User Albums - slight problem

Dauthus · Novice Joined: May 28, 2003 Posts: 22

I have installed the User Albums module for Gallery2. The only problem I have is when the module creates the album it uses the user's real name, not their Username. For example, instead of naming my album Dauthus, it names it David Taylor, my real name. The same with the other users. Any way to fix this so it creates the album with the Username?

this is a good point, i'll raise it with the devs, though i think it's intentional...

I've been told it's intentional.

Ok, so how do I make it unintentional? In other words, create the album with the Username instead? The directory is created using the username, just not the album name.

So..
here is the answer Dmolavi, right from #gallery (if You would wait some more secs..) Wink

look for
/modules/useralbum/classes/UserAlbumHelper.class

search and change this:

Code: ›
/* Create album.. */
$albumTitle = trim($user->getFullName());
if (empty($albumTitle)) {
$albumTitle = $user->getUserName();
}

into this:

Code: ›
/* Create album.. */
$albumTitle = trim($user->getUserName());
if (empty($albumTitle)) {
$albumTitle = $user->getUserName();
}

NOT tested! (but it should do the trick.. Smile

Have fun

Thanks joe7. I have made the code changes and will let you know how this works.

I don't understand this though:

Was that directed to me? If it was, I don't understand what exactly you are saying.

heh..no, that was to me...i'm a moderator in the #gallery IRC channel. but, since i have a rather hectic "real life" (new baby on the way in 4 weeks), i can't hang out there as often as i'd like, and when i'm in there, i sometimes have to make unannounced departures Smile

thanks Joe7 Smile
