gallery.goToPage()

[agdm]

After matching a part of the url with an element in json, I get an index of that particular slide. The problem is calling gallery.goToPage() on that index... It always seems to just load the second slide during normal execution but if I use the console, I can go directly to the slide using that function.

Ex: lets say the index is 31... it goes to slide num:2.

The only clue I have is that upcoming == "311" if my index is 31 which seems like a type error. This variable is set in gallery.onFlip();

All I need to do is call goToPage on load and have it execute properly.

code

// if slide alias is in thePath
            var thePath = document.location.pathname
            var firstSlideAlias = thePath.substring(thePath.lastIndexOf('/'), thePath.length);

            //conforms to a path with an gallery or slide alias appended
            if (  (thePath.match(/\//g)||[]).length === 5 ) {

                if ( firstSlideAlias.length > 1 ) {
                    firstSlideAlias = firstSlideAlias.replace('/','');  
                    for (var i in slides) {
                            if ( firstSlideAlias === slides[i].alias ) {
                                console.log(firstSlideAlias);
                                console.log(slides[i].alias);
                                slideIndex = i;
                            }
                    }

                    console.log(slides[slideIndex]);
                    console.log(slideIndex);
                    gallery.goToPage(slideIndex);

                } 

            }

fixed by wrapping in setTimeout()

if (  (thePath.match(/\//g)||[]).length === 5 ) {               
    if ( firstSlideAlias.length > 1 ) {
        firstSlideAlias = firstSlideAlias.replace('/','');  
        for (var i in slides) {
                if ( firstSlideAlias === slides[i].alias ) {
                    slideIndex = i;
                    setTimeout(function(){
                        gallery.goToPage(slideIndex);
                    }, 100);
                }
        }
    } 
}

Had the same issue, and was a mistake from me. Be sure to pass a number to the goToPage() method, or convert your string to Int ( parseInt( (yourIndex) , 10);
