You should fix your example. There is no action there.

Great job Julien, Gallery2 is pretty nice and extensible. Cooliris is also an excellent piece of software and should be used more often.

Hello again.

I finally managed to get what I wanted to with a bit more hacking in the rsshelper.class

On the function “addPhotoOrAlbum” I just needed to change :
$url = $urlGenerator->generateUrl( array('view' => 'core.DownloadItem'...
To —->
$url = $urlGenerator->generateUrl( array('view' => 'watermark.DownloadItem'....
Then on the last part of the same function I just turned
itemSettings['media'] = array( 'url' => $imageUrl...
To —->
itemSettings['media'] = array( 'url' => $url...
Now Working pefect. Hope it’ll help somebody.
Your Cooliris project is nice and very inspiring… Publish it and Keep going !

Thanks.

Julien,

You can try just doing a print_r on the $item and seeing if any of the urls present gives back the watermarked image. I’m not sure how you are getting the watermarks, is there a plugin for Gallery2 which is adding the watermarks dynamically?

Anyhow, I just finished work on a cool project using CoolIris. I’ll share with you over email.

Sorry here’s the important part of the code (well, Maybe…)

$data .= ‘ ‘ . $lf;

Hello and thanks again for the fast reply.

I’m from a small country called Andorra (between France and Spain).
I guess I need to change the following lines in the RSSGenerator.class

if (isset($this->_properties['useMedia']) && $this->_properties['useMedia']) {
if (isset($item['media'])) {
$data .= ‘ ‘ . $lf;

It seems easy but unfortunaltly i don’t know what to call to replace “media”… In fact I don’t know the name to call the “watermarked media” or “rezised media”… I might be stupid cause the url I need is called in the of my rss feed ! As you can Check here (big file): http://www.picandorra.com/rss/cooliris

I’m still searching. I’ll keep you updated when I’ll find.
Thanks

Hey Julien,

If you know how to generate the watermarked image, just edit the Rss code so that the media:content element points to the watermarked url. Currently it is pointing into your gallery directly so here is no watermark when viewing the larger image. If you have other sizes, you can point there as well.

Where are you from?

Hey, Thanks for the reply.

Sorry for my bad english, hope I’ll be clearer… There is no problem with the thumnails. I’ve followed your tip and it’s actually working perfect. Thanks again ! (http://www.picandorra.com -now online).

The problem is once you select a thumbnail inside cooliris… The big image that appear is just the original one. I’d love to see a rezised image instead of the original one… or at least the original WITH watermark cause as you can see the cooliris actually display “natural original image”.

All image are currently watermarked in the website, I need that the RSS media link show those images instead of the original one. If you have a clue ?? Thanks a lot.
