Get a array list of subalbums

jphilbert

GetAlbums()does not list sub-albums in the gallery. I have been searching on a way to do it without querying the database directly.
I tried a for loop GetAlbums($i) and GetAlbum($i) with seems logical did not work
Any help will be appreciated.

You have to use getAlbums() on an album object to get it's direct sub albums. So for all levels you need to do this recursively.

ok bet.

There is an admin function--`genAlbumList()` that will give you a list of all the albums a user has the right to upload to. (actually, you can specify the rights you desire, the default is upload)

I like that better ... no need to load folders that a user can see anyway..but it does not work ...\

It is an admin function so you would have to load the admin functions file. Admin functions are of course not available on the front end.

sbillard

And it is not an object method, so you just call the function.

Ok got you .. thanks for your help ... I removed all the legacy and Mysql codes.

hi

I wish to improve google map plugin : I wish to display all pictures (with geo data, of course) of the gallery on a map, with a link from gallery page for example.

do you think the function `genAlbumList()` may help me to do that ?

acrylian

Yes, as you need the album objects to get the images. Do you really want to do that? If you have a lot of images this could possibly slow down the site quite a bit.

do not forget that this is currently an ADMIN function, so you will have to load those on the front end.
