You need to figure out what you want to exclude.

I guess ppl dont reply on threads that are marked as "Solved" coz i posted my problem in the thread that u gave to me but no reply so i m posting it here again

i dont know if i have done wrong
but instaed of using title, i used "aid" , but nothing happen. Still images from that album was coming on randome files
i did this
Code: [Select]
$sql = "SELECT $select_columns FROM {$CONFIG['TABLE_PICTURES']} WHERE aid <> 11 AND approved = 'YES' $ALBUM_SET ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT $limit2";
               
As suggested by rs25.com  in the topic.
Also , I need to use this for 3 albums, How coud  possibly I do this ?
Is this possible to do the same thing with Category Name or (cid) , Its because i have 4 albums in one category and i want to restrict all of them

Waiting fot ur Guidence

Try changing

Code: [Select]
WHERE aid <> 11 AND
to;

Code: [Select]
WHERE (aid < '11' OR aid > '11') AND

It has been a long time now since I did my little bit here, and have done no coding or any other such stuff since. I'm back to being a noob here

Your post makes no sense.

You can use IN to specify multiple albums:

Code: [Select]
WHERE aid NOT IN (10,11,12)
that will exclude albums with aid 10,11,12. And using:

Code: [Select]
WHERE cid <> 8
will exclude albums in category 8.

SORRY

I guess i was feeling sleepy when i posted the last message. I used cid on both places. What i mean was 3 albums that belong to One category.

I have corrected the post.

I have tried ""   WHERE cid <> 8   "" before but it didnt work. i get some error message while using  " cid  ".
I think i must use aid . So how can i restrict three albums that has " aid 10, 11 , 12 "  (These are Album ID's)

There is no cid in the pictures table. If you want to use it, you would need to call up the category table and/or the albums table.

That does seem to be the easier solution. Glad it's working.
