Photopress 0.7.1

This version fixes a bunch of bugs introduced with the database table. No more errors with zero or one image uploaded. There’s now an option to retain the original images (disabled by default – see Options:Photopress to enable it). Finally, Photopress should now produce valid XHTML. Note that this required putting the album CSS in a separate file, so if you’ve customized album.php you’ll want to move your CSS from there to pp_album_css.php.

Download Photopress 0.7.1: photopress.zip OR photopress.tar.gz

Here’s what I’m planning on doing next:

  • Multiple-file uploader – I’ve got the Javascript to make the form but need to write the PHP to process the files.
  • Optional paths in Options – if Photopress guesses your path info badly there should be an easier way to set it manually.
  • Thinking about how Photopress might fit into WP 1.6.

    Really good plugin. I think I will use it on my site. May I ask for some requests.

    - count parameter for random function to get more then 1 thumbnail.

    - function to show last uploaded photo. (by file date)

    - function to show any selected photo. (selected IN album manager (checkbox show in …) )

    all this as separated fuctions (not metas)

    Thank you!

    working with plugin right now… have done many hacks. i hope my requests might be useful for future development.

    - Original files (if enabled) steel on hard drive after image delete
    - Uninstall option to clean up data base (or clean up DB button useful on setup stage)
    - delete all photos in category
    - checkboxes to delete group of photos

    Warning: getimagesize(/home/lopez/public_html/blog/wp-content/photos/thumb_IMG_1981.JPG): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/lopez/public_html/blog/wp-content/plugins/photopress/upload.php on line 351
    File uploaded!

    Your file IMG_1981.JPG was uploaded successfully!

    —–
    it wont create a thumbnail and eventhough it does put the full size version in the photos directory it still says my gallery is empty.

    Also its not resizing the full size pic. can it do this? If the full size image i upload is 800px wide and i say 640 is max will it resize?

    please help

    I haven’t been able to get permalinks working with Photopress although it works on all the rest of my WordPress blog. Also the photo opening in the album to a blank page is a bit annoying. Once the photo is opened in the album there shouldn’t be a link to open in a blank page. I don’t recall in the information about Photopress that the plugin would add a table to the WP database. At the very lease this out to be made clear to the user before installing the plugin.

    Hi, Isaac!

    Best … WP photo/image plugin … ever! Exactly what I was looking for these days. Actually, much more than I was looking for! Thanks so much for your effort.

    I’ve read a few comments from others about non-working buttons. When I was test driving the plugin locally on XMAPP/Windows, I had a similar problem. The solution was to replace all (3-4) instances of “__FILE__” with “basename (__FILE__).” Sorry, I lost track about the exact files and line numbers, but I believe as a coder you have a good editor to find/replace within multiple files. Not sure, if that solves all the problems, but it worked for me (after spending the better part of an afternoon on it;).

    Not a big thing, and I don’t want to extend your wish list too much. I’d love to have some way of sorting images after uploading, i.e. change the order they appear in the album when it is clicked in the weblog. Maybe it’s already there and I am missing something? For now, I am working directly on the database, by swapping IDs in the photopress table. Yeah, go on rofl – but everybody loves to play God from time to time. :)

    Okay, enough of this. Once again: great work!

    Cheers,
    Ed

    Hi!

    Great plugin has gotten even better, thanks!

    Unfortenatly I have a bug, my sidebar won’t fit any longer in the gallery, as it did in earlier versions. It’s shown under the gallery rather than beside. Any idea why?

  9. Roge says:

    - $image['alt'] = $image_data['imgdesc']; Descriptions are always very long. It will be much better if you can change this to $image['alt'] = $image_data['imgname']; This will display image alt and anchor title as image name.

    There should be possible to show a large version of the image when it shows in the “popup”. For my site I will not be able to show my visitors larger images then 500px, even if the click to open it in a new window. Will this function come in the next version?

    Thanks for a great plugin by the way! ;)

    Sorry. Just discovered that it is possible.. What a GREAT plugin..

    Just bulk uploads and mass deleting to remain. ;)
