Album Explore Button for everyone

latrox · Aug 13, 2014

Hello,

can you please help me make an Album Explore Button for everyone.
Like that in the Dashboard.

Rodolfo · Aug 13, 2014

Essentially you only need to copy the $listing call functions bundled in.

latrox · Aug 13, 2014

Can you please explain me that in more detail

Rodolfo · Aug 13, 2014

Sure... listings are made in a very complex way that involves php+html declarations. This helps to make the binding to javascript and allow things like the ajax infinite scroll. If you want to craft your own explorer for albums you should try plating with the /app/themes/Peafowl/explore.php page. For instance you will see this in that file:

PHP:

$type = 'images';

There are 3 possible types: images, albums, users. So the listing in the themes are just an API. You can set anything like how many pages, some parameters, etc. You will also notice that there is a $tabs array that contains things like this:

PHP:

                0 => array(
                    'list'        => true,
                    'tools'        => true,
                    'label'        => _s('Most recent'),
                    'id'        => 'list-most-recent',
                    'params'    => 'list=images&sort=date_desc&page=1',
                    'current'    => $_REQUEST['sort'] == 'date_desc' or !$_REQUEST['sort'] ? true : false,
                ),

Note that list=images is a binding crafted for Javascript. You can change that list=images to list=albums and guess what will happen.

Currently the system is pretty raw and the "params" key with the list=images should be auto or there should be some kind of wrapper function that can put all this together easily, as you may be aware that is always the last thing you do because 99% of the people want features fast so it will be pretty interesting when I will finally be able to re-order things.

Anyway, play around with that and then simply copy explore.php to albums.php and route.explore.php to route.albums.php (or anything you may like) and you will have /albums in your website.

Thanks for the help 🙂
I will try it and give you an Feedback.

Yeah i can do it 😀 so good 😀 ty Rodolfo 😀

Edit: can you add album_view for this ?

Rodolfo · Aug 14, 2014

What you mean by "album_view"?

makaja2 · Aug 14, 2014

Like most viewed in explore

Rodolfo · Aug 14, 2014

Nope. Album views is not measured in the database.

makaja2 · Aug 14, 2014

Can you add this in next version ? Just for analytics or show top albums

latrox · Aug 14, 2014

@makaja2: Can u please give me your Settings. I cant make it work 🙁

makaja2 · Aug 14, 2014

ok i'll share for you when i come home 😀
