Using multiple album.php - snagt - 2006-12-13
Is it somehow possible to include a piece of code somewhere that does:
`if albumname equals "illustration" or "photography" or "paintings", use album.php,
else if albumname equals (everything else) use album2.php`
?
That would be lovely - and save me from having to install zenphoto twice! (This is because I want the thumbnails on the illustration etc. pages to look very different than those on the other pages..)

If the changes aren't that drastic, you could even do that switch in album.php itself.
`if($_zp_current_album->getFolder() == "foldername") {
// Do special thumbnails
} else {
// Do regular thumbnails.
`
Otherwise, if you want to separate other things, hack your index.php (in the root zp directory) to look something like this around these lines
`...
if (in_context(ZP_IMAGE)) {
include("$themepath/$theme/image.php");
} else if (in_context(ZP_ALBUM) && $_zp_current_album->getFolder() == "specialfolder") {
include("$themepath/$theme/albumspecial.php");
} else if (in_context(ZP_ALBUM)) {
include("$themepath/$theme/album.php");
} else if...
`
The one with the folder check has to come before the one without.
Good luck!

Could this work with sub-albums, using getParent?

Absolutely.

Great! But...
If you have the following directory structure...
- albums
collections
** aw05
aw06
ss05
ss06
*** etc.
press
** elle-02.2007
vice-06.2006
*** etc.
--
... and if you wanted to use, eg. a custom image-press.php template for anything in the press directory, you'd need to do a check for every possible parent (elle, vice, etc.).
Or is there a function to check the 'root' parent?
Thanks

getAlbumArray($album->name) will give you an in-order array of the album path, just check the first element.
Alternatively you can just search for the folder name in the path;
if (strpos($album->name, "myalbumname/") !== false)
Either way will work.
