Total image views per album (incl. subalbums)

Idrownpuppies

Hi,

I want to see on my index.php the total images views per album including subalbums. I've done it at the moment this way:

in my image.php I have:

<?php echo hitcounter('image', false); ?>
<?php hitcounter('album', false); ?>

So everytime the image is viewed it adds 1 to the image hitcounter and 1 to the albums hitcounter.

Therefore with <?php echo hitcounter('album',true,getAlbumID()); ?> on index.php I get the total views of that album.

The only problem with this workaround is, it doesn't work anymore if I work with subalbums. Is there a code that gives the total image views per album including subalbums?

Like <?php echo getTotalImagesIn($_zp_current_album);?> does it for the total number of images.

I hope you understand my problem (well its not huge a problem though, I still enjoy my zenphoto very much),

cheers,
Jeroen

sbillard

Certainly something you could add if you want.

sterk

and how can it be done? or is it already in zenphoto?

No, it isn't you would have to write a function yourself.

sterk

time for me to learn some php

or i can use Idrownpuppies way. only its not working for subalbums

acrylian

you can pass a the id of an album or image directly to the hitcounter() function to get it for a specific album/image. If you know the ids of them all you can summarize them. There is of course a way to do that more convenient via the classes. Another way would be to use a db query to get them. But I currently don't have the time to try that.

To display the total number of views of all images in the gallery

<?php
$sum = mysql_query("SELECT SUM(hitcounter) FROM zp_images");
$views = mysql_fetch_array($sum);
$total = $views[0];
echo $total;
?>

Or use the object model so unpublished and protected items and those from protected and unpublished albums are not counted.
