Can't Change Number of Columns
« on: January 07, 2011, 03:37:49 am »

I want to change the number of columns in the album list on my website's gallery page (http://lesteryocum.com/gallery).

To do so, I logged in as admin, clicked on Config, then selected Album List View and increased the value in the "Number of columns in the Album List View" from the default value of 2 to 4. (see screenshot "number-of-columns.jpg", below). I then select Save New Configuration.

When I refresh the gallery's home page (http://lesteryocum.com/gallery) I still get 2 columns (see screenshot "album-home-page.jpg", below).

Going back to Config/Album List View, the value in "Number of columns in the Album List View" is still 2.

FYI, my site is based on the "chaoticsoul" template, if that has anything to do with it. Below is the code for my "theme.php" file:

Code: [Select]
<!-- BEGIN album_list -->
                <li><a href="{ALB_LIST_TGT}" title="{ALB_LIST_TITLE}" class="firstlevel"><span class="firstlevel">{ALB_LIST_LNK}</span></a></li>
<!-- BEGIN lastup -->
                        <li>
                            <a href="{LASTUP_TGT}" title="{LASTUP_LNK}" rel="nofollow"><span>{LASTUP_LNK}</span></a>
                        </li>
<!-- END lastup -->
<!-- BEGIN lastcom -->
                        <li>
                            <a href="{LASTCOM_TGT}" title="{LASTCOM_LNK}" rel="nofollow" ><span>{LASTCOM_LNK}</span></a>
                        </li>
<!-- END lastcom -->
<!-- BEGIN topn -->
                        <li>
                            <a href="{TOPN_TGT}" title="{TOPN_LNK}" rel="nofollow"><span>{TOPN_LNK}</span></a>
                        </li>
<!-- END topn -->
<!-- BEGIN toprated -->
                        <li>
                            <a href="{TOPRATED_TGT}" title="{TOPRATED_LNK}" rel="nofollow"><span>{TOPRATED_LNK}</span></a>
                        </li>
<!-- END toprated -->
<!-- BEGIN favpics -->
                        <li>
                            <a href="{FAV_TGT}" title="{FAV_LNK}" rel="nofollow"><span>{FAV_LNK}</span></a>
                        </li>
<!-- END favpics -->
<!-- BEGIN browse_by_date -->
                        $browsebydatebutton
<!-- END browse_by_date -->
<!-- END album_list -->

Please attach your theme. Some themes have hard-coded config values.

The theme is "chaotic soul", what I referred to as the "template" in my original post. In that post I included the code from what I believe to be that theme's relevant section.

Proof that your theme has at least one hard-coded config value: http://lesteryocum.com/gallery/?theme=curve

There you can see your 4 columns :)

Excellent! Great way to proof what I'm trying to do.

I've attached the theme.php file. Thanks again!

Remove / comment out the following line in your theme.php file:
Code: [Select]
$CONFIG['album_list_cols'] = 2; // sets "Number of columns for the album list = 3"
