Hijacked thread cleanup

[jam1]

Hi there,
    I've been going through the documentation and reading the forums but I haven't found an answer as to why my webpage only shows the last 3 random images instead of all random images from all the albums.  Any help would be appreciated.  Here is the code that I use on my webpage:


<?php
  include "./cpg140/cpmfetch/cpmfetch.php";
  $objCpm = new cpm("./cpg140/cpmfetch/cpmfetch_config.php");
  $myarray = array('imagesize' => "int");
  $objCpm->cpm_viewRandomMedia(1,1,$myarray);
  $objCpm->cpm_close();
?>


cpg140 (coppermine gallery stored off the website root)
cpmfetch folder (stored in the cpg140 folder)

Are you bridged?

Are you bridged?

I do not have a bulletin board or forum yet - perhaps I will do that later.
I do have the bridging folder that is within the cpg140 folder and that is uploaded. Is that what you mean?

[jam1]

To give a bit more detail.

I used 1.9.4 dev version of cpmfetch and cpg 1.4.10 latest version. The script that I used on my homepage in order to display a random image from the gallery each time a user reloads or visits the homepage  is:

<?php
  include "./cpg140/cpmfetch/cpmfetch.php";
  $objCpm = new cpm("./cpg140/cpmfetch/cpmfetch_config.php");
  $myarray = array('imagesize' => "int");
  $objCpm->cpm_viewRandomMedia(1,1,$myarray);
  $objCpm->cpm_close();
?>

cpg140 (coppermine gallery stored off the website root)
cpmfetch folder (stored in the cpg140 folder)


And for some reason the random images are only showing the last 3 uploaded random images. I do not have a bulletin board or forum yet so I haven't done anything with the bridging files.

Sorry, but try the newest (1.9.6).  There was a bug fix that prevented images that were in user galleries from being displayed.  Does that sound like it may solve your problem?  I just figured it out last night after someone pointed out that it was failing on those.

The symptom was that it would not show those photos.

Hi Vuud,
     I uploaded and installed 1.9.6-dev version and I am still having the same problem, where only the last 3 uploaded images to the album are showing in the random image script (Note: all of the pictures are showing in the coppermine album but only the last 3 are showing with the cpmfetch script as above).  Do I need to configure the database differently?

You should not have to touch the database.  You ran the install right?

Are you bridged with a forum or something?

[jam1]

Hi Vuud,
     Yes, I ran the install and it showed me the 3 random pictures that I see on my site.
I am not bridged with anything yet (I would like to have some kind of an announcements or what's new page eventually but right now I do not have a forum. I do have inmail which is an email form).

Okay, so we know the install worked.  Please post the php code for the page that is not working now.   A solution is in site.

[jam1]

The PhP code is:


<?php
  include "./cpg140/cpmfetch/cpmfetch.php";
  $objCpm = new cpm("./cpg140/cpmfetch/cpmfetch_config.php");
  $myarray = array('imagesize' => "int");
  $objCpm->cpm_viewRandomMedia(1,1,$myarray);
  $objCpm->cpm_close();
?>

  $myarray = array('imagesize' => "int");
  $objCpm->cpm_viewRandomMedia(1,1,$myarray);
  $objCpm->cpm_close();
?>

PM Me a link to your install.php, a link to your gallery, and a link to your test page shown above.

thanks!

I just posted 1.9.7 which fixes this issue.  Note:  You will have to re-run the install since some of the configuration has changed.

It works! Thank You very much, vuud!!
You rock!

This tool kicks butt.

I had to make a tweak - is it a bug?

Code Select Expand

cpmfetch\cpmfetch_dao.php:              $this->OverridePathToAlbums($this->fullp
athtocpm . "[b]/[/b]albums", $this->partialUrltocpm . "[b]/[/b]albums");

What's the fix do?  I am not actively supporting 1.6.x much

The dev releases are much better, and will be the stable in a week or two

[MisterX]

my images were not showing when they were inside the albums folder. I think it was something like this

http://www.foo.net/cpg//albums/foo/foo.jpg

Hmmm, there has long been a problem with double slashes in URL's, but I tested it in some browsers and it did not seem to cause a problem.

The dev version will be stable soon... that function, in fact, no longer is needed or exists

Thanks for the post

That depends entirely on what you want to do.

Something like this will produce a random 6x6 grid.

The documentation on the web site will give you more ideas about what is possible.

Next time post in the forum area for support too... thanks!

can you elaborate on
img src="/cfimageget.php?category=7"

what if I have 40 pictures in category 7 and I only want to view 1

where do you plug in img src="/cfimageget.php?category=7"
behind a <a href="     
That doesn't work....

Maybe you have been playing with this stuff for years, but php is something I dabble in from time to time.
