Fetch names of Top Rated
« on: January 20, 2006, 03:16:37 am »

I didn't know if this should be in the CPMfetch board because this isn't the same engine used for fetching things.

A while ago someone gave me this great code to fetch images.
I would make a php file of this code and put it in the root gallery folder.
Code: [Select]
<?php
Header
('Content-Type: image/jpeg');
define('IN_COPPERMINE'true);
require(
'include/init.inc.php');
$pic_data get_pic_data('lastup'$thumb_count$album_name, -11);
$pic_url =  get_pic_url($pic_data[0], 'thumb');
readfile($pic_url);
?>

Then I would direct the img src to that PHP file. It works great!

I want to do the same thing, but i need it to fetch the name that the user gave his image. Can someone rewrite this code to retrieve that image data or point me to something another way to do it.

I found this explaining how to list albums on Dreamweaver.
http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=20714.0

I've tried and tried for HOURS!!! I can't connect to MySQL using my Dreamweaver 8. ARRGGH! I want to write the code manually, but I suck at PHP.

As you can see, I'm very stressed out about this.
Can someone help me with this? PLEEEAAAASSSE!

Have you set the database to accept remote connections from wildcard? Where exactly do you get stuck?

You mean asking my server to set it to remote connections or Dreamweaver to allow remote connections? In both cases, it's probably no, but i don't know where to try to do it.

Basically I put in localhost, my databse name and password (which is the same one I used for my gallery), and then the database name. I click test, and then it says that it could not connect to the "FTP Server" even though I've connected to it since forever to build my website.

 ;D Thanks for replying! ;D

Is your database on the same computer as Dreamweaver? If not, you're not supposed to use localhost, but the mysql server's address. You should contact your host for more detailed assistance. If you are self-hosted, you should reconsider.

Dang. I have a server that I bought from a website. But how come localhost works for coppermine gallery's access to the database?

Do you know any other means of fetching a list of top-rated.

Because Coppermine, running on the web server, is actually "local" to the mysql server. Dreamweaver, running on your computer, is considered remote.

If you can't use your current method, I'd recommend using cpm-fetch. You are unlikely to get much support with what you want to do now, whereas cpm-fetch's author provides excellent support.

cheers people that worked well

what happens if you want ramdom file instead and more than 1 image  ( 4 images )

if I wanted that code to be out side the coppermine directory would i change the
Code: [Select]
require('include/init.inc.php'); to

Code: [Select]
require('http://name_of_doman.com/include/init.inc.php');

Afaik this isn't possible, as coppermine uses relative references to the other include files. Outside of coppermine's root folder, you should use cpmFetch as suggested or come up with some custom code that runs the needed queries. Nuke isn't supported on this board anyway.

I still have no idea what you're talking about. I understand that someone used to post a tutorial about some complicated stuff in Dreamweaver, but I didn't look into it, as I don't have Dreamweaver. I was refering to cpmFetch.

If i tried using CPM fetch just to get text, would it work? I've tried to use it before and I didn't work because of my integration with phpBB.

I don't know - support for cpmFetch is being given on the cpmFetch boards exclusively. Using SMF/Coppermine/cpmFetch on my personal site, fetching text (stats) just works fine. Don't try to hijack threads.

OK, sorry. Anyway: cpmFetch support is only available on the threads that deal with it. Locking this one.
