Skitter and NextGEN Gallery integration

Hi Thiago,
thanks for this nice plugin.
For a client’s website, where administrators are accostumed to use nggallery in order to manage lists of images, I added some functionalities to wp-skitter-slideshow so that they can select a gallery to be shown as slideshow.

For those who may be interested here’s how I made it, please note that this is a hard-code edit and it will be lost in next update (though its quite simple to restore).

All modifications are made on plugins/wp-skitter-slideshow/wp-skitter-slideshow.php

First I added a setting in function getSkitterSettings() (line 103):

function getSkitterSettings()
{
	$wp_skitter_settings = array(
		'wp_skitter_gallery', // Added this
		'wp_skitter_category',
		'wp_skitter_slides',
...

Then I added an option in the activate function wp_skitter_activate() (line 156)

function wp_skitter_activate()
{
	add_option('wp_skitter_category','1');
	add_option('wp_skitter_gallery','1'); // Added this
	add_option('wp_skitter_animation','random');
...

Then three edits on the big function show_skitter() (line 305)

function show_skitter()
{
	$width_skitter = get_option('wp_skitter_width');
	$height_skitter = get_option('wp_skitter_height');

	$category = get_option('wp_skitter_category');
	$wp_skitter_slides = get_option('wp_skitter_slides');

	$gallery = get_option('wp_skitter_gallery'); // Added this to retrieve current selected gallery
?>
...

...
case 'xml' :
			$skitter_xml = true;

			break;

		case 'gallery' : // Added this case

			if(class_exists(nggdb)) { // Check if nggallery plugin is installed
			$wp_skitter_animation = get_option('wp_skitter_animation'); // Use default selected animation

				global $nggdb;
				$imagegallery = new nggdb();
				$images = $imagegallery->get_gallery($gallery); // Retrieve a list of all active images in the selected gallery

					if($images) { // Build the $skitter_images[] array
						foreach($images as $oneimageingal) {
							$skitter_images[] = array(
							'image' => $oneimageingal->imageURL,
							'link' => '',
							'label' => $oneimageingal->description,
							'animation' => $wp_skitter_animation,
						);
						}
					}
			}
			break;

		case 'posts' : default :
...

...
$block = array('wp_skitter_category', 'wp_skitter_slides', 'wp_skitter_width', 'wp_skitter_height', 'wp_skitter_type', 'wp_skitter_attachments');
		$block[] = 'wp_skitter_gallery'; // Added this

		foreach ($settings as $option) {
...

And finally the big edits for showing the settings tab in Admin – wp_skitter_menu_function()
(line 659)

$selected_xml = ($wp_skitter_type == 'xml') ? 'class="tab_selected_sk"' : '';
		$selected_gallery = ($wp_skitter_type == 'gallery') ? 'class="tab_selected_sk"' : ''; // Added this

(line 663)

$tab_selected_xml = ($wp_skitter_type == 'xml') ? ' tab_item_selected_sk' : '';
		$tab_selected_gallery = ($wp_skitter_type == 'gallery') ? ' tab_item_selected_sk' : ''; // Added this

(line 669)

<?php
...
			/* Added this
			// If nggallery is installed add the option to choose a gallery
			*/
			if(class_exists(nggdb)) {  ?>
				<a href="#gallery" rel="tab_gallery_sk" <?=$selected_gallery;?>><?php _e('Gallery'); ?></a>
			<?php } ?>
		</div>

		<?php
			/* Added this by Webartisanit
			// If nggallery is installed adds a settings panel specifical
			*/
			if(class_exists(nggdb)) {  ?>
		<div id="tab_gallery_sk" class="tab_item_sk<?=$tab_selected_gallery;?>">
			<table class="form-table">
				<tr valign="top">
					<th scope="row"><?php _e('Gallery'); ?></th>
					<td>
						<?php
						global $nggdb;
						$gallery = get_option('wp_skitter_gallery'); // Current (or default) gallery
        		$galleries = $nggdb->find_all_galleries('gid', 'DESC'); // List of all available galleries

      			// Build the dropdown menu with the galleries to choose from
						?>
						<select name="wp_skitter_gallery" id="wp_skitter_gallery">
							<?php
								if($galleries) {
								foreach($galleries AS $onegallery) {
									$selectedgal = ($gallery==$onegallery->gid) ? ' selected="selected" ' : '';
										echo '<option ' . $selectedgal . ' value="' . $onegallery->gid . '">' . $onegallery->title . '</option>';
									}
								}
							?>
						</select>
					</td>
				</tr>
			</table>
		</div>
		<?php } ?>
