Thanks, but still getting an unauthorized error that way too. I can include the page like this by putting it in the same directory as sidebar.php

but if I try to add a queryString then it gives me errors.

Thanks.

Try this:

include('http://yoursite/wp-gallery2.php? g2_view=albumselect.Navigation');

What is the workaround using include, I tried the curl hack mentioned above and that also gave me an unauthorized error.

Good stuff! I like the idea of creating a page from RSS feeds. I’ll probably do the same and incorporate feeds from my dev site to my main website. Thanks for sharing!

By the way, you have lots of great photos! You might want to consider incorporating a combined blog/photo search. I’ve made such a plugin: http://dev.cal-family.org/plugins/wpg2-search-block/

Just a note to say I’ve made a couple of minor tweaks to fSpring to make it fit my needs better - random image rotator for the banner; highlight for the most recent post, a list of recent posts, and the addition of Google ads (probably in places no-one will look :().

Anyone interested can see it at http://www.timandmarina.com - one other possibly interesting aspect of the site is that I’ve added pages created from RSS feeds (from other sites I maintain) using the inlineRSS plugin.

Thanks again for giving me a great start and for help along the way!

That’s great!

A bit too late now but you probably also could’ve tried include() or require() instead of @readfile.

I finally solved it. I didn’t realize the “@” in the @readfile command was to supress errors. When I eliminated it, the error messages told me that php readfile url access was disallowed on my server. As I can’t easily change that (requires a custom compile of PHP), I used the curl-based hack I found at http://gallery.menalto.com/node/29268.

So I think my wpg2 is now fully functional!

I think I have - I’ve installed g2albumnavigation in Gallery 2 (published 31/7/06). I’ve tried with and without steps 2 and 3 (as I only want the dynamic tree).

I’m using the wpg2 form of the @readfile call in my sidebar.

I’m using the Siriux theme in Gallery, and when I get an embedded gallery page, the dynamic tree is visible at the bottom of the gallery page (not in the sidebar).

I’ve racked my (limited) brains, but no idea yet why the sidebar remains tree-free.

Hi Tim,

Are you trying to display the Gallery albumselect tree on your Wordpress sidebar? If yes, have you installed the mod I posted over at the Gallery Embedded forums?
