I'm using cpg 1412 and fetch 2.0.0.. the php code I'm using to display random thumbnail images on a web page is:

<?php
  include_once "./cpg1412/cpmfetch/cpmfetch.php";
  $objCpm = new cpm("./cpg1412/cpmfetch/cpmfetch_config.php");
  $objCpm->cpm_viewRandomMediaFrom("cat=partners:album=tours",1, 5, $options);
  $objCpm->cpm_close();
?>

but random thumbnails also show from a gallery called "awards" with album named "2006awards".

Can anyone help me please?  I've spent a ton of time uploading and retrying (and a ton of time reading support).

Use numbers not names.

name the category/albums using a numeral instead of using a regular name?  Or where or how is the category/album numbered and how do I access these numbers?  I did try using numbers by going by the order of gallerys/albums list.. 1st named category =1, 2nd category=2, but it is still not working.
I thought that might be the issue but I read everywhere and didn't see a reference to that other than in the example scripts and thought the numbers where just "for example".

Navigate to the albums and categories in your gallery and look at the address bar. You should see cat=x or album=x
