Two quick questions:
A> is there an easier way to sort categories than "Move Up"/ "Move Down" in admin? (I have several master categories with almost 200 secondary categories in each which are NOT in the proper numerical order)

B> How can I add text to each photo category thumbnail page AND under each photo without going into each and every category and photo to do it? Can it be added statically by editing the PHP files? If so which ones and where?

Thanks,

Pretzelguy

is there an easier way to sort categories than "Move Up"/ "Move Down" in admin? (I have several master categories with almost 200 secondary categories in each which are NOT in the proper numerical order)

file ./admin/cat.php (version 1.2), line 95, replace :

Code:

$query.= " order by rank asc, dir asc;";

by

Code:

$query.= " order by dir asc;";

How can I add text to each photo category thumbnail page AND under each photo without going into each and every category and photo to do it? Can it be added statically by editing the PHP files? If so which ones and where?

I don't understand very well... you want to have a comment for the category such as "photos taken last April" and you want this comment (category comment) to appear under each picture in photo.php page (full size picture) ?

Yes, on the comment question... we want to add text similar to this that will show on ALL the Category/Thumbnail pages:
"Photos are grouped in groups of 5 Events. To Order any photo write down the photo file name/number and click on this Link (http://www.onsite-online.ca/orderca.htm)"

Under EVERY photo we would like to have:
"To Order any photo right down the photo file name/number and click on this Link"

Thank you for the sorting solution!!

about the text you want to add : what do you mean by "To Order any photo right down the photo file name/number and click on this Link". Is it "write down" or "right down" ?

Can you please explain what you want to do ?

pretzelguy · 2003-06-26 22:04:50

Yes, it is WRITE, as we are attempting to use the PHPWebGallery to SHOW the photos and a PayPal online form for PURCHASING the photos.
Therefore, we need to have some purchasing instructions showing in the Gallery Category/Thumbnail pages as well as instructions and a LIVE Order form Link showing under EACH large PHOTO.

Trouble is that we have THOUSANDS of photos and it would take DAYS to add this info manually to each photo. We need a way of HARD-CODING it into the Gallery PHP scripts so that it automatically shows on each photo page and category/thumbnail page.

I hope that is a bit clearer now...
thanks,

Are you trying to sell porn pictures ? If yes, sorry, I won't help you anymore. If no, show me your website, and I will give you the right way to do this kind of thing.

pretzelguy · 2003-06-26 22:38:21

ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!!
As I have said in SEVERAL posts we are a professional sports/dance/equestrian site that sells photos of the dancers/players/riders back to the individuals.
The site is www.onsite-online.ca and the gallery is at www.onsite-online.ca/gallery/
You can access it with this username password combo (which I will change shortly after so we can protect the photos of our clients)
Username/password - sent to your email!

Please see for your self that our request is VALID and we are being FORTHRIGHT and HONEST...!!!

I am encountering mail difficulties. Try to send on pierrick.le-gall@insa-lyon.fr

The good way to do what you want is to add a link under each image like this : http:// mywebsite/gallery/basket.php?action=add&pic=1875 and you create a file basket.php managing the basket of each user.

Your work :
1. modifying the files diapo.php and photo.php to add the links to basket.php with right pictures id.
2. create basket.php which manage the basket of each "customer"
3. add tables to the database to manage baskets.

If you think that's something you can't do by yourselft, contact me by mail pierrick@z0rglub.com (I have some reception problems with this mail today, so I won't be able to answer) Start by sending me a private message on this forum :-)

What you suggest sounds good.
We DO have a PayPal order form/shoppingcart that we are currently using to pass on the purchase info, name/address and payment information to our PayPal account. Is there a way to integrate the two?

Or would your idea work by it's self? How could we use it with PayPal?

I am a quick learner and can do a small amount of modifications (but not writing them) to PHP scripts but so far I have had VERY little experience with creating/modifying MySQL databases/data. I would be very nervous to take on the the MySQL part.

What would you need to help us out with this?
BTW you should have the URL username/password for our site by now... hope you can access it and see what we are trying to do.

thanks,
