We are discussing using autotags to generate a MediaGallery slideshow in a site header at gllabs.org.

(The idea is to have rotating images in the site header.) but we are not sure if the header code is run through the PLG_replaceTags() function in Geeklog. Can anyone confirm this?

Also, if this is the case, could one place code into the themes functions.php file, or in lib-custom that would enable autotags in header.thtml?

:pray:

It's a bit like with static pages (see discussion elsewhere in the forum): You can use PHP in header.htmtl. So why do you need autotags on top of that?

Thanks Dirk for your quick reply!

The idea was to easily drop images into a photo gallery (using MediaGallery for example) and then use the javascript slideshow or flash slideshow autotag feature to have rotating images in the header.

If I understand you correctly though, I should be able to call a function directly in header.thtml that lives in lib-custom.php or the themes functions.php file, correct? For ie:

Text Formatted Code

<body dir="{direction}">
<div class="container">

<div class="titleblock"><h1><a class="headerlink" href="{site_url}/">{site_name}</a></h1><p>{site_slogan}</p></div>
<div class="titleblock-image">
<?php
rotating_image()
?>
</div>
 


I am an absolute beginner with PHP code. Oops! Am I on the right track?

Thx!

Assuming rotating_image() returns the HTML for the image to be displayed, you'll need a "print" in front of it.
