Title: [Solved]: Latest Pictures
Post by: mareike on November 25, 2009, 11:18:47 am

Hi!
I want my 6 latest pictures to show up on my homepage.
How can I do it?
My Gallery: http://52203452.de.strato-hosting.eu/coppermine/cpg14x/index.php

Oh and how can I create a 'real' Coppermine url? As you see my Gallery link ends with php. If this is wrong here, tell me and I'm gonna post a new topic for this question.

You (and future readers of this reply) should always start with the excellent, comprehensive manual that comes with Coppermine.

As you can see by visiting your site: http://52203452.de.strato-hosting.eu/coppermine/cpg14x/

By homepage do you mean at  http://52203452.de.strato-hosting.eu/ ?

If that is the case you need to look at what we call content syndication. Fortunately there is an excellent tool that will do the trick call ed cpmfetch available here.

There may even be a module for cutenews already built to take advantage of cpmfetch like there is for Joomla, Mambo and some other cms packages so before you start fiddling with code check the cutenews website.

As for your second question we have a one question per thread policy to make it easier for users to search for good answers. As such you will need to start a new thread for your second question. I am sure you can understand the logic behind this.
