Embed HTML link in start slideshow image?

28 Oct 2012, 18:12

Hi All,

Sorry if this has been answered already but i tried searching without much luck after an hour.

I was hoping to use my start slideshow page to link to new albums in my gallery, does anyone know if this is possible?

eg. User loads my gallery, sees image and clicks taking them directly to the album.

You see what i am trying to link www.epicphotos.com.au

cheers :)

In the "parameters" field for your start folder, simply add:
Code
click=#/path-to-new/
Set the path to your folder with new images, and a click would take the visitor directly to that folder. Another idea is to simply add a link in the description:
Code
Click <a href="#/path-to-new">here</a> to view latest photos!

Yes, but that would require changing your start folder. Instead of having it as "filemod -> slideshow", you would need to change it to be a normal gallery folder, and instead apply some folder parameters to achieve a similar display mode as you currently have.

https://www.photo.gallery/documentation/folder-parameters/
Scroll down to examples -> slideshow, and basically use the example code and paste into your folder parameters for the start folder (which you have changed to be "gallery" instead of "filemod")
Code
settings.startmode=image&image.slideshow.autostart=true&thumbnails.thumbnailscroller.enabled=false&controls.largecontrols.enabled=false&controls.maincontrols.enabled=false&image.imagebuttons.enabled=false&image.closebutton.enabled=false
The above would remove the interface controls, leaving the slideshow similar to your current mode. The difference being that this is the gallery, so links when clicking the image will work. You may need to go to settings -> image.image.click, make sure its set to "link".
