CpmFetch 1.4 On... Displaying data and images from CPG on your website

[Nibbler]

Doesn't this solve the problem ?

CODE: QUICKFIX FOR PEOPLE WANTING TO USE CPG BETA 1.4.1
(SAME NOTE AS RELEASE 1.6.0)
========================================
The Coppermine Dev's have (in what I would would say was a logical move) changed some of the internal database structure, and replaced a few fields with generic fields.  So instead of user web site, you have a few placeholder fields you can define into anything you want.  This of course breaks a bit of my code and stops CpmFetch from working.  I am going to work out a permanent solution, but for the short term, if you really want to use CPG BETA 1.4.1 (and the dev's would appreciate you doing so, so would I) you must edit the top of the cpmfetch_dao.php file.  There are two sections around line 54 and line 59.  You need to comment out the one at line 54, and uncomment the one at line 59.  Comment it by placing /* before it and */ after it.  Uncomment by removing the same from the other section.

I just tried to get this script to work on my site. I uploaded it and followed the instructions. When I tried to run the cftest.php all of the tests pass but I get the following at the bottom of the page where it tries to display thumbnails:
Unknown column 'u.user_website' in 'field list'
Warning: mysql_fetch_assoc(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /mounted-storage/home8/sub001/sc14959-TCLB/LN/cpmfetch/cpmfetch_dao.php on line 710

Can anyone tell me what is wrong.

[Sasse]

Thx Nibbler!
This alsmost works! I don't get an error now.
But it won't show the thumbs either.

The testpage now displays 6 "Images" with author and views, but: Instead of Thumbs there is only a text "One of the last photos submitted".
If you click on them, you get to the actual image, but the thumbs are not being displayed. It's a bit strange.

I figured out the problem, but I don't know how to fix it.
A script generates a wrong url for the thumbs. The domain is missing:  http://albums/....
How can I fix this?

Thank you for using CpmFetch 1.6.2

A series of checks is displayed below... These will help you determine where a problem is if one occurs. Mostly they will help me when you ask for help... but I strongly encourage you to try to fix it yourself - that leaves me more time for improvements. Some of them are purely informational.

Tests:
5 You set your partial URL to / PASS
10 No dots in partial url PASS

Trying to display some images:

Your installation seems correct so far, you should see a small grid of thumbnails from your gallery
[u]Nezn-Bámý sloupec 'u.user_website' v field list
Warning: mysql_fetch_assoc(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/pete/photos.pelhrim.cz/cpmfetch/cpmfetch_dao.php on line 710[/u]



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 recommend 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.

Here is the code

Code Select Expand


$objCpm->cpm_viewRandomMediaFrom(1,1,"album=67");
$objCpm->cpm_viewRandomMediaFrom(1,1,"album=64");
$objCpm->cpm_viewRandomMediaFrom(1,1,"album=60");
$objCpm->cpm_viewRandomMediaFrom(1,1,"album=59");
$objCpm->cpm_viewRandomMediaFrom(1,1,"album=58");


First three albums each show one random picture.   The remaining albums do not.  I have checked and double checked. Yes I have albums with those IDs.   You can see several of the albums here http://gelstoncafe.com/gallery/index.php?cat=5&page=1


I trying to create a randomized timeline of sorts on this page

ini_set('display_errors',1);
include "cpmfetch.php";
$objCpm = new cpm('/bilder');
$objCpm->cpm_viewRandomMedia (1,4,"");
$objCpm->cpm_close();
?>



Only album 24 is indicated! No errors and warnings will be displayed.  :-\ For further information I am available gladly!

Many Thanx. Frank.

Hi Vuud, I was wondering, is it possible to give a search query to cpmfetch ? So that it would only
return images with a specific title..

[dropmachine]

 


So is this issue with Line 710 Fixed or not? I can't get a straight answer out of anybody, and it seems nobody is posting anything that works.


Getting pretty frustrated....

[metamog]

This 710 line is fixed but I get another error as stated in a reply above (Fatal error...).

Hi

I'm having some problems with the options of CpmFetch...
What I want to display on my website is a random picture, that will link to that specific picture. This is works fine.
But, I also want to put just below that picture, a "From album: %a", and I want the album name to be a LINK to that album..

my current code is:

Code Select Expand


$objCpm = new cpm('/gallery');
$options = array( 'subtitle' => Album: %a');
$objCpm->cpm_viewRandomMedia(1,1,$options);
$objCpm->cpm_close();


But the subtitle is, of course, not a link..

I know there is an option called 'subtitlelink', but it changes both my image link and my subtitle link..  :-\

Is it possible to link the image to it's image-view (displayimage-1913.html, for example), and the subtitle to the album page (thumbnails-121.html) ?




Edit: Another problem is that the link doesn't use the SEF URL's..


thanks!

Morgan

Can you tell me what the fix is? I have yet to figur eit out.

Thanks very much!

[metamog]

Dropmachine:      inside the CpmFetch zip-file there is a file (I think it was "readme") that describes the problem:

It sais "edit the file cpmfetch_dao.php" in the lines: "This is for CPG versions prior to 1.4" and "This is for CPG v 1.4.1 beta 1"


Inside cpmfetch_dao.php      You should move  the    "/*"    and     "*/"   (start & end of code) between these two areas of text/code (if you are using a coppermine version above 1.4). (I think it was described: comment & uncomment with "code terms").


(I don't know anything about code, and my english is quite bad. I hope I make myself clear with these "common terms")

I've read through some documents and have not found an answer to my question. I have a rating script that has its own page. I was unable to get this script to run exclusively on my main page without the catlist and alblist, so I thought I could create a new index page just for the rating script and use cpmfetch to get the data.

Can cpmfetch get other type of data that was not orginaly part of coppermine or grab the anycontent file. My site is www.ratemyscrapbook.net. Thanks

[Joachim Müller]

anycontent.php can be included on another page using PHP's include or require command unless it contains particular coppermine stuff.

[jgsketch]

Thanks for the sugestion. My anycontent page does contain coppermine functions in it. So it was unable to load. "Fatal error: Call to undefined function: get_pic_data()". That is why I'm hoping cpmfetch will work with this page.

[Joachim Müller]

CpmFetch doesn't use coppermine's functions, but functions of it's own.
