Another way to integrate Digg

I integrated Digg into my gallery with a little help from some old topics on the subject, but also some new ideas. Here's what I did:

  • Copy the entire function theme_html_picture() from themes/sample/theme.php into your theme's theme.php.
  • Find this section:

    $params = array('{CELL_HEIGHT}' => '100',
        '{IMAGE}' => $CURRENT_PIC_DATA['header'].$CURRENT_PIC_DATA['html'].$CURRENT_PIC_DATA['footer'],
        '{ADMIN_MENU}' => $CURRENT_PIC_DATA['menu'],
        '{TITLE}' => bb_decode($CURRENT_PIC_DATA['title']),
        '{CAPTION}' => bb_decode($CURRENT_PIC_DATA['caption']),
        );

  • ABOVE it, add this (this lets you generate a permanent link to submit):

        $this_page = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
        if (strpos($this_page, "?") !== false) $this_page = reset(explode("?", $this_page));

    (code found in comment on http://us.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.server.php)
  • At the end of the list of parameters you found in step 2, add this (UPDATE added the http: part):

    '{PERMALINK}' => "http://".$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'].$this_page."?pos=-$pid",

  • Copy and paste the $template_display_media section from themes/sample/theme.php into your theme.php, up until you see "EOT;"
  • Replace the last <table> section with this:

                            <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tableb" width="100%">
                                    <tr>
    <!-- BEGIN img_desc -->
                                            <td class="tableb" width="100%"><center>
    <!-- BEGIN title -->
                                                    <b>{TITLE}</b><br />
    <!-- END title -->
    <!-- BEGIN caption -->
                                                    {CAPTION}
    <!-- END caption -->
    </center></td>
    <!-- END img_desc -->
    <td class="tableb" align="right">
    <script type="text/javascript">
    digg_url='{PERMALINK}';
    </script>
    <script src="http://digg.com/tools/diggthis.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    </td>
                                    </tr>
                            </table>

My hat goes off to you sir for figuring this one out, as I've been looking for a Digg solution to coppermine for ages (and I'm no coder)... However, it's bloody confusing.
Step 2? What?

I hate to be picky, but do you think you could possibly rewrite this as step by step instructions? Please? I'd be amazingly grateful if you did.

Yes, I know I'm a n00b moron for not being able to figure this out.
