hi,

I'm a little bit confused how to call the thumbs on my index page. I want to have a mixture of all galleries there (I link to external galleries on tube sites).
Lets say I have 15,000 galleries in DB from 3 different tubes, 5,000 from each. I use in index.tpl
<thumb duration_min=5 order=clicks num=1-80></thumb>

Now when I reset stats from all galleries and delete cache and go to the mainpage I always get several sites deep with thumbs almost only from tube 1, only a little few thumbs are from tube 2 or 3. Is there a way to shuffle this a bit more?

When I click a few thumbs and wait for rebuilding of the page only a few of the thumbs I have clicked are showing up on top of the page, but I set it to be ordered on clicks (tried oder=hits as well). Test thumbs are set to not show before thumb 50.

The duration_min=5 doesn't have any effect on the galleries that are shown, also galleries with 2 and 3 minutes show up.

Can you please give me a hint what I have to change to order the galleries by clicks and how to use this duration_min ?

Thank you!

There are a lot of questions actually so lets do them one by one.

It doesn't show thumbs from other sites: by default it shows thumbs by ctr , so are they in ctr order right now at index page?

It's a new site without traffic. But when I click a few different thumbs, click delete cache and reload the mainpage the thumbs I clicked on are not showing on top of the page. I tried it with this in index.tpl
<thumb num=1-80></thumb>
and with this
<thumb order=clicks num=1-80></thumb>

"It doesn't show thumbs from other sites:"
It does show thumbs from other tubes, but its like this: 5000 from each tube in DB, and script shows on mainpage 75 from tube 1, 3 from tube 2 and 2 from tube 3. The same for the following pages. The thumbs from tube 1 get nearly 95% of the spots on the first pages. I would need to have them shuffled a little bit more, the site is new, nearly all thumbs have 0 clicks.

Did you check that those thumbs you clicked at have ctr?

you are right, after I click on thumbs and go to LIST THUMBS they show up there with 0 clicks. But why? In subtemplate I have
<a href="/out.php?url=<!--URL-->&link=<!--LINK-->"><!--DESCRIPTION--></a>

I thought this <!--LINK--> is the part for counting the clicks?

does it count views?

yes: "Shows : 52" and so on

Ok
