There are two different codes. both works. but how will sort images by date? Where and how do I use filemtime. Thank you.
First Code:
$scandir_array = scandir('files');
foreach($scandir_array as $folder){
if(is_dir('files/'.$folder) and $folder!='.' and $folder!='..'){
// define this key in the array, it will be blank, store categories as keys
$categories_array[$folder] = array();
// $total_photos_array[$folder] = 0;
$files_in_dir = scandir('files/'.$folder);
foreach($files_in_dir as $file){
if($file!='.' and $file!='..'){
// if file is not the category thumbnail (thumbnail.jpg) and not _thumb.jpg and not _small.jpg
if($file != "thumbnail.jpg" and substr($file, strlen($file)-10) != "_small.jpg" and substr($file, strlen($file)-10) != "_thumb.jpg"){
// $total_photos_array[$folder]++;
$base_file_name = substr($file, 0, strlen($file)-4);
// insert this file in the array of files
array_push($categories_array[$folder], $base_file_name);
}
}
}
}
}
krsort($categories_array);
Second Code:
if ($handle = opendir('files')) {
while (false !== ($folder = readdir($handle))) {
if(is_dir('files/'.$folder) and $folder!='.' and $folder!='..'){
// define this key in the array, it will be blank, store categories as keys
$categories_array[$folder] = array();
// $total_photos_array[$folder] = 0;
$files_in_dir = scandir('files/'.$folder);
foreach($files_in_dir as $file){
// if file ends in _thumb.jpg
if(strpos($file, '_thumb.jpg') === strlen($file)-10){
// $total_photos_array[$folder]++;
$base_file_name = substr($file, 0, strlen($file)-10);
// insert this file in the array of files
array_push($categories_array[$folder], $base_file_name);
}
}
}
}
closedir($handle);
}
krsort($categories_array);
