New:
- Support for "internally linked" files, introduced in jAlbum 38

Fixed:

New:
- Optionally, visitors can add an item only once to the Feedback cart. When they add it the second time, the cart will focus on the item already in the cart.

Fixed:
- Error on Contact.htt: missing "foursquare_id" variable

Version 6.2.1

Fixed:
- 1203 ReferenceError: "autoRotate360" is not defined in init.js

Version 6.2

New:
- Threads and BlueSky sharing on the Contact page
- Auto rotate and Rotation speed settings for 360° panoramas
- Page links are represented with distinct icons instead of the generic "page" graphic icon, the same on the Contents and Sitemap pages.

Fixed:
- In Firefox v140 and up, the theme image remains from the previous folder, because of Firefox's buggy cache handling
- The lightbox images may be resized to fit the screen, even when 'Fit to screen' is turned off.

Changed:

New:
- Page links are represented with distinct line icons instead of the generic "page" graphic icon, same on the Contents and Sitemap pages.
- Contact page map falls back to OpenStreetMap in case there's no Google API key provided
- The Shopping Cart and Map buttons now only appear on overlays when there are related items found

Improved:
- Swipe handling
- Button color calculations

Changed:

- Smoother (slower) movement after releasing the image after swiping
- The feedback and the PayPal buttons tooltip moved below to avoid covering the selection buttons
- Tooltips won't show up if moving the mouse across the hotspot swiftly

- Single-letter keywords do not appear in the Tag cloud box
- High-resolution hero background images didn't work
- Can't update the skin when an album is open

Updated:
- French and Dutch translations

New:
- Pinch zoom support. The controls and other panels in the lightbox stay in place while pinch zooming, in contrast to the browser's zoom, which zooms the whole page.
- You can mark shop options as "digital delivery" for items to which you don't want handling applied. Just add " D" at the end of the line! For example, "download=10.0 D". This works with the global and individual options in the Image data panel. It is useful when you have mixed physical and digital products and want to avoid adding handling to digital-only carts.
- Non-linear handling fee, depending on the number of items in the cart. It is useful if the products you sell are similar and can apply the same shipping fee to any item. Format: PerCart + PerItem + AfterFirst
- High-resolution hero background image for HiDpi devices. This option is now the default because the number of HiDpi devices keeps increasing.
- You can use the "&" character in search in place of "and". (E.g., 'cat & dog' - mind the spaces around!)
- In the tag cloud, you can avoid collecting tags from Folders, Pages, or Web Locations. Now, by default, the skin collects tags only from folders. Previously, it collected tags from every custom page, too.
- Threads and Bluesky sharing (experimental)
- Open Street Map is used when no Google Maps API key is provided

Changed:
- Google Maps is loaded asynchronously to match their requirements. It was already asynchronous, but Google did not understand the code.
- A few libraries were overwritten to unify image transforms. In the process, support for old Internet Explorers was removed. This was necessary to support pinch handling, which should result in smoother image handling in the lightbox.
- The skin now warns users when they try to open an album from the filesystem because doing so corrupts many of its functions. Always use jAlbum's Preview (F12) to test local albums!
- 1 letter tags are now also displayed in the Tag cloud box
- Search box tooltip stays longer (4s) than other tooltips
- Redesigned Cookie Policy / GDPR compliance popup

Fixed:
- Unproportionate folder thumbnails on mobile/landscape mode
- Can't jump to the next folder's first image when that's no JPEG or movie
- GDPR Cookie Policy URL doesn't work
- Asking only GDPR compliance without a Cookie policy warning does not trigger the popup

New:
- Possibility to control the slideshow interval and transition speed for images independently, see Edit mode -> Image data panel
- Double-clicking or tapping the image zooms into the clicked / tapped area
- The mouse wheel in the lightbox can be used for Navigation, Zoom, or left for the browser to handle it

Fixed:
- HTML and CSS validation errors
- PDF files do not appear on IOS devices
- "Show pages in the story" = "Link only" might result in unreadable buttons

New:
- 3 new autopano speeds: "very slow", "moderate" and "quick"

Fixed:
- HTML and CSS validation errors
- Index page images aren't justified after returning from the lightbox when full-screen was used previously
- Inconsistent state of the full-screen toggle button after leaving the lightbox or exiting the full-screen mode with the ESC key
- When you select a language in the skin's user interface different from the main jAlbum language (in the Preferences) the dates might still show the original month and weekday names
- Photo data panel might be too narrow on portrait mode mobile devices

New:
- The slide pages (made to help share individual images to Facebook) can avoid automatic redirection, to help search bots (SEO) find individual images

Fixed:
- Hero title color might be hard to read when no image is used
- External videos are not loaded and handled as ordinary images
- Caption boxes incorrectly initialized with "Empty" value, even though the skin is using the real thumbnail caption (visible when selecting "[Custom]")

Changed:
- The thumbnail caption's position made "below" on all styles (instead of "over") to make captions readable on mobile devices
- Using "X" instead of "Twitter"
- Better calculation for legible text colors
- jQuery updated to 3.7.1

New:
- Hero image slider timing control

Modified:
- Slightly higher resolution images for the "Justified" layout for sharper thumbnails (It can cause the images to be regenerated, but it's worth the effort)
- Smoother mobile swiping experience
- "Settings / General / Address" is used to determine the upload path (takes precedence over the "Tiger / Advanced / Upload path")
- Caption templates show only the "preset" until they get customized

Fixed:
- Right-click "Treat image as" submenu might not work
- The wide video's opener button is misplaced
- Thumbnails fail to load after a wide video
- Panorama images fit horizontally, not vertically only
- 360VR initial view parameters passed as degrees instead of radians to the viewer, resulting in wrong Camera Tilt and Pan.

Fixed:
- Javascript error when using "Random images" in the Hero slider
- The lightbox does not work when the search has found only one image

Version 5.1.1

Fixed:
- The slideshow button does not start the slideshow if no timing control is allowed

Version 5.1

New:
- Added 11px, 12px, and 20px font sizes to Base font size box. It could be useful for languages using kanjis for example.
- You can control if PDF, DOC, and XLS files will be displayed through the Google Document Viewer. Please ensure your site allows external access to these files! See the CORS settings (in the .htaccess file)!
- Slideshow interval can be changed by the visitor (optionally)

Changed:
- Clicking a label in the tag cloud or starting a search closes the panel
- The Base font size setting did not change text sizes in several places
- Variables used in Tag cloud and Search are treated as arrays (multi-value variables) when using ';' semicolon(s), e.g. "foo;boo" will add both "foo" and "boo" to the Tag cloud. This doesn't apply to the Comment and Title fields.

- Favicon design

Fixed:
- Error when web locations are treated as folders, and the skin tries to gather small (mosaic) thumbnails from the folder

- Right-click -> Story -> "Treat image as" option on the Explore page. This way you can easily control how the thumbnails are laid out on multiple images at once.
- Latin Extended character set can be added to Google Fonts when using English as an album language. Useful when you want to support all European languages.
- You can use tooltips (and even images) in the Shopping cart or the Feedback "Instructions" boxes, e.g. <span title="<img src='${resPath}/foo.png'>" data-tooltip>Hover me!</span>

Fixed:

Fixed:

Fixed:
