Images displayed multiple times in gallery

[creative]

Users are allowed to enter their images into more than one category. This is causing the images to display multiple times in the users own gallery.

Is there a way to post the image to multiple categories without having the images duplicated?

If not, how do I turn off the ability for users to add their image to multiple categories. Where is this option in the admin?

Yes this is how it is designed to display as each photo is just that a new photo

HOWEVER

I believe if you make this modification you will get what you want:

In showgallery.php around line 534, find and make the change in bold:

Content visible to verified customers only.

Hi. This is the closest text I could find in showgallery.php to what you are referring:

if ( $Globals['memformat'] == "yes" ) {
$query .= "userid=$ppuser $catcheck $exclude_cat $sortcode";
}
else {
$query .= "userid=$ppuser AND cat='$cat' $exclude_cat $sortcode";
}

Is this the correct spot?

What changes do I make to this to have the images only show once in the members gallery but in each category that the user selects?

Thanks, Jen

Well it looks you have an older version of the program but yes add the code in bold

I modified the text to read:


if ( $Globals['memformat'] == "yes" ) {
$query .= "userid=$ppuser AND storecat=0 $catcheck $exclude_cat $sortcode";
}
else {
$query .= "userid=$ppuser AND storecat=0 AND cat='$cat' $exclude_cat $sortcode";
}

This did not fix the duplicate image problem. Did I enter the text correctly?

I have Photopost 4.86. Should I be upgrading? What is the current version?

[Chuck S]

5.03 is the current version and I always tell everyone to upgrade.

Is there a way to prevent images showing in multiple galleries in version 5.3?

We really like to have pics in more than one category, but do not like them to show twice when we view all images.
