Question about setup windows in CMS

[TokRa]

Hi!

I'm trying to integrate your amazing gallery script with a simple flat database CMS. The question: is it possible to display setup table for all folders without all photos to display?

Now I have in admin submenu something like this to display and edit config:

echo "<iframe src='../graphics/koschit/setup.php?admin=user' width='100%' height='1000' frameborder='0' name='info'></iframe>";

setup.php file is loading in CMS admin area with all photos from folders, and KoschtIT ask me for the password in the end ;-).

Is there any other solution, more easy to login from admin area, to configure all galleries there? How to display KoschtIT Image Gallery setup windows only, without loading all galleries into admin area?

Have you any example of good working integrations with the other CMS?

Regards

Well. Since the script is not written for integration into a CMS there is nothing like that available yet. The thing is, that the main and most important purpose of the admin panel was to find an easy way to write and change picture comments to all pictures inside the galleries. Therefore these images always need to be displayed.
But the day may come for some changes. What exactly you want to change inside your admin area? Do you only want to change the gallery parameters or do you need a full environment to upload/delete pictures, write picture comments and more ...

Hi!
I was send a PM about it, and link to download with my example of integration with CMS there. Please, have a look on it.

Hi Remigiusz,

I got your PM and just checked out RazorCMS. And it's fine. I personally don't like the idea of having a CMS. They just impose so many limits to website designs and functionallity. But if you people out there want to use it's your business.
For now I would recommend you to remove your iframe with the blade settings. Instead just add a list with links that direct to all pages of the CMS that have a gallery. Add to the hyperlink the parameter with the admin. The result would look like this:

PHP Code:

<ul>
  <li><a href="../index.php&admin=user" target="_blank">Edit gallery1</a></li>  
  <li><a href="../index.php?slab=swinoujscie&admin=user" target="_blank">Edit gallery2</a></li>
  <li><a href="../index.php?slab=garden&admin=user" target="_blank">Edit gallery3</a></li>
</ul> 


Of course this list should be generated automatically, depending on if the actual site has a gallery or not. I think you can make this on your own ...
Anyway I wish you good luck with RazorCMS. The developers should add gzip-auto-compression to all pages and make them at least valid XHTML. I still see at least one error on every page.

I'm planning to add a dedicated settings-page for you and other CMS's. Maybe already in the next script version.

Best regards,
Konstantin
