Title: Show Albums under User galleries section on Main Page?
Post by: realart on July 19, 2007, 10:57:14 am

CMG doesn't display albums under the user galleries section (on my site called 'Student and Alumni Galleries)

www.florenceacademyforum.com/gallery
This is for an art school called the FLORENCE ACADEMY OF ART

Other categories display as many albums as I want, but for some reason the user galleries are restricted in this way.  I understand the risk but I trust my students/alumni.  I want them to get noticed.  I would like the 10 most viewed users' albums to show under that category, for example.

I am really trying to promote students/alumni uploading their own artwork, but as it is they are having a hard time finding that section in the first place.

Is there such a mod?

thanks to all

Yes, did you searched the board?

yes, such a mod existed once upon a time, in the land of 1.2, according to this thread:

I am a novice and it will take some serious study before I can do this myself.

If user galleries were displayed more prominently, users would be more likely to use them.  Seems like an obviously needed feature imho.  Isn't CMG designed primarily to be used by communities?

Well in that case either you or someone else will have to port that hack to work with cpg14x.

CPG was primarily designed to be used by a single user (Admin).

Cool, well it's come a long way.  Good work guys.

I have a Norwegian in mind who can create this hack, and I'll get back.
