individual background image in some albums

[Nicolaj]

Hi, I have just started playing with Coppermine, and am wondering...

Is it possible to have a background image in some albums (and subsequent 'childs')?

Hope you can help me

Hmmm im not sure about having it only for selected albums and categories, but you can add this into your themes css file for an overall background image

Edit: gallery/themes/YOURTHEME/styles.css

Search for "body"

and add inside the { and } the following;

Code Select Expand


background-image:
url('IMAGENAME.jpg')


you can can also add this if you want the image to stay fixed, so when you scroll it wont move

Code Select Expand


background-attachment: fixed;


and you may want to set if the image repeats itself by adding

Code Select Expand


background-repeat: repeat;

Or if you dont want it to repeat

Code Select Expand


background-repeat: no-repeat;

This mod will let you have different themes for different categories: http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=25471.0

Why didn't I think of that 

It's okay... I wouldn't have thought of it either except that someone just replied to one of my posts with reference to the mod.

Thx TranzNDance

thought I had done a rather extensive search, but I didnt think of using different themes...

This should do the trick if I can get it to work on an album basis instead of category...
