SMF Media Gallery (SMG) - 2.0.5 is out! (December 2)

[ShowMeYourStyle]

Hi guys, could you help me out?

I installed gallery using manual install (due to server probs)
everything seems fine, i can access it ina dmin panel etc.
however when I am using index.php?action=mgallery its redirecting me to my forums, have a look:
http://inplaywepro.com/index.php?action=mgallery

What did I do wrong?

Are you sure all your files were edited correctly? In your case, I'm sure index.php was not edited. Maybe other files weren't, either.

Just found a bug with the BBC...

I added more BBC to my BB and It went over my smileys...

Hi! I tried installing the latest version of Aeva Media from the SVN and I had a few problems. I recompressed the file and tried to upload it but the installer told me that the package seemed empty. I followed the instructions and uploaded the uncompressed folder to the packages-folder instead. I then used the package browser to install the mod.

When I tried this I got the following error message:

You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'TO smf_aeva_albums' at line 1
File: /.../Packages/temp/db_aeva.php
Line: 181

(this is from the 106 revision since I tried again with an older one)

Is there anything I can do to get it to work or do you need to know anything else to fix an eventual bug?

As far as I can see the server uses MySql 5.0.67-community, PHP 5.2.9 and Apache 2.0.63.

Thanks!

@Vyache> It's a SMF bug, not AM.
See my bug report: http://dev.simplemachines.org/mantis/view.php?id=3999
It was fixed already, will be apparent in SMF2 RC3 once it's released. (Hopefully not too late.)

@morbug> My bad, really, this time it's an AM bug. I forgot to add "RENAME" in the query. I'd rewritten it to be compatible with other database systems (see here and my answers below), but obviously I missed that. Hopefully you can retry with revision 112 without any issue.

rev 112
! Oops! The Postgresql/Sqlite installer fix actually broke on all database systems. (db_aeva.php)

Thank you very much, after a quick check it seems to be working perfectly.

I just installed.
When i want to create an album for me, it says:
CHMOD'd all mgal_data files to 7777, not 0777 and i get this error:

This album's directory couldn't be properly created, please make sure mgal_data and mgal_data/albums are chmodded to 0777

and i did a hard refresh and cache clearing... help!!!

[morbug]

Sorry to bother you again but there is one thing that didn't work for me in the old SMG or in the test version of AM: Mass Uploads. Whenever I try to change folder in the open file dialog or when I try to actually upload the files, Flash crashes and (more often than not) takes the browser with it. This is on Safari, Firefox & Chrome on a Mac with OS X 10.6.2.

Are there a workaround for this? I'm "migrating" an old site so it would be a nice feature to have working.

Thanks again!

I am having problems with 2.0.5.  When I orginally did the install it seemed to go fine, except when I tried to install a default album I got an error message.
This album's directory couldn't be properly created, please make sure mgal_data and mgal_data/albums are chmodded to 0777

Checked that and they were ok, but as I continued to poke around I found that a number of the required files were not where they were supposed to be.

I started checking the error log on the hosting service, and when I got a message that some file was not there, manually installed it, sometimes I had to manually install entire directories.

Now I am at a point where there are no more messages in the error log, but I am still getting the same error message that originally started me working on this, IE the dreaded CMOD message,

At this point I am kinda up a stump, tried uninstalling and reinstalling, no luck.  Wondering if the next step should be to attempt a manual install, or just use the SMF Hack gallery package.

Will be grateful for any pointers/sugestions

Hi, I looked through the thread but didn't find anything about this: the "Posted Date" on my pictures are all off by one month. I just posted some 150 pictures today (22 December 2009) and all of them state I posted on 22 November 2008!

How can I get the avatar of the commenter in the comment of a item?

[eg208]

How to load random user picture using SSI.php, thanks

@kc> It's 0777, not 7777. 0 means it's an octal number. Base 8, not base 10. Anyway. Chmodding to 0755 also works.

@morbug> It's a known issue in Mac OS, apparently. Some users reported that it was fixed by upgrading (or downgrading?) their Flash plugin.

@jay> I don't know.

@atheos> It's not "off", it's the correct date. Of when you took the picture. If you want to have the upload date, which is less relevant to me (because they're already sorted by upload date = id, in the first place), you can disable the Exif date feature in the admin area.

@angelotus> They're already there.... Ain't they?

@eg208> In Aeva Media you can do it in three lines:

Code Select Expand

loadLanguage('Aeva');
@include_once($sourcedir . '/Aeva-Subs.php');
echo preg_replace('~<div class="highslide-maincontent">.*?</div>.*?</div>~', '', aeva_listItems(aeva_getMediaItems(0, 3, 'RAND()'), false, '', 1)), '

The preg_replace is only there if you're not adding highslide headers to your page.
The 3 is the number of items. The 1 is the number of items per horizontal row. That's the thing that shows up on noisen.com's homepage.

[Angelotus]

Hi, no, the avatars are not there

[Nao 尚]

Sure they are.

Hi,

I have installed the Media gallery 2.0.5 into SMF 1.1.11

Is there a way to integrate it into the main button bar, the message posting window and the user profile page ?

Thanks,
Gil

[Nao 尚]

- User profile page: it's already there.. Check the menu / sidebar.

- Main button bar: what do you mean? The main menu? It's there, unless you're using a custom theme --> you'll have to edit the theme yourself.

- Message posting window: the feature exists in the Foxy! add-on. Check out my signature.

Aeva Media 1.0 Alpha is out!

Since it's an official release, you can expect more stability than with earlier unofficial releases. It's still not perfect though, or at least, it hasn't been tested enough to be sure it won't kill your server and make you run screaming. You've been warned

@kc> It's 0777, not 7777. 0 means it's an octal number. Base 8, not base 10. Anyway. Chmodding to 0755 also works.

I know. I just did that on purpose to allow lit. EVERYTHING. Now, how I get it to work again, I want to use this!
