You are correct...to show the full post in the category, you just need the template tag: the_content(); I don't think you need to use echo.</p> <p>The galleries are looking good!</p> <p>Cheers,<br /> Byron </p> http://smashly.net/community/topic/view-galleries-in-excerpts#post-778 Tue, 23 Feb 2010 19:39:43 +0000 dpouliot 778@http://smashly.net/community/ <p>Well, quite by accident I figured out how to do this!</p> <p>Since I'm new to WordPress I'm not always certain of ways that templates can be edited. I merely echo the_content() in category.php instead of excerpt, and it works like a charm!</p> <p>It's not entirely finished, but you can see here:</p> <p><a href="http://www.omansion.com/community/posts/category/weddings_and_parties/" rel="nofollow">http://www.omansion.com/community/posts/category/weddings_and_parties/</a></p> <p>Your comment gave me the nudge I needed to figure this out on my own. Thanks! </p> http://smashly.net/community/topic/view-galleries-in-excerpts#post-777 Tue, 23 Feb 2010 15:24:58 +0000 dpouliot 777@http://smashly.net/community/ <p>well, that's good and bad news. The goal was to allow different people to post "comments" and have galleries for their own comments. So imagine looking at a page full of comments and seeing different galleries in different comments. I understand your product is not intended for comments, so I was going to fake it by allowing the general public to create posts then view them as a list on a Category page, using the excerpt field to display the content of each post and its associated gallery. If excerpts don't parse shortcode then it sounds like I'm SOL, yes? </p> http://smashly.net/community/topic/view-galleries-in-excerpts#post-775 Tue, 23 Feb 2010 05:03:46 +0000 byron 775@http://smashly.net/community/ <p>Dan,</p> <p>PhotoSmash supports multiple galleries per page. The trick is that you have to supply the gallery IDs if you're doing more than one in a post or a page...like:</p> <p>[photosmash id=5]<br /> [photosmash id=8]</p> <p>That would show galleries 5 and 8 right after each other.</p> <p>I don't think that Excerpts do shortcodes, but hopefully you can just use the regular post/page to get your multiple galleries.</p> <p>One thing that is coming to PhotoSmash Extend is to allow creating Gallery Viewer pages, which would give an index of your galleries, and clicking a gallery would show the selected gallery...but that's a bit down the road.</p> <p>Hope that helps,<br /> Byron </p> http://smashly.net/community/topic/view-galleries-in-excerpts#post-774 Mon, 22 Feb 2010 22:17:42 +0000 dpouliot 774@http://smashly.net/community/ <p>I'd really love to allow multiple galleries per page. I was thinking that I would accomplish this by visiting a category page which shows excerpts from posts. I put the [photosmash] code in the excerpt, but alas it did not parse. Is there a way for me to accomplish this? Thanks! Dan </p>
