Things on the outside..

[richardyoung]

What if I wanted to have like a mini list outsite of the ee install..

example:

I installed ee in

/pictures/list.php
/pictures/photo.php
/pictures/ .....

well what If I want to have a mini list of the last 5 galleries add in a location like

/updates/list-mini.php

could I do that?

Here's a simplified code for listing last five (or whatever amount you want) latest exhibitions with links to them.

IMPORTANT: Copy toroot.php to same folder as this code and change contents for toroot.php point (relatively) to gallery root.

Please.. let me be a beta tester..

-----------------------------------------------

anyways thanks for the code.. ( can not get rid of the smile dude)

had a couple of problems..

line 15 and line 21

Thanks, that's what you get when you don't test and just post :) I added the corrections to above code.

Now.. i am looking at added the top 2 or 3 microthumbs..

is this easy or kinda hard?

Everything can be done. Can you make a rude drawing or illustration of what your goal is so that I can see what is needed?

[richardyoung]

this kinda works also..

I was messing around last night.

I created a custom

/indexstyle/custom.php
and
fetchsetting.php ( just to manually over ride some of the setting)

then I cp the index.php to /outside follow..

it works.. but I just have to play with the .htaccess file to unprotect a couple of things.

what file ( or var) control text color and link color?

links..


Pekka,

i am so close, I did a lot of work on my own, include some of things I post but a lot more out side stuff..

I am having a hard time finding what coupld the a href for the follow page.

http://www.702daisy.com/preview/index.php

see ee wants to send it to the larger image size.. and I want to just manual redirect them

[richardyoung]

I know.. that it is in these few lines of code

print "";
print $goodlink;
print " ";
}
}
return;


if you go to the page you will see that it is adding an extra " and I don't know how to get rid of it..

[Pekka]

What about

print "";
print $goodlink;
print " ";

BTW, I just added something called "exhibition groups" to EE 1.5 beta, it is in this initial stage one level group system

My photos
--- cats
--- dogs
--- grannies
Sister's photos
--- puppy
--- piggy
--- mommy

etc. which may be helpful in galleries size of your site. Later it is possible to add more levels to the system if needed.

[richardyoung]

when I try that all i get is the links..

no pictures..
...................................

I am 99% sure it is something in this line

// print "" " . "" TITLE="" . "">";


never mind.. I got it...

this has taken 3 days to do...




print "";
print " " . "" TITLE="" . ">";
print $goodlink;
print " ";
// print $urli;
// print "&exhibition=" . $exhibition;


the key line is

print " " . "" TITLE="" . ">";

Why did I spend so much time on this little function..

just think about it..

on the main page of www.photography-on-the.net

* you can display the new 20 pictures, when they click on it they go to the gallery

* on a site like mind ( non-nude fashion) it gives people a rare chance to see what is inside before joining.

just think about it.. the options are endless..
