Problem with GEOS showCategory Addon

[luxtom]

Hello Forum, Hello Geos,

I am using the showcategory addon from GEOS and it works very well, except for two things.

1. it seems that the tags dont use different languages. If I change from english to german, the category tag <SC_CAT_NAME> does not change language. It stays in english. You can see it under the picture (http://www.photograf.lu) when you change language.
On the gallery page (http://foto.luxtom.de/index.php?x=browse&pagenum=1&lang=en) the tag <CATEGORY_LINKS_AS_LIST_PAGED> works fine with both languages. Any idea ?

2. I would like to use the tag <SC_THUMB_ROW> but when I include it in my template nothing shows up. the source code simply stays empty at the place where the tag is.
If I use the standard <IMAGE_THUMBNAIL_ROW> it works, but thats not what I want, as I would like to show the pictures of that specific category only.

A third point is a wish. Would it be possible to create the tags <SC_THUMBNAIL_PREVIOUS> and <SC_THUMBNAIL_NEXT>. With having this I could include the thumbnail picture in the next/previous navigation.

Looking forward for all your answers.

best regards
Thomas

1. I would extend it after my back from vacations (after next sunday).

2. Ill check it within few secs (at your blog) and at my test enviroment.

3. Its good idea :)

Thanks GEOS

take your time and enjoy your holiday. If you need some more info, simply mail me or post here.


regarding point 2. this is how it looks after the page is displayed:

<tr>
<td colspan="3" align="center" valign="middle">

</td>
</tr>


and this is the source code


<tr>
<td colspan="3" align="center" valign="middle">
<SC_THUMB_ROW>
</td>
</tr>

1. Its fixed now. There should be update soon.

2. Check if you have set inside addon at config part $sc_th_row = 1;. If not then do it.

3. It try to add it before this soon release.

i'm using pp 1.6 and GeoS Show Category ADDON $Rev: 46 $.

and i'm unable to get category id, using <SC_CAT_ID>
(variable been tried both standalone and/or in proper url)

i.e; in image_template:
<a href="http://www.domain.com/gallery/index.php?showimage=<SC_IMAGE_PREVIOUS_ID>&category=<SC_CAT_ID>">cat prev</a>

provides an example output of hxxp://www.domain.com/gallery/index.php?showimage=104&category=
which is blank at the end.

(i tried index.php?category=<SC_CAT_ID>&showimage=<SC_IMAGE_PREVIOUS_ID> as well.)

when i try to get category name, there says "every category".
(info: all images have categories + no images has two categories)

also, i tried all $variables "on" in addon file.
any help will be appreciated, thank you.

[GeoS]

<SC_CAT_ID> shows cat_id only when it is in the URL.

Right now I must solve issue with my local Apache 2.2.x which was part of my SVN enviroment. Without it I cant release newer version of addon (which right now is ready).

Please be patient.

[GeoS]

Issues with Apache 2.2.6 under Win was very funny - one dot in dir name within one of virtualhosts. Problems with webdav are also solved and SVN repository is back.

That is why you can check changelog at this topic and read about new stuff:

PS In all my "fresh" addons there is always Paypal button thanks to which you can donate process of creating next releases of it. The amount of money doesnt matter - the most important for me is to see its worth to sleep less, to read about new technologies, to search new solutions and think about new ideas.

This might of already been covered.. .but is there anyway to get more than one 5 image row of images in the browse section?

[GeoS]

Go to admin panel:
yourdomain.com/admin/index.php?view=options&optionsview=thumb

and update value of thumbnails in row.

Was wondering if you were able to find the fix? having the same issue.

[GeoS]

As you didnt go to the mode of watching images from selected category, then category parameter is empty.

Read carefully all posts.
