All images on single page

bobearth

Is it possible to get all images on a single page, so I could do things such as this: http://www.cistudios.com.au/folios/digital/?show=images

"Possible" is the wrong question, it depends on your knowledge. (That site is a bad example from the usability point of view btw (not to speak for slower connections). Horizontal scrolling is very inconvenient...)

Please try a forum search, I remember that we had a/some threads about that in hte past (I don't remember the links though).

My knowledge is limited - I've successfully hacked the standard templates but wouldn't be able to write code to extend the provided functionality. I guess my real question is 'can i hack the standard code to get all images from a gallery on a single page'.

Thanks for your concern about usability, very nice of you, it was just an illustration of all large images on a single page.

I tried a forum search but can't seem to come up with any relevant posts, again this is most likely due to my lack of knowledge, i am unsure of the correct ZenPhoto terminology.

Would it be easiest to do this with large, uncropped thumbnails perhaps?

acrylian

Does not matter what type of images, it is just unavoidable to program some stuff since this is not Zenphoto's standard way of working.

Do you want to have all images you have on the index pages or do you just want all images of one single album on its page instead of thumbnails? That would make difference on how to do it.

I want each album to consist only of a full page of images (rather than thumbnails > single image).

Thanks for the response.

Ok, the uncropped, large thumbnails seems to work great: http://koala.cbr.hosting-server.com.au/~swellpho/index.php?album=test

I am now struggling with the size ratio though. I am trying to get all images to fit inside the 876 x 348 box (which image 3 fills entirely). I would've thought setting the thumbnail size to max width: 876 and max height: 348 would be correct. But it doesn't fit portrait images to 348 high, it sets them to 348 wide (eg http://koala.cbr.hosting-server.com.au/~swellpho/cache/test/chaos.jpg_348.jpg).

Is there something I'm doing wrong?

acrylian

Ok, great.

No, you are doing right. You currently cannot set a max width and height to fit images in a specific "square space". Zenphoto always uses the longest side for size. To workaround replace the thumbnail within the next_image loop

`<?php printImageThumb(); ?>`

on your album.php with

`
if (getFullWidth() === getFullHeight() OR getFullWidth() > getFullHeight()) { printCustomSizedImage(getImageTitle(), null, 876, null);
} else {
printCustomSizedImage(getImageTitle(), null, null , 348);
}
`

Ah god. Thanks so very much, that is so generous of you to take your time to share this knowledge. I really appreciate it, it works perfectly.

Thanks again!
