serendipity_plugin_imagesidebar not displaying photos

[soapdroid]

Hello again, I'm having an issue where serendipity_plugin_imagesidebar is not displaying any photos. My title is Photos, and that displays, but nothing below.

I have about ten photos in my media gallery. Here's is the html which is being generated. It appears that it is calling the images, so where are they? Thanks!

Code: Select all

<section class="sidebar_plugin clearfix odd serendipity_plugin_imagesidebar" role="region">
                <h3>Photos</h3>
                <div class="sidebar_content clearfix"><autoscroll_cursor hidden="true"><autoscroll_cursor hidden="true"> </autoscroll_cursor></autoscroll_cursor><autoscroll_cursor hidden="true"><autoscroll_cursor hidden="true"> </autoscroll_cursor></autoscroll_cursor><autoscroll_cursor hidden="true"><autoscroll_cursor hidden="true"> </autoscroll_cursor></autoscroll_cursor><autoscroll_cursor hidden="true"><autoscroll_cursor hidden="true"> </autoscroll_cursor></autoscroll_cursor><autoscroll_cursor hidden="true"><autoscroll_cursor hidden="true"> </autoscroll_cursor></autoscroll_cursor><autoscroll_cursor hidden="true"><autoscroll_cursor hidden="true"> </autoscroll_cursor></autoscroll_cursor><autoscroll_cursor hidden="true"><autoscroll_cursor hidden="true"><div style="padding-top: 5px;"><a href="/serendipity/uploads/PasayPups/IMG_0031.JPG"><img style="border: 0px; width:162px;" src="/serendipity/uploads/PasayPups/IMG_0031.serendipityThumb.JPG" alt=""></a></div><div style="padding-top: 5px;"><a href="/serendipity/uploads/PasayPups/Christmas201114.JPG"><img style="border: 0px; width:162px;" src="/serendipity/uploads/PasayPups/Christmas201114.serendipityThumb.JPG" alt=""></a></div><div style="padding-top: 5px;"><a href="/serendipity/uploads/PasayPups/IMG_0089.JPG"><img style="border: 0px; width:162px;" src="/serendipity/uploads/PasayPups/IMG_0089.serendipityThumb.JPG" alt=""></a></div><autoscroll_cursor hidden="true"><autoscroll_cursor hidden="true"> </autoscroll_cursor></autoscroll_cursor><autoscroll_cursor hidden="true"><autoscroll_cursor hidden="true"> </autoscroll_cursor></autoscroll_cursor><autoscroll_cursor hidden="true"><autoscroll_cursor hidden="true"> </autoscroll_cursor></autoscroll_cursor><autoscroll_cursor hidden="true"><autoscroll_cursor hidden="true"> </autoscroll_cursor></autoscroll_cursor><autoscroll_cursor hidden="true"><autoscroll_cursor hidden="true"> </autoscroll_cursor></autoscroll_cursor><autoscroll_cursor hidden="true"><autoscroll_cursor hidden="true"> </autoscroll_cursor></autoscroll_cursor><autoscroll_cursor hidden="true"><autoscroll_cursor hidden="true"><div class="serendipity_edit_nugget"><a href="/serendipity/serendipity_admin.php?serendipity[adminModule]=plugins&serendipity[plugin_to_conf]=serendipity_plugin_imagesidebar:ec1ecc6ec318d34e0b57343fa5b0f433">Edit</a></div></autoscroll_cursor></autoscroll_cursor></autoscroll_cursor></autoscroll_cursor></div>

Can you give us a live url?

I can not see where all these strange

Code: Select all

<autoscroll_cursor hidden="true"> </autoscroll_cursor>

are being generated. But this possibly is the issue of not showing up any images.

Thank you for the speedy reply as always!

As I said: these hidden markup things, whereever they come from, since you even have them in the serendipity_html_nugget_plugin section, set your images and links to be hidden, as of the templates/2k11/style.css rule

Code: Select all

[hidden] { display: none; }

You can add a

Code: Select all

.sidebar_plugin [hidden] {
    display: inherit;
}

or (more precise)

Code: Select all

.serendipity_plugin_imagesidebar [hidden] {
    display: inherit;
}

rule to overrule that in a templates/2k11/user.css file and enable that via your styles config.

You should find out where and how these

Code: Select all

<autoscroll_cursor hidden="true"> </autoscroll_cursor>

"tags" are inserted. They do not seem to do anything useful, beside getting in conflict with that general style rule, which is something good to have.

Btw, all your images are far too big. Nobody wants to wait minutes for them to load. You should downsize your images before uploading them in size and weight to your media library.

Edit: You seem to write you blog entries with Microsoft Word or similar and paste that into your entry form textareas. That isn't a good idea, since that includes markup and inline styles which are not useful on your blog. Better install the CKEDITOR WYSIWYG-Editor event plugin, to write your blog entries with a better HTML Editor straight ahead. (Maybe this is also the reason for these strange autoscroll tags.)
