Enable View counter for admins only?

Hi,

I realise you can turn the View counter off/on in the Thumbnail view config, but is it possible to be able to enable it for admins, whilst disabling it for regular users?

Many thanks.

Modify include/init.inc.php

find

Code Select Expand


// Reference 'site_url' to 'ecards_more_pic_target'
$CONFIG['site_url'] =& $CONFIG['ecards_more_pic_target'];


after it, add

Code Select Expand


$CONFIG['views_in_thumbview'] = GALLERY_ADMIN_MODE ? '1' : '0';

Thanks, but all that seems to do is set "Display number of views below the thumbnail" to Yes

Maybe that's my fault. I don't actually have a user base, I've disabled the function for Guests to create accounts.

So my original question should of been, is it possible to disable View counter for Guests but keep active for admins?

Sorry for any mix up.

Disable it where?

On the Thumbnail view. At present when anyone goes to the gallery it doesn't display how many times that image has been viewed. This is exactly what I want. I just wondered if it's then possible to be able to show how many times that image has been viewed once I log in as the administrator?

I see. The code needs to go under here, not where I said before.

Code Select Expand


// Test if admin mode
$USER['am'] = isset($USER['am']) ? (int)$USER['am'] : 0;
define('GALLERY_ADMIN_MODE', USER_IS_ADMIN && $USER['am']);
define('USER_ADMIN_MODE', USER_ID && USER_CAN_CREATE_ALBUMS && $USER['am'] && !GALLERY_ADMIN_MODE);


I should really have tested it first.
