Hello,

Slide show link does work from albums.
If I try to add a Slide show button inside a page, it does not work.

Is there a way to access a Slide show without first entering it's album ?

For example, a link like this one :
/index.php?p=slideshow&album=Demo%2FPhotos.alb
is only working if used within the Photos.alb album.

The code used on my page to display the button is :
[code]

<?php
@call_user_func('printSlideShowLink');
?>


[/code]



Thanks in advance.

Yes, it is not possible to directly access the standard slideshow page as that is dependend on the album context.

You can use the `printSlideShow()` function directly by setting the appropiate parameters:
https://docs.zenphoto.org/function-printSlideShow.html

If you mean with "page" a Zenpage page you can alternatively use the content macro to directly embed a slideshow:

`[SLIDESHOW <albumname> <true/false for control]`

Thanks acrylian.

Yes, I meant "a Zenpage".
[SLIDESHOW <albumname> <true/false for control]
is ok inside a Zenpage.

Iv'e used a third solution :
duplicate my theme,
set thumbnails to 0
removed next and previous buttons in album.php.
I fill the description to fill my "page"
I apply this theme to a gallery that has to be like a page, and the button to start the slide show works.

Easy.

So you actually just wanted to use the slideshow instead of the thumbs and single image page?

Then a better and much more streamlined solution would actually be to use the multiple_layouts plugin and create a special album.php page layout with those changes, call `printSlideshow()` directly there and assign that to the albums in question.

Yes, this is what I want for some pages.
I reply with some delay - sorry, I was out !
I will give a try to your last proposal.
