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

[Randy A.]

You have to open up permissions for each membergroup.

Hey Dragoon,

Yes, we have GD2 installed (bundled)

the mgal_data directory is 777
the dir_1 directory is 777 (don't know what that directory is...)
I just added a temp directory, chmod 777

Still the same effects...   and when I set up a new directory on the front end, no directory is ever created on the server....




-edit!- I found the problem....   When the system set this mod up, it did not create either the tmp or the albums directory. Manually adding those solved the upload issues.

One suggestion Dragoon:   in the readme, include a list of the directories that are supposed to be created (and are required)?

Ahso.....I had exactly the same symtoms that you had, will try your suggestions and see how things work out.   Thanks.

Dragoon, any plans of making a watermark feature?

[Bigguy]

That would be a nice feature.

Play nice ;-) while correct it was a somewhat unhelpful reply. However, it did make me realise why I have the same problem and I'll help the other new admins out there.

admin->members->permissions->general permissions
"modify" the group you wish to give gallery access to
In there is an "SMF Media Gallery" set of permissions.

Please you made me look for it, this opens up a whole new world of permission lockdown tyranny, my board members might just hate you for it

That should've automatically been created as they came. But nevertheless, glad you have it solved .

Maybe later but not now.

Does the fix here works?

[Angelotus]

Dragooon, thanks for this great mod! Are there any SSI function available for this mod, such as grabbing the recent files, comments etc for my frontpage?

[Dragooon]

It is possible, there are some functions in Subs-MGallery.php although they require initialising of gallery first
like

Code Select Expand

global $sourcedir, $galurl;
require_once($sourcedir . '/Subs-MGallery.php');
// Load gallery
loadMGal_Settings();
$items = getMediaItems(5);
foreach($items as $item)
echo '<div><a href="',$galurl,'sa=viewitem;id=',$item['id'],'">',$item['item_title'],'</a></div>';
This is just an example, see all the function at the end of Subs-MGallery.php

[Angelotus]

Thanks Dragooon!

[Angelotus]

Dragooon, just a question (and a request), is it possible to combine the media gallery with the profile pictures function of the ultimate profile mod? So if I upload a pic into my profile picturealbum, it also is shown in the useralbum of your mod?
That would incredibly awesome if that will be possible!!!!

[Dragooon]

Well it is possible to modify the ultimate profile's function to automatically add the the file to the album.

[Angelotus]

How can I do that?

[Dragooon]

Currently I don't know and because of my exams I won't be working on it either .

[Angelotus]

What are you doing here then, go studie! Good luck with your exams!

[Angelotus]

Maybe you can help me with this:

After uploading a pic in a useralbum this error occurs:

Code Select Expand

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 's_Album/Dir_1','5')' at line 4

5.     Execute Modification     ./Sources/ManagePermissions.php     Test failed

before I install.. why is this so?

[Dragooon]

Looks like it is clashing with an already installed mod, try uninstall all your mods and install this one.
