[resolved] How to create those fancy welcome pages?

Hi,

at the showcase most of the sites do have a welcome page with a huge picture showing up. After clicking on that one is redirected to the normal theme page.

I did not find a solution here how to do this.
Any help would be fine.

Thx,

Andreas

Hi,
install http://piwigo.org/ext/extension_view.php?eid=175  and http://piwigo.org/ext/extension_view.php?eid=153

with Additional Page, create a new page and choose "Standalone homepage" as template
somewhere in the code there is [photo id=1234 size=L], replace 1234 by the Id of a picture of yours
and change the texts if you need

I'm running 2.4.1 and when I activate ExtendedDescription I get the following error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function assign() in /usr/www/users/gschultz/GeoffSchultz/piwigo/plugins/ExtendedDescription/main.inc.php on line 434

As a result I deactivated ExtendedDescription.

I installed/activated AdditionalPage and instead of an image I get the following text:

[photo id=180 size=L link=no]

I do get the additional page, but no image and yes, there's am image 180.

I installed ExtendedDescription 2.4.b and that solved my problem.  I now have an image.  Wow, that was fast.  Thanks!

Feeling very inadequate here... I've been stuck on this concept for longer than i care to mention.. how much of the photo id needs to be inserted here, precisely what needs to be in place of 12345... every time i attempt this i get an error message indicating that i have a "missing picture id.."

Hi :-)

When you edit photo, you can see id photo (Numeric identifier)

Re: [resolved] How to create those fancy welcome pages?

just cant get it to display photo
i tried  standalone homepage in both the standard and the full HTML structure code
my Numeric identifier :  is 26

so i use

<div id="myHomePage">
  <div class="myHomePage_photo">
    <a href="index.php?/categories">[photo id=26 size=L link=no]</a>
  </div>

displayed result


[photo id=26 size=L link=no]
