I would like to know how can I retrieve the Captions of the folders and use them as breadcrumb elements.

Can you advice?

Hmm, well there is no easy solution for this.

You could check agGallery.php function initGallery

Code: Select all

            // Album Support
            $this->albumParentLink = '';
            $this->albumInitFolders[] = "";
            $this->albumInitFolders[$this->index] = $this->imagesFolderName; // Set init folders
            if (!empty($_GET['AG_form_albumInitFolders_' . $this->articleID])) {
                $AG_form_albumInitFolders_array = explode(",", $_GET['AG_form_albumInitFolders_' . $this->articleID]);
                $this->albumInitFolders[$this->index] = $AG_form_albumInitFolders_array[$this->index];
                $this->imagesFolderName = $AG_form_albumInitFolders_array[$this->index];
                // Support for Album Parent Link
                if ($this->imagesFolderName != $this->imagesFolderNameOriginal) {
                    $this->albumParentLink = '
                        <a href="#" onClick="AG_form_submit_' . $this->articleID . '(' . $this->index . ',1,\'' . dirname($this->imagesFolderName) . '\'); return false;" class="AG_album_parent">
                            <span>
                                ' . basename(dirname($this->imagesFolderName)) . '
                            </span>
                        </a>
                        <br style="clear:both;" />
                        ';
                }
            }

            // Breadcrump Support           
            if (JFactory::getApplication()->getMenu()->getActive()->query['view'] == "layout") {
                $this->writeBreadcrum();
            }

At the end you see that we call $this->writeBreadcrum();

Code: Select all

    /**
     * Breadcrump Support
     * Author: Lee Anderson
     * Authors e-mail: landerson@atlas-tech.com
     */
    function writeBreadcrum() {
        $folderNames = str_replace('//', '/', $this->imagesFolderName);
        $albumName = explode("/", $folderNames);
        $folderNumber = count($albumName) - 1;
        $linkFolderName = '';
        for ($i = 0; $i <= $folderNumber; $i++) {
            $linkFolderName .= $albumName[$i] . '/';
            $linkFolderName = str_replace('//', '/', $linkFolderName);
            if ($albumName[$i] != '' && $i != 0) {
                $this->events['name'] = $albumName[$i];
                $link = 'Javascript: AG_form_submit_' . $this->articleID . '(' . $this->index . ',1,\'' . $linkFolderName . '\');';
                $mainframe = JFactory::getApplication();
                $document = JFactory::getDocument();
                $pathway = $mainframe->getPathway();
                $document->setTitle($this->events['name']);
                $pathway->addItem($this->events['name'], $link);
            }
        }
    }

So in your case you should edit writeBreadcrum to your needs.

But for this to work, you should have some array that would hold album names, for example if you open Albums->Vacation->Summer2013, you should have $breadcrums = {"My albums","Vacation pictures", " Carribiens"}

Bottom end is, it is possible, but requires some work
