Hey,

I have the xcgal meta albums block set up on my homepage displaying 2 columns and 2 rows, I would like to display the album title underneath each picture in the block.

I have already tried several things but nothing seems to work. I have tried adding <{$album_title}> and <{$alb.title}>into the template but these do not work I have also tried:

but this does not work either, finally I tried inserting
into xcgal_blocks.php and then putting <{$album_title}> in the template but I got a blank page, I am not sure if I have put this line of code inot xcgal_blocks.php in the correct place I added it underneath these 2 lines:


If someone could point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated.

Cheers.

Well, I've been looking through some of the xcgal files to try and figure something out for this but alas I have had no luck, my knowledge of PHP is practically zilch ( i have been trying to learn for 2 weeks now) but what i can figure out is:

$album_title is a variable (i think) I am guessing &alb.title and $album_name are also variables, other templates such as the xcgal_display.html uses <{$album_name}> to display the album title and xcgal_index.html uses <{$alb.title}> to display the album name.

My question is how can I get the block template to display the album title if I insert the smarty code <$album_title}> or <{$alb.title}>?

Im not looking for the complete answer just nudged in the right direction I would rather I had a learning experience than have the answer handed on a plate and learn nothing.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Martin
