Hello everyone. {g->block type="imageblock.ImageBlock" blocks="randomImage" maxSize="500" showDate=0 showOwner=0 showViews=0 showTitle=0 showHeading=0 useDefaults=0} i was able to put a random image in the main page. Is it possible to specify which album those random images should be from? <?php @readfile('http://www.lucasmarin.com/gallery2/main.php?g2_view=imageblock.External&g2_blocks=randomImage&g2_itemId=733'); ?> that g2_itemId is the album i want to show the images from... any help? Thank you very much! |

I'd assume you could simply add itemId=xx
but you can also use mediaBlock.

g2_ is the (default) prefix added to parameters in urls. A prefix may be needed there if, for example, G2 is in embedded mode and the url is an extension of a url which already has parameters intended for another web application. For instance itemId=xxxx in the url could be intended for a CMS system to display a particular page, in which a G2 image was embedded, so ensuring that Gallery2 uses g2_itemId in that context avoids a conflict.
Within a smarty template the parameter is simply itemId=... - there's no conflict and no prefices are used.
