Kela,
Thanks for the heads up on the images and the error. The error is something I have not seen before so I will need to investigate. Have you tried different images?

Jed,
No screenshots, I am still working on those docs, but there is demo install at http://galleries.benjaminsterl.....xhibit.php with a log in of UN: test PW: test. The only thing that is not working on the test site is the upload, I had to lock that down but I am working setting up a better demo. Everything else is working tho.

Sorry about those errors, they were fixed in the final release of 2.0 but wordpress would not update their plugin system, they have now so can you update your install and let me know if the problems are still there?

February 20th, 2008 at 7:21 am | Link

22. Benjamin Sterling

Hey guys, I really do appreciate all your feedback. Let me see if I can address everything. For the encode.php issue, apparently WordPress lumps all the code together, so if you have BSG installed you will not see the encode error. And sadly all the testers I had had both installed. I commented the change, but WordPress is having issues again today, I will post a comment when it finally goes through.

But for those that don’t have both installed, do the following at line 62 of photoxhibit.php:

require_once(’common/inc/encode.php’);

@Michal: can you post the URL you are using for you feed so I can test it out?

@Kela: What browser are you using that you lose all the images when you “Add All” and how many images are there?

I also just noticed the editing issue, not sure what is wrong there, give me a few hours and I will post a fix.

Once again, I really appreciate your help.

23. Benjamin Sterling

Guys, I have version 2.0.1 posted that has the fixes for the encode error. I am working on the issue Kela pointed out.

25. Benjamin Sterling

Kela,
Thanks, I don’t use ICQ, but I can get that set up, having someone else to look at what I am doing is very helpful.

I just posted the editing fix, but sadly I am just noticing that there are a few things that are not working in Opera. I have been testing in it, but I must have done something recently that Opera does not like. The odd thing is that the remove all is working, but not that add all and it is more or less that same code. Let me see if I can figure that out quickly.

Hi Benjamin

Im still having the same problem that Cassie does.

There was an ajax error with a status of error and thrown error of undefined; When I try even to submit changes on the options tab.

Also Im geeting the same “There seemed to be an error in the execution of the URL provided; please select another one and try again. If problem presists, please submit a bug.” message when trying to read a local database.

I using the defalu wp-content/uploads folder and wp 2.3.3.

Like your plugin so much. good work!

two questions:
1.) If new pictures are uploaded to smugmug, do the also show up on the wordpress page? Since it’s a RSS feed the plugin is referencing to…

2.) “Edit Images” links lead me to an empty page within the admin page, just a paypal button showing up

31. Cassie

Hi Benjamin, Thanks so much for putting all this working into this plugin. So far, I’m still getting the exact same ajax errors I originally had when trying to add a new album or “locally from database”. WP shows that I have PX 2.0.2 installed. I’m using WP 2.3.3 and Firefox 2.0.0.12. I deactived the old one, and actived the new after it was installed like you recommended. Sorry I don’t have better news.
February 21st, 2008 at 7:51 am | Link

32. Porgan

Well Bad news.

I’ve tried with a clean version of wp v2.3.1 and PX v 2.0.2 and still getting those messages.

You can try my wp acessing iarteria.net/wp with user/pass: admin/admin. I don’t know if it’s going to be useful, but there it is.

Also, previously I was using pt-BR wp translation, media and wp meta plugins and a custom theme, but now, at iarteria, I’m not! It’s really a new installation.

I’d like to see it working and for exchange for your work, I’m offering mine to translate PX to portuguese-Brazilian. (Do you have multi-language support?)

thanks, P.

Just to mention it:

34. Benjamin Sterling

Fritz: you will need to reimport any new images if you add them to smugmug. I must have totally overlooks getting that page in, the edit image page, I can me so absent minded some times. I will look to get that in asap; it basically just give you the option to change alt text.

Cassie: I am really sorry it is not working for you, is it possible you can set me up with temp access, I think editor level would be fine. You can send me an email off list if you want. You may be having the same issue as Porgan and in turn may be an easy fix.

Porgan: Hell yeah I would love to have your help translating it. I started put things in place in hopes of finding some people to translate, but there is a ton of work that needs to be done for that. I can get that process start after these bugs are smashed.

On the bug note, I just looked at the site and can see exactly what the issue is, thank you for the link and access. I should have a fix for that later today if not first thing in the morning.

I really appreciate everyones feedback.
February 21st, 2008 at 11:38 am | Link

35. Fritz

Thanks for looking into the “edit images” thing.
It would be extremely useful to have the RSS actually even pulling new or altered images (after building the gallery)….the point of using feeds is that they feed, wouldn’t you agree.
This would make this pluging picture perfect!

38. jack

Hello Benjamin,

I'm not sure how it works when using images from a Picasaweb account. Do you then download all those images on your own server in order for the gallery/albums to work? Or does the actual traffic go via Picasaweb and the photos are fetched from Picasaweb?
I'm looking for a nice replacement for my current galleries (also using thickbox), but my 1000+ images take a lot of traffic, and therefore I have to pay extra each month :(.
My current gallery: http://www.spoenk.nl/fotografie/

Thanks!

Sorry, I missed your message, I posted v2.0.3 that "should" fix that problem, can verify? If the problem is still there, do you mind setting me up with editor access so I can see what the problem may be. Send me an email off list if you wish.

43. zkorosi

Hello Benjamin,

I'll test the v2.0.3 tonight. I tested it only on my localhost, so I will install it on a real test page and I'll see...

One more question: for future versions can you build in some basic design for the albums like on the demos or can you write some tutorials how can I easy customize them?

thx: Zozo

ps.: For Everybody: sorry about my poor English, my native is Hungarian :-P
February 22nd, 2008 at 4:55 pm | Link

44. Benjamin Sterling

zkorosi: Once a gallery is built, you can edit the styles for that gallery, just click on the edit styles link, but you are correct, I need to come up with a good tutorial on the basics. I was hoping to get the tabs at the top (how to) done by today, but things have been crazy.

Btw, your English is fine, since your native tongue is Hungarian, think you'd be interested in doing some translations? Porgan is going to do portuguese-Brazilian and would love to make this accessible to as many users as possible.

Porgan: I will touch base with you in the next couple of weeks to see if your are still interested in translations. I still need to put a few things together and fix a few bugs before this things gets out of control :).

February 22nd, 2008 at 5:49 pm | Link

46. zkorosi

What is the easiest way to translate your plugin? I never done before like this. Do you have string list or I have to search all of the text in the source code and translate them? Please help me to start! I need it on my native language, because it's very usefull. I have Picasaweb albums over 200 albums and 2000 pictures...

Thx! Zozo
February 22nd, 2008 at 6:13 pm | Link

47. Benjamin Sterling

zkorosi: The "something is very wrong here" is actually a test I put in the code to see if the server accepts a function that the plugin uses but I forgot to remove it. The bad news is that for the time being the plugin most likely will not work on your server. Please feel free to test it still because I put some code in there that "should" force the server to do what is needed, but it is not 100%. I working on a work around now that I hope to have up by the end of the weekend.

As for the translation part, I am still working on that list of strings and the other stuff that goes along with it. Give me some time on that and I will let you know when I have it set up.

February 23rd, 2008 at 8:45 am | Link

49. Benjamin Sterling

jdm: the plugin will work on both php4 and php5. There is an issue with servers having "allow_url_fopen" turned off, so I am working on an alternative. But you should be able to use the Album and the Local services.
February 23rd, 2008 at 12:03 pm | Link

50. Benjamin Sterling

Hey all, do to the large amount of people who do not have allow_url_fopen on I have made some major changes to how the data is grabbed from their respective services. Those that have been not able to use the plugin do to this error please download v2.0.4 and let me know if you fair better.

v2.0.4 also has a large amount of fixes that should make the overall experience better. I removed the need to have a SmugMug API and working on removing the need to have a Flickr API.

51. Ariel

Benjamin,

Thank you for this great plugin - it really beats all other gallery tools.

One topic though - When editing my gallery style (gvII) changes doesn't seem to
apply after clicking "process styles" .
(I am trying to narrow down the gallery box width).

Something I am doing wrong? Is there a different way to access the source and change it?

Thank you so much,

Ariel
February 25th, 2008 at 12:06 pm | Link

52. Benjamin Sterling

Ariel, thanks for the kind words. For the gvii one there are three widths you need to change:

#px3 .gvIIContainer{
#px3 .gvIIContainer .gvIIImgContainer{
#px3 .gvIIContainer .gvIIImgContainer .gvIILoader{
#px3 .gvIIContainer .gvIIHolder{

Replace #px3 with what ever you have the 3 is the id of the gallery I am testing. Yours will be different for each gallery you build.

Can you try each? I change the first one to 500 and the other three to 490 and it worked fine. If it does not work, can you let me know what browser you are using and what version you are using and I will take a look at it in that browser.
February 25th, 2008 at 2:58 pm | Link

53. Ariel

Hi Benjamin,

Thank you so much for the prompt reply.

Well, the problem seems to have something to do with the AJAX I guess, as after hitting "process" I don't see any real change in the code section; or the post; and if I refresh the page, my #px# settings are back to default :/

I am using FF 2.0x, running xamp build on my machine.

-A
February 25th, 2008 at 4:10 pm | Link

54. zkorosi

Thank you, Benjamin!

It works now on my host - admin.joekmotorsport.hu -, no more error message.

Can you build in a feature to change the sort of the pictures with one click? The default PicasaWeb setting is sort by date, so the older pics goes to the bottom of the gallery. How can I change it to reverse?

One more idea to the wishlist: please add some extra format options, like colors, text format, etc. to help the basic users like me. I can't make beauty galleries (jqGalScroll) because I don't know what have to change in the css.

I want something like on the demo page of this plugin. If you (or somebody else) have time, can you write me step-by-step how can I do it?

I think bug found: sometimes when I try to modify the options the gallery lose the pictures and I have to start the whole procedure from the begining. It's absolutely random, but the same on my local and on my live host.

Still wait for the language file... ;-)

Thx: Zozo

@ariel: Sorry you are having issues, really not sure what to say, it has been tested in all the major browsers and no issue. Let me see if I can set up a test machine with xamp and see if there is a difference in the php calls that are made.

Are you seeing any errors at all?

@zkorosi: To change/rearrange the images, just click and drap the thumbnail to the position on want while on the build/edit page. As for a one click reverse order, I guess there would be a need for that, I will make a note to follow up on this idea; other people may like that feature too.

When you say "please add some extra format options, like colors, text format," I am assuming you have already seen the edit styles area and feel that does not work out well for you. I was playing around with the idea to be able to click on an element to change its styles via dropdowns and radio/check buttons, but that would be in the "like-to-have" list. Not sure if I can code all that, maybe if I had someone to focus only on that feature it could get done. I will also not that idea and follow up on it.

I am working on a screencast to show how to use the edit styles page and provide links to a bunch of resources so people will know what these codes mean.

I think that is a true bug, someone is having that issue more then once so I am trying to recreate it and then fix it. I will put that at the top of my list.

As for the language files, I am still working on that and will devote more time when I have these bugs smashed, but I do want to get it done asap so I will be in touch.

@Ricardo: Any specs on your server? It looks like the file was uploaded but the folder was not created. What is your url and name of the album you are creating so I can look at your folder structure of the upload folder?

@Larry: very good catch, I have both installed so I was not seeing those images not being there.

Thanks Benjamin! Your plugin is very interesting. I had some performance issues but I think I was looking to accomplish a different task. I have been testing PhotoXhibit with the previous version, 2.0.4, so the new version may help my performance issues. The part of PhotoXhibit that I found slow was building the gallery. It seemed to take a long time before the Flickr photos populated the screen. My problem appears to be like Stefan's problem.

Probably the most important issue for me was the way I was going to insert a single photo into a post. This has been my most common task in the past but is not the objective of photoxhibit. The Flickr Manager method of double clicking on the photo was the method I preferred of the browser based methods I tried. Having said all of that I probably will end up using the Flickr4Writer plugin since I use Live Writer for most of my posts. It's interface is simple to use.

I still have a need to show galleries and slide shows on my blogs on an infrequent basis. I did not find any of the Flickr gallery plugins have met my needs so I will probably manually code up the galleries for the time being. I am sure that the next time I look at the plugins I will be pleasantly surprised. Keep up the good work!

Hey, this plugin is great, but I am having one issue with jQuery Gallery Viewer. It is not posting the alt text on the pictures when you open them up. When I first built the gallery and clicked on the picture, it showed the text. When I applied the gallery to the post, it didn't. I went back to manage the gallery, the text wasn't showing up. I am pulling the pictures off of Picasa, and viewed the gallery in both Firefox and IE. If this makes any sense to you, let me know, thanks!

Make sure this size is large enough, you won't be able to upload an image whose file size is bigger than this value.

I have double-checked that wp-content/uploads exists and has standard permissions (755). Checking the directory after I get the error, the file wasn't uploaded. When I create an album, it doesn't appear to make a directory for that album--should it? If it's failing at album creation, it's failing silently.

I'm using Firefox 2.0.0.12. I haven't yet tested it in another browser.

Please let me know any other settings you'd like me to confirm.

Bug.

I created an album by uploading photos. That went fine. I went to Build Gallery, and when I get to "select a thumbnail size" of 100 x 100 and press the "Get Photos" button, I get this error:

"There seemed to be an error in the execution of the URL provided; please select another one and try again. If problem presists, please submit a bug."

Good luck. This is the second slideshow plugin I've tried today. On to the third!

Brad,
Don't move on too quickly; can you provide me with some more information, I am working on some other fixes and can include a fix for your issue if I know what it is. How many images have you uploaded to the Album? I am assuming the Album is in the Album Manager and images are shoulding up, is that correct?

@spanning and nita, it is definitely a permissions issue, and I am working on getting a fix up tonight for this, sorry for the issue, will post asap.

Looks like a very promising plug in although I am getting that 404 error that others mentioned. Where can I go to downloadthe latest version?

And then I just wanted to know if there is a way to upload in bulk, instead of 1 at a time?

Thanks so much
February 29th, 2008 at 5:29 am | Link

71. Benjamin Sterling

Roxane: 2.0.6 is the newest release and you can get it here. When you go to upload, click the upload file button and in the dialog that pops up, just drag and select all the ones you want or hold down ctr and click all the ones you want. The max I uploaded at one time was twenty, it took a bit of time, but it worked ok.

nita,spanning: is it possible one of you would be able to give me temp access to your install so I can see it in action? Send me an email off list if you can.

Also, have you tried force clearing your cache, sounds like the JS files are still cached, but I could be wrong. On a PC, you would hold down the CTRL button and hit F5, on a MAC I think it is Apple + F5.

Hey Ben,
It's my understanding that the gallery should pull the captions from the pictures and display them on each picture in jQuery Gallery viewer when you click on it. Here's the link to my gallery http://www.campfirebrewery.com/?page_id=38 and here's the link to my actual Picasa gallery where everything is being pulled from http://picasaweb.google.com/ca.....AWitbier02 One the gallery was first created, them images had the captions, now they all seem to have disappeared. Hope you're understanding now whats happening. Thanks.

Ben, so you know, I removed that gallery from my site, not because the captions weren't working, but it didn't fit my new layout. But I will be happy to test it out again if you think you have a fix. I am now using Thickbox, and the captions are properly displaying with that one.

Great add-on! However I'm having serious problems getting the images to make use to the JQuery plug-ins.

Hi Ben,

That's cool to hear! I was able to fix it by copy/pasting the JS scripts from the gallery "preview" section of the admin page into the header.php file. I had to do this for admin.php as well because I couldn't create an album. I did somethin' funky to it though and now when you make a gallery/album it makes two, lol.

Are there any plans to add maybe a comment feature to each pic?
March 2nd, 2008 at 12:25 am | Link

85. Benjamin Sterling

Hey all, Just posted version 2.0.8 which has fixes for the “Locally” service, incorrect path for jquery, checks to make sure GD library is installed and added back in the alt text editor for galleries.

spongebob: That was an option I had in the earlier release and the feedback I got on it was that it was really pointless. Most of these bugs should be worked out quickly, but for the most part people only seem to have very minimum issues with it compared to the total downloads. Thanks for your feedback, really appreciate any and all feedback that will make this better.

Michael: Most of the services that are installed - flickr, smugmug, picasa - have a comment system and if there is a need and can look at implementing something but I would need feedback on how it would be used to get an idea of the approach. I am planning a comment system for images uploaded via the album, but that is a way off right now till I have the foundation firm.

Hi Ben, I was wondering if there was a way that after clicking on the thumbnail and having it show up the original picture, a user can click on it and it will open up a new page?
March 2nd, 2008 at 2:10 pm | Link

90. Benjamin Sterling

sponge: I think I understand what you are asking, you have a thumbnail and when clicked it brings up thickbox/lightbox thingy and after that, you want it to be able to open in a new window. As it stands now, no, there is nothing built into any of those plugins except for the Gallery Viewer with will provide a link in the large image view.

I am adding an options for a - in my mind - a none feature where you can build your gallery, but the image will just open in a new window, ie. there will not be an javascript interaction. Had some emails asking for it.

Hey all, I am working on a 2.1 release that will add some more gallery plugins (ie lightbox, thickbox), if anyone has any suggestions for others to be addes, please let me know. Also, I am looking for a list of other features you may want.

Also, I am looking to drum up more support for this plugin, so if you feel like linking back to this page via a post or blog roll or rate the plugin over at Wordpress (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/photoxhibit/) that would be all too awesome.

92. David Jacques-Louis

enjamin, this is the best gallery plugin. For the last 9 years I've tested... some 20-40, coppermine included, flash based - but this one is what I was looking for. So big thanks.

1. You can not go back in lightbox view - in smugmug there is the back option as well and sure it's for the not so savvy and those who want to take a closer look to a photo they've missed.
1.1) Something like http://mjijackson.com/shadowbox/ would do - 1 2 3 (you can browse to the photo you want to) or can go Previous Next Close. (Resized, Draggable mode - few different nice ideas as well)
1.2) Semi transparent Previous Info Next buttons on the phot itself http://demo.oscandy.com/slight...../demo.html

2. Can it be made, so that diffent galleries doen't mix on the same page?

3. Like the flickr-rss default plugin preview size - 75x75 or misc - one can't make it on his own, right? http://www.sendspace.com/file/llmo8p

4. Where can I edit the css class of, e.g., the preview picture css in the, e.g., lightbox plugin? I would wan't to add a polaroid css effect (like http://www.balupton.com/sandbox/jquery_lightbox/ has) to the small thumbnails, but can't figure it out. (because now we can choose the styles of the big pictures shown, but not edit the thumbnails - only 2 preset style for them and nothing more)

5. Insert a new gallery tab in the page / post edit wysiwyg window (inside the insert picture icon), so there is a dynamic dropdown of the availible galleries (I'm using the web for 8 years, but I believe, that it will be a real problem for a big auditory - otherwise I doen't see why it has not become a top 5 must-have wp plugin allready). Another nice thing would be a way to position the gallery (top right, left middle - just like in the shylock adsense plugin - I guess you could just reuse that code).

6. Does big pictures have a preloader? (nice ideas at http://www.ajaxrain.com/tagclo.....mp;page=2)

7. Nice top of the window, otherwise badly rewritten lightbox (http://test.thecodecentral.com.....htbox.html)

8. A tour, carousel or slideshow effect (the last one could be like http://googleajaxsearchapi.blo.....ntrol.html - the best one is http://slideshow.triptracker.net/ with a semi-dynamic effect on static pictures)

9. Additional .js effects (http://homepage.mac.com/yukiku.....limbox_ex/,
http://www.clearbox.hu/ 2. ClearBox galériák SlideShow funkcióval)

Bellow "Click in the image and see the jQuery lightBox plugin in action."

The cycle (new window) opens a photo not in a new window - it opens the .jpg - it's no good for SEO. Can it be made that every picture opens in a .html, where appropriate (so that the is filled with the name of the photo at least?
Is there any difference betwenn Thickbox (new window) and cycle - some screenshots would be nice at well in the admin panel :)

Just in case you hadn't checked it out... I tend to like lightbox 2 over the first version (which was still great)

Hi. Your plug-in looks great, seems to do exactly what I need, however I am having some issues. Not sure if I am missing something. When I go to set up options I have no API option for Flickr. Thought that may have been removed so I ignored it and went to create a gallery. When I attempt to build a gallery I get a quick error message saying I will need a flickr api installed, and when I click the get images it states Loading Images but they never load. Any ideas? Was hoping this would fulfill my need to access private photos from flickr in a gallery format. I can give you access if you want to see our internal blog... thanks in advance for all your hard work. Liked the videos. Wish it would work!

@Da5id; thanks for your feedback, yeah I was looking at that version of lightbox the other day and trying to figure out what version is best, I may just install all and let the end user select which one they like best.

@Zozo, I am building a punch list of things I need to check before I post an update and obviously that is one to add, thanks. Thanks for submitting to word-press.hu, I really appreciate it. I am working on getting the plugin ready for translations.

@Troy, I am assuming you have version 2.0.9, is this correct? If you can set me up with editor access, I would like to see what the issue is so I can fix it quickly, you can email me at benjamin.sterling [at] kenzomedia.com.

Local option appears to function. Okay, very weird. I work on a Mac (mostly) using Safari or Firefox and it doesn't work in either browser, however when I use a PC with Explorer it appears to function as expected. I am doing a test real quick, still can't see the field for the Flickr API but I am hoping this resolves it. Could it be so simple, lol?
March 3rd, 2008 at 6:36 pm | Link

106. Benjamin Sterling

@David: Let me try to address each of your points:

1. The lightbox is not coded in a way that made it easy to alter the path of the image if a users WP install is not in the root directory. This is something I fixed and will show up in the next release.

1.1: I am actually looking to implement that gallery plugin.

2. I saw your video and I see the issue with the lightbox, this should not happen and I will fix shortly.

3. I don't understand what you are saying with this point, can you elaborate?

4. Once a gallery is built, you can click on the "Edit Styles" links and you can edit the css that way.

5. I am actually working on this, but sadly it is not as easy as it should be. But I am hoping to get this done as soon as I can.

6. Each gallery plugin as their own preloading system that will show a preloading animate image.

7. Yeah, it is nice, but I will leave advance styling up to you people.

8. I was trying to implement the triptacker gallery code, but there is no way to do it that will stick with my ideals on how these plugins should work. Meaning, it uses complete javascript to build out the gallery and will not be 508 compliant and SEF. I am working on putting together other galleries similar.

9. I like the way clearbox looks, I will see what I can do about getting this one in.

10. I am not sure about adding video and audio support, I will make note of it and revisit after I get some other elements implemented.

11. That gallery plugin already has the hover effect implemented in the WP plugin, am I missing what you are saying?
March 3rd, 2008 at 10:58 pm | Link

107. Benjamin Sterling

@Troy: can you let me know what version of the plugin you are using and if you have uploaded all of the current files? The error you are has been disabled in the most recent release so I can only imagine that not all the current files are uploaded. Can you verify?

Like the flickr-rss default plugin preview size - 75x75 or misc - one can't make it on his own, right? http://www.sendspace.com/file/llmo8p - What I mean is that admin usually need some set sizes and they can easily be represented in a dropdown box. We have the choise from 100x100 and 800px right now. What I suggest is to have in the dropdown 50x50, 75x75 and maybe 200x200 as well.

4. Once a gallery is built, you can click on the "Edit Styles" links and you can edit the css that way.
I guess for the nerest months it will do.

8. I was trying to implement the triptacker gallery code, but there is no way to do it that will stick with my ideals on how these plugins should work. Meaning, it uses complete javascript to build out the gallery and will not be 508 compliant and SEF. I am working on putting together other galleries similar.
But indeed, the triptacker is amazing. Forget about the copliancies :) Which one do you mean by "putting together other galleries similar" - I guess I've seen them all and nothing like triptacker.

11. That gallery plugin already has the hover effect implemented in the WP plugin, am I missing what you are saying?
It has, but only in that .js. What I would like to is to have that effect not only in that .js, but to reuse it in the other .js galleries you offer.

3. I mean Album Thumbnail Size 100x100 - add some more in the dropdown.
12. Gallery style dropdown box sometimes gets lost. http://www.sendspace.com/file/y62vqy
13. You can't edit text for no images in none of the languages, it just doen't submit anything http://www.sendspace.com/file/1p9y3x
14. Nowhere I see the name of the album I'm editing.
15. The SWF DEBUG box too big, does not fits above the fold.

@vera: I would suggest that you grab the most resent release which is 2.0.9 and has a ton of bug fixes over the 2.0rc2

@David: For point 3, not sure why I left it 75x75, I will add the other sizes. For point 8, I will see what needs to be altered in the script to get it to work, but no promises. I will creating a post shortly with a list of scripts that are being added. No ETA on that tho. For point 11, the point of PhotoXhibit is to make it easy for end users to take their photos and blend them with any number of javascript based photo gallery plugins, so if there is suggestions for improvements on one particular js plugin, I can pass it on to the original developer. For point 15, that swf debug is being left in for debug purposes only, so it does not need to be above the fold. I will be removed once I am comfortable with the way the uploader is working.

@David: for point 13, what you should be seeing is what is in this screen shot http://wordpress.org/extend/pl.....shot-4.jpg So there is a js bug somewhere. What version are you working with again? Also, for point 12, nothing in that drop down means that install did not work correctly. Can you deactive and reactivate to see if that helps?

@Yuletide: That error means that you do not have enough memory on your server to process the images. When on the overview page, what does "System memory limit" say next to it?

I had to edit the lightBox.js file, because you had the wrong paths to the Next, Previous, Close, etc. buttons.

This bug is still in the code. Please edit it in the next version...

Thx! Zozo

Yeah, I thought that was it, but then I saw that the system memory limit is 40MB... shouldn't that be more than enough? Also, max post size is 8mb, but it error'd even when uploading (or importing from attachments or flickr or whatever) only one image, and a smallish one at that (800kb)

Yuletide, I have a hunch what it may be, can you email me the image you are trying to upload? Is it happening to all images?

@Benjamin
I use 2.0.9 and have reactivated it for several times.
I've truncated the mysql database (cleared all the entries) - should it be a problem?
All the files uploaded.

Using version 2.3.3

SWF DEBUG: Event: uploadProgress: File ID: SWFUpload_0_0. Bytes: 791128. Total: 791128
SWF DEBUG: Event: uploadError: HTTP ERROR : File ID: SWFUpload_0_0. HTTP Status: 403.
SWF DEBUG: Event: uploadComplete : Upload cycle complete.
Error Code: HTTP Error, File name: 100_0001.JPG, Message: 403

Getting an error 403 -- upload director is CHMOD 777.

Any ideas on how to resolve -- I can't seem to upload any pictures into the albums

@David J: Yeah, the px_plugin table holds all the needed info for each plugin. Not sure how code savvy you are, but if you edit line 57 of common/inc/px.php to:

PLAIN TEXT

PHP:

'plugins_version' => "1.1",

And then activate the plugin again, that should force WP to re-execute the needed code.

@David H: I am actually working with someone else with the same error, when you try to upload via the WP's default upload functions, do you have any issues? You are using the most recent version? v2.0.9 as of this post.

121. David Jacques-Louis

Ok, will try. Do I need to change 1.0 to 1.1 only in one line of code? Leave the rest unchanged?

// database tables
'albums' => $wpdb->prefix . "px_albums",
'albums_version' => "1.1",

'albumPhotos' => $wpdb->prefix . "px_albumPhotos",
'albumPhotos_version' => "1.0",

'galleries' => $wpdb->prefix . "px_galleries",
'galleries_version' => "1.1",

'photos' => $wpdb->prefix . "px_photos",
'photos_version' => "1.0",

'plugins' => $wpdb->prefix . "px_plugins",
'plugins_version' => "1.0",

Hi again Ben. Your 2.0.8 fix worked like a charm. I noticed when you make a post using the code to show the album thumbnails it shows up ok, but if you try to show it by clicking on the post "category" it shows up as code... hope this shows you what I mean:

123. Benjamin Sterling

@David J.: It was only tested quickly, but yes, changing only that one line should only execute that code that is needed. If that is not working as planned, I can email you the sql code to insert everything (assuming you are using phpmyadmin or something similar)

@Michael: That is because of the excerpts are create via wordpress. Don't know a fix other then to say that 1) Add at least 100 words before the gallery code or 2) I set the plugin not to execute against excerpts. A quick fix is #1, but I think I will implement #2 and get that posted asap.

@Michael: I did not realize that you already had text, after the text put < ! --more--> (with out spaces) and the should cut things off nicely for excerpts.

125. Benjamin Sterling

Hey all, I need some quick feedback on the excerpt/category and archive page issue where wordpress will print out the code. What would preferred, 1) returning nothing, ie. replace [photoxhibit=2] with no text, 2) return a short message say something along the lines of "You are viewing an excerpt that contains a photogalery, please view post to see the gallery", 3) just return the [photoxhibit=2] or 4) just tell people that they need to add text and a
