Menu link to display all users media

Hello

We would like to build a page displaying all users media that are public, whether it is pictures or videos.

What would be the best solution for this ? an auto action ?

Thanks

Media from where? If CB Gallery simply create a Joomla menu item to CB Gallery plugin and set the Asset parameter to "all" for all CB Gallery entries. If you specifically only want profile gallery entries you can use the profile.% asset. I assume by public you mean via CB Privacy, which should still be respected when outputting all gallery entries like that.

Yes that's it, only gallery items defined as public by privacy plugin to start with. I'll try with the gallery plugin menu.

Next we would like any registered user to be able to select an item shown by this menu and have this item display on its own profile.

I was thinking of a new cb field in which the chosen asset number would be selected. Is it possible to do ?

Can we build a button like the like button which would set the item reference to the cb field ? Could we do it by auto action?

I'd be glad to have your ideas

Entries do not have an Asset unique per entry. So you can't just add 1 media entry from 1 gallery to another without flat out copying it. So the only way to do that would be to take the gallery entry they want displayed on their profile, make a copy of it, and change its asset to match their profile. I guess the best way to go about doing that is a Query auto action and just directly makes a copy using an INSERT SELECT query and modify the asset in the SELECT. As for adding the button you'd have to use a Code action to output the HTML; see the like system action for example on how to render the button in the modal window.

Could we buy a support ticket and ask you to write all this for us ?

No, we do not provide such a service. The below example should get you started.


The above should make a copy of someone elses media to your profile gallery based off the ID of the media, which you'd need to supply to MEDIA_ID_HERE.
