Topic: Aeva Media Block

[avenger]

I have put together a neat little slide-show package that will display Aeva photos and/or SMF forum photos (image attachments) in a portal block.

CLICK HERE  to view the relevant thread. You might have to login/register to download files.

Specific settings for what you want displayed are done in the block itself and also the settings.php file of the package provided in that thread.

The settings.php file from the package I put together will allow you to edit how the slideshow looks so one can choose a view with 1 large photo and several thumbnails such as the one in the link you provided.

wow! really.....Bad that i'm not PHP fluent...But I'll give it my best try

thanks!

[avenger]

ok, after a bit of struggling with PHP,    I'm stuck! all i was able to do with it was speed up the show... can anyone help me with this...i have attached a pic of what i get,

it says to define number of columns etc in the php, changing that doesn't make anything happen...btw I'm now refering to the help sites

if any of you could help with this it would be great!

cheers!

Hmm... At the bottom of that settings.php file there is a list of globals that needs to be either omitted or remark tags placed around it.
Even after testing this myself, any changes made here do not seem to take effect... This is something I will have to fix and then I will release a new version.  Thank you for discovering this issue.
For now, admins will have to use it as is (no thumbnails display).

Thanks underdog,
Hope it will be some time around soon

I leave the code with an image at a time but random

Code: [Select]

function show_aeva_media_block()
{
   global $sourcedir;

   // Set amount visible
   $visible = 1;

   // Load the language file
   loadLanguage('Aeva');

   // Grab the file.
   if (file_exists($sourcedir . '/Aeva-Subs.php'))
      require_once($sourcedir . '/Aeva-Subs.php');

   // If it doesn't exist, tell them this and stop running.
   else
   {
      echo '<b>You don\'t have Aeva installed! Unable to continue!</b>';
      return;
   }

   // Use aeva functions to show the media.
   $images = aeva_listItems(aeva_getMediaItems(0, $visible, 'RAND()'), true, '', 1, false, '', 1);

   echo '
      <div id="aeva_pics" style="width: 100%;" overflow="visible">
         <div align="center">'. $images. '</div>
      </div>';
}

show_aeva_media_block();
I hope you learn

Is it possible to exclude a particular album to display random?

[b4pjoe]

Try this:

Code: [Select]

global $sourcedir;
require_once($sourcedir . '/Aeva-Subs.php');
echo '<h2>Latest Image</h2>';
echo preg_replace('~;thumb" width="\d+" height="\d+~', '" width="500', str_replace('"><tr>', '" cellspacing="8" style="width: 100%;"><tr>', aeva_listItems(aeva_getMediaItems(0, 1, 'm.id_media DESC'), false, '', 1)));
echo '<h2>Random Images</h2>';
echo aeva_listItems(aeva_getMediaItems(0, 12, 'RAND()'), false, '', 4);

This code works great. Just wondering though if there is a way to limit it to one specific album instead of it grabbing images from all albums?

Is it possible to exclude a particular album to display random?

What I need is to display 8 or 10 images but of a particular album, that is just there. Any ideas?


Thanks!

Thanks for the mod underdog.. but I am having some troubles.
I downloaded and installed the mod, added the code to a php block and when I try to preview it all I get is a error.


Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /var/www/vhosts/ozsportsbikes.com/httpdocs/Sources/PortalBlocks.php(3332) : eval()'d code on line 61


Any ideas what I have done wrong?

[roomeat]

OH.. And line 3332 contains this:

   eval($content);

[roomeat]

oops.. its looking at line 61.. so that line is:

   void sp_quickSearch()
      // !!!

[DaRKeN]

Nothing. For more, changing the code, do not use a single album that I choose 


Help Me please 

[z_dane]

Any idea to remove remark posted by xxxx in album xxxx.
I just want the picture appear in the list

Make sure you are adding a PHP block (not HTML) and that it is the proper one for your SMF version.

[roomeat]

Have checked and it is correct.. but still those errors.
SMF2.0 RC3

SMF2.0 RC3

I have just tested this on a smf 2 rc3 install and it works fine with no errors in the smf log.  I can't seem to duplicate your errors.

It does need to be edited for w3c compliance., which I will do for the next version release.

I need to pick the album I want to display images from.  How can I do that?

[marinaofpiraeus]

Hello. How can I display the images ordered by latest comments?
