How to force List/Grid views?

[EdoFede]

Hi,

The view setting (List/Grid) seems to be used as global setting, so if I browse categories in List mode, also the thunbnail are browsed in List mode.

Is there a way to force List view in Categories/Index pages and Grid view in Thumbnails pages in the code?

I'm not practical in piwigo programming structure and I was unable to find a way to do it. (In my case, since I use description in albums but no texts in photos, I'll disable also the change view bottons)

Thanks in advance.

There is currently no way to set this separately.

Ok thank you anyway.

In case others need to do the same, I describe the workaround I implemented (although not really beautiful) to have this functionality.

I've modified the footer.tpl file, adding at the bottom (just before the

statement) a simple javascript code that runs on page load and triggers (with a little delay) the grid/list view buttons, depending of the presence of the slideshow icon (which appears in Thumbnails page).

    <script type="text/javascript">
        $("document").ready(function() {
            setTimeout(function() {
                document.getElementById('btn-grid').click();
            },10);
        });
    </script>
{else}
    <script type="text/javascript">
        $("document").ready(function() {
            setTimeout(function() {
                document.getElementById('btn-list').click();
            },10);
        });
    </script>
{/if}```

With this workaround, all index and categories pages appears in list view and all thumbnails pages appear in grid view.
