Hi andiwe,
I have a locally cutomised version of your plugin now! Maybe I'll manage later to merge it with your mods.
What I achieved:
- to call the CoolIris script with a specific item zoomed in
- to show the title (if any) under the pictures
- the usage of permalinks for an album or for a picture (very useful if you want to send a link to someone)
- to fix the html encoded titles to be treated correctly by the XML parser (e.g. if the picture title contains specific diacritics, e.g. á, the XML parser fails and the slideshow won't work) - basically what you have to do is to change the $title assignment in rss.php to
$title = utf8_encode(html_entity_decode($picture[title]));
Anyone can have a look on my site for the effect of these mods:
-> Open
http://tilusnet.homeip.net/root/e107_plugins/coppermine_menu/index.php?cat=22 and look for the 'CoolShow!' links - these are loading an album specific slideshow externally, i.e. without having to be on the page of the album;
-> Try
this permalink for the same album - as you can see, the titles with diacritics appear correctly under the pictures;
-> A
classic album view with 'CoolShow!' link and permalink;
->
Picture view with 'CoolShow!' link and permalink;
->
Zoom in on a specific picture - with titles, diacritics included
Feel free to ask questions about these mods, I'll gladly answer them.
Enjoy the world of CoolIris!!
Cheers!
