Album "detailpage" parameter? [Solved, thanks!]

Post by Logodae »

The Album module's detailpage parameter doesn't seem to do anything for me. Anyone else? If so, any guesses as to what I'm doing wrong? I'm using the alias of the page I'm calling the album from, and the album has the Tables template applied.

Album 0.9.0, CMSMS 1.0.4. Thanks in advance for any help.

Album detail page is usefull if you have few categories and you want show only one albym from this category. Fpr example you are showing albums from category with id=3. On gallery page you add:

Code: Select all

{cms_module module="album" categories="3" detailpage="pictures"}
but album don't know where to display pictures from album that someone choose by clicking on album thumb. If there is datailpage param so album display pictures on page with that alias. There must be {content} tag in datailpage template to display pics.

ps sorry for my poor english

Oh, I get it -- thanks!

I'd like to use my {content} block for text, though. Maybe I'll see if I can hack Album a little...

You might try checking the "Check this box to show the content of the page with the Album tag above all pictures. NOTE: This can sometimes cause problems. If Album is not working, try turning this off." in the Options tab of Album.
If it works, you can display both text and Album.
You could also just add text to your Album's Description or template.

Hope this helps,

Elijah
