    Is there a way to default to a collection, instead of having collections be the first item visible, may albums under a collection be visible, to keep the user from needing to drill down into a collection before the albums are available?? or deafult to a specific album so many pictures are available instead of just one collection..

    I thought about using many collections, though then they have to select an album under a collection to get to the images.. I have only a few categories.. I do not want my visitors to see only one picture( the colelction ) and then a few pictures ( the albums ) before they get to the pictures. Can plogger default to display albums for a particular collection?

    Found a fix..

    I found the global variables and set these according ly.

    I included a url parameter so that things would work right..
    this is my code

    if($_REQUEST['init']!=''){
    $GLOBALS['plogger_level'] = "collection";
    $GLOBALS['plogger_id'] = "2";
    }
    the_gallery();

    this did what I needed it to do!

    hi leeburstroghm.
    that's what I am looking for.

    so please,
    where did you add the following??

    <blockquote>if($_REQUEST['init']!=''){
    $GLOBALS['plogger_level'] = "collection";
    $GLOBALS['plogger_id'] = "2";
    }
    the_gallery(); </blockquote>

    I played around with the plog-functions, but this does not work propperly!

    thanks for your help

    zappa,

    The code looks like it is placed in your 'index.php' file within Plogger or in the page where you are including the Plogger code.

    I have just installed version 3.0 beta.

    this is now a new problem as using
    if($_REQUEST['init']!=''){
    $GLOBALS['plogger_level'] = "collection";
    $GLOBALS['plogger_id'] = "2";
    }
    no longer works to have a default collection.. How do we do this with the new version?
  6.  
    this is what I ended up doing to get mine to default to a collection..

    if(!isset($_REQUEST['level'])){
    $GLOBALS['plogger_level'] = "collection";
    $GLOBALS['plogger_id'] = "3";
    }

    perhaps it works for everyone, or if someone has a better solution, please post!
