Hi,
is there a parameter to limit the number of images a dynamic album has?
I have created a dynamic album sorted by ratings. What i would like to have is to limit the result to for example 10 images.
Cheers
Ralf

No, a dynamic album is just a saved search which naturally has no such limits.
If you don't need it as an "album" on the site itself you can use the object model with it like any other album to just show 10 images from it.
The idea behind that was - for the zpBootstrap theme (frontpage slideshow), to create an album with only a few images (that vary) in it.
Example: A dynamic album sorted by rating - descending.
A limit of 10 would show the 10 best rated images in it
Therefore (as far as I know) the object model will not help .

Well, sorry, that is not possible. For showing x images of something there is the image_album_statitics plugin. As always ready made themes may not suite everyone's need by default without modifications.

I did understand what you want It is just not possible that simple without custom coding. Dynamic albums and also normal albums cannot be limited that way. The only limit they know in normal album context is the items per page limit. But even that is of no help here without custom coding (and I don't even know the theme that well to tell what you need to do where).
No problem at all
