Most Recent Images - Show Member Name

[LissaE]

I've finally gotten round to upgrading my PP but noticed that while before the name of the uploader showed in the Most Recent/Most Popular/Random block on the index, now it does not... can I add it back in?

Wouldn't it figure....I found the solution right after I post LOL

For anyone else interested in this, in your template feature.tmpl on line 21

Replace:

<span class="smallfont">{$pcatname[$x]}</span>

With:

<span class="smallfont">{$ptitle[$x]}<br />{$puser[$x]}<br />{$pcatname[$x]}</span>

I use vb3 so I changed the template in the vb3enhanced folder

Yes you are free to modify your application to suit your needs although we personally do not provide assistance with code modifications.

shouldn't the name of the member who uploaded the image be standard information where we don't have to modify code to have it show up?

[Chuck S]

That depends the application is written how the developer codes it if a user wants to modify things then they can.

The majority of users do not want information showing on a photo block. It is fine if they can view things like that from the gallery view but the photo blocks the majority of users removed that over the years so the application is designed for the vast majority of user suggestions comments over the years.

PP8 series was a total redesign based off customer comments and a redesign of the look and feel.

ok, my question is then what do you mean by a photo block?
Because how our images list now, I need it to stay that way
see this link
BytePhoto - Photo Gallery and Contest Community - BytePhoto Galleries

It shows the category the image was posted and the member name posting it.
I need this info because it shows me the most recent uploads and if new members post an image in a category other than the contest category, I need to know so I can change it for them.
Otherwise, in order to figure that out, I would have to click on every image on that first page to see they posted it into the contest. Even though we post the rules and give them a quick pull down menu from the top of the page, many new members post to wrong categories.

[Chuck S]

Photo blocks are the photo blocks in the application most recent random or most popular.

You select what information shows in your category view.

[taylorpiano]

so in PP7 I select what shows in my category view, or is that just a new PP8 feature.
I don't remember seeing that option. Although I have a lot going on right now, so maybe I did set it a few years ago )

[Chuck S]

In any version since like version 5 or 6 you can select under edit categories for each category the view to be gallery ( which shows all the info ) or thumbnail, thumbnail with title or puzzle view.
