more than one photo per day (done)

[raminia]

I've already added this to the next version but I want it to be more tested.
changing the admin/index.php in about line 420~450 where it is going to save the new post will do the job.

// save new post
if($_GET['x'] == "save") {
$headline = clean($_POST['headline']);
$body = clean($_POST['body']);
$datetime =
$_POST['post_year']."-".
$_POST['post_month']."-".
$_POST['post_day']." ".
$_POST['post_hour'].":".
// modified by ramin add second to the publising time.
// This will enables you to send multiple entries a day
$_POST['post_minute'].":".date('s');

so this will add two photos on the same page?

if so, awesome!...i've been meaning to do this one myself!

same page?
no same day.

I dont get it then...you have been always able to post two or more pictures per day.....I thought you meant that they would show on the same page.

[raminia]

I meant same minute not same day actually. if you upload 2 photos one right after the other one of them will be missing in the thumbs!

[mark]

ah!!..ok...that explains it...i always wait many hours later sometimes...

oh well..darn. i was hoping for a multiple picture per day.....

i guess it wouldn't be too difficult to show photos from the same day on the same page.....what do you think?

of course, i wouldnt want that each time.....just when i wanted....hmmmm

[raminia]

it could be a simple addon.

if i had any php skills at all i would have made that modification ages ago. so useful for showing photos from one session together.

so....
am not sure i get this!
is it or is it not possible to post more than one image in a day?
other than doing a composite in photoshop?
i dont mid if it only generates one thumb on the browse page....
something like this: http://harlemphotoblog.com/harlem/07/04/2786.php

I just took some pics from the Dominican day parade and would love to post multiple images for tomorrow!

You can post multiple pictures on one day, they will be shown based on the time they're uploaded. (e.g. the last one you upload will be the first one on display).

Pixelpost is a single photo display, not a gallery. If you want to show multiple pictures in one post you should make a composite with an image editor.

what about this addon?

Exactly. I don't want a gallery, but I think it'd be a great feature to have a user-defined maximum (or maybe with a reasonable limit of, say, 3) of pictures to be displayed on one posting time. Like having something where, on the Add Image page, you have the default dialog box where you can upload the standard one picture and then beneath that, you could have a clickable-button that says "Add Another Photo?" and then when you click it, it displays another dialog box (and so on and so forth).

Let's say I have two pictures that, for example, I want to show the cause and effect of... With photo one that I want to upload, we have a falling object. In photo two, we have the result of the fall. Now, I don't want my visitor to have to go to another page to see the result as I'd rather just show them the cause and effect right there, plus it's easier for them.

You can say to composite it in PS but let's just say that I'm not home, instead I'm somewhere where the PC I'm uploading from has no Photoshop...I want to get them up and posted, showing the cause and effect, at one shot without having to write two descriptions, etc. or deal with copying and pasting or choosing categories, tags, and so on. It'd be nice to eliminate those extra steps and just get it done all at once. It should be a feature worth considering.

Just because you want to add a few pictures in one post doesn't mean you want to--or should have to--be using a gallery script. There are better scripts for gallery use and I feel people know that Pixelpost is not for that, but that doesn't mean it can't have the ability to do a little more. Addons are great and while this idea may not be the easiest feature to add into the base code (I don't know, I don't write PHP), it's an idea that is out there and should be, again, seriously considered. (and that addon previously mentioned kind of does a similar thing but you still need to use the Add Image screen more than once, which would be nice to not have to do in certain cases)

i looked into the admin/index.php and it only has about 320 lines of code.
Do you mind being a big more specific on where after what line of code this should go?

I would really love to be able to integrate this.
thanks

Ok,

Managed to get the <images_today> to work on my blog
http://www.georgedevenish.com/diary/index.php?curr_month=10&curr_year=2007&showimage=32

But i'm buggered if I can alter the padding/margins etc with CSS for that tag? Tried everything?

There is only a gap between the images because i have the link colour set to black. It is actually a border separating the images.

I don't need the images to be linked, anyone know how to remove the link from the images?

Thanks,
Nish
