Group Pictures plugin

[Αndré]

I made this plugin for Stevo:

I love shipspotting. On my website http://www.stevo.be I have about 930 pictures.

Sometimes I take a new picture from a vessel that's better then the one I have on the website.
Yes, I can replace, but I like to put the new picture together with the already existing pictures, without counting the pictures. (930 pictures = 930 vessels)

So when I click on a thumbnail, I want to get on a page with the picture and file information and next to that picture I want some thumbnails with other shots I have for same vessel.

It groups pictures by user selectable database fields. In the thumbnail view only the latest picture is shown and the number of grouped pictures is added to the title. See attached screenshot of intermediate view or see the script in action here.

The plugin is fitted to Stevo's website, so there are some words like 'vessel' which could of course be changed.


Note: this is not a 'real' plugin, because you have to add a few lines to two core files. Installation instructions are included in the plugin package.

André,

Hope you can help me with follow problem.

If you go to http://www.stevo.be/thumbnails.php?album=5 you see my dredgers (see attachement)

When I click on Vlaanderen I, I see Goliath (http://www.stevo.be/displayimage.php?album=5&pos=2)

Problem is that Vlaanderen I is thirth picture in row, but uploaded I have 1) Shoreway - 2) Shoreway - 3) Goliath - 4) Vlaanderen I

Thx in advance,

Stevo

Actual deep link to a particular pic would be absolute, not relative, so the deep link to the Goliath would be http://www.stevo.be/displayimage.php?pos=-1319
But I can see and confirm your issue, the reference between the thumbnail and the target is off by one.

Copy the function theme_display_thumbnails to themes/<your_theme>/theme.php, if it does not exist.

Then, find

Code:

           if ($aid == 'lastalb') {
                $params = array('{CELL_WIDTH}' => $cell_width,
                    '{LINK_TGT}' => "thumbnails.php?album={$thumb['aid']}",
                    '{THUMB}' => $thumb['image'],
                    '{CAPTION}' => $thumb['caption'],
                    '{ADMIN_MENU}' => $thumb['admin_menu']
                    );
            } else {
                $params = array('{CELL_WIDTH}' => $cell_width,
                    '{LINK_TGT}' => "displayimage.php?album=$aid$cat_link&amp;pos={$thumb['pos']}$uid_link",
                    '{THUMB}' => $thumb['image'],
                    '{CAPTION}' => $thumb['caption'],
                    '{ADMIN_MENU}' => $thumb['admin_menu']
                    );
            }

and replace with

Code:

           if ($aid == 'lastalb') {
                $params = array('{CELL_WIDTH}' => $cell_width,
                    '{LINK_TGT}' => "thumbnails.php?album={$thumb['aid']}",
                    '{THUMB}' => $thumb['image'],
                    '{CAPTION}' => $thumb['caption'],
                    '{ADMIN_MENU}' => $thumb['admin_menu']
                    );
            } elseif (is_numeric($aid)) {
                $params = array('{CELL_WIDTH}' => $cell_width,
                    '{LINK_TGT}' => "displayimage.php?pos=-{$thumb['pid']}",
                    '{THUMB}' => $thumb['image'],
                    '{CAPTION}' => $thumb['caption'],
                    '{ADMIN_MENU}' => $thumb['admin_menu']
                    );
            } else {
                $params = array('{CELL_WIDTH}' => $cell_width,
                    '{LINK_TGT}' => "displayimage.php?album=$aid$cat_link&amp;pos={$thumb['pos']}$uid_link",
                    '{THUMB}' => $thumb['image'],
                    '{CAPTION}' => $thumb['caption'],
                    '{ADMIN_MENU}' => $thumb['admin_menu']
                    );
            }

Hi Αndré,

I am also using your Group Pictures plugin. It is working fine except the album links. When I click on picture 1, I see picture 3 on the next page. Similar to what Steveo said above.

I'm trying to follow your directions on the theme_display_thumbnails post... Where do I find the code for that to copy over to my theme.php?

[Αndré]

themes/sample/theme.php

Thanks it worked!!

@Αndré

Thank you for such a beautiful plugin.
But my question is that can we display the name of file below the files in group.
Like we display in thumbnail view.

Thanks

[Αndré]

Am I right that you want to display the file name below the thumbnails in the intermediate view?

Yes, u are right

[friendjain1]

I mean title or file name so that viewers can judge "what file is all about".

Open codebase.php, find

Code:

            $new_html .= "<a href=\"displayimage.php?pos=-{$row['pid']}\"><img src=\"".get_pic_url($row, 'thumb')."\" class=\"image\" /></a>";

and replace with

Code:

            $title = $row['title'] ? $row['title'] : $row['filename'];
            $new_html .= "<span style=\"display:inline-block; text-align:center; padding-right:8px;\"><a href=\"displayimage.php?pos=-{$row['pid']}\"><img src=\"".get_pic_url($row, 'thumb')."\" class=\"image\" /></a><br />$title</span>";
