Templates & Styles (Requests & Discussions) / How to add more Template Pages ?

« on: November 06, 2002, 04:01:28 AM »

Thanks Chris,

It worked perfectly. I can't wait to dive into the whole slew of templates and finish up the French translation. Right now I am adding some custom welcome messages and other greetings.

I guess my next thing is that I would like to be able to add a field to the database and tie it up to the existing category name! this way I can enter the translated version of my category name without having to enter it all in one field. I guess the problem is then what if there is more than one language packs?? hummmm what do you think?

Mods & Plugins (Requests & Discussions) / I am interested!!!

« on: November 05, 2002, 08:24:45 PM »

I agree that this is a very important feature to keep visitors up to date about the status of their images.

I have had some visitors asking about this feature while my gallery has just opened. It would be nice to let the owner of the image automaticly receive an E-mail with the name of the commenter and a link to his/her image to read the comment.

I had also some other things I wanted to chaneg and I succeeded yesterday
The Toplist wasn't the way I like it, I wanted to show only 3 tops, Hits, Rankings and comments. Well the last one wasn't featured yet in the script so I had to add it, but I also wanted to show thumbnails with the images and this took me quite some time since I have no programming skills at all. But I did it and it works wonderful, maybe someday when I have some more time I will write a tutorial about what I did to alter the toplist here at the forum.
You can take a look at the new Toplist here: http://haunter.student.utwente.nl/Terrarevolution/galleries/top.php

Cheers,
Vraxor

How about you just post the couple of lines you had to update and let us figure it out! This is really nice feature.

Installation, Update & Configuration / Short Category description for home page w/ language suppor?

« on: November 04, 2002, 05:40:05 AM »

Hi,

I'd like to be able to truncate (according to a resetable value within the admin panel) the length of characters shown on the home page for {cat_description}, this way I could display a little lead in to entice visitors to click into that category. Still the category page would make full use of the {cat_description} in its entirety. I guess runing {cat_description} through the length native function of PHP could do that?? I am too new to PHP to write it (Still reading the books ).

Also, I think a cool mod would be to somewhat tie up the {cat_description} (short and long versions   ) to the database and language packs so several descriptions could be attached to each categories/subcategories. This way, when using the l=[language] parameter we could further enhance the use of the multi-lingual features of 4images.

Anyway, if anybody feels like taking the time to do that I would really appreciate it as would others I am sure.

Thanks
Sam

Templates & Styles (Requests & Discussions) / Re: Close

Try {lang_welcome} instead

It's always "lang", not "lan".

Actually my last post had a typo. I do have {lang_welcome}

Do I need to update any other pages besides the template I want to use the new text in and the main.php of that language pack? for instance if I am adding to  home.html template, do I need to ad something to index.php? I am at a lost! the syntax I used is the exact same as found throughout. Could it be that lang_welcome is used somewhere else? I have tried with something else but to no avail.

Thanks for your help

Templates & Styles (Requests & Discussions) / Re: URL

« on: November 03, 2002, 06:29:36 AM »

Just add

Code: [Select]

?l=<language pack>
to the URL.  So if you have the language pack "english" installed, this becomes:

Code: [Select]

?l=english

Thanks that works.

Now, what if I want to add text to the templates, I need to also provide for the translated version  of it. I see that all the translation is held under the lan>[language pack]>main.php, but when I try to add some variables in main.php and call it from the templates it doesn't work.

for instance I added {lan_welcome} in home.html and then added  to lan>french>main.php this
 $lang["welcome"] = "[bonjour]";

Now when I call the gallery home page with the  '&l=english' parameter it doesn't work :  I know I am missing a step but I can't figure it out. The variable doesn't get initialized or {lan_welcome} doesn't get processed?

Can you help? thanks

Mods & Plugins (Requests & Discussions) / Support for Languages in category names!?!

« on: November 03, 2002, 04:00:16 AM »

Does anybody have a mode that would enable me to plug in category names in different languages . For instance if the gallery was viewed with the l=french option then the categories would be populated by french names entered from the admin interface during the add category process? That would really be a plus for me and I am sure for many other.

Other than that congratulations on a really top notch piece of code! you'll be receiving my $$ contribution soon. well worth it !

Thanks

I'd like to take this up a notch by using the language packs. What do I need to add in order to change template function of the language?

Thanks

Discussion & Troubleshooting / ImageMagick Jpg Support

« on: October 31, 2002, 06:05:03 AM »

The REAL fix for this is that Imagemagick comes without Jpeg support
by default, some legal issues.
So before you install Imagemagick you need to install the
Jpeg module jpegsrc.v6b.tar.gz , just do a search with google

if you already installed imagemagick, you need to do a "make clean"
then install the Jpeg stuff and imagemagick, in that order
klaas

Klass,

Do you know of any jpegsrc.v6b binaries already compiled for windows?  

Thanks
Sam
