Discussion & Troubleshooting / Zip files will no longer download

« on: December 06, 2007, 05:25:06 PM »

Our 4images site has had a number of zip files uploaded with the capability to download in the past without a problem. Zip files will no longer download for some reason. I have the extensions set up in the control panel, the media directory under templates also has the designated zip.html file... but we recently moved to a new PHP5 server. What could have happened? Everything else downloads perfectly fine with 4images. The zip download just hands and eventually times out.

Code: [Select]

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Using version 1.7.4

Discussion & Troubleshooting / PHP5 Compatability - Let's discuss

« on: October 01, 2007, 07:36:24 PM »

 
My host recently emailed me telling me that they will no longer be supporting PHP4 and will be upgrading to PHP5 / MySQL5.

How compatible is 4images with PHP5? I have dome a few searches and have turned up a number of complications. Should I begin to look for new software for my gallery that is more compatible? What are my options here?

Cheers!

Nick

EDIT: I found this post - http://www.4homepages.de/forum/index.php?topic=12902.msg69262#msg69262

Says 1.7.2 is compatible. I am running 1.7.3 so I assume now that things should be okay.

Mods & Plugins (Requests & Discussions) / hiding comments from users

« on: August 01, 2006, 10:23:13 PM »

I am curious how to hide comments from registered users. Currently we have an admin staff who would like to see registered users comment on artwork in our gallery. Only we want to keep those comments hidden from other users and visible only to admins.

I have attempted to keep "READ COMMENT" Admin only, unfortunately this disables the option for users to comment on a picture at all. The "Post Comment" option is set to "Registered Users" unfortunately it will not allow the registered users to comment since the comment box is hidden.

Any insight on this?

Discussion & Troubleshooting / Very odd problem - Passwords stop working

« on: July 28, 2006, 08:58:42 PM »

Since setting up the 4Images 1.7.2 gallery for the company I work for, many of our users had been emailing me telling me that their passwords no longer worked. I thought they may have accidentally reset them via their control panel.

Today, my very own password stopped working. I had to log into the site with another administrator user and reset mine. Now it works again.

Does anyone have any idea what this could be? I have never experienced this before. Random user passwords just stop working?
This is not good and I need to find a resolution to this ASAP.

Many thanks for all of the help you have given me in the past as well as for any insight you may be able to give me now.

Mods & Plugins (Requests & Discussions) / Tiling a background - Any input?

« on: July 19, 2006, 08:40:57 PM »

I did a search for this but only came up with a thread of some guy being rude about it and not getting an answer in return.

I was hoping it would be possible to set a tiled background behind everything. I have attached a screenshot with the area I am talking about.



I currently have the tile image located in /templates/default/images/tile.gif

If anyone has any input, I would be very greatful.

Thank's in advance for any input you have for me.

Mods & Plugins (Requests & Discussions) / Trying to add a new page - help please.

« on: July 12, 2006, 05:54:55 PM »

I am trying to add a link to the top right user box called "Resource Links."

I want to be able to click this link and have the contents show up like everything else does in the main window.

It is all basic html in the page. So far, this is what I have for the page itself(actual content omitted to save space on here).

Code: [Select]

<form method="post" action="{url_search}">
  <table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="1">
    <tr>
      <td class="head1">
        <table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0">
          <!--DWLayoutTable-->
          <tr>
            <td width="1390" height="27" valign="top" class="head1">Resource Links</td>
          </tr>
          <tr>
            <td height="162" valign="top" class="row1">
<font size="3"><br>
INSERT TEXT HERE YADDA YADDA
</td>
            </tr>
        </table>
      </td>
    </tr>
  </table>
</form>

I had edited the lang/end/main file under the MISC Section to include:

Code: [Select]

$lang['resourcelinks'] = "Resource Links";

I had put the resourcelinks.html file under /templates/default/

I then edited the user_logininfo.html file to add:

Code: [Select]

&raquo; <a href="{url_resourcelinks}">{lang_resourcelinks}</a>


What am I doing wrong here? I am positive I am missing some crucial steps in this.

Mods & Plugins (Requests & Discussions) / A few questions on modifying

« on: July 07, 2006, 06:43:31 PM »

There are a few things I want to do with my gallery. The first is to change the name of "Lightbox." to "Photo Gallery." I know I can change the image in photoshop appropriately, but how do I go about consistently changing it throughout the site? Again, I just want the name changed only. The functionality is fine.

Any help is much appreciated. you guys rock!

I have to gather my thoughts on the other things I want to do with my gallery, so I will get to those another time.

Mods & Plugins (Requests & Discussions) / Any way to set a preview? Complicated.

« on: May 24, 2006, 05:57:18 PM »

I am using very high resolution files when uploading to 4images. I am also using version 1.7.2.

When clicking the original thumbnail, it takes me directly to my high res file that I uploaded. This will not work. I need to preview an 800x600(max). Not my high res files.
Is there any way to show a smaller(in pixels) size file on the page, and when clicking the download button, it will download the high res file instead?

It's like a three step process in a sense. Thumbnail>Preview>Full Size.

I know Menalto Gallery will do this just fine. Where is the option here? Do we have such options?

Any help is highly appreciated. Thank you.
