I can already see all albums Not sure what you're asking for.

Hi,

Thanks for such quick reply.

The albums are showing correctly on the home page. I want to show names of all the albums in a menu bar under the 'Admin Menu'. For eg. The Admin Menu shows - Home, Login, Album List, Search. Similarly, below this bar, I want to add another bar which will show names of all the albums and the visitor can click on any album name directly to jump to that album while navigating through the site. In my case, it should show - Kitchens, Master Bathroom, Bathroom - Kids... (names of all the albums).

Sorry for not being clear in the first place.

In your case I would suggest to edit your template.html file and add some simple html links.

Hi,

I can do that as of now but the albums will keep adding and it may not be feasible to keep adding html links. Is it possible to dynamically add the links and it will automatically keep getting updated.

Add this function to your theme.php file:

Code Select Expand

function pageheader($section, $meta = '')
{
    global $CONFIG, $THEME_DIR;
    global $template_header, $lang_charset, $lang_text_dir;

    $custom_header = cpg_get_custom_include($CONFIG['custom_header_path']);

    $charset = ($CONFIG['charset'] == 'language file') ? $lang_charset : $CONFIG['charset'];

    header('P3P: CP="CAO DSP COR CURa ADMa DEVa OUR IND PHY ONL UNI COM NAV INT DEM PRE"');
    header("Content-Type: text/html; charset=$charset");
    user_save_profile();

    $album_list = "<br /><br />";
    $result = cpg_db_query("SELECT aid, title FROM {$CONFIG['TABLE_ALBUMS']}");
    while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
        $album_list .= " <a href=\"thumbnails.php?album={$row['aid']}\">{$row['title']}</a>";
    }

    $template_vars = array(
        '{LANG_DIR}' => $lang_text_dir,
        '{TITLE}' => theme_page_title($section),
        '{CHARSET}' => $charset,
        '{META}' => $meta,
        '{GAL_NAME}' => $CONFIG['gallery_name'],
        '{GAL_DESCRIPTION}' => $CONFIG['gallery_description'],
        '{SYS_MENU}' => theme_main_menu('sys_menu'),
        '{SUB_MENU}' => theme_main_menu('sub_menu'),
        '{ADMIN_MENU}' => theme_admin_mode_menu().$album_list,
        '{CUSTOM_HEADER}' => $custom_header,
        '{JAVASCRIPT}' => theme_javascript_head(),
        '{MESSAGE_BLOCK}' => theme_display_message_block(),
    );
   
    $template_vars = CPGPluginAPI::filter('theme_pageheader_params', $template_vars);
    echo template_eval($template_header, $template_vars);

    // Show various admin messages
    adminmessages();
}

Hi,

Thank you for you prompt replies and working solution.

Being little greedy, is it possible to customize the look and feel in terms of color and font size of this new menu alone?

Adjust this line to your needs:

Code Select Expand

$album_list .= " <a href=\"thumbnails.php?album={$row['aid']}\">{$row['title']}</a>";
