Hello,

I have spent all day trying to study how to creat a module, getting there slowly I think. I have follow the guide at http://codex.gallery2.org/Gallery2:Module_Development_Tutorial.

I have my module almost working. The only bit I can't figure out is how to load the images of a particular album rather than the default which is given in the tutorial.

Quote:
list ($ret, $albumId) = GalleryCoreApi::getDefaultAlbumId();
if ($ret) {
return array($ret, null);
}

list ($ret, $album) = GalleryCoreApi::loadEntitiesById($albumId);
if ($ret) {
return array($ret, null);
}

is obviously what is producing the default album ID. How would I change this so that it inserts the id from the ablum in the url (ie. /gallery2/main.php?g2_view=polaroid.Polaroid&g2_itemId=2884)

Thanks for any assistance!!
