Title: Mod to sort thumbnails by rating in album view
Post by: divestoclimb on October 30, 2008, 07:21:18 pm: I tried searching around for this and didn't see it: has someone already written a mod that will allow sorting of album thumbnails by rating in the same manner that one can sort by date, title, etc.?

I'm starting to work on writing one, but I want to make sure I don't waste my time reinventing the wheel.

(If the answer is no, I could use some quick tips for where to find the sorting code...)

Post by: divestoclimb on December 22, 2008, 04:19:47 pm: Okay, I finally got around to doing this and once I really started looking it wasn't all that hard...

In lang/english.php (or in the language of your choice), find these lines:
Code: [Select]
$lang_thumb_view = array( 'date' => 'DATE', //Sort by filename and title 'name' => 'FILE NAME', 'title' => 'TITLE', 'sort_da' => 'Sort by date ascending', 'sort_dd' => 'Sort by date descending', 'sort_na' => 'Sort by name ascending', 'sort_nd' => 'Sort by name descending', 'sort_ta' => 'Sort by title ascending', 'sort_td' => 'Sort by title descending', 'position' => 'POSITION', //cpg1.4 'sort_pa' => 'Sort by position ascending', //cpg1.4 'sort_pd' => 'Sort by position descending', //cpg1.4After these, add the following:
Code: [Select]
'rating' => 'RATING', 'sort_ra' => 'Sort by rating ascending', 'sort_rd' => 'Sort by rating descending',
In include/functions.inc.php, find the following section:
Code: [Select]
$sort_array = array( 'na' => 'filename ASC', 'nd' => 'filename DESC', 'ta'=>'title ASC', 'td'=>'title DESC', 'da' => 'pid ASC', 'dd' => 'pid DESC', 'pa' => 'position ASC', 'pd' => 'position DESC',After this, add the following:
Code: [Select]
'ra' => 'pic_rating ASC, votes ASC', 'rd' => 'pic_rating DESC, votes DESC',
Now in include/themes.inc.php, find the following:
Code: [Select]
$param = array('{ALBUM_NAME}' => $album_name, '{AID}' => $aid, '{PAGE}' => $page, '{NAME}' => $lang_thumb_view['name'], '{TITLE}' => $lang_thumb_view['title'], '{DATE}' => $lang_thumb_view['date'], '{SORT_TA}' => $lang_thumb_view['sort_ta'], '{SORT_TD}' => $lang_thumb_view['sort_td'], '{SORT_NA}' => $lang_thumb_view['sort_na'], '{SORT_ND}' => $lang_thumb_view['sort_nd'], '{SORT_DA}' => $lang_thumb_view['sort_da'], '{SORT_DD}' => $lang_thumb_view['sort_dd'], '{POSITION}' => $lang_thumb_view['position'], '{SORT_PA}' => $lang_thumb_view['sort_pa'], '{SORT_PD}' => $lang_thumb_view['sort_pd'],After it, add this:
Code: [Select]
'{RATING}' => $lang_thumb_view['rating'], '{SORT_RA}' => $lang_thumb_view['sort_ra'], '{SORT_RD}' => $lang_thumb_view['sort_rd'],
While still in include/themes.inc.php, find this section:
Code: [Select]
<tr> <td class="sortorder_options">{POSITION}</td> <td class="sortorder_options"><a href="thumbnails.php?album={AID}&page={PAGE}&sort=pa" title="{SORT_PA}"> + </a></td> <td class="sortorder_options"><a href="thumbnails.php?album={AID}&page={PAGE}&sort=pd" title="{SORT_PD}"> - </a></td> </tr>Add this after it:
Code: [Select]
<tr> <td class="sortorder_options">{RATING}</td> <td class="sortorder_options"><a href="thumbnails.php?album={AID}&page={PAGE}&sort=ra" title="{SORT_RA}"> + </a></td> <td class="sortorder_options"><a href="thumbnails.php?album={AID}&page={PAGE}&sort=rd" title="{SORT_RD}"> - </a></td> </tr>
Note that if your theme has a custom value for $template_thumb_view_title_row in its theme.php, you will have to modify your theme to display the rating sort option similar to that last HTML block.

Post by: cmead on November 04, 2009, 05:11:02 pm: I made the changes to the code but cannot find the place where I select the RATING sort option...not on the config page. Can you help?
Title: Re: Mod to sort thumbnails by rating in album view
Post by: divestoclimb on November 05, 2009, 12:41:48 am: Config page? You should see a "Rating" row underneath all the others in the sort area.

Here's my gallery as an example: http://forums.aopa.org/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=2 The sort options are on the right side: "Title, File Name, Position, ..., Rating"

Post by: cmead on November 05, 2009, 10:02:11 pm: Wo...maybe I have no idea how to implement the changes you created - I'd love to get that sort option into the user interface..not sure how to do that. I was just trying to set the sort option in CONFIG to default showing the image with the highest votes first.

Sorry...newbie here.

Post by: divestoclimb on November 09, 2009, 10:43:37 pm: Oh, I see what you're talking about now. I didn't make any changes to that in my mod, but to make it a default you'd need to do my mod then change admin.php.

As a hint, open up admin.php and search for this line:
Code: [Select]
function form_sort_order($text, $name, $help = '')You'd need to add the options there, where you see the others listed. You would also need to add to the language strings in lang/english.php under $lang_admin_php.

If you take a look at the other parts of the mod it should be fairly easy to do. I'd walk you through it but I don't have the time to test and verify the exact changes that would be needed.

I'll bet you could also hack it into the database without changing the code, but I don't recommend it :)
