Using image tags on a custom page.

[Sun Zaza]

I respect your decision. No problem.

I hope another PHP GURU will like it to help me in this request

Please!

On the custom template I used this tags:
...

... in this way you must edit for every {image_name_xxx} your template ... !
... and so this tags are static, not like all the other tags ... they are dynamic ...
... and so I think, you can edit the image name in the template directly instead of use php code ...
... use in your template Foto of USA instead of {image_name_550} ...
... the result is the same, but without php code ...

Thank you mawenzi for your reaction.

Of course you're right, but what about {image_hits} (That what I want to reach ).
I want to use ID'S to generate the current hits of each image I have on this custom template.

For example:

Image                           Current Hits
Foto of Spain                  880
Foto of Brazil                  150

So, I need PHP!

What do you think about that?

[thunderstrike]

Ok so you need use each image ID for this. I ask but you say no - is all image ID.

1 - Foto of Spain: 880 (one image ID)
2 - Foto of Brazil (one image ID).

Is 2 diff image ID.

[Sun Zaza]

Yes. it's different.
Please don't tell you do not like again

[thunderstrike]

Now ... how can set all image ID in tag if is for each image ID ? I no get ...

@ cruxy

... is your list of images (I mean only the images) on your custom page static ... ?
... if no ... you can use a "additional_image_field" ... for selecting in ACP ...
... and then you can use a "right" php-code for all your tags in your list (and also for image_name) ...

... there are "image lists" (here in the forum) like e.g. "featured images", that works in this way ...

@mawenzi

... is your list of images (I mean only the images) on your custom page static ... ?

Yes, they are unfortunatly static. (I think it will be a mission impossible)

Oke you give a idea and I hope you'll help me.

I wil make an image additional field:

Code: [Select]

$additional_image_fields['image_featured] = array("featured", "radio", 0);

@Thunderstrike

How can I call (With tags) those featured images to use them in the custom template?
(I want only the link {image_name} to the image  (datails.php) in this list + {image_hits}) something like:

Image                           Current Hits
Foto of Spain                  880
Foto of Brazil                  150

NOTE: I want to use them on the custom page. I do not want to use Search.php.

You know now what I want to realise, so please If you a better Idea I will happy to hear it from you guys

[thunderstrike]

NOTE: I want to use them on the custom page. I do not want to use Search.php.

If want for use in custom page, you need for use $additional_field_array (see e.g in includes/functions.php file in show image function for variable).

[Sun Zaza]

Good, we are now in the good way

But if i have 1000 featured image, then I have to add more + 3000 lines to the functions.php.

I have an idea, but I can not code it:

Listen: What about to use a variable on the functions.php ($image_name_id) and then I can change the ID on the custom page.
That means that if I use {image_name_13} 4image will understand that I am talking here about {image_name}.

Maybe in functions.php something like: $image_name_id = $image_row['image_name].$image_row['image_id]
It is just an idea (Everything in possible )

Please use your fantasy to help me!

But if i have 1000 featured image, then I have to add more + 3000 lines to the functions.php.

Incorrect. If use $additional_image_fields and core fields, no need for add tag in includes/functions.php file.

Listen: What about to use a variable on the functions.php ($image_name_id) and then I can change the ID on the custom page.
That means that if I use {image_name_13} 4image will understand that I am talking here about {image_name}.

So - question is again - how use all image ID if details use $image_row with each image ID click ?

Maybe in functions.php something like: $image_name_id = $image_row['image_name].$image_row['image_id]

If create new array in global.php file, you use with all 4images for select images. One thing is you need for select all image. Is no for each (gallery slow if do this). Details.php is code with each select image ID from user. Is why is show one image in detail for each image ID.

I am sorry, I do not get it. What do you mean with it? Would you like to explain please?

... for your custom.php ...
... I think, like this ... but it is not the complete code ! ... just for example ! ...
... fine tuning is your part ...

Code: [Select]

$sql = "SELECT i.image_id, i.cat_id, i.user_id, i.image_name, i.image_date, i.image_active, i.image_hits".$additional_sql.", c.cat_name".get_user_table_field(", u.", "user_name")."
        FROM (".IMAGES_TABLE." i,  ".CATEGORIES_TABLE." c)
        LEFT JOIN ".USERS_TABLE." u ON (".get_user_table_field("u.", "user_id")." = i.user_id)
        WHERE i.image_active = 1 AND i.image_featured = 1 AND c.cat_id = i.cat_id AND i.cat_id IN (".get_auth_cat_sql("auth_viewcat").")
        ORDER BY i.image_date DESC
        LIMIT 20";
$result = $site_db->query($sql);
$num_rows = $site_db->get_numrows($result);
if (!$num_rows)  {
   $featured_images_list = $lang['no_images'];
}
else  {
   $featured_images_list = "<table width=\"100%\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"4\"><tr><td>Image Name</td><td>Current Hits</td></tr>";
   while ($image_row = $site_db->fetch_array($result)){
   $featured_images_list .= "<tr><td>".$image_row['image_name']."</td><td>".$image_row['image_hits']."</td></tr>";
  }
}
  $featured_images .= "</table>\n";
$site_template->register_vars("featured_images_list", $featured_images_list);
unset($featured_images_list);

... design of the list is your part ...
... if there is a mistake ... thunderstrike let us know ...

[thunderstrike]

I am sorry, I do not get it. What do you mean with it? Would you like to explain please?

Please see details.php file.

Look for:

WHERE i.image_id = $image_id AND c.cat_id = i.cat_id";

$image_id is mean the image ID user is click (e.g: details.php?image_id=1). After click, is show detail image of image ID 1 and no all image ID select.

[thunderstrike]

WHERE i.image_active = 1 AND i.image_featured = 1 AND c.cat_id = i.cat_id AND i.cat_id IN (".get_auth_cat_sql("auth_viewcat").")

With this - is select all image ID. Is no for each image ID ...
Is mean, if IMAGES_TABLE is 2000 image (e.g for 2000) - is select 2000 image for select some image ID in tag ...
