Photo Printing
 

I'm considering turning this on, but want to make sure everyone that has already uploaded a photo has the option to set it to no.

How can I set all of the exisiting photos to not allow printing?

Thanks

printing isnt enabled yet

Hmm, I have a print link:

http://www.powwows.com/galleries/sho....php?photo=779

We left the code in place expecting that the photo printing service we had an agreement in place with would be ready shortly. We've just been told that this is unlikely and, unfortuantely, we will probably have to look at alternatives. The good news is the system in place provides a good framework for a "cart" feature, we just need to decide what to do with that cart once its built.

So how can I turn that link off? Lots of our photos are sensitive. People want to show them, but not have them printed.

Thanks

Its in the admin options

I have that turned off, but there is still a link for Print View?

Print View is not the same as Order Prints (although I can see how it can be confusing).

Print View is just a popup that can be used by a user to print a photo and is not realted to the Order Prints option (purchase photos).

Print view just pops up a window that ONLY contains the picture - nothing else. Makes it easier to for people to simply press print.

You could remove that from the template - but that still wouldnt prevent people from printing pictures..

Thanks

What template is that in?

It's just a popup window that doesnt use a template.

The link, not the popup.

It's not in a template, it's in showphoto.php

Search for printview in that file and remove or comment out the link where it appears.

Hi,

I tried to remove print view from my solution, however I could not find it in showphoto.php as you suggested (I have 5.11, vB-enhanced) I found a routine where in showphoto.php does display customboxes but they get defined elsewhere, ... which file do we remove print view? :-)

Assuming you're running the latest version of Photopost (5.11), locate the following code block in showphoto.php:

Then just delete the <a href= ...></a> segment of the code, or comment it out.

If you're running an earlier version of Photopost, the code should be similar so just locate and remove the link where it appears.

hey wild texas ... I don't know what I was thinking .. I was trying to find it in the template :-) ... not the .php file (I looked through all the teamplate files and just could not find printview).

Thanks a million to you and for helping me out - now it's implemented.

Start using a good text editor with an advanced search (and replace is always nice) functionality. Homesite is what I use, but that's just from years and years of preference (been using it since long before it was even owned by Allaire, much less Macromedia).

Then when things like this come up, you just point your handy dandy text editor to look through ALL your Photopost files (templates, php, config, css, everything) for a variable or string or whatever and it will do the work for you. No need to kill minutes, much less hours, doing it by hand.

Been there, done that, and it ain't no fun! ;)

For more assistance, hang out over on photopostdev.com, where edits to code like this are welcome. This site's more for the day-to-day issues of Photopost -- installation, upgrades, bug reports, rather than customization/aka/code hacks.

ah, got it, slowly I am finding my way around these two sites, thanks for pointing me in write directions ... I hope someday I can do the same for some newbee like me :-) but that time is far from now ... :-)
