Hi guys,

I'm trying to display the album tile (title, thumb, description etc.) of 3 particular albums within another page of my website outside of the zenphoto directory.

I've viewed the help page on using Zenphoto as a "plug-in", and it seems to make sense but I can't think of what bit of code I need to specify which albums I want to appear.

I'm using the excellent zpGalleriffic theme.

Here is the code (modifyied a little to fit in with may website theme) on the gallery.php page which displays the album tiles:

`

         0) ) { ?>class="withsidebar">
            [list]

You need to setup the right context using the object model to use these. Recommended read:

This might also be of help:

Thanks for those articles, I'm still learning so I hope you can have a little patience with me.

So far I've managed to get all the album tiles to appear on my external page but haven't been able to single out the ones I want yet.

I have inserted; ``
...into the header of the page, but I get the following error:
"Notice: Bad gallery in instantiation of album photography-world. in \zp-core\class-album.php on line 48"

I tried to change getAlbumLinkURL() into $albumobject->getAlbumLinkURL() etc. too in the code I posted in the original post but that caused a fatal error.
Obviously I'm doing something wrong but I can't figure out what.

I can't work out how the makeAlbumCurrent fits into it either.

I really don't want to take up any of your time but I do appriciate any guidance you can give!

Well, you did not setup the gallery object. Please re-read and understand:
