Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ECHO in /home/da_mja_nac/public_html/da_mja_nci/zen/zp-core/random.php on line 36

.alb files are dynamic albums and therefor within the albums folders like normal albums.

Sorry, I can't help with that random addon as I did not write it. Try to contact its developer or maybe he will still visit this forum.

The bad album instantiation problem is fixed now. Just as a note, this error message is part of the development builds. It is intended to help us find places where the zenphoto code is not correctly passing a gallery object. If you get the error, it would help us if you change the DEBUG_ERROR define to true as it will give details on where the bad instantiation occurred.

Ok, you are using zenphoto functions outside of the zenphoto gallery, aren't you? The varialbe $_zp_gallery is not set. You may run into any number of these. I suggest you include the following code in your script:
$_zp_gallery = new Gallery();
before you call any functions.

We will try to make a general solution to this as well.

I looked at the tickets listed above:

http://www.zenphoto.org/documentation-official/zenphoto/_template-functions.php.html#functiongetRandomImages
http://www.zenphoto.org/documentation-official/zenphoto/_template-functions.php.html#functiongetRandomImagesAlbum

Both have no info.

How can I display a random image IN zp? Also would like to replace code in gallery.php that currently shows thumbs of all my albums so that it instead shows the above selected random image.
