Default Placeholders

When toPlaceholders is set to 1, GalleryItem automatically sets placeholders for the item. They are prefixed by default with 'galitem', but you can change that with the toPlaceholdersPrefix parameter. A list of these placeholders is as follows:

Name Description
name The name of the Item.
filename The filename of the item. This will be relative to the path where the files are stored, which is usually assets/components/gallery/files/.
description The description of the item.
mediatype The media type of the Item. Currently this is only 'image'.
createdon The timestamp that this Item was created on.
createdby The User ID of the creator of this Item.
active If this Item is active or not. Can be 1 or 0.
albums A list of Albums this Item is in.
tags A list of Tags associated with this Item.
url If set, a URL for this Item.

GalleryItem Chunks

There are 3 chunks that are processed in GalleryItem. Their corresponding GalleryItem parameters are:

  • tpl - The Chunk to use if toPlaceholders is set to 0.
  • albumTpl - The Chunk to use for each Album listed with the item.
  • tagTpl - The Chunk to use for each Tag listed with the item.

Examples

Display the Item with ID 12, but only if it exists.

[[!GalleryItem? &id=`12`]]
[[!+galitem.image:notempty=`
    <div class="image">
    <a href="[[+galitem.image]]">
    <img src="[[+galitem.image]]" alt="[[+galitem.name]]" />
    </a>
    <br />Albums: [[+galitem.albums]]
    <br />Tags: [[+galitem.tags]]
    </div>
`]]

Display the Item with ID 23, but use a Chunk called 'Photo' for display.

[[!GalleryItem?
    &id=`23`
    &toPlaceholders=`0`
    &tpl=`Photo`
]]

Display the Item with ID 432 with a Chunk called 'Photo', but separate the Tags associated with it by a pipe ("|"):

[[!GalleryItem?
    &id=`432`
    &toPlaceholders=`0`
    &tpl=`Photo`
    &tagSeparator=` | `
]]
