Help needed using the Embed-skin in Adobe Muse

Admittedly, i am still a diehard Adobe Muse user when it comes to making and updating my site. Even though the latest release is from 2018, it still works perfectly fine.

Embedding the newest jAlbum Embed-skin works fine too. Until i click on an image in my (embedded) album ... It opens the image alright, but without any navigational arrow buttons, info or means to close the image again (the X) and go back to the mainsite.

When I - instead - click the backbutton of my Chrome-browser to go back and reload the whole site again, my site is largely empty and most of the images are gone. I have to physically close the tab my site resides in in Chrome, open a new one and type in the address to my site again. Then all pictures show up normally again and clicking a picture in the Embed-gallery causes the whole issue again.

Obviously this could a bug in either Embed or Muse. Alternatively, some other (Muse) code might be interfering with the Embed-code, but i don't have a clue what that might be. Does anyone have any thoughts, experiences or insights into this problem? Any info is highly appreciated!

Thanks,
Lee

It is supposed to show the navigational and close buttons. I guess the parent page has some CSS that makes those buttons invisible.

As the lightbox is not a new page (it overlays the image via JavaScript), the back button will go back to the previous page you visited. It can happen that Muse does some trickery and inserts something in the history.

Anyway, I can do more than guessing only if I see the actual page.

The site is on his profile page, but it has quite a few issue:
'blocked: The page at https://leodekeijzer.nl/ requested insecure content from http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.js. This content was blocked and must be served over HTTPS.'

There are a couple of fonts missing, 404 errors

Error:
TypeError: window.GLightbox is not a function. (In 'window.GLightbox({
					selector: '[data-gallery="ja-gallery"]',
					touchNavigation: true,
					loop: false,
					descPosition: 'bottom',
					videosWidth: '100vw',
				})', 'window.GLightbox' is undefined)
	(anonymous function) (jalbum-gallery.js:443)


There are 49 html validation errors and a couple of hundred info notes

The script link
<script src="https://leodekeijzer.nl/galleries/Love-death-robots/res/jalbum-gallery.js" defer></script>
Is on line 50, 120

The gallery insert
<jalbum-gallery src="https://leodekeijzer.nl/galleries/Love-death-robots/"></jalbum-gallery>

is at 578, 1447, 2001 and 2094.

The whole of the site appears to be on a single page, which takes a while to load.

Don't know if the above helps or not.

Thanks for your prompt replies and input guys! I will have a look at the problems Rob pointed out, although the the site functioned totally properly before i tried to embed the jAlbum gallery with the Embed skin.

BTW: Cudo's for figuring out what my site was as i realized i hadn't mentioned it! How did you guess?! Anyway, i will get back to you once i know more.

Whenever someone has a problem album but doesn't post a link I look at their profile page (clicked on your name in the post). You have a link to your site and no albums listed, so I just tried the site link and used the web developer tools to see if the embed code was present.

When you get problems with an album it is always worth trying the web developer tools to see if there are errors/missing resources etc.

Rob,

Clever thinking! I've been trying a couple of things based on your inputs en html-remarks, but to no avail (so far). For now i have chosen an alternative way, a compromise if you will, by just linking to the seperate albums from my site and opening them on a different page/tab. So, without the embedding functionality, which would have been even nicer but not entirely functional. I will check back later to see if - by some chance - a newer version of the Embed-skin will work with Adobe Muse.

Thanks again, both you and Laza!
Lee

PS: my site is - indeed - a single page. Depending on the viewport it scales differently, so it can be used/viewed on both smartphone, tablet ánd PC monitor. That way there is a bit of loading overhead involved, but on phones and tablets i didn't want the user to navigate/open multiple pages, as it is not very practical nor elegant. Unfortunately, my compromise now forces users to do exactly that, but for the time being i'm ok with it.
