Quick q about content on the main page
« on: August 15, 2014, 01:08:19 am »

Is it possible to have last created albums instead of last updated albums? - I find myself adding photos to very old albums, and it looks as if I have a gallery that hasn't been updated in a while (even though the dates underneath). I would still like to have the most recent stuff first.

  • newalb: New albums (differs from 'lastalb', as it uses chosen album thumbnail as thumbnail and also its upload time instead of the upload time of the latest file)

Thankyou. I have tried this but it doesn't seem to work. There is nothing that shows up/no group of albums.

Sorry, it's a plugin. I'll install it first, that might help. :)

Third reply; sorry.

I installed it. It's showing up with no titles and albums that I have created last year (that I added to today). I might not be working with the latest coppermine?

If I remember correctly you need to set an album thumbnail. If you set "random thumbnail", the album won't appear in the list.

Yes, that fixed it :) How do I add the title? People don't know what album they're clicking on?

For some reason it works out of the box in my live gallery, but I get the same result like you in my testbed (probably related to the gallery settings). However, we can fix this in the plugin code.

Open codebase.php, find
Code: [Select]
            $query = "SELECT p.*, alb_hits AS hits  FROM {$CONFIG['TABLE_PICTURES']} AS p
                INNER JOIN {$CONFIG['TABLE_ALBUMS']} AS r ON r.aid = p.aid
                $RESTRICTEDWHERE
                AND approved = 'YES'
                AND p.pid = r.thumb
                ORDER BY ctime DESC
                {$meta['limit']}";
            $result = cpg_db_query($query);
            $rowset = cpg_db_fetch_rowset($result);
            mysql_free_result($result);

            build_caption($rowset, array('ctime'));
            break;

        case 'randalb': // Random albums
and replace with
Code: [Select]
            $query = "SELECT p.*, alb_hits AS hits, r.title as title  FROM {$CONFIG['TABLE_PICTURES']} AS p
                INNER JOIN {$CONFIG['TABLE_ALBUMS']} AS r ON r.aid = p.aid
                $RESTRICTEDWHERE
                AND approved = 'YES'
                AND p.pid = r.thumb
                ORDER BY ctime DESC
                {$meta['limit']}";
            $result = cpg_db_query($query);
            $rowset = cpg_db_fetch_rowset($result);
            mysql_free_result($result);

            build_caption($rowset, array('ctime', 'title'));
            break;

        case 'randalb': // Random albums
