Random photos from coppermine

[crip]

I have this Random Image working on my website, but we can't use a code like this in TP_can we?

Code Select Expand

<?php 
include "./cpmfetch/cpmfetch.php";
$objCpm = new cpm("/gallery");
$objCpm->cpm_viewRandomMedia(1,1);
$objCpm->cpm_close();
?>

Later, Crip~

That code runs OK in a block on our site!
Had it up for a while.

[crip]

php block, or html.. which kind, Article?

[redeye]

Standard php block or php article, works with either.

[crip]

I finally managed to get a Random Image display in a phpbox on my site by simeply moving the cpmfetch **/ Directory/**  into my forum **/ Directory/**  .. and changed the path a bit.. so those of you who have struggled as I have to get a Random image displayed in a php/block I hope this bit helps you.

This is the code I used:

Code Select Expand


print "A random selection:<CENTER>";
include "../cpmfetch/cpmfetch.php";
$objCpm = new cpm("/gallery");
$objCpm->cpm_viewRandomMedia(1,1);
$objCpm->cpm_close();
print "</center>";

You also need to remove the php tags Crip. Your post at the top of the page has tags in it (1st and last lines to be removed).

[crip]

I did, I used the new code below that code.

They actually both worked for me (minus tags).

gald you got it to work crip...it's all about the fiel placement with with cpmfetch...i have it running, outside coppermine, inside coppermine..on different servers pointing to ech other. i think a great script, and now with rss added...updates to the gallery should be cool

Crip,
I know how you felt when you were struggling with this earlier. I have been at this most of the day trying everything I have read and not getting anywhere fast.
I have Coppermine 143 running with SMF RC2 and latest TP version.
I re-installed a fresh gallery, fresh cpmfetch 1.6.2, and while I am not getting errors from the cftest page I am not getting any images either.

I had the coppermine bridge active and now inactive, and that does not seem to matter. I do have this working on the same server on another one of my sites and it went without a hitch, I duplicated that setup to no avail. That forum is running TP075 and SMF RC1 without the bridge to coppermine..

any thoughts would be greatly appreciated, so would any offer of help at this point..
