Hi there,

i trying to mod the x_treme theme so that the slideshow icon link at photo level opens a simple viewer slide show.

simple viewer is setup and working, and i can locatet where to update the url in the for the nav icons the only problem im having is calling the item ID as the item i need to call is the parent of the item i am viewing....

the link needs to go /main.php/show/*parentID however i can't find the right call to populate the item ID needed, e.g. the item i am viewings parent.

any tips would be greatly recieved.

many thanks

James

{if $theme.pageType == 'album'}
    {$theme.item.id}
{elseif $theme.pageType == 'photo'}
    {$theme.parent.id}
{/if}
