General Support: Slideshow for complete album?

Hi everyone!

I just installed Plogger for the first time and liked it from the beginning. There is one thing though. If I view a slideshow it only shows me the pics of the currently displayed page but I would like to see a slideshow of the complete album.

I could theoretically set the number of pics displayed on one page to a number high enough so that all my albums fit on one page but I rather wouldn't do that.

Any idea?

Thanks, MadEagle

Hello Mike -
is this fixed in 3.0 beta? can it do a slideshow for the entire album instead of just 1 page of the album, please? if so - how do i tell it to use the entire album, please?
thanks,
nicole

In the original code, the max limit is set to 100 (max thumbs in the album page and also in the slideshow) and it doesn't accept a limit of 0.
The problem is in the plogger_init() function, the limit for a slidedshow is set to 0 which should stand for no limit but in the plogger_init_pictures() function, if the limit is set to 0, it gets reset to hard-coded value 20.
Multiple solutions are available. You can change the limit value to 100 in the plogger_init() function and you will get the 100 first pictures (it's OK if you have less than 100 pictures in your albums).

Another way :
In the plogger-functions.php, find the plogger_init_pictures function and the line:
$sql .= " LIMIT ".$from.",".$limit;

Just before this line add this one:
if ($GLOBALS["plogger_mode"] != "slideshow")

you could also do this some lines before

>> if ($GLOBALS["plogger_mode"] != "slideshow") {

$from = 0;

$limit = 20;



if (isset($arr["from"]) && $arr["from"] > 0) {

$from = $arr["from"];

}



// enforce hard-coded max limit

if (isset($arr['limit']) && $arr['limit'] > 0 && $arr['limit'] <= 100) {

$limit = $arr['limit'];

}

>> }

This does it.
But for very large albums, it takes longer to load.
