Hi, I'm having a hard time figuring out how to link to an album's main page. Let me explain.

My structure is: "Gallery > Album X > Sub-album X"

When viewing an image in the sub-album, I can easily link to "Sub-album X" by using: ""

What I need is to be able to link to "Album X" while being able to control what the link says. I am aware that it's possible to link to "Album X" using "", but that prints the album's name as the link.

Been searching like a mad man, any help?

Cheers!

*Edit: Just noticed I posted in the wrong forum. Soz about that.

You get the parent album object by using $_zp_current_album->getParent() (if in an album and one exists). See the object model tutorial and the functions documentation on our user guide.

That might as well be in Latin. That's over my head.

No easy way to magically do a "printAlbumLinkDammit", or something?

Yes, but not for the parent album which you have to get first.
It is not really hard:
$parent = $_zp_current_album->getParent() $parentlink = $parent->getAlbumLink();
Now build your link with that.

Awesome. Thank you!

In case someone else is looking for this:

Link text

Just had a facepalm moment; this simple method also works in this case:

Link text

Only if you have modrewrite enabled as the url is not a real folder path and probably not from an image page. The way above is the way to do it.

Yeah, works with pretty URLs only, should have mentioned that.
