Displaying title and user on shortcode pages

    Greetings,

    I would like the title and the user name (with link on user) to appear under the thumbnail of media or gallery on pages I create with shortcode.

    I have been able to get the name and media to appear on media pages, but not on pages that contain galleries.

    This is the code I added to functions.php file:

    add_action( ‘mpp_after_media_shortcode_item’, ‘mpp_media_title’ );
    add_action( ‘mpp_after_media_shortcode_item’, ‘mpp_custom_add_user_link’ );
    function mpp_custom_add_user_link() {
    //you may put some conditions here like

    //mpp_is_single_gallery();
    //mpp_is_single_media();
    //to avoid showing it on single gallery/media pages

    $user_id = mpp_get_media_creator_id();
    $link = sprintf( “%s“, bp_core_get_user_domain( $user_id ), bp_core_get_username( $user_id ) );
    echo $link;
    }

    add_action( ‘mpp_after_gallery_shortcode_entry’, ‘mpp_custom_add_user_link’ );

    Nothing changes on my gallery grid page. On my page with media grid where previously only the thumbnail showed up, I now get the title of the media and next to it the user_id with no space between the two. I would like the user name to appear below the title. And I would prefer the user name over the user id.

    Thanks,
    Xochi

    Hi Xochi,
    I am sorry for the inconvenience. which shortcode are you using ?

    is it

    [mpp-show-gallery] or is it
    [mpp-list-media]

    They use different templates, so the hooks are a little bit different. Also, The first should show the title automatically.

    Thank you
    Brajesh

    Hi Brajesh

    This is the shortcode for galleries:

    [mpp-list-gallery type=audio]

    And this is the shortcode individual files in a gallery:

    [mpp-show-gallery id=380]

    This second one here I believe is the one you said titles should so up for. They did not until I added this to my functions.php file:

    add_action( ‘mpp_after_media_shortcode_item’, ‘mpp_media_title’ );

    Thanks,
    Xochi

    Hi Xochi,

    Thank you

    The fist displays the gallery title without any issue.

    The second had an issue. It was not loading the correct template. I have fixed it now on our development repo
    https://github.com/buddydev/mediapress/commit/1822fc6a598520e784935d2c9e9816296b438698

    Will push to wprog in next 2-3 days(this weekend, by Sunday).

    Thank you
    Brajesh

    Hi Brajesh,
    Thank you. Will this also solve the problem of adding the user name in the manner I inquired of originally?
    Thanks,
    Xochi

    Hi Brajesh,
    I still have my original question at the beginning of this thread of how to get the user name to display below a gallery when creating a page using shortcodes.

    Hi,
    Please use the code from here

    
    
    /**
     * Display the name of the creator of the gallery below gallery cover
     *
     */
    function mpp_custom_display_gallery_owner_name() {
    	$gallery = mpp_get_gallery();
    	if ( ! $gallery ) {
    		return ;
    	}
    	printf(  'by: %s',  bp_core_get_userlink( $gallery->user_id ) );
    }
    add_action( 'mpp_gallery_shortcode_item_meta', 'mpp_custom_display_gallery_owner_name' );
    
    

    For other cases, you may take a look at the code here
    https://gist.github.com/sbrajesh/b47b84c3fdca9b76f04e696894a80d06

    We will be pushing the changed code(sorry, we missed the last deadline), hopefully this sunday too.
    Thank you. We will keep you informed.

    Regards
    Brajesh

    Greetings Brajesh,

    I am still not getting the name of the gallery owner on a page of galleries created with short code. The name does now however show up in the lightbox.

    Hi Xochi,
    I am not sure of the issue. I am going to ask @ravisharma to take a fresh look at this and see if he can help here.

    Thank you

    I am also interested in adding the name to the site wide gallery, It currently only shows the gallery title “wall photo gallery” I am happy with the functionality. I would just like users to be able to see who’s gallery they are looking at with out have to open it.

    If the code above is correct , where would I add it to ?
