Random image thumbnail to be displayed Can't Post

Hi,

I am using listings manager product and wish to display a random listings thumbnail on a shtml page. I have read the forums and found the Random Listing Script by Deven so used this for the base coding.

From this I then created a new template that includes just the thumbnail or the no image icon if no image is uploaded for the listing and then made a call in the shtml file to the random.php made by Deven.

Only issue I have is that if the listing has more than one image attached then all are selected and displayed (normally 10 images), I would I like to be able to display just the listings index thumbnail or maybe 3 of the listings thumbnails instead of all 10.

i have attached a copy of my template page as I think this is the issue but could be wrong if any one has any ideas you would be a star

Regards,
Sam

Hi Sam,

Thanks for posting!

Unfortunately we aren't able to support third-party add-ons like this random image script, but someone else on the forum who has experience with this might be able to jump in here for you. Smile

thanks for the response, i think the issue is more to do with the templates as the random script works fine its the template calls that dont, is there any info you know of that explains how the templates work i.e what the prams mean?

i have looked in the forums but could not see any thing that explains them for example what the following does?

<!-- template insert : $images$ -->
<!-- templatecell : image -->

Regards,
Sam
