Hey Ev, can you make it so that you can jump to a specific page number? That would be good if there's a place in the forums where someone says they posted a pic, and the link no longer works, but you could fairly quickly zero in on the date of the post, and make some guesses as to page numbers to zero in on that date. As it is now, you have to click through one page at a time, because you're only given the option of the first three pages, the last three pages, and the two pages just before and after the current one.

Also, I was wondering how easy it was to modify phpbb to use it as a gallery?
Thanks,
Jeremy

I don't really want to change the default behavior of the paging in phpBB and the Gallery.

What you can do is click on a page, then change the "start=" setting to move forward. Like Page 2 has "start=20" at the top, make it "start=200" and see where you end up.

Yeah, not the best answer but...

The gallery is an add-on I found but it only had about 50% of what I needed so I wrote the rest.

Post an example of where one the Gallery links doesn't work, maybe I can do some sort of search & replace in the Forums to fix those links

This is the thread in particular that I was looking at, but I've wondered the same thing too, when looking for a user name in the member list.

Did you mean to post a link to something?

Yes I did. Too much work, too little sleep :oops:

2nd and 3rd page, one is Gonzalo's post, I was able to find it by searching the gallery using his username, but the other one from the third page (not Gonzalo's) wasn't as easy for some reason. Thanks, Jeremy

play_it_leo was the other poster I'm thinking of.
