CGblog & Gallery - Loading specific gallery [SOLVED]

[seanus]

Hi guys,

I dont usually come hear to ask for help as I generally solve it by searching the forums but I cant seem to find any answers for my issue.

Im using
- Cmsms 1.11.4
- Cgblog 1.9.8
- Gallery 1.6

I had this working correctly before the upgrade to 1.11.

Basically i upload images to a subdirectory using the date of the blog post for instance 22-11-2012

In the summary template for cgblog i use this code

Code: Select all

{if $entry->Blog_Images eq '1'}
{assign var="imagesValue" value=$entry->postdate|date_format:"%d-%m-%Y"}
{Gallery dir=Blog-Images/$imagesValue template=BlogSummary number=1}
{/if}

to get the date of the blog post and apply in to the dir attribute to grab the gallery and show 1 image from that specific gallery.

It wont work now. I just get the folder icon. It applies

I have made sure the {$imagesValue} has data i have also added the normal gallery tags without the variable to see if it works and it does. Both these work perfectly

Code: Select all

{cms_module module='Gallery' dir=Blog-Images/22-11-2012 template='BlogSummary' number='1'}
{Gallery dir='Blog-Images/22-11-2012' template='BlogSummary' number='1'}

Im kind of at my wits end now. Has anyone encountered this issue and know how I can solve it. Im hoping to get this site live in the new year but without this feature it wont get signed off.

Big thanks for a speedy response
Sean

AWESOME! Thanks Rolf!

I was actually coming on to say I had solved it but yours was a much better solution. I was using this.

Code: Select all

{assign var="dateValue" value=$entry->postdate|date_format:"%d-%m-%Y"}
{capture assign='imgDir'}Blog-Images/{$dateValue}{/capture}

Same result not as efficient.

Thanks heaps for your help.
