Title: Straight to album
Post by: Jumbles on November 02, 2003, 08:34:21 PM
Ive searched everywhere for the answer to no avail. How do I change the start page to go straight to the album instead of the album list. I want to go straight to the thumbnail page instead of the alblist, random, last uploads, etc, which seem the only options available in config.

Which album ?
Because you can setup hundreds of albums.

And when the startpage is Album X you can't see all the others

I only have one album (the album name is Line-up), with 12 photos inside the album. I just want to go to the thumbnail page of this album. Thanks in advance

go into the gallery.
pick the category.
move the mouse to the albums link.
copy the link
then make a new block with the link as content ...

btw: 12 pics? here in Germany we call this

Excuse my ignorance but I dont know what you mean. The way i understand in what you are telling me is that the Images will be permanantly there, were as I want a clickable link on the left (modules) to display the page.

thats exactly what i told you :-)

the Link to an album ist something like
modules.php?name=coppermine&file=thumbnails&album=5

now goto Administartion - Blocks.

start a new block - name it "My gallery" or whatever

in the "Content" field type


<br><a href="modules.php?name=coppermine&file=thumbnails&album=5">Gallery</a><br>

change the number (5 in the example) to your album number ...

aktivate this block

be happy .--.-.-.

I appreciate your help but I wanted the link in with the rest of the modules not a block on its own

well that doesnt work in Nuke. The "Modules" block just lists the Modules that reside in the modules directory. Just them. Nothing more. No Parameters.

If you want a link to an album inside coppermine you must type it in a block .--..-

or edit block-Main_menu.php and put a link to the album in there.
