Trying to display some images:

Your installation seems correct so far, you should see a small grid of thumbnails from your gallery
Error in getImageTouse: Extension (strtolower): .jpg File:/home/knobben/public_html/coppermine//albums/miami2003/thumb_117-1783_STG.JPG
Error in getImageTouse: Extension (strtolower): .jpg File:/home/knobben/public_html/coppermine//albums/miami2003/thumb_120-2031_IMG.JPG
..........

My pictures are in another directory and
the path should be something like File:/home/knobben/public_html/fotoalbums/miami2003/thumb_120-2031_IMG.JPG

where can I find (and change) these settings?

greetings, Nanno

I have just discovered Coppermine Fetch. I read that it could display random photo and latest photo but can it display all the photo of an album?

I am doing a website for an association. In this website, all members of the association will havehis own page. And, in this page, I will describe first the member and after I want to add his album on the page. The album will be created first in the coppermine gallery.
So can comfetch do this?

[Joachim Müller]

yes. Why don't you just give it a try?

[laetitia2382]

It's a little bit complicated because I am using Mambo. I need first to integrate coppermine with mambo and after i need to use a module to integrate the php code. That's why I need to know that cpmfetch do exactly what I want. But if you tell me that I can integrate an album in a page with cpmfetch, I will try.

Edit the top of the cpmtest file and look for the line that says to change it to your directory.
Change it to /fotoalbums

The instructions are also online at: http://www.fistfullofcode.com/projects/copperminefetch/manual/ch04s02.html

If you are interested in that sort of thing

Well, you can ask for photos from an album and specify a certain amount.  If you ask for too much it will only give you what is there.

Examples of what it can do are on the web site... see examples under

when i change the cftest file that way and then after running it 
(http://www.knobben.net/cpmfetch/cftest.php)
i see

80 CPG Config file not found: /home/knobben/public_html/fotoalbums/include/config.inc.php FAIL

----

my cpg installation is in /home/knobben/public_html/coppermine
and my pictures are stored in /home/knobben/public_html/fotoalbums

do I need to move the pictures to /home/knobben/public_html/coppermine/fotoalbums to get cpmfetch working?
or do i have other options?

Ohhhhhhh, my bad.  I did not know you could put photos outside of the cpg folder.  Dang.  Just waking up here, check back later... I will figure something out.

Nice work on the Fetch scripts



Two questions-



How can I select a precise image from an album. I have an album of 180 pics from my latest trip - I have a 5 page journal that I want to pull in 5-10 photos on each page that correspond to the journal info. I could do this manually but I would rather use yoru script.



How can I disable the tables.   I would like just the image and link to be returned.



Thanks,

Tobias

There is a function you can call that will allow you to call a photo by PID (Photo ID Number)  See the docs here:

cpm_viewMediaByPid at

http://www.fistfullofcode.com/projects/copperminefetch/manual/ch07s03.html

You would have to code a bit of php on your end, but you can use cpmfetch to get the filename and the link and put it together.

Here are some examples of extending it...

http://cpmfetch.fistfullofcode.com/php-lib/showexternal.php?url=http://www.fistfullofcode.com/projects/copperminefetch/tests/index.php

Let me know if you find an easy way to get the PID for an image

[tgelston]

AH!

cpm_viewMediaByPid at

I had tried that earlier today and it didn't seem to work.  User error I guess because it just worked fine! Thanks!

Hmm - Don't know enough PHP to do this.  I checked out the link but did not see anything directly applicable to my question. 

I appreciate your help.

Alright... what do you want to do?  Just make that one image that you get by PID show up without using a table?

[tgelston]

Alright... what do you want to do?  Just make that one image that you get by PID show up without using a table?

Yes.   And a followup question using the array info I would like this to open in a new browser? That looks possible correct?


Thanks Again

Yeah its easy enough.  Is there a reason why you can't just have the table stuck in?  You can set whatever alignment tags you want on it...  Just wondering before I code.

Will try to whack it out later

Here is what I have that I am really liking right now

Code Select Expand

$options = array( 'alttag' => '%t || %S KB' , "tablestyle" => "cssfortables", imagelink => "large", windowtarget => "_blank"  );
$objCpm->cpm_viewMediaByPid(2173,$options);

Don't worry about the table thing. .  I am a little anti table but I am fine with using them - the trade off is more than fair.

Thanks!

But i dont see any thumbnails. I dont get a error message...

All i see is:

If you do not see thumbnails, or get more warnings then something is pretty wrong. As long as you are using standard prefixes in Coppermine, you should see everything. If you are not using standard prefixes, then you need to adjust them by editing the first three variables in the cpmfetch.php file.

If everything looks good, and you get everything else working, I'd recomment removing this file, or making it non-executable. No need to allow access into a phpinfo tag if you dont have to.
For further help and in general more information, please see the help pages for CoppermineFetch.

Any hints what could be wrong here ?

Thanks
Stefan

How do I get cpmfetch to show the actual title of the photo, rather than the filename upon mouseover?

Thanks.

The available placeholders are here and the settings you need

http://www.fistfullofcode.com/projects/copperminefetch/manual/ch06s03.html

I think you are looking for the ALTTAG setting, since thats what most browsers key in on

Can you post or PM me the link to the cftest.php file?

It would be nice to have a thread where sites using CpmFetch could show their ideas.
Not having much artistic flair myself  I would like to evaluate the talent of others
and maybe appropriate some for myself.
