More than one photo a day on the same page.

[aswilliamson]

Would it be possible for someone to make a mod that would make pixelpost display all the photos submitted on the same day appear on one page.
This has been talked about in this thread http://www.pixelpost.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=654

that way if say you take 3 pictures which are related you post them all in one day similar to this
http://www.sh1ft.org/shutterbug/

The advandage of this would be they all show up on the same page but continue to have seperate thumbs

thanks

version 1.4 which will be released very soon will take care of this.

[aswilliamson]

ohh nice

[raminia+]

no! v1.4 does not support this. is supports posting serveral photos in the same day, in the same minute but does not show them in the same page!
There could be a simple addon for this with a new HTML tag. no need for modification of index.php!!

[aswilliamson]

ok, anyone know howto do this?

it's not just as simple as a saying display current image, and then display prevous image, it should only display a prevous image on the same page, if the Date is the same, and this would have to be specified somewhere in the admin page.

I'm writing here witout testing
you can put this into an addon/

if($_GET['showimage'] == "") {
	$today_date = date("D",$cdate);
	$query = mysql_query("select * from ".$pixelpost_db_prefix."pixelpost where datetime='$today_date' order by datetime DESC limit 0,1");
	
	$today_image_thumbnails = "";
	while(list($image_id,$image_title,$image_name) = mysql_fetch_row($query)) {
		$today_image_thumbnails .= "<a href='$PHP_SELF?showimage=$image_id'><img src='thumbnails/thumb_$image_name' alt='$image_title' title='$image_title' width='' height='' /></a>";
	}
	$tpl = ereg_replace("<TODAY_IMAGE_THUMBNAILS>",$today_image_thumbnails,$tpl);
}

Ok I made it. compatible with bot v1.3 and v1.4
new tags to show the thumbnails and images of the same day in the main page.
new tags

<TODAY_IMAGE_THUMBNAILS>
<TODAY_IMAGES>

btw I don't have any use for this

tha addon code:
