OK, I have tried to get the Random image block going, but I get this error:

============
Warning: fopen("/block-random.cache", "w") - Permission denied in /usr/www/users/africd/jeremynell.com/modules/gallery/platform/fs_unix.php on line 55

Warning: Unable to open '/usr/www/users/africd/jeremynell.com/albums/jeremysworld/unknown.thumb.jpg' for reading: No such file or directory in /usr/www/users/africd/jeremynell.com/modules/gallery/platform/fs_unix.php on line 26

ah yes, make sure your album directory is read/writable by webserver (chmod 666 should do it). i think this has been addressed here before, try searching the forums.

this is the whole block file:

=============
if (eregi("block-NG-AlbumList.php",$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'])) {
Header("Location: index.php");
die();
}

$GALLERY_BASEDIR = "/usr/www/users/africd/jeremynell.com/modules/gallery/";
define(ALBUM_BASEADDR, "http://jeremynell.com/albums/");
define(SERVER_ADDR, "http://jeremynell.com/");
require_once($GALLERY_BASEDIR . "init.php");
require_once($GALLERY_BASEDIR . "random_support.php");

define(CACHE_FILE, $gallery->app->albumDir . "/block-random.cache");
define(CACHE_EXPIRED, 86400);

/* VALID VALUES FOR $selector:
* "DAILY"
* "HOURLY"
* "RANDOM"
*/

$selector = "HOURLY";

if($selector=="DAILY"){
$content = daily_photo();
}
else if ($selector=="HOURLY"){
$content = hourly_photo();
}
else if ($selector=="RANDOM"){
list($album, $index) = get_random_photo_id();
$content = random_photo($album, $index,0);
}
?>

ok, it works now.

How do I remove the text underneath the thumbnail?

remove these lines from random-support.php:

Code: ›
$content .= " <center>From: <a href=\"".$albumURL."\">".$album->fields["title"]."</a></center>";

$content .= " <center>From: <a href=\"".$line[1]."\">".$line[2]."</a></center>";

$content .= " <center>From: <a href=\"".$albumURL."\">".$album->fields["title"]."</a></center>";

$content .= " <center>From: <a href=\"".$albumURL."\">".$album->fields["title"]."</a></center>";

$content .= " <center>From: <a href=\"".$line[1]."\">".$line[2]."</a></center>";

$content .= " <center>From: <a href=\"".$albumURL."\">".$album->fields["title"]."</a></center>";

$caption = $album->getCaption($index);
if ($caption) {
$content.=" <center>".$caption."</center>";
}
$content .= " <center>From: <a href=\"".$albumURL."\">".$album->fields["title"]."</a></center>";
