Now I have had a look around using the search function but haven't seen an easy way to do this.

I have a gallery which is used by people to host images for a UBB forum. I want to put (under each photo) a link to the photo and the larger version in plain text so the user can easily copy / paste it into the forums ...

eg I want

Copy and paste the following code into the forums to display your image.

(url=http://www.waw.net.au/gallery/v/wz/SE-Australia-02012006-0005UTC-250m-crop.jpg.html?g2_imageViewsIndex=1)
(img)http://www.waw.net.au/gallery/d/1239-2/SE-Australia-02012006-0005UTC-250m-crop.jpg(/img)(/url)

I simply cannot figure out how to get gallery to output a simple URL of my image?

Any help would be greatly appriciated!
Cheers
James

http://gallery.menalto.com/node/40396?highlight=generate%2Curl should be useful?

Thanks but the question was never answered in that thread and the long URL solution ....

{if !$child.canContainChildren}
<a href="{g->url arg1="view=core.DownloadItem" arg2="itemId=`$child.id`"}">{g->url arg1="view=core.DownloadItem" arg2="itemId=`$child.id`"}</a>
{/if}

Fails for me, producing the error message:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: getmimetype() in /home/httpd/vhosts/waw.net.au/httpdocs/gallery/modules/rewrite/classes/RewriteUrlGenerator.class on line 209

With the lack of response I take it this is not possible to do?

What is another decent gallery like program that will do this seemingly simple function?

that would be fantastic, but I don't understand why it is that hard- why wont a simple g->url expression work?

where are you adding this?
if you're editing photo.tpl in most themes you can use
{g->url arg1="view=core.DownloadItem" arg2="itemId=`$image.id`"}
this will be the url of the currently viewed size.
you didn't really give enough information to determine why you got an error about getmimetype.

Thats what I did on http://sandbox.p0ggel.org/gallery2/main.php?g2_view=core.ShowItem&g2_itemId=2787

Only addition to what mindless did, was that I added the forceFullUrl=true parameter to have it generated a full url instead of a relative one:

{g->url arg1="view=core.DownloadItem" arg2="itemId=`$image.id`" forceFullUrl=true}

Thanks for the example, h0bbel.. that shows us we should also add forceSessionId=false so you don't get any session id in the url that is shown.

{g->url arg1="view=core.DownloadItem" arg2="itemId=`$image.id`" forceFullUrl=true forceSessionId=false}

You see ... that is perfect and works perfectly! THANKYOU ... now why the hell did I have to go through all this crap to get a simple response like yours?

Excuse me? I'm sorry that I actually took the time to try and figure out how to do this for you, and trying to help you at all.

Sorry I wasn't having a go at you, I was having a go at the documentation ... I must have read it 5 times, and tried 15 different iterations, but could not figure it out. G2 is MUCH harder to use than G1 !!!
