Total number of images for a user?

[mmccann]

How do I determine the total number of images that a user has uploaded? I would like to keep a running count and add that to the user's profile page.

Thanks!

That's actually part of the pro version. You'd need to run a query, taking moderation into account, but not wanting to give away the pro stuff, that's all I can say. ;)

Bummer, I guess I'll to wait like everyone else. Any idea of what the price will be to upgrade to Pro?

[mmccann]

If we can't get a number, is there a function that returns if a user has uploaded images or not.

For example, I want to display a camera icon on the user's profile page ONLY if they have images in Photoplog.

Can that be done with Lite?

Thanks

Yep, can be done. In the MEMBERINFO template, use:
Content visible to registered users only.
That'll give you a camera if there are images, just not a count.

Here is what I use to display the camera icon in postbit:

<a href="http://www.MY-DOMAIN.com/forums/photoplog/index.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]"><img src="images/misc/photo_icon.gif" alt="Gallery"></a>

If I wrap the "if" statement around it, it no longer works.

<if condition="$photoplog_memberinfo"><a href="http://www.MY-DOMAIN.com/forums/photoplog/index.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]"><img src="images/misc/photo_icon.gif" alt="Gallery"></a></if>

Does postbit require something different from MEMBERINFO?

Thanks

[Morgan]

Yes, postbit won't work like MEMBERINFO in PhotoPlog Lite, as there is no variable available to use in a similar template conditional statement, so you can either display, or not display, the camera when using PhotoPlog Lite.

Thanks again for the help! Yet another good reason to upgrade when "Pro" comes out. :D

[Morgan]

LOL, changed my mind, postbit counts are now possible with PhotoPlog Lite v.1.0.8. :)

[mmccann]

I will definately upgrade! How do you use the new feature? :confused:

As before, I would like to display a camera icon when the users has uploaded images (and possibly display the count as well).

Thanks!

The Lite v.1.0.8 README.txt file has instructions in the comments section. ;)

[mmccann]

Thanks, that worked great! And I thought the README was just for install info ;)

Thanks for all your help and a great product!
