hello everyone,
is there a way to determine the level of an album? i can't find a suitable variable...

let's say there is a structure like this:

main gallery
|
|---- gallery#2
|
|---- gallery#3

how to check when main gallery is reached?
played around with childCount and childIds with no success :-(

bye

If parentID=0 you are at the top.

I think you meant to say parentId.

Where can I find parentId?
{$parentId} does not work, how do I get the value in the smarty template?

The variable is $theme.item.parentId. I'm not sure if when you are at the top if it is blank or if it is 0.
