Can't find an appropriate Addon

hey folks,

I've installed pixelpost and I'm running a little site with it. Everything is pretty fine so far. Right now, I'm getting unhappy with the way, my site works and I'd like to change a couple of things:

-> I want to have a front page which displays thumbnails of my categories and their names
-> When entering a category, I'd like to let the user browse only those images located within this category

Is there an addon for this purpose? Can't believe that I'm the first one asking for something like this, but I've spend the last hour going through this board. It seems all a little messy to me and I wasn't able to find a thread with only a simple list of what addons are available, what they do and where to get them...

Don't get me wrong, I'm seriously appreceate the great stuff you are doing here. It's just that its hard to find some useful information.

Greetings from Berlin!

Mods to template

You must edit image-template.html and insert this tags where you want.

<CATEGORY_LINKS_AS_LIST_PAGED> list categories and show selected

<THUMBNAILS_WHOLE_PAGED> show thumbnails

others tags here

Also you can use GeoS Show Category ADDON

hey trauko,

thanks a ton for your help. i've downloaded the plugin and probably will get it working. the only question I have is how to get PP to not display the image template as the default. instead I'd like to have a page of my own listing the categories and let the user select a category first.

can you help?

thanks in advance!

I think that the easy form is to use a frame, I include an example to you

Write this in file index.html in your directory of pixelpost

Quote:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Frameset//SP"

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Site Title</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<META NAME="Description" CONTENT="PixelPost"/>
<META NAME="KEYWORDS" CONTENT="PixelPost">
<FRAMESET "100%">
<FRAME src="Site URL">

<NOFRAMES>
<P>Este frame contiene:
<UL>
<LI><A href="Site URL">Redirección a Pagina archivos</A>
</UL>
</NOFRAMES>

</FRAMESET>
</HTML>
Replace Site URL with your complete PP archive URL

IE. my site is http://trauko.org
my PP site is http://trauko.org/fotoblog
my PP archive URL is http://trauko.org/fotoblog/index.php?x=browse
