Has anyone else had problems with the <SITE_PHOTONUMBER> tag? It's not showiing anything for me right now.

[Dkozikowski]

On what page are you trying to display this number? It may only work within the image_template.HTML file.

[kevincrafts]

Is that a change from how it used to work? In 1.6 I had it on my about page.

[Dkozikowski]

I can't verify right now but if it worked in v1.6 then it should work for v1.7.

[kevincrafts]

Hmm a closer look at the index.php file shows that in 1.7 it requires an image ID. I liked using this on my about page.

[Dkozikowski]

OK. Well you can do two things.

Hack index.php for now and every-time you upgrade (unless we change this which we probably will soon).

OR

Create a addon file that can do this for you so you won't have to continually hack during upgrades.

If you need help with either option, let me know.

use <ADVNCD_SITE_VISITORNUMBER> instead, this should work in all templates.
As far as I remember I corrected it for the final release of 1.7 so <SITE_PHOTONUMBER> should then work as well.

If you want to stick with <SITE_PHOTONUMBER> download the latest developer release from here: http://pixelpost.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/
But be aware that this is the developer version which is not thoroughly tested in all environments and will change quite often.

Another warning: some files might also be depending on other files which might have changed.

[austriaka]

yes, of course you should use the whole package if you decide to use the developer version

I miss this <SITE_PHOTONUMBER> information too, from upgrade to 1.7 ...

[austriaka]

as mentioned above, this is fixed in release version
