new PP installation/customer: some questions, need help
 

1. I need to display couple of random images with stats (stats not that important but would be great) on pages outside /photopost/ directory... See attached image for a visual. (this is coppermine and using the ssi mod. anything related to that from pp?)

2. Even though, I have Show UBBCode on Photo page? to YES, it still doesn't show ubbcode/bbcod on the photo page?

3. featured photos on the vB index page. I have gone through almost all of the posts here and how everyone is having "path" issues. I checked, rechecked and check again but whenever I include the featured photo files, i get 3-6 lines of error... sometimes they are directory not found and sometimes the mysql errors.

4. I would like to show medium pictures to guests and users not logged in.. but to view full/large images the guests/users must log in or register. I know, there is setting to show thumbs only and then they would have to register to view medium and full.

thanks in advance for help!

Are "custom PALs" only available IF sidebar is ON? :eek:

1. Use the inc_features.php script

2. UBBCode should show if it is turned on as it does her on this site and mine and many others I see. If it doesnt open a support thread on it for us to look into

3. Follow the instructions. If you get mysql errors then most likely your products are in separate databases and you need to properly edit the files to link and select the proper databases

Yes sidebar has to be on for custompals to show. You could add the includes to the undercat template if you really want them to show in the undercat template

1. Doesn't inc_features.php show a "block" and not 2 or 3 thumbnails?

2. I have submitted a support thread.

custompals, how do I do this? I tried doing this:

if ( $Globals['custom1pal'] == "yes" ) {
include( "{$Globals['PP_PATH']}/{$Globals['TMPL_PATH']}/custom1pal.tmpl" );
}

and set custom pal 1 to YES in sidebar options but nothing.

thanks!

1. Yes inc_features shows a thumb block how many you want in a row or column

2. okay

3. Yes thats how you do it just take the code from the sidebar_open and place it in undercat or undercat_sidebar
