getAlbums does not list all albums

jphilbert

Is there any variable that will not show all albums when using the "getAlbums command?

This is what I do currently to get published/unpublished albums.
$albums = $gallery->getAlbums( null, null, null, null, true );

Ok found a bug ... during testing this
$albums = $gallery->getAlbums( null, null, null, null, true );

Will not work if an unpublished album is under another unpublished album

What exactly is the bug? If an album is unpublished it is inherited by all children as with rights and passwords.

Lets break it down...
---------------------

2012 (main folder)
flowers (sub folder unpublished)
birds
insects
-----------------------
Now GetAlbums will list 2012 and flowers but anything under flowers will NOT show up..

Even with care listed as TRUE.

Sorry, the gallery class getAlbums only gets teh toplevel as on the index page. For sublevels you need to recursively use the album methods as well.

any examples?? Or can you explian a bit more?

I guess I have to revise this function

`
function getSubAlbums( $gallery, $album )
{
$list = array();
$albumObj = new Album( $gallery, $album );
$albumID = $albumObj->getID();
$parentID = getItemByID( "albums", $albumID );
if ( $albumObj->isDynamic() || !$albumID )
return $list;
$subalbums = $albumObj->getAlbums();
$subalbums = $parentID->getAlbums();
if ( is_array( $subalbums ) ) {
foreach ( $subalbums as $subalbum ) {
$list[] = $subalbum;
$list = array_merge( $list, getSubAlbums( $gallery, $subalbum ) );
} //$subalbums as $subalbum
} //is_array($subalbums)
return $list;
}
`

I found the BUG it was me over looking my subalbums function SMH
`
function getSubAlbums( $gallery, $album )
{
$list = array();
$albumObj = new Album( $gallery, $album );
$albumID = $albumObj->getID();
$parentID = getItemByID( "albums", $albumID );
if ( $albumObj->isDynamic() || !$albumID )
return $list;
$subalbums = $albumObj->getAlbums( null, null, null, null, true );
$subalbums = $parentID->getAlbums( null, null, null, null, true );
if ( is_array( $subalbums ) ) {
foreach ( $subalbums as $subalbum ) {
$list[] = $subalbum;
$list = array_merge( $list, getSubAlbums( $gallery, $subalbum ) );
} //$subalbums as $subalbum
} //is_array($subalbums)
return $list;
}
`

So it is solved then?

jphilbert

YEP solved ... false alarm. My main function with "getAlbums()" call my subalbums function I just missed that I needed to do getAlbums( null, null, null, null, true ) also so it can find all unpublished "NESTED" subfolders never had that situation before.
