SMF Gallery

[dno]

I'm trying to get SMF Gallery 1.9.3 working. The install went fine on my local windows server, but I'm having a little trouble on my live windows server. It seems like it could be a permissions issue but I thought I had everything set.

I'm using SMF 1.1.6 on a windows server the mod appeared to have installed through the administration section but I have a couple of problems.

1. The gallery menu does not show up on the live server, it did on the local server.

2. Thumbnails show up as broken links on the live server, clicking through the image uploaded photo is there and shows up fine.

1. Check your language settings under admin -> Server Settings should be set to just english.  If you are using a custom theme other than the default requires an edit to the index.template.php of that theme.

2. Check that you have GD installed under Admin -> Support and Credits  GD should be listed there.

Am going to upgrade my smf gallery.

could i upload and just install 1.9.3 over my earlier version.

Will this disturb any images which is already loaded. Hope i have more that 4000 + images.

You can do but it will will create two buttons on index.template.php of the default theme and is not recommend. I would suggest to uninstall.
Uninstalling and installing does not modify any images or image gallery data.

No that was a very tough job.

If its going to be only two button, you give me some code to cut it down. Because, i hope uninstall and install will be a very risky work.

If you have time, will you do it for me . Provided you will have the access to our portal.

Thanks in Advance Vbgamer45.

Hi i have upgraded it ,
The works were really great and very impressive.

Will manually remove the button on index.template page.

You have to teach me how could i use ssi to show the last 5 and random 5 images inside my gallery page.

I have verified that english is my default language, I don't see any other languages listed. I'm using a variation of the default theme, a search for "gallery" showed some code differences, so that looks like it helps me understand where that menu is generated from. Once I get the thumbnail issue taken care of, I will make the menu changes.

I did verify that I have GD Listed (GD version: bundled (2.0.34 compatible))

If I had to go by what I see in the gallery folder on my local server it seems to require only a single image so the thumbnail is drawn from the same image as the full size photo. Based on what I see in the gallery_pic table a seperate thumbnail image should have been generated.

On the live server in the gallery folder the temp files show up which does not happen on the local server. If I had to guess those were suppose to be deleted which led me to believe it was a permission issue. The photo does upload, and can be viewed when you click through to it. My guess is it needed delete permissions set to remove the temp files and as far as I can tell delete permissions are set ( I could be wrong )

My guess is I would be better off running this stuff off Linux but due to the rest of the (non-rurm) site being ASP I don't have much interest in rewritting everything else to PHP.

I use windows servers myself to do all the testing. What files are created in gallery folder?

When image is uploaded the original file is uploaded and thumbnail image is created.

Has the same filename for the thumbnail image except with a thumb_ in front.

I would also check under Admin -> Forum errors for any related errors.

Any plans to add the ability to upload/view videos or will this be images only?

And on the forum gallery page, it shows like this "?>" on top left.

Any suggestion to clear it.

And earlier i was using 1.1.6, how could i import all photos and categories from it.

The uploaded images do not show.



Only things I have done is upload the gallery files and then install it and configured in the ACP. Anything else that is needed to be done?

I currently can only use it on the core theme, but am getting it for Grungy theme. Can anyone help me as to why its not showing?

[vbgamer45]

I would check that that admin cp that the gallery url and gallery path are correct.

Check that pictures are created in the gallery folder.

[chrisg2010]

What should the urls exactly be set to? when i installed it, they were already filled in.
