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!

Any ideas?

We are also getting a similar problem with our mods and members. Admins don't seem to be affected. They can get to the directory, but as soon as they click on anything, it takes them to a log in page, they log in and then try to click something again, and it again takes them to a log in page.

It would be nice if, like a forum, you can asign a style to a category.

I have this installed and working perfectly. I'm curious though, is 95 queries normal when looking at the thumbnail pages? When you are going through the albums looking at the thumb nails, it is showing as 95 queries per page. That is way way way way high isn't it?

And holy crap, on the main page where it lists categories and thumb nails it is 154 queries :speechless:

I have the latest version installed and working fine but the function to rate the pictures isn't working. It's just grey stars and they are unclickable. Any ideas why?

Yeah. there seems to be a lot of queries going on in loops which is usually, not the best thing to do.

Is it just this type of gallery? Something that I have done/not done? or is this just a common number for what most galleries will have? We have over 600 members and photo contests with members constantly submitting and viewing pics in the gallery. So 95-154 queries per page is not going to work for us. That's going to end up being thousands upon thousands per hour. Damn
