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.

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.

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!

Neal,

Take a look at phpinfo under the "GD" section, your answer should be there.
Your GD version should be greater than or equal to 2.0.28 to support gif. Check it out.

Nice I got it all working etc. I only have one little question, where can I change the way the subcats are being displayed on index.php? I have looked @ the templates but couldn't find it

Hi,

I'm in trouble to make a complete back-up of my site.
I'm having a shared hosting account and have no privileges to deal with the files from within the photoplog directory. That owner and user rights of course are set by the upload script within Photoplog.

Is there a way to change the setting of the user rights, or let the script set the user rights to at least 744 or higher?

Chmod doesn't work because of the higher owner rights of the files.

Ugggh!

I've installed / uninstalled this thing since v1.0, and I can't get it to work with the proper paths. I've tried on 2 different servers, and it simply doesn't work. Forum images try to pull from /photoplog/images rather than ../images or http://www.site.com/images, links are all eff'd in navigation. I'm going to uninstall this until it is properly coded for forum paths, and linking. This is more of a headache than it's worth at the moment.

If you are having this problem (like I was also) you need to approve the uploads via the admin area.
Works fine once done.

Hope that helps some of you.

@dethfire: try repairing the photoplog_fileuploads table and check for an abundance of MySQL temp files.

FYI: PhotoPlog Lite v.2.0.3 has been released. It fixes a few minor bugs and is intended as the final release of the lite series, save for any possible bugs. You are highly encouraged to upgrade so you obtain the latest changes.
