A new gallery manager : Album

[dam]

Hello all.

I know that there are a lot of projects of modules regarding photo galleries.
Nevertheless, here comes a new one : Album.
This one is simple, fully integrated, uses customisable templates, and can be called in any page.
It's not the big features as usual, but it is usefull for me. Perhaps will it be usefull for you.

Enjoy

Do you have any error message ?

Actually my site is in contruction.
Do you mean an example of admin interface or public interface ?

[dam]

OK, I'm sorry for this bug. 
A late untested correction prevented to save new albums.
It's corrected now. Please upgrade to 0.1.1

Good work , encore

Same problem as your other module , put error_reporting(0) or put isset($var) because i get a lot of Notice.

Code: Select all

Notice: Undefined variable: pictureid in c:\fardeen_work\www\canadianwinter.ca\cmsmadesimple-0.12\cmsmadesimple\modules\Album\lib.browsepictures.php on line 118

Notice: Undefined variable: currentpic in c:\fardeen_work\www\canadianwinter.ca\cmsmadesimple-0.12\cmsmadesimple\modules\Album\lib.browsepictures.php on line 120

Merci et continue comme ca

Thank you for your feedback. I'm sorry but I can't modify my test site configuration. And as far as I know, some warning are not displayed when I test it.
I'll include a correction in next release.
If you have more warnings, please let me know.

[fardeen]

You can change your config with error_reporting to see all the Notice .

There are a lot more Notice in all PHP pages. I don't have the time to test all of them, sorry.

Tu preferes parler francais ?

Dam,

Can you list the features of the module?  what can it do?  How are images uploaded? Is there an ability to add captions to images? Is there a functionality to sort images?

Actually, it would be great to create a comparison chart for all gallery solutions in cmsmadesimple.

Of course, Katon :
Album is a way to show galleries of pictures. Those pictures are to be uploaded by CMSMS standard picture manager : Album don't provide a (redundant) way to do so.

You can create albums, which contain pictures.
These pictures can have a thumbnail (standard picture manager thumbnail by default), a title, and a comment (written with rich text editor).

Albums can also have a comment and a thumbnail. Moreover, you can specify which template an album uses, or how many columns or rows per page will be shown

You can manually change pictures order in an album, or albums order in the module.

When called in a page, module can show all albums, just some albums, or just one album.

There is a default template, but you can set up your own.
In a template, you can access album information (including all included pictures), or current picture information (if selected).
You can also access some shortcuts (next page, last page, next picture, first picture and so on...)

Did I answer your question ?

[katon]

Thanks for the quick response.  From what you have said, this module is very powerful.  Some more questions:

Is this an integrated third party solution or a module developed for cmsmadesimple?
If I upload images with FTP, with the module generate thumbnails for them automatically?
If I upload images with a standard image manager, where and when do I add image captions?
Is manual sorting of images implemented in the admin area?

Thanks for your replies in advance.

First I would like to say, that this (I think) is a great module. Simple, but do what it has to do.

I've just made my first album with this module, and it works like a charm.

Thanx
