CB Gallery asset

Hi,
I have an idea that part of the articles of one category will be a button to add images to the article. (CB Gallery). Only the author of the article can upload/edit images to the article and no one else.

I don't want to manually add something to the article like:
The images should also show up in the author's CB profile, Gallery tab.
Can this be created using the CB Gallery plugin?

BTW, CB Activity 6 looks really great.

Thank you.

There's no automatic integration with Joomla articles. The CB Gallery Bot usage would require you to insert a shortcode into each article. If you want automatic integration you might be able to do that using CB Auto Actions and a Gallery action acting on joomla_onContentAfterDisplay to insert a gallery. This is how CB Activity for example adds comments/likes to articles. Something like the below (quick example! not tested!):

Global
Triggers: joomla_onContentAfterDisplay
Type: Gallery
User: Specific
Specific User: [var2_created_by]
Conditions
Field: Custom > Value
Custom Value: [var1]
Operator: Equal To
Value: com_content.article
Action
Mode: Gallery
Asset: article.[var2_id]
Output
Display: Return

Likely will need adjustments, but should be a good starting point.

Thank you for the instructions. I have tried all the available tutorials from the discussion forum here (comments on the article, code for non-registered etc.) but without success. Just set the automatic actions and everything happens automatically? Or do I need to enable something somewhere?

BTW, I have a feeling that in previous versions of CB there were maybe 90 predefined automatic actions (Activity logs, Groupjive..). Now only two auto actions.

Does the above output nothing? Try removing the condition and see what happens as you might need to adjust what context you're trying to display it on.

Those were for CB Activity integration. With CB Activity 6.0.0 they're no longer needed since activity and notification logging is just built into CB Activity. This means those system actions are now removed.

Thanks for your reply.
I have uploaded the pictures in the attachment here. The goal is to show the code for all in the article detail. Can you please confirm that this setting is correct? I am still unable to display anything.
I very much appreciate your help. 







 

Was able to confirm it's not working due to changes to Joomla 5 content event. Have implemented a fix in latest CB Auto Actions build release and confirmed it's now possible to output to the newer Joomla event objects.
