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!

Great work! Installed-

A word of suggestion-
for the first page where you put the code for the navbar and memberinfo ect, put the regular "find x, add below". That would make this mod complete!

Please help, simple query -

How do I add a 1 pixel border around each thumbnail on the forum index page?

Hey guys, I just installed it and I can see the PhotoPlog Group in my AdminCP but I don't notice any change on my forum homepage. I've create 2 test categories and I still do not see any change on my forum home page.

Any ideas?

Categories are created in Photoplog, on the photoplog index page. They are not part of your forum home page. They are not the same as forum categories.

I figured it out...thanks

I was equally as confused. But if you go to http://yourdomainname.com/photoblog (or wherever you put the photoblog folder) you'll see it there (if you change the usergroup permissions). Even the admin group is set not to be able to see/do anything at first. But if you edit the permissions & go to that URL you should see something.

If you still don't you might want to try adding categories.

Otherwise you do have to add the link to your navbar yourself. I actually created a board that redirects to it (for web graphic designers & that's what the gallery is for).

Also did you go all the way to the bottom of the page for the extra notes? I just did this following the directions & I can see random thumbs on the forum home-page like we're supposed to: http://www.dawnswebdesigns.com/forum/index.php. Plus if you look at a post you'll see under the arcade scroll the link for gallery & that I've added 2 images so far.


Which was why I came in here. THANK YOU so much for making this. I've been looking for a gallery mod forever. It's working pretty good so far. TY TY TY TY.

Somewhere either at the top of this thread or perhaps some of the first couple of posts you have the code to add this link to the navbar. It don't tell you where to put it. I tried posting that code in a few places...first of all it adds 2 links side by side. Plus it goes above all the rest of the links. I could chop up some code around it & get it added but I decided to have a board redirect to the URL instead. But others might want it added. If you could get the correct code plus note in the instructions people must add the link to the navbar manually I think this mod would be as close to perfect as a mod could get. I think for the first time I'm gonna vote for a mod of the month & it's gonna be this one.

Did you run this script to make sure your path is correct:

PHP Code:

<?php
echo getcwd();
?>

And is the http:// link set up properly in the Admin CP?
