Gallery3 - reload a page after save is broken

Question

I'm looking for someone who really knows a lot about the PHP code of Gallery3. Unfortunately, the support forum Gallery3 is locked. In spare forum no one could help.

My Gallery3 has many adjustments in the PHP code/Javascript. In addition, I have the Responsive Theme that was released as incomplete. I have fixed it, but only for my Gallery, not in general. Which reminds me but a mistake is made, I'm looking for now. The proposal to make everything undone, I can not accept unfortunately. I would have to if then start all over again. This would mean that more than 100 hours of work were in vain. I am not a professional in PHP/Javascript. I do everything in my leisure time.

I'm seeking a very specific point in the PHP/Javascript code Gallery3. It is the place that is responsible for the "reload page after edit a album/photo page".

The Problem: A saving for an edited album/photo page in frontend lightbox is directed to a blank page with the entry (example for main page):

{"result":"success","location":"/"}

and the URL:

example.com/gallery3/albums/update/1

and not reloaded to the album/photo page. But "save" is working.

Therefore my question is: In what file and where in the code is the function to find the "reload function"?

PS: Please only really helpful hints, no clever spells.

PHP: 5.5.9 Gallery: 3.0.9

EDIT --- NEW INFO:

I have yet install on a test-server a brand new Gallery3 with the Responsive Theme. This fresh installation have the same problem. I have testet both themes (Default/Responsiv) yet with the Firefox/Chrome developer tools. The test-result:

The "Request URL" is false. (???)

Default Theme Request URL: http://www.example.com/index.php/test/photo001 (with page-reload)

Responsiv Theme Request URL: http://www.example.com/index.php/photos/update/3 (without page-reload)

The Responsive Theme: https://github.com/deanstalker/Gallery3BootstrapResponsive/blob/master/js/gallery.dialog.js

Where to find the error?

I found these file entrys:

For the (false) reload URL:

./modules/gallery/helpers/photo.php: $form = new Forge("photos/update/$photo->id", "", "post", array("id" => "g-edit-photo-form"));

./modules/gallery/helpers/album.php: "albums/update/{$parent->id}", "", "post", array("id" => "g-edit-album-form"));

./modules/gallery/helpers/movie.php: $form = new Forge("movies/update/$movie->id", "", "post", array("id" => "g-edit-movie-form"));

./modules/user/controllers/users.php: $form = new Forge("users/update/$user->id", "", "post", array("id" => "g-edit-user-form"));

For the (false) blank page entry:

./modules/gallery/controllers/quick.php: json::reply(array("result" => "success", "location" => $parent->url()));

./modules/gallery/controllers/movies.php: json::reply(array("result" => "success", "location" => $movie->url()));

./modules/gallery/controllers/photos.php: json::reply(array("result" => "success", "location" => $photo->url()));

./modules/gallery/controllers/albums.php: json::reply(array("result" => "success", "location" => $album->url()));

./modules/gallery/controllers/albums.php: json::reply(array("result" => "success", "location" => $album->url()));

./modules/watermark/controllers/admin_watermarks.php: json::reply(array("result" => "success", "location" => url::site("admin/watermarks")));

./modules/watermark/controllers/admin_watermarks.php: json::reply(array("result" => "success", "location" => url::site("admin/watermarks")));

./modules/tag/controllers/admin_tags.php: json::reply(array("result" => "success", "location" => url::site("admin/tags")));

./modules/tag/controllers/admin_tags.php: json::reply(array("result" => "success", "location" => url::site("admin/tags")));

Answer 1

I started on this theme a few years ago and have since abandoned it due to lack of time and motivation to maintain the project.

I came across quite a few hurdles due to the tight coupling of the view and app layer; as well as the heavy reliance on jQuery UI.

Gallery3 left a bad taste due to poor execution and implementation. It has worked out easier to host on flickr and feed in photos via API calls.
