Hi all! :)

Where can I find the mysql select of album categories that list all categories in album.php index?

have you had a look at root/includes/album/album_hierarchy_sql.php ?????

Yes! I tried to modify all selects in that page, but nothing...

I guess root/includes/album/album_hierarchy_functions.php ?????

What do you want to do?

I have a lot of categories and I want to divide them.
So I want to show first 20 categories and hide the rest. If someone want to see all, he has to click on show more or something like that


But I cannot find that select...

What do you think of creating sub Categories...

Maybe 20 Cats with a usefull title... 2012 2011 2010 2009 or others

And set your exist cats as sub-cats. If you understand what I mean.

Now you can set in ACP => Photo Album => Configuration => Album Index
Show subcategories in index table = NO

Ok, this can be a valid solution for years...but I have 100 categories in every year and I cannot divide months in categories. :(

You have 100 months per year ? I don't get your problem really. I know what you want, but I don't get why you can't use months as categories.

:mricy:
No, i don't have 100 months, but I have a lot of categories in each year :mricy:
I don't want to use sub cat for every month for a lot of reasons, 2 of these: not easy navigation and automatic category upload (this last is not easy to explain for my "beautiful" english :( )

O.K., I see :p. I don't know if actual blocks have an "iteration counter", else you could probably do something like.
I'm really bad when it comes to IP templating engine :p.

So here : the 20 first ones will have a <li> for themselves (new line), whereas the others will be on an unique li, separated per a comma.

1. <!-- IF block_category.ITERATION < 20 --><li>{block_category.NAME}</li> 
2. <!-- ELSE --> 
3. <!-- IF block_category.ITERATION == 20 --><li><!-- ENDIF --> 
4. <!-- IF block_category.ITERATION > 20 -->,&nbsp;<!-- ENDIF --> <!-- comma to separate --> 
5. {block_category.NAME} 
6. <!-- IF block_category.LAST --></li><!-- ENDIF --> 
7. <!-- ENDIF -->

Yes ;)

But I need that for loop... :P

block_category is the loop.

block_category is the loop.

uhm... i don't know if I understood.... are you talking about album_index_body.tpl? can we use "<, >, =" in tpl files?

We can use that in the if statement.
