your sample for LRG FSS Select v1.1.
I love this template…Love Lightroom, but how in the heck do you install this template.Oh someone please help me.
