Exclusively search albums

RachelL

Just wondering if anyone has managed to modify their Zenphoto to search a specific album instead of the entire gallery yet? Sorry, I know I've asked this before, I'm just trying my luck again in case anyone who's familiar with Zenphoto has happened to do it with theirs recently.

Thanks in advance,
Rachel

do the search with an "and" operation on the folder name.

Thanks SBillard,

I was hoping for it to automatically search within that album alone.. I have a separate theme for each album, and was hoping to somehow modify each individual theme to restrict the search to that specific album.

Is adding "& albumname" or "and albumname" to a search word something added recently? This doesn't seem to work in the demo Zenphoto gallery set up on this website.. or am I entering the search terms incorrectly?
If it does work I guess it may be possible for each separate album theme to have the value "& album name" already in the search field, so it would be added to the search string automatically that way.. does this seem plausible?

Thanks,
Rachel

The search fields selection would need to have the folder field enaabled for this to work.

Anyway, I have another idea. You could add code to the search page to filter only items for a particular album in the next_album() and next_image() loops. That is probably your best bet.
