The filenames of files to be 'zipped' would relate directly to the Links IDs contained within the Category/sub category or the search results. ie: Link ID 300, filename 300.jpg and so on. Therefore category 'hotels' would contain 20 links with 20 files and the generated zip file would contain the 20 files and be downloaded immediately. Because the site is dynamic, there may be 22 links 10 minutes later and then the zip file would contain all 22 files. Similar with search results. 7170307075fc6bfa7a3216ef048ca1f4 May 20, 2013, 2:55 AM http://www.gossamer-threads.com/forum/Products_C9/Gossamer_Links_C5/Development%2C_Plugins_and_Globals_F20/Re%3A_%5BAlba%5D_Creating_a_dynamic_zip_file_P314988/?page=unread#314988 Hi, You wanna create a ZIP file, based on a selection of files? Normally you would move them into a temp folder, then do a zip file from it: Code: zip files.zip * Then you would either do a "location" redirect to this new file (and remove it after say 10 mins) ... or actually get the script to print out the contents itself (this means you can actually remove the file right after its been downloaded) Cheers Andy (mod) andy@ultranerds.co.uk ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Want to give me something back for my help?

I have a sort by dropdown on the page and it would be ideal to have this work through the url. They can sort by the title and others. Is this possible? 04433dd9d540aff2576842a78e22025d May 16, 2013, 1:22 PM http://www.gossamer-threads.com/forum/Products_C9/Gossamer_Links_C5/Development%2C_Plugins_and_Globals_F20/Re%3A_%5Bpatricktarget%5D_Sort_By_Functionality_P314980/?page=unread#314980 Hi, 1) Using sb in category pages won't work. You need to update the category sort order defined in Setup > Build Options . sb is only effeective for things like review.cgi / search.cgi 2) As Tandat said, this is used by the rate.cgi system. I would leave that alone. Just add a new one called "ReviewRating" or something (as a FLOAT)...then make a script to simply go through each link and get the average rating nightly: Code: #!/usr/local/bin/perl use strict; use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser); use lib '/path/to/admin'; use Links qw/$PLG $IN $DB/; local $SIG{__DIE__} = \&Links::fatal; Links::init('/path/to/admin'); my $Reviews = $DB->table("Reviews"); my $Links = $DB->table("Links"); my $sth = $Links->select( ['ID'], { isValidated => "Yes" } ); while (my $id = $sth->fetchrow) { $Links->update( { ReviewRating => $Reviews->select( ['AVG(Review_Rating)'], { Review_LinkID => $id } )->fetchrow }, { ID => $id }) || die $GT::SQL::error; } Untested, but should work =) Cheers Andy (mod) andy@ultranerds.co.uk ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Want to give me something back for my help?

For 2), the Rating is used for link, at least in rate.cgi. So, can add another field for your purpose. Hope that helps!

I have a couple of more questions... 1. For some reason, when I add the &sb=Title or &sb=Title DESC to the url for the category pages on glinks, it doesn't sort the items as it should. Is there something that I am missing? 2. Related to my previous question, I noticed a field called Rating in the database table. Is there any functionality that uses that field for the data? I was thinking of making it so that it would update the rating number every time a new review has been approved and then just sort by that field. Thanks! 089b29e0501f388b27dd7c705a745ddb May 14, 2013, 1:33 PM http://www.gossamer-threads.com/forum/Products_C9/Gossamer_Links_C5/Development%2C_Plugins_and_Globals_F20/Re%3A_%5Bpatricktarget%5D_Sort_By_Functionality_P314977/?page=unread#314977 Hi, No problem. The simplest way to sort by an average review score, is to have a script run once a night that goes through each link, gets the average rating... and then stores it in the Links table. That way you can just sort by it. Cheers Andy (mod) andy@ultranerds.co.uk ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Want to give me something back for my help?

I wanted to include the average review for the link as part of the sorting capabilities. Since the current system uses the sb function by sorting with the field name in the db, it makes it hard to sort by the average review, which is all stored in a separate table. Is there a way to get the average review sort by functionality to work? a479777b7612253c956d84461d8fac6b May 13, 2013, 10:04 AM
