Major Additions - PhotoPlog: The Lite Gallery

PhotoPlog: The Lite Gallery

PhotoPlog Lite is a gallery script for GIF, JPG, and PNG images. PhotoPlog Lite comes with categories, permissions, comments, search, moderation. The installation takes care of phrases, templates, tables, etcetera. Just follow the README.txt file for installation.

There is a license agreement that I request that you abide. Thanks!

This thread is organized as follows:

• Post1 contains this here release.
• Post2 contains current add-ons.
• Post3 contains onscreen errors.

Fine Print: see license agreement, no redistribution, copyright retained in full, right reserved to uncheck support box.

Requirements: vB 3.5.0+ (development initially based on having vB 3.5.4 though vB 3.6.0+ and vB 3.7.0+ should be okay, but not every version was personally tested) and MySQL 4.1+ (development based on having MySQL 4.1+ though MySQL 3+ may be okay, but not every version was personally tested) and PHP with GD2 and Safe Mode off

Does it work on vB 3.5 and vB 3.6 and vB 3.7? Yes, it should. See the requirements. Also, there are two product XML files, one for vB 3.5 and one for vB 3.6/3.7, so import the one that matches your vB version.

Live Demo and Official Support: http://www.photoplog.com/

Note on Official Support: With 70 some pages, assuming 15 posts per page, and over 1000 posts, all in one thread, official support for this mod is now held off-site. Apologies in advance for possibly having to register at yet another forum, but IMHO support would be better served elsewhere at this point.

All support requests, except perhaps for proven bugs, may be ignored if posted in this thread.

Comments, suggestions, etcetera are welcome, but please note that further modifications are not being planned, as this is intended as the final release of the lite series.

Fun Fact: PhotoPlog Lite v.2.0.6 had 4330 downloads plus 2262 downloads prior to CSRF protection plus 3031 downloads as of 06 Nov 2010!

Are there plans for a watermark?

I'd just like to have some categories with access restricted per usergroup. So I can have general family stuff and adult stuff all seperate without worry. That or some form of moderation of pictures from admins so that we can make sure no one sees anything insulting or worse before we get a chance to remove it.

Right now categories are being finished. See attachment if interested. More add-ons are planned, time permitting, like better usergroup control, comments, etcetera.

Hey Calorie
are you out a final version ?

[Lamby1973]

Installed this and got it working, but when i upload a picture, i only get a red x's appearing... any ideas on how to fix?

[calorie]

@Allan: not yet, moving usergoup stuff out of options and into usergroup manager.

@Lamby1973: check the image path, see if it agrees with the path set in options.

Now i cant upload anything, just get "Sorry, Jon: Bad Open" and ive checked the permissions!

Fantastic. Nice and functional.
I know i have some people itching to post the photoshops they've done of their friends in various rude sexual positions but are holding off until I can flag them .. heh. God I love photoshop.

@Lamby1973: it means that PhotoPlog cannot do the PHP fopen() so it's a permission or ownership issue. Do you have PHP in safe mode by chance?

@lordnex: lol, creative individuals. The usergroup permissions are now in the usergroup manager, so moderation is coming as soon as time permits.

PhotoPlog has been updated to allow for categories and different usergroup permissions. Whether upgrading or doing a fresh install, just follow the instructions in the readme file. With the way table stuff is now separated from other stuff, it shouldn't pose a loss to file information when upgrading. The screenshots in the release post have been updated, should you like a preview.
