Search albums by username

[chrisyew]

Hi,
I'm trying to seach for all the albums/photos by a particular user, so if I key in the username of that person in the Search of Coppermine, it does not give me any album/photo created by the username. Why is this so and how can I search for all albums/photos created by a user (including those not in the User Gallery)?

Thank you.

You can get latest uploads through the user's profile page. To modify the search, alter include/search.inc.php:

find:

Code Select Expand

if ($query_all) $sql .= "OR filename LIKE '$match_word' " . "OR title LIKE '$match_word' " . "OR caption LIKE '$match_word' " . "OR user1 LIKE '$match_word' " . "OR user2 LIKE '$match_word' " . "OR user3 LIKE '$match_word' " . "OR user4 LIKE '$match_word' ";

change to :

Code Select Expand

if ($query_all) $sql .= "OR filename LIKE '$match_word' " . "OR title LIKE '$match_word' " . "OR caption LIKE '$match_word' " . "OR user1 LIKE '$match_word' " . "OR user2 LIKE '$match_word' " . "OR user3 LIKE '$match_word' " . "OR user4 LIKE '$match_word' OR owner_name LIKE '$match_word'";

Hi Nibbler,

Thank you for your info.

The Last Additions in the user's profile - I'm rather confused by the term "Last Additions": do they mean all the photos by that user or only the Last (ten or twenty) Additions?

Will try out the search mod.

It is actually all the photos uploaded by that user, in last uploaded order.
