help needed: including a external page

[Dan]

Heya,

Ive got a problem and i dont really know where to start solving it. I was hoping someone good point me in a direction.

I want to have a self-made comic on my site.
The idea is that i dont want it to be listed on the same page as the text-entries.
The s9y mediagallery is a nifty thing and im sure that somehow it can be achieved that the images of a specific directory will be displayed within the current template by simply clicking on a link in the sidebar.

I just dont know how i can achieve this.
Could someone please help me in the right direction?

The easiest way would be to create a sidebar HTML nugget plugin which contains simple HTML to show your comic.
Advantage: Very easy to do
Disadvantage: Needs to be manually maintained

Another way would be to use the 'gallery' plugin available in our additional_plugins repository (see our wiki). However I have not yet used that plugin so I don't know if it does what you want. It interfaces with your media gallery and lets users view it.

The last way would be that you create a Serendipity Plugin (PHP) for this need. But that would require some PHP knowledge.

Regards,
Garvin
