Works awesome, I was creating a script do to the same thing until I found the list of block code snippets. So glad I did.

i used this block for the first time and i noticed that it showed the username of the poster (the one used to login) instead of the real name (the one shown in posts and other members . i replaced this

Code Select Expand

// display the membername who posted pic?  need to get name based on ID_MEMBER
$gal_tmp = mysql_fetch_assoc(mysql_query("SELECT memberName FROM ".$db_prefix."members WHERE ID_MEMBER = ".$row['ID_MEMBER']));
echo ' by <a href="'.$scripturl.'?action=profile;u='.$row['ID_MEMBER'].'">'.$gal_tmp['memberName'].'</a>';

with this

Code Select Expand

// display the membername who posted pic?  need to get name based on ID_MEMBER
$gal_tmp = mysql_fetch_assoc(mysql_query("SELECT realName FROM ".$db_prefix."members WHERE ID_MEMBER = ".$row['ID_MEMBER']));
echo ' by <a href="'.$scripturl.'?action=profile;u='.$row['ID_MEMBER'].'">'.$gal_tmp['realName'].'</a>';

and it worked just fine ! i am not a coder , just experimenting , so i have to ask , is that ok ?

MinasC, thanks for posting this.  I was just sitting down to try and figure out how to do the same thing when I found your post.  It's been working fine for me on two sites.

I create php central block and I paste into SMF Gallery Random Picture code, but I can't view the latest pics.

Thanks.

I am loving this and have installed it on my forum. Many thanks for all your hard work 

I was just wondering if there is a way to turn off the click on thumbnail option (to see larger images) Please

I also have this and think its great.  My only request would be an option to see if comments had been added.

I think i've found the right part to edit,

Code Select Expand

// display the picture thumbnail and link it to gallery full picture
echo ' <a href="'.$scripturl.'?action=gallery;sa=view;id='.$row['ID_PICTURE'].'"><img src="'.$modSettings['gallery_url'].$row['thumbfilename'].'" /></a><br />'."\n";
but am unsure what to do next   please advise 

[MinasC]

if you just remove the linking part it should be ok !!! replace the code you posted with this one .

Code Select Expand

// display the picture thumbnail and link it to gallery full picture
echo ' <img src="'.$modSettings['gallery_url'].$row['thumbfilename'].'" /><br />'."\n";
