When I use the plugin GGKP to publish the tour on my website, the plugin display/shows in the page (website) the information that is in the first slide/panorama of the tour. What can i do to disable this display of information?

I do not want the information of the tour show below the tour in the website. I just want to show the tour.

Any suggestions?

Hi,
I am going to assume you're referring to Wordpress, but if not the same setting will be in the Joomla plugin as well.
Go to the Plugins setting and deselect Display User Data.

Thanks for replying...

I was banging my head trying to fix that in Pano2VR instead of the settings of GGPKG in Wordpress...

Now that I have overcome that issue, I was trying to publish the tour in Wordpress using a customise GGPKG shortcode but I was not successful in doing so.

The shortcode I tried was:

ggpkg url='http://www.the360guide.com/wp-content/u ... index.html' display_userdata='false'

Is that shortcode wrong?..am I missing something?

Hi,
If you have uploaded a package to Wordpress then yes your code is wrong.
Please see this page: https://ggnome.com/doc/pano2vr/6/cms-wordpress/
The short code should contain the packages ID.

Thanks again for replying..

Yes I noticed that if you are using the plugin you need to include the packaed ID, however I was hoping that by using a custom code you would be able to store the package in a different folder and then call this package by using the custom code?.. is that feasible..

Let me explain in a different way..

When I use the GGKPG plugin, you have to upload the tour to the media folders in wordpress (usually wordpress archive the media files by date/year).

I would like to archive the tour in a different folder, is that possible?

That is why I was trying to use that custom code

Yes, you can do this. Just have a look at https://ggnome.com/doc/pano2vr/6/cms-plugins/ and use the url parameter. The URL must point to an extracted package or a normal Pano2VR output.

Code: Select all

 [ggpkg url="http://ggno.me/panoramas/pano123"]
If the URL points to a different domain, you need to make sure that the CORS headers are set correctly.
If you want to use a regular output folder, you need to check "Create files for external embedding" to make sure the folder contains the preview image and the gginfo.json file.

I followed your instructions and uploaded all the information into a folder, as shown in the photo below:

I include the following code in the wordpress page:

Code: Select all

[ggpkg url='http://www.the360guide.com/wp-content/uploads/tours/pano/pano]
However I am not able to see the tour...

Am I missing something?

Hi,
There is a single quotation missing between the word "pano" and the square bracket.

However the panorama is unreachable, by rights if you enter:
http://www.the360guide.com/wp-content/u ... /pano/pano

You should see the pano, but it returns:
https://www.the360guide.com/wp-content/ ... /pano/pano
Which shows a holding page.

Check to see if the URL you're using works outside of the embed code first.

I fixed the url and added the single quotation mark

Code: Select all

[ggpkg url='http://www.the360guide.com/wp-content/uploads/tours/pano/index.html']
However now I am getting the following message:

GGPKG incomplete, XML-File is missing!

As I showed in the previous picture, the folder pano contains an XML file: pano.xml

Image

Is there another file that I did not include?

I tested the URL and the tour works:
http://www.the360guide.com/wp-content/u ... index.html


So why it does not work with the shortcode?

Hummm,
Try this test:

Code: Select all

[ggpkg url='http://hopkimedia.co.uk/wp/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/floorplan']
Do you see a test pano?

Also you only resolve the URL to a folder, so don't include the index.html file in the path.

If the above is working for you can you send your project to me at the e-mail below, if it's going to be large then use Wetransfer or Firefox Send.

I amended the URL:

Code: Select all

[ggpkg url='http://www.the360guide.com/wp-content/uploads/tours/pano']
Just included the folder, but still i am getting the same message:
GGPKG incomplete, XML-File is missing!

the example that you sent:

Code: Select all

[ggpkg url='http://hopkimedia.co.uk/wp/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/floorplan']
is loading

To what email address should I send you the project?...I will be using Wetransfer.com


Let me know

As your website uses https, you also need to provide the URL with https so

Code: Select all

[ggpkg url='https://www.the360guide.com/wp-content/uploads/tours/pano']
should do the trick.

I amended the shortcode again,

Code: Select all

[ggpkg url='https://www.the360guide.com/wp-content/uploads/tours/pano']
And it is partially loading, however I only get the progress bar, but the tour never loads completely..

as in the image below:

Image

I also tried the standard shortcode :

Code: Select all

[ggpkg id=46319]
But i get the same result.

Now, I also tried using iFrame:

Code: Select all

[iframe width="256" height="144" src="http://www.the360guide.com/wp-content/uploads/tours/pano/index.html" allowFullScreen ]
Using iFrame, the tour loads perfectly, however the fullscreen function does not work.

I also did the following:
Deleted all the content in the folder, changed the skin of the tour, created a new output and uploaded the new output to the folder, however the tour still is not loading...

Do you have any idea why the tour is not loading when using the GGPKG plugin?, however it does load using iframe

Has it got anything to do that I am currently using a trial version?

After another go I was able to load the tour...

Initially I had the following code:

Code: Select all

[ggpkg url='https://www.the360guide.com/wp-content/uploads/tours/pano']
After I deleted the www and leave it as:

Code: Select all

[ggpkg url='https://the360guide.com/wp-content/uploads/tours/pano' map_only='false']
the tour using the custom code is loading the tour now :D

...however the tour with the standard short code is not loading yet :( . (i.e.:

Code: Select all

[ggpkg id=46319]
)

Another thing that I am trying to do is to eliminate the map in the tour:
I wrote the custom code as:

Code: Select all

[ggpkg url='https://the360guide.com/wp-content/uploads/tours/pano' map_only='false']
and include map_only='false' to eliminate the map, however the map is still showing.

In summary:
Tour is loading using custom code and iframe
Tour is not loading using standard shortcode
Need to remove tour map from webpage

Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.
