Photopress 1.1

Friday, February 1st, 2008

Sorry for the lack of updates… I’ve been using this version with WP 2.3.2 and it seems to work well. I have no idea whether it works with older versions or not. It’s mostly a few bug fixes and one major change.
The major change is with the way the album template works. Based on a […]

Photopress 1.0.2

Thursday, March 15th, 2007

First of all, I made a lot of changes, in a lot of places, so there’s probably something broken. So, if it doesn’t work, revert to your old version. But what if you didn’t back up your old version?? In that case, head over to the familypress repository for the version you want. Complete with […]

Contactz 0.2

Friday, March 9th, 2007

The blank lines thing should now be fixed. If you’ve been using it and you have a bunch of blank lines, going to Edit and updating should get rid of them. To fix it easily, I made first name a required field - any objections? It’s also using Capabilities now, instead of Levels, so you […]

Photopress 1.0.1

Thursday, March 8th, 2007

Watermarking is back, but as a plugin now! I’m pretty surprised it works, and I think it’s going to be a great way to add features without cluttering up the options and whatnot . If you’re interested in writing your own sub-plugin, take a look at watermark.php.
I think I fixed the query_posts error.
There’s now an […]

Filez 0.5

Thursday, March 1st, 2007

I added a few features to make it more usable and configurable. You can now specify acceptable file extensions. I should probably do the MIME checking thing like in Photopress… It’s possible to change the visual editor icon if you’ve set the proper file/folder permissions - I included a couple of options. I switched over […]

Photopress 1.0

Tuesday, February 13th, 2007

Please don’t take ‘1.0′ to mean I consider it to be perfect - I just ran out of 0.x space. This version does fix many bugs, including issues with editing categories. I know a bunch of you pointed out the problem, but when my mom noticed I had to fix it (no kidding).
The browse popup […]

Filez 0.4

Monday, February 12th, 2007

This version of Filez should work with WP 2.1, using the same methods Photopress now uses. I’ll probably be making a few further improvements since I’m going to let some family members try it out - always a good way to find bugs and get ideas for improvements.
Download it: filez.zip

Photopress 0.9.7 (WP 2.1+ only)

Friday, February 2nd, 2007

This version uses a new method to place buttons, this time stolen from the Anarchy Media Player Plugin. It’d be nice if the plugin API had an easy way to insert buttons - I guess maybe in 2.2 or 3.0…
Due to all the new files and folders, I suggest deleting your old Photopress folder (back […]

Photopress 0.9.6

Saturday, January 13th, 2007

In an effort to fulfill a New Year’s resolution, I’ve (hopefully) squashed some bugs and bundled together a release of Photopress. This version works for me with WP 2.0.6. I did have one problem, which I think was related to changing hosts, not Photopress: the collation on one of the tables was different from the […]

Photopress 0.9.5

Tuesday, April 25th, 2006

This is just a quick bugfix release, which should solve some of the major problems with the previous one.

Fixed a couple of SQL problems noted by a few people, namely the LEFT JOIN thing but also a weird thing where the default ORDER BY was missing.
Fixed a Javascript problem that was keeping the insert buttons […]

Photopress 0.9.4

Friday, March 3rd, 2006

Sorry this release took so long. I should probably call it 1.0 RC1 or something, but it seems way too buggy for that right now.
New features and fixes:

The main change in this version is a new categories table, which required a bunch of changes all over the place.
Uses buttonsnap to add a pretty button to […]

Dasher 0.2

Thursday, February 2nd, 2006

Dasher is a simple Dashboard replacement. It should now work with both WP 2-ish and 1.5-ish. Dasher 0.2 will display two types of content - PHP files (blocks) and RSS feeds - in place of the former Dashboard. See the included blocks for some examples.
Download dasher.zip.

Filez 0.3

Friday, January 27th, 2006

This version uses Owen Winkler’s Buttonsnap library to add a pretty button to the WP 2 RTE toolbar. If you don’t like the button image, it should be easy enough to make a replacement - see filez.png. It remains backwards-compatible with WP 1.5.2. The popup tool has nicer buttons and better filename conflict handling. Lots […]

Filez 0.2

Saturday, January 21st, 2006

This version should work with both WP 1.5.2 and 2.0. Otherwise, I added an option to insert HTML instead of tags. I may have had options-saving broken at some point, but it seems fixed now.
Download Filez 0.2: filez.zip.

Photopress 0.9.2 (updated again)

Thursday, January 19th, 2006

It should work with both WP 1.5.2 and 2.0, but I could break support for 1.5.2 any time. If you’re upgrading from an earlier version of Photopress, make sure to de-activate and re-activate to update the database table (or use the Install DB tool).
New features and fixes:

Display of non-English characters was broken but I think […]

Up2rand 0.1

Tuesday, January 17th, 2006

Up2rand is sort of a proof-of-concept, but probably actually useful too. It provides a template function that displays random images from those you’ve uploaded using the built-in uploader in WP2 (NOT Photopress). I haven’t tested it extensively, but it seems to work. Obviously, it only works with WP2.
Download Up2rand 0.1: up2rand.zip OR up2rand.tar.gz
Installation and use:
Put […]

Photopress 0.9

Tuesday, January 10th, 2006

This version includes a few fixes, and a couple of new features. It should work with both WP 1.5.2 and 2.0. If you’re upgrading, make sure to de-activate and re-activate to update the database table.
New features and fixes:

Added a category slug field and code to use it - this should fix the permalink problems related […]

Photopress 0.8.5

Tuesday, January 3rd, 2006

This version is still mostly bug fixes, so I’m sticking with 0.8.x. It should work well with both WordPress 2.0 and 1.5.2.
New features and fixes:

Fixed a bad bug in the duplicate renaming function. Also added a maintenance function to clean up filenames if you’ve uploaded a few with bad names.
Fixed the bug Nonni found […]

Fixing Photopress for WP 2.0

Wednesday, December 28th, 2005

I’m working on getting Photopress to work well with WordPress 2.0, but it’s not quite there yet. If you’d like to try what I’ve done so far, download photopress-wp2.zip. Note that you’ll need to disable the rich text editor for image inserts to work right.
Update: I’ve replaced the above file with a new version that […]

Photopress 0.8.4

Wednesday, December 21st, 2005

Nothing too exciting in this version, but if you’re using index.php-based permalinks you’ll want it.
New features and fixes:

index.php-based permalinks should work now. Thanks to SHRIKEE for spotting and testing this fix.
Added a mass resize function. Thanks to Roge for the idea and code.
Added an image rotate function.

Download Photopress 0.8.4: photopress.zip OR photopress.tar.gz
