Easy Gallery Module: (BETA)
Development and Programming
Now, I feel like a bit of a dick here, am I missing something? The readme mentions two parts that I do not see:
1) Copy “images/easy_gallery/” directory to “images/” directory
I have no directory called “images” in the root of the zip I downloaded. The only contents of the root of the installation zip: CHANGELOG.TXT [dir] jquery README.TXT [dir] system upload_test.html
9) Use the “upload_test.html” to test the “jquery/upload.php” script if its fully functioning. (“jquery/upload.php” is most difficult part to get working that’s what I created it in a way where this “upload_test.html” will report to you the problems encountered in running “jquery/upload.php” by editing the “jquery/config.inc.php”)
I don’t have any file called “config.inc.php” in the jqeury directory. The only contents of the jquery dir is:
easy_config.php easy_gallery_upload.php handlers.js interface.js jquery.easy_gallery.js jquery.js SWFUpload.css SWFUpload.js SWFUpload.swf
Am I really missing something here?
Read me might not have been updated. I don’t thinkyou need to worry about the jquery/config.inc.php thing anyways.
there use to be folders called images/easy_gallery in the download. Taken out now it seems. But just create a folder called easy_gallery in your images directory. Might even be able to call it something else now, can’t remember.
Also remember to set permissions on the /images/easy_gallery/ directory:
~/www/ee_root> chmod 777 images/easy_galleryI hope Wil Laxa is ok :O
Me too 😊
Well folks I think we did it. I think we officially scared Wil.lax off, from working on his module!
D’OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! This thing was the key to my problem! Haha. I hope he is ok!
Has anyone found anything that’s a good replacement for this? This was the answer to my dreams, but unfortunately looks like it’s game over for it.
Must find something that relates multiple images to a single entry and organizes them.. !
I am working on a pretty big project and this extension was going to save my ass.
OK. so now I am burned.
I could maybe get this thing to release if i teamed up with some developers, but my understanding of the EE API is still at novice level.
Yeah I saw that one, unfortunately I’m looking for something free 😊
Gallery extended doesn’t have the same functionality either. We really need someone to pick up the ball and continue running with this one. Obviously its a solution many are seeking, it’s worth making. Unfortunately I can only offer testing and suggestions - my understanding of the API is very limited.
Wow, when I saw this thread I thought “Christmas gift!!!” This is exactly what I am looking for and it would save me tons of time!
Now, is anybody using this extension? Does it work or is it still too “buggy” to use? If this thing works Wil.lax can expect a good donation from me 😊
I think we are still at the state where we don’t know if wil is still alive or not :\
But yes, it’s still quite buggy. If you are using it yourself then it’s quite usable, but i wouldn’t suggest letting a non techy client use it.
That is really too sad… this client is not that techy and besides, I can’t deliver “byggy solutions”. That would’t be good for my reputation. Then i guess it’s “Back to formula” as the Green Goblin would have put it… damn 😊
I’m really looking forward to seeing stable versions come from this. We have a huge need for a stable and usable Gallery, and EE’s gallery module just isn’t doing it for us right now…
