Assuming you use batch upload and IPTC caption, keywords etc. you may face the same problem I have been struggling with for years now: When you update caption or keywords of some images, re-upload them to 4images you have to delete the old images and re-import them so that 4images will take note of the new data. A boring and error-prone thing when it has to be done often.
I have often been thinking and trying for a solution to do this automatically but it lasted until today: Finally (with a lot of preparation work done in the last two years  ;-) ) it took me a few hours only to implement "update image data and keywords" during "check for new images".

If anyone (with some PHP programing knowledge!!!) is interested on this solution, send me an email please! For three reasons I cannot give a ready-to-use mod:
a) I am not using the latest 4images version
b) I have done a lot of other changes during the last two years regarding import of iptc data so my code cannot be transferred directly to other users.
c) The current code is not perfect and requires individual configuration but it works.

Discussion & Troubleshooting / details.php with invalid image_id
« on: December 03, 2006, 12:04:07 PM »
Hi!

When calling details.php with an invalid image_id the start page index.php will be shown without any error message.

Can someone give me a hint where I may change this to showing an error message?

(Please don't ask why this may occour at all! Long story... *g*)

I need to change  the "check for new images" ("Neue Bilder checken") feature that it also finds updates images, i.e. images with the same file name but a newer file date.
This has to result in deleting all information about the old image and importing the new one. The reason are changes to the ITPC data which have to be reflected in the database.
Currently I manually delete the affected images before calling check for new images. But this is annoying, time consuming and a source of error.

Has anyone already made such a modification? Or anything else that would do the job?

Discussion & Troubleshooting / BUG in download.php (1.71)
« on: March 22, 2005, 10:41:52 AM »
Die Funktion get_remote_file in "download.php" liefert bei nicht vorhandener Datei nicht 0 zurück, da die Variable $file_data nicht leer ist, sondern die Fehlermeldung des Servers enthält.
