You can't use it for inserting HTML into the tag, so there will probably be a link_to_img() helper that does something similar to what yours does. I would imagine that it would be something like: link_to_img($featuredItem, 'show', 'orange-btn.gif');. By the way, nice job on the that theme, it looks great! kyleroth on "link_href Helper Function" http://omeka.org/forums/topic/link_href-helper-function#post-465 Fri, 06 Jun 2008 20:32:08 +0000 kyleroth 465@http://omeka.org/forums/ I added a function called link_href to ../helpers/Functions.php and it allows me to link image buttons to item pages. Is there a better way to code this with one of the current functions or would this be something beneficial to add to the global Functions page? Code in Functions.php: <pre><code>function link_href($record, $action='show', $text) { $path = $record->getPluralized() . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . $action . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . $record->id; return '<a href="'. uri($path) . '">' . ($text) . '</a>'; }</code></pre> Code on frontend: <pre><code><?php $orangebot = img('orange-btn.gif'); ?> <?php echo link_href($featuredItem,show,"<img src=$orangebot border='0' >"); ?></code></pre> You can see the theme that I am developing here: <a href="http://euclidcorridor.dreamhosters.com/" rel="nofollow">http://euclidcorridor.dreamhosters.com/</a> KrisKelly on "Next Item in Collection" http://omeka.org/forums/topic/next-item-in-collection#post-439 Fri, 30 May 2008 14:17:24 +0000 KrisKelly 439@http://omeka.org/forums/ Right now, link_to_next_item() and link_to_previous_item() don't know about how you found a particular item. Which is to say, next/previous runs through the whole archive and isn't based on a particular collection or tag, etc. That might be a good thing to add in a future release, but it would also work as a plugin. samipmallick on "Next Item in Collection" http://omeka.org/forums/topic/next-item-in-collection#post-438 Thu, 29 May 2008 20:42:14 +0000 samipmallick 438@http://omeka.org/forums/ I see how to use the link_to_next_item or link_to_previous_item can be used to link to the next/previous item in the entire archive. But, is there a way to link to the next/previous item in the collection and avoid items that aren't in that particular collection? I'm pretty weak at php so any guidance would be much appreciated. Thanks!!

Currently, we are modifying the exhibit builder interface and those changes should help with this problem. For now, you may just have to play around a little with your mouse during the drag and drop process and try to get that thumbnail as centered in the box as possible. I've had some trouble too but have been able to pull the images into the exhibit pages. We look to release the modified exhibit builder function in the fall. Good luck, Sheila Evan on "Problem Adding Item to Exhibit Section Pages" http://omeka.org/forums/topic/problem-adding-item-to-exhibit-section-pages#post-391 Fri, 25 Apr 2008 19:34:21 +0000 Evan 391@http://omeka.org/forums/ Hi Shelia, It is the first case--the thumbnail does not "stick" into the appropriate box when I drag it over. Thanks for you help! -Evan SheilaBrennan on "Problem Adding Item to Exhibit Section Pages" http://omeka.org/forums/topic/problem-adding-item-to-exhibit-section-pages#post-389 Fri, 25 Apr 2008 18:01:19 +0000 SheilaBrennan 389@http://omeka.org/forums/ Hi Evan, Are you having difficulty making the thumbnail "stick" into the appropriate box when you are dragging it over, or are you asking if the entire item will be dragged into the exhibit? Items, as entities, do not get pulled into exhibits. Full item descriptions and metadata remain with the item, as viewed in the items/show page. That metadata does not get pulled into the exhibit. When creating an exhibit, visitors to your site may click on the thumbnail that represents an tem in the exhibit page to see the item's metadata. If I have misunderstood what you are asking about please don't hesitate to clarify.

I can create a page for the exhibit and I can enter text. But, when I go to drag an item into the box to add it to the page, nothing happens. It looks I am just dragging the image file (either the thumbnail of the item or the four-headed arrow icon) that the browser is showing, not the "item" that is supposed to be recognized by Omeka. I have had the same problem using Safari and Firefox on OS X and Internet Explorer and Firefox on Windows. I have also tried it using different exhibits, but I was met with the same results. Any suggestions? Thank you for your help. abarrera on "Add Item error" http://omeka.org/forums/topic/add-item-error#post-230 Mon, 10 Mar 2008 16:17:29 +0000 abarrera 230@http://omeka.org/forums/ Thanks for the tip. That apparently worked, the unfortunate thing for me is it isn't on the server I wanted to use, but I'll make do. thanks! jsafley on "Add Item error" http://omeka.org/forums/topic/add-item-error#post-225 Fri, 07 Mar 2008 20:10:35 +0000 jsafley 225@http://omeka.org/forums/ Unfortunately I cannot reproduce the error. We'll look into it further, but I notice that your PHP is an earlier version than what Omeka requires: PHP 5.2.x or greater. It is possible that this is the cause of the error. abarrera on "Add Item error" http://omeka.org/forums/topic/add-item-error#post-224 Fri, 07 Mar 2008 19:19:45 +0000 abarrera 224@http://omeka.org/forums/ This has been previously reported, but no meaningful solution given. When adding an item, after step 3, the following error occurs: Fatal error: Objects used as arrays in post/pre increment/decrement must return values by reference in /var/www/html/omeka/application/models/Item.php on line 172 This is on a CentOS 5.x box. Omeka 0.9 MySQL v 5.0.22 PHP v 5.1.6 The image is added however.
