Chapter 3

TGP settings


CONTENTS


In this chapter you learn how to customize your TGPs. After TGP building (using New TGP from Global -> Main menu, as explaint in Chapter 1), it's short name will appear in the drop-down menu, on top of the right side of the bottom frame. If you already built more than one TGP, you must select the one you want to work on.

Main page layout        TGP: Main page layout (right side of bottom frame)

Base

This must be first step after TGP building: to set the TGP type. Part of the future settings depends on the TGP type. You must be aware that changing the TGP type will cancel all the other settings. You may choose between three types of TGP:

Details

This section depends on the TGP type.

Decor

It's up to you to let Bush to build a table for you. In this case, you must complete the table settings. In case you want to design your own layout, don't fill up these boxes.

Titles

These are the categories or parts names, which should be on top of every list. Depending on the TGP type (separate daily list, chronological list or categorized list), you are allowed to use different variables for the parts titles: Sample:
If you want to edit categories/parts names by your own, in every HTML file, you may leave this field empty.

Archives layout        TGP: Archives layout (right side of bottom frame)

You may choose between categorized and chronological archives.

For each categorized archive, Bush let you split the list in many parts and columns, set the maximum number of links and the part's title. For every part, Bush will create an insert info which you may use in your HTML files. You also may choose to let Bush build a table containing the archive list. If you want to build your own layout, in the HTML file, just leave empty the table edit boxes.

If you choose to use chronological archives Bush allows you to make the same settings as for a category, in a categorized TGP.

Canon

This section allows you to avoid listing the same galleries in different TGPs. In the middle frame TGB will show you the list of all TGPs, except the one you are actually working on. You must check the boxes corresponding to those TGPs you don't want to list the same galleries, then hit Submit Query.

Categories

As explaint in Chapter 1, TGB defines two types of categories: global and local. Global categories refer to all TGP's, they appear in the submission form. Local categories are defined for one TGP. They may have the same or different names as the global categories.

A local category may be in correspondence with one or many global categories. That means Bush may join many categories creating a new one. Figure 6 illustrates the above concept.


Figure 6 - Global and local categories

Teens, Amateurs, Outdoor, Panties, Upskirt, Hardcore, Group and Asians are global categories. TGP 1 has five categories: Teens, Amateurs, and Asians are the same as the global categories. Fetish and Action Couples are local categories of TGP 1 created as a joint of some global categories, as shown. Babes and Fetish are local "joint" categories of TGP 2. In TGP 2 Hardcore remains the same as the global one, GroupSex changes the name of the global correspondent. TGP 2 don't use Asian global category.

For defining categories of your new TGP, you must follow the Categories link from Main menu. In the middle frame you will see a two column table. You must fill the name of the local category in the left colomn and make the correspondence with the global one, by selecting it from the pull-down menu. If you want to make a multiple selection, to create a new joint category, just keep the CTRL down and use the mouse for selecting the categories you want. You may use itself as global correspondent only if the name of the local category is the same as the global one.

Descriptions

For each category, a TGP has it's own local descriptions. They are in correspondence with the global descriptions, but this time the correspondence is one-to-one.

To edit local descriptions, follow Descriptions link from Main menu. In the top-left frame Bush will show you a list of all defined categories. Choose the one you want to edit. In the middle frame you will see a table with local and global descriptions. Type the text you want for every local description and hit Submit Query. Leave blank if you want the local description to be the same as the global one.

Recip

This section deals with reciprocal banner (button) or text link. You must define the links for your reciprocal banner. They must be one per line, no blank lines. Figure 7 shows a sample of this form.

Insert info

In this section Bush provides you the code to insert into HTML files. The code is separated for main page, archives and submission form. For a categorized TGP you will find insert info for every category. For a cronological one, you find as many insert codes as the number of parts you chose to split main list.

You must put this code into HTML files which you intend to upload on server. At every update, Bush will replace this code with the list of galleries, as defined in Line output section.

The submission form file is the only one you must upload via FTP. You must create a file necessarily named submit.html and upload it into brownie/submit directory on your server, using a FTP client. This file may contain the rules you demand for submission or any other HTML code, but it necessarily must contain the insert info for the submission form.

Upload pages

All files of the site (main page files, archive files) must be uploadet using this form. The files will be uploadet in TGP directory, as defined when TGP was built.

Of course, it is your task to design your sites HTML files. You must put the insert info Bush provides you in this files. At every update, TGB will replace this info with HTML code generated according to your settings.

Edit pages

Bush allows you to edit uploadet files in your browser window. Anyway, as the entire file is opened in the middle frame, it may be difficult to edit large amounts of code in this frame. You probably will use this edit window only for small changes in HTML files.

If you want to delete one of uploadet files, you must delete the entire file content. Bush automatically deletes empty files.

Rebuild TGP

This section looks pretty much the same as New TGP section from Global -> Main menu. You may need to rebuild a TGP when you change it's domain name, it's TGP directory or any other settings related to the New TGP form. All previous settings remain the same after TGP rebuilding.

Line output        TGP: Line output (right side of bottom frame)

In this section you define how a single line to look like, for main list and archives. Bush provides you many posibilities to customize this line.

The line output notion defines the part of HTML code which is repeted for every gallery listed in main page or archives.

At every update, Bush replaces parameters used in this line (such as url, category) with current values, repeats this replacement for an amount of lines defined for each TGP (Main page/Archives Layout -> Details), and insert this code into main page and archives files.

Main list and archives

As the line output concept is the same for main list and archives, we don't need to present it twice. Figure 8 illustrates the way Bush works for generating main page and archives files.


Figure 8 - How Bush generates HTML files

It's up to you to customize line output for each TGP. You may find useful the samples in the table below.

Line output HTML file
Wednesday - Babe doing somethins - 15 pics
Wednesday - Cute girl - 20 pics
Wednesday - Nice woman - 22 pics
...
Wednesday - Beautiful teen - 16 pics
20 Amateurs thanks Joey
15 Teens thanks Stacey
16 Teens thanks Tom
...
15 Outdoor thanks XMan

All parameters you are allowed to use are listed above the text box you must fill up, in order to define the line output. Most of these parameters are pretty intuitive (such as {month}, {year}, {url}), and they are explained in the same window. I will explain how to use {type}, {mark#} and {random#} parameters.

Bush allows you to show the type of each listed gallery. There are two things you must complete for that: use the {type} variable in line output definition, and define the code for each gallery type. Defining the code for gallery type is explained in Type section. The table below shows a sample of how to use {type} variable in line output definition.

Amateurs gallery - pics
Hardcore gallery - mixed
Outdoor gallery - videos
Teens gallery - pics
Teens gallery - videos

Bush allows you to use a particular mark for each listed gallery. For that, you must use the {mark#} variable in line output definition, replacing "#" with a number (mark1, mark2). Let's say you have defined the following line output:

After you hit "Submit Query", you must acces again the Line output menu. In the top-left frame you will find Mark1 link, which will open in the middle frame a window allowing you to define code and short names for each mark. The mark's short name is used to identify a particular mark. The code may be any text or HTML. Figure 9 shows a sample of defining marks.

The association between a particular gallery and a mark is made by reviewer (in the right side of the TGP name you will find a drop-down menu containing short names of all defined marks). You may choose to associate a mark to a gallery, but it is not mandatory. You also are allowed to assign marks to listed galleries, by editing the gallery (Global -> Edit Database, then choose the day when the gallery entered the database).

Bush allows you to use as many marks as you want. It is up to you to decide how many to be used.

The {random#} parameter allows you to associate a random text or HTML to every listed gallery. For that, you must use {random#} variable in line output definition, replacing "#" with a number. As in the mark case, you may use many {random#} parameters.

Suppose you have defined following output line:

You must hit "Submit Query" and then access the Line output menu again. In the top-left frame you will find a new link, called Random 1 which will open in the middle frame a window containing a text-box. In this text-box you must fill up, one per line, the random text/HTML. Figure 11 shows a dumb sample of random text/HTML definition. Of course, it is you decision how to use this.

Description

This section allows you to convert gallery description to lower or upper case, or let it unchanged. You also may choose to force to upper case first character of description.

Amount extention

You may choose to to add a text, image or other HTML code after the number showing the amount of images/videos in a gallery. For example, you may use the word pics for image galleries and videos for movie galleries.

Type

Bush allows you to show the gallery type. For that, you must use the {type} variable in line output definition.

There are three types, according to the gallery content: pictures, videos and mixed galleries. For every of this types, you are allowed to define a particular text or HTML (you may want to show a little picture defining the gallery type).

Figure 10 shows two samples of how to use text or to load images, which must define the gallery type. Of course, if you want to load pictures you must build them first.

Main page/archives permlinks        TGP: Main page/archies permlinks (right side of bottom frame)

Bush allows you define permanent links for every generated part, as explained in Main page/archives layout sections. A complete list of generated parts, according to your previous settings, will be listed in the top-left frame. For a categorized TGP, you are allowed to define perm links for every category (if you chose not to split categories).

You may choose a constant position for every permanent link (for that you must fill up the correspondent position filed), or let Bush randomize perms positions, checking the Random permanent links placement box. In this last case, you may leave empty position fields, they will not be considered, even you filled them up.

You are allowed to use a lot of parameters - part of them are the same as those used in line output definition. The meaning of {day}, {weekday}, {weekdayshort}, {month}, {monthshort} and {year} parameters is intuitive, thay will not be explained anymore.

How to use {url#}, {description#}, {onmouseover#}, {webmaster#} and {random#}

All these parameters are working in the same way: first, you must define the permanent link code, using one or more of these parameters ("#" must be replaced by a number). After you hit "Submit Query", you must access again Main page/Archives permlinks section. In the top-left frame you will find one (many) new link(s), which will allow you to define a list containing url's, descriptions, onmouserover texts, nick-names or any other text. Suppose you have defined the following permlink line for the main page:

After you hit "Submit Query" and access the Main page permlinks section again, in the top-left frame you will find six new text-links, called "URL 1", "URL 2", "URL 3", "Description 1", "Description 2", "Description3". When you hit on one of these links, in the middle frame you will be allowed to define the correspondent list of URL's or descriptions. At every update, Bush will replace the correspondent parameter with a random line of your list.

How to use {randomcat}

Just insert {randomcat} parameter into permlink code, and Bush will replace it with a random category, as you defined for the TGP. Sample:

How to use {mark#-[name]}

In the line output section you learnt how to define marks. As you remember, a mark is defined by it's number (mark1, mark2..) and it's (short) name. Click here to see the mark sample again.

When you use marks in permlinks, you are allowed to use only those marks you already defined in line output section. You must identify the mark to be used by it's number and it's name. Sample:

How to use {type-[type]}

There are only three combinations for this parameter: {type-pics}, {type-video} and {type-mixed}. You are allowed to use any of these combinations in permlink definition code.
