Just found ZenPhoto yesterday. works great stand alone.
The default theme is perfect look and feel for what I'm doing; question is how to implement into my current site.
what files do I use to code my HTML. album.php image.php index.php functions.php template-functions.php????????????
Basically want my Logo, Nav bars, footer....etc.... surrounding Zenphoto -- simple straight forward nothing fancy.
If I could get pointed in the right direction ...so i know where to start.
Thanks So Much

perfectly on page but with this error above it.
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/content/p/a/r/parts/html/fencing/index_zenphoto1.php:6) in /home/content/p/a/r/parts/html/fencing/zenphoto/zp-core/functions.php on line 1803
I actually used the plugin method like so; Basically placing in the middle of my webpage using a basic table.
index.php
<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr><td >
<?php
define('ZENFOLDER', 'zp-core');
define('WEBPATH', 'zenphoto');
require_once(WEBPATH . "/" . ZENFOLDER . "/template-functions.php");
$randomImage = getRandomImages();
$randomImageURL = getURL($randomImage);
echo "
<img src='". $randomImage->getSizedImage(getOption('image_size')) . "'
alt=\"random image\"\n" . $randomImage->getTitle() . '" />';
?>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
are you speaking of function-db.php? DataBase Connection?
where can I find the zenphoto connection code.
define('ZENFOLDER', 'zp-core');
define('WEBPATH', 'zenphoto');
require_once(WEBPATH . "/" . ZENFOLDER . "/template-functions.php");
`
and any plugin connections you need made must all be done before your script makes any output.
Is it possible to embed the index.php for the theme or album this way? So the album index is displayed within the page?
or would I lose the page look as soon as the link is clicked?
If so creating a new theme might be my only way.
I'm actually trying to avoid creating a new theme that matches my site....I like the Plugin method but not sure how to implement to all pages in zenphoto....( default theme..index.php, album.php, image.php)
Thanks again.......you guys are great
Except you want to do a lot of work to set up the Zenphoto environment for the page (index, album, image) correctly "manually". Then a theme would probably be much easier..;-)
I believe others have achieved this by using an iFrame but that is not a really elegant solution.
All I had to do is take the Default Theme code(index.php, album.php, and image.php) and rewrite it into my code and PERFECT
Page.
Had to go back a few times to re-write some paths...but works as I imagined
Thanks so much...what a great help

The "plugin way" is for example what we use on zenphoto.org. But in any case you will have to do some work.

It's made for Gallery2. Is there a similar tool for Zen?
I tried the function, but it did not work, I guess because the 2nd line, the embed.php file is missing.
<?php
require_once ('http://www.alternativephotography.com/photography/embed.php');
$ret = GalleryEmbed::init( array ('g2Uri'=>'http://www.alternativephotography.com/photography/index.phpmain.php', 'embedUri'=>'http://www.alternativephotography.com/photography/artists.php', 'fullInit'=>'false'));
if ($ret) {
print 'G2 init error: '.$ret->getAsHtml();
}
$g2data = GalleryEmbed::handleRequest();
if ($g2data['isDone']) {
exit;
}
GalleryEmbed::done();
?>

The Gallery2 embed file looks like this:
<?php
/* Define G2_EMBED = 1 to remember to generate correct URLs and return the HTML, etc. */
require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . '/modules/core/classes/GalleryDataCache.class');
GalleryDataCache::put('G2_EMBED', 1, true);
require(dirname(__FILE__) . '/main.php');
require(dirname(__FILE__) . '/modules/core/classes/GalleryEmbed.class');
GalleryEmbed::getEmbedPathByHttpRequest();
?>
I know absolutely no php, so i have no idea how to make it work, but perhaps it could be useful for some other of you.
The first sentence raises more questions to me than it answers:
"You can use zenphoto features in your main web pages by including template-functions.php in your php pages. To do this successfully when the page is not in the zenphoto folders include the following PHP code in you page..."
-Do i create a page called template-function.php? I can't find it anywhere in the folders.
-Where do i insert the php? in the template-function.php page? In a new page on my website, should the page be php or html?
The page to do that on is of course the page where you want to use Zenphoto functions...for php naturally a php page.
I strongly suggest to learn a few more basics before trying this. Sorry if that sounds too harsh. No problem with "php-zeros" in general, I was one once, too. But you will understand that this forum is really not the place to learn and teach general web techniques.
