Main page directly to intermediate images, Skip thumbnails?

[Armstrong]

Hello,

I am trying to edit my Kubirk gallery version 1.4.x to navigate the following way.

Currently:
1. I start on my main page Image

2. Click on an album and it takes me to the album thumbnails Image

3. Upon clicking on a thumbnail it takes me to an intermediate picture Image

4. Clicking on the intermediate picture takes me to a full size picture

I want:
1. I start on my main page Image

2. Click on an album and it takes me to the album thumbnails Image

3. Upon clicking on a thumbnail it takes me to an intermediate picture Image

4. Clicking on the intermediate picture takes me to a full size picture

In a nutshell, I want to go from main page, straight to the first image in an album and view its intermediate picture.

Let me know if you need any more information

Any ideas? If I need to re-word my issue please let me know...

As far as I understand, you want to skip the step of clicking the thumbnails and go directly from album list to intermediate image, starting with the first intermediate image inside the album.
Subsequently, you'd have to modify the links from the album, making it point to an intermediate image.

[Armstrong]

that is correct. where would i find these links to change and what would i be changing them to?

thanks for your help!

edit themes/yourtheme/theme.php, find

    echo $spacer;
}from themes/sample/theme.php into a new line of themes/yourtheme/theme.php before

?>and then modify as suggested below:

In above code, find

Code Select Expand

'{ALB_LINK_TGT}' => "thumbnails.php?album={$album['aid']}",and replace with

Code Select Expand

'{ALB_LINK_TGT}' => "displayimage.php?album={$album['aid']}&pos=0",

If haven't actually tested this, but it should work. Please post your results.

I gave it a shot. it didn't seem to work. I tried a different mod on the board here and it solved it for the most part.

thanks

It would be helpful for others if you posted a link to the thread that you're refering to.

Others may like to know that I followed GauGau's instructions, and now it works exactly as expected for my own gallery: clicking on an album takes you to the intermediate image page for the first file in the album.  Thanks GauGau.
