add item on the bottom level photo page in addition to the album level.

Hi,
Please see www.projectflag.net
you may login with user: rozov pass: flag38
click on the usa flag. as you can see ive setup the album to go directly to the photopage as i have microthumbs navigation. if you click on 'usa' on the breadcrumb you will get the album level which enalbles you to add item to the album. since most of my users will go directly to the photo page id like them to be able to add another photo to the album from that page. can someone help?

Thanks Nivekiam.
I think I didnt make myself understood..
'Item actions' allows to manipulate items that already exist. inside that block there is no option for adding a new item.

i would like to have a menu option which i do have at the album level - the option of adding an item to the parent album when im viewing a full size photo.. As many times my users will skip the intermediate album view (where you see thumbnails of all the photos in the album) and go directly from clicking on the album's thumbnail to the 1st photo of the album.

see www.projectflag.net
you may login using name: rozov pass: flag38
click on the USA album (just that one..). to see the album thumbnails backup by clicking on the USA in the breadcrumb.

thanks for your help! Yasha.

Thanks for this nivekiam,
Im having some trouble. Ive tried to paste the code into at least three places in the photo.tpl template. not getting any results...(ive put it into the local folder)

also, optimally id like the "add photo" to show up in the same place the "add item" shows up at the album level. i assume this is the navigatorTop.tpl - so code-wise i guess we would have to create an instance where gallery determines whether we are at the album level or the photo level and uses the relevant script? Again, it works perfect at the album level (USA) if you login using details in the post above. thanks a bunch, Yasha.

Here's another way of doing it that doesn't involve any mucking around with templates at all. Put this code in a file called module.inc inside a new directory called 'extraadditem' in the /modules folder, then install it from the plugins page (it will appear at the bottom.)

<?php 
class ExtraAddItemModule extends GalleryModule {

    function ExtraAddItemModule() {
	$this->setId('extraadditem');
	$this->setName('extraadditem');
	$this->setDescription('Add add-item link to photos');
	$this->setVersion('0.1.0');
	$this->setCallbacks('getItemLinks');
	$this->setRequiredCoreApi(array(7, 4));
	$this->setRequiredModuleApi(array(3, 0));
    }

   function getItemLinks($items, $wantsDetailedLinks, $permissions) {
	
	GalleryCoreApi::requireOnce('modules/core/module.inc');
	$core = new CoreModule;
	$links = array();
	foreach ($items as $item) {
	    $itemId = $item->getId();
	    if ($item->getCanContainChildren() || !isset($wantsDetailedLinks[$itemId])) {
		continue;
	    }
    	    $parentId = $item->getParentId();
    	    if (!GalleryCoreApi::hasItemPermission($parentId, 'core.addDataItem')) {
	    	continue;
    	    }
    
	    $links[$itemId][] = array('text' => $core->translate('Add Items'),
			  'params' => array('view' => 'core.ItemAdmin',
					    'subView' => 'core.ItemAdd',
					    'itemId' => $parentId,
					    'return' => 1));
	}
	return array(null, $links);
    }
}
?>

You'd better check that the permissions checks are quite correct, too.

EDIT: uses core translation of 'Add Items' now.
EDIT #2: no need actually to fetch the parent.

Anything is possible, but if X_treme theme has everything you want, then I'd probably stick with it. Note any and all of the changes you make so that you can re-apply them if a new version of the theme is released or a new version of gallery is released that makes the theme incompatible, forcing you to upgrade.

Thanks Alec.

@ Alec: your option seems to work (I get at least the option of adding pictures at the boottom of the screen. However when logged in as Admin, I get the following message:

Security Violation

The action you attempted is not permitted. 

Any idea what can be wrong?

Since that worked for someone else, I can only think that either there is a problem with the file you uploaded from copying and pasting that code of Alec's, or that there is some incompatibility with that code and 2.2.4. Maybe try upgrading to 2.2.6, though the differences should really only be bug and security fixes and not changes to the API.

Maybe, try the option I posted above: http://gallery.menalto.com/node/81487#comment-285734

I just tried my modification on my gallery and it worked. Maybe there was a mistake when copying and pasting or maybe it had to do with your text editor? Can you post your photo.tpl file? You might need to rename it to photo.txt.

On line 85 you have
{g- >text

NOTE the space between g- > there should be no space at all there.

{g->text

Since we're dinking around with templates. First clear the template cache, Site Admin > Maintenance > Clear Template Cache and see if that works. If not, try the attached file, don't edit it, don't open it and save it, just rename it to photo.tpl and upload that.

Well I didn't suggest this earlier because I couldn't see what would possibly be different between 2.2.4 and 2.2.6, but you should upgrade anyway to get the security fixes.

Can you also post a link to your site? I'll see if I can find anything from poking around and ask for more info if needed.

Yes, can you create a temporary use that has site admin access and send that in private? I've poked around as much as I can, trying your template changes (the ones I can find) on my gallery and everything works for me.

Hmm..strange, but glad you found at least a lead to the problem. I'm in Europe, so it's 21.30PM now in the evening. No problem for me if you poke around now, although I hope that I still have a working G2-install tomorrow-morning... ))

As mentioned earlier, G2 is updated to the most recent version, and in Debug Mode at this very moment.

Good luck!

PS. It must've worked for me in the past on my Gallery install because I must not have cleared my template cache.

A few minutes later: Yep, this works very good now! LowerCase is BigDifference!

Many thanks for your time on behalf of everyone of my photoclub for having now an easy to accomplish upload-feature. Great!!!
