Promotional linking MOD and display content on other websites MOD

[carefree]

Allow other webmasters to promote your site with this simple promotional MOD

This code was specificly writen for http://www.free-online-games-central.com you can see a live demo here.
But works on any coppermine site in the same way.

1. Copy the code below anywhere in your template

Code Select Expand

<p><b>Link to this File!</b><br />
<textarea rows='5' cols='40' style='font-size: 9px; font-family: Verdana;'><a target=_blank href="{CONFIG_DOMAIN}play/{GAME_ID}/">{GAME_NAME}</a></textarea>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Add this File to your website or blog!</b><br /><br />
<textarea rows='20' cols='40' style='font-size: 9px; font-family: Verdana;'>&lt;center&gt;&lt;a target=_blank href="{CONFIG_DOMAIN}play/{GAME_ID}/"&gt;{GAME_NAME}&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object classid=&quot;clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000&quot; codebase=&quot;http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0&quot; width=&quot;{GAME_WIDTH}&quot; height=&quot;{GAME_HEIGHT}&quot;&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;movie&quot; value=&quot;{CONFIG_DOMAIN}games/{GAME_SRC}&quot;&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;quality&quot; value=&quot;high&quot;&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;menu&quot; value=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&lt;embed width=&quot;{GAME_WIDTH}&quot; height=&quot;{GAME_HEIGHT}&quot; src=&quot;{CONFIG_DOMAIN}games/{GAME_SRC}&quot; quality=&quot;high&quot; pluginspage=&quot;http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer&quot; type=&quot;application/x-shockwave-flash&quot;&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a target=_blank href=&#039;{CONFIG_DOMAIN}&#039;&gt;{CONFIG_SLOGAN}&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/center&gt;</textarea>

There are 2 parts, you can remove the second section if you dont have flash movies or games, but has the same effect as cmfetch for displaying content on other websites. If your displaying pictures remove all of the flash stuff (...pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="...) etc etc

2. Open funtions.inc.php, find line 691

Code Select Expand

$template_footer = CPGPluginAPI::filter('gallery_footer','').substr($template, $gallery_pos);

IMMEDIATLY after this add:

You wont have to change the variables here, but if you do,  change the code in template.html to suit

There you have it 2 full days of my life on this MOD   Hope you can find it as useful as we have

Modifying include/functions.inc.php is not recommended (and not necessary) at all, as it will constantly cause issues when upgrading. Put your code into themes/yourtheme/theme.php instead.

[skidpics]

looks promising, but the demo link does not work??.

[cip6791]

I can't get this to work.

[Joachim Müller]

Don't use this mod then. As I said initially: there are better methods to accomplish what this mod is supposed to do. This mod goes unsupported. There's a reason why this mod has never made it into the mod repository on this forum: because the dev team can't recommend using it.

[cip6791]

That sounds great. Would you mind sharing one of those methods? I would love to have a feature like this on my gallery. It would help a lot.

Thanks
