Display the x last pics from an album

@gastont – Your reference is for our <img> tag placeholder, it is not modifiable (or it will break). You will most likely need to use a shortcode and some sorting options to get to what you are looking to accomplish.

Can you provide any more detailed specifics to work with?

Thanks for your answer.

I’m idiot, I didnt’t saw that was a <img> tag !

Well, I have 2 albums : Album 1(id=1) and Album 2 (id=2).
I want to display the 8 most recent pics from album 1 in a <div> and the 4 most recent pics from album 2 in another <div>.

Both <div> are in the same page.

I work with the 2.0.79 version.

@gastont – Albums contain galleries, and galleries contain images … which specific images are you trying to display?

Are you wanting to choose images from all of the galleries within the album, or from one specific gallery in each album?

– Cais.

I’m trying to display the 8 most recent images from galerie 1 and galerie 2 (both in album 1) in a <div> and the 4 most recent images from galerie 3 (in album 2) in another <div>.

Thanks a lot !

@gastont – Based on that description we do not have a method to display limited images from specific galleries when accessing them via an album. If you were to insert the individual galleries then you could most likely use a shortcode to create this “limited” rendering of images.

For example:
[ngg_images gallery_ids=1 display_type=photocrati-nextgen_basic_thumbnails disable_pagination=1 images_per_page=8 order_by=imagedate order_direction=DESC]

Thanks!

Thank you very much for your time, I will doing my stuff with that.
Maybe in a future version we’ll be able to display an album ?! ??

Thanks for your Next Gen gallery, It’s awesome !

@gastont – We are looking at new options and display types for future releases with the possibilities for something like what you are looking to do could be possible.

Thanks!
