Hi everyone,
I'm new to Coppemine and coming from Smartors Album in PHPBB. So much for my Background.
What I'm looking for is a MOD that works like this (http://www.4homepages.de/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1847) one for 4IMAGES.
Basically I need a different template for some categories with extra HTML and static images.
Right now I've hard coded all my galleries and I want to switch to Coppermine.
(My site contains nudity, that's why I don't just post a link for descriptive purposes)
Any Idea how to go about that?

Yes, this hack for version 1.2 also works for 1.3;

Hi Casper,
thanks for your quick reply. I've looked into the MOD and it seems that it does exactly what i've described earlier.
As I was working on transfering my old site into coppermine I got a different idea.
Sorry if that changes my initial request...
Instead of having to write a different theme for my categories it would be sufficient to check if there is additional data to be displayed and simply include that before and/or after the normal coppermine output.
Maybe one could store the additional data in files named 1 to x and say if category 4 is loaded coppermine would check if 4-before.php and/or 4-after.php are present.
If that is the case it would include it so that the output would look like this:
4-before
coppermine category 4
4-after
sadly my PHP knowledge is very limited.
So how do i check for an existing file and where would I include that code.
Again sorry for that shift in my request
