- Support many photos providers (picasa, flickr, ...)
- Stay as simple as possible
This addon can be installed as any other addon. Please follow the official documentation.
Have an idea? Found a bug? Let us know by opening a support ticket.
State of the current master on github by travis-ci:
Note: for those who came from 1.X this addon dont provide UX anymore. This addon is now intended to integrator. Please consider use collective.galleria as a great gallery viewer for Plone.
Note that Galleriffic is not maintained. This is one of the reason why I have removed UX from this package. jQuery gallery appear and disapear every day.
To cleanup you plonesite from 1.X, you can call @@collective.gallery.zclean as administrator or use the profile 'zclean' which remove galleriffic from your javascript registry.

collective.gallery use zope.components to provide as much reusable components as possible.
First we have photo resources. Plone already manage this for you:
- Folder can contains Image
- Topic can be criterized to list only Image content type
- Link can be sources of photos throw picasaweb.google.com and flickr.com services.
Next you have the main component: IGallery. This interface is implemented at two levels:
- As named adapter over IATLink to get photos from picasaweb or flickr or facebook.
- As browserview to control the resource (@@gallery)
Folder and Image content type can be used to build a gallery. Add a folder and then add every images in it. Once its done come up to the folder and choose 'Gallery view' in the display drop down menu and voila.
The folder gallery component query the portal_catalog and adapts brains to IPhoto.
Topic can be used to build a gallery. Add a topic and add criteria on the Type to select only Image. Next choose the 'Gallery view' in the drop down menu and voila.
The topic gallery component use the topic's queryCatalog method to get brains, then they are adapted to IPhoto
Link can be used to build a gallery. Add a link, set URL to one of the following services, validate and choose the 'Gallery view' in the drop down menu and voila.
The link gallery component get all named adapters from Link to IGallery and call the validate method. The first validated adapter is kept as resources.
In Plone, just paste the share link provided by picasaweb inside a Link content type and display your link content with the view 'Gallery view' available in the drop down display menu.
