Photopress

Photopress is moving to familypress.net – go there for the latest version!

Photopress is now hosted at wp-plugins.org. I’ll continue to put packaged releases here, but the very latest code will be at wp-plugins.org.

Latest version: Go to familypress.net.

Photopress is a plugin that adds a set of helper tools to Wordpress to make working with images easier. It adds a pop-up uploader and a pop-up image browser to the posting page, a groovy random image function for your template, and a simple album to display the photos you’ve uploaded.

To install, download and extract the archive in your Wordpress root directory, which should put the files in the right places. To install manually, here’s where everything should go:

  • photopress.php: in wp-content/plugins/
  • upload.php, browse.php, album.php and photopress-inc.php: in wp-content/plugins/photopress/
  • photos folder: in wp-content/, and it should be writable by your server

Configure the plugin at the Options:Photopress admin page. The defaults should work well with the default Wordpress 1.5 template. As Keith notes below, you must view the options page at least once to populate the options – the plugin won’t work properly if you don’t. (This shouldn’t be necessary anymore, as of 4 April 2005.)

By default the plugin inserts a link to the album and a random image in the sidebar at the bottom of the Meta list. To insert a random image in a different spot, add < ?php pp_random_image_bare(); ?> to your template (I like to put it at the top of sidebar.php in the default 1.5 theme).

Photopress is a messy amalgam of Florian Jung’s Image Browser plugin, the built-in Wordpress upload tool, and Owen Winkler’s Edit Button Template (it now uses Alex King’s JS Quicktags).

Screenshots: In lieu of a demo, here are some screenshots of the plugin in action:

Known issues:

  • missing options: see this post for details, or try upgrading to WP 1.5.1
  • broken buttons: a weird browser problem… try enabling the ‘failsafe buttons’ on the Options page
  • broken album layout: edit album.php, in the photopress folder, to match your theme (look at your theme’s index.php for inspiration)
  • bad paths: the plugin tries to guess the right paths, but it sometimes fails – you can set the paths manually at the end of photopress-inc.php (WP 1.5.1 may help with this too)

    PP 0.3 works great. My boys were wanting to publish some of their drawings for friends to see so I went looking for photo galleries for WP. I found PP, installed it and that’s it. Great Job!

    One install note, which may be due to my being a newbie, I had to go into the Options -> PP and do an update options before the options were visible. Didn’t have to edit any options, just click the update. The symptom was the PP upload would reject all images saying type ??? was not allowed.

  2. Naaman Says:

    Nice plugin. This could work really well, especially since I can’t get PictPress to work on Strayhorn. One question: do you plan on adding an album-like feature? In other words, do you plan on adding a way to categorize the photos for display? Thanks, good work.

  3. Frank Says:

    I tried to use permalinks with PhotoPress but since WordPress is rewriting the .htaccess file, this didn’t work.
    What about adding functions so that one can configure the permalinks working?

  4. Noodle Says:

    Really looking forward to getting this running, after being recommended by a friend (www.toobusyto.org.uk) but getting the following problem

    “It doesn’t look like you can use the file upload feature at this time because the directory you have specified (/usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/noodlespace.net/httpdocs/wp-content/photos) doesn’t appear to be writable by WordPress. Check the permissions on the directory and for typos.”

    Strangely, this occurs even when the directory has ‘777′ permissions, which leads me to suspect there’s a problem with the path. Intriguingly, I don’t normally see the whole path from root in other parts of wordpress… Any ideas what I might need to do?

  5. Alex Says:

    Hi there!
    I’ve just installed the latest Photopress in WP 1.5 and everything works fine – can upload images and add them to a post. Images do show up in the first page, however when I browse an older archive (say click on a category or a previous month) the posts appear without the images!
    Does photopress show only images in the first page, or have I missed something?
    Thanks,
    Alex.

  6. David Says:

    Hi,

    PhotoPress seemed to be okay with everything until the point you access your album via your website. (i.e., http://yoursite.com/?pp_album=1). Mine simply doesn’t display the album instead it just displays http://yoursite.com.

    Here are the configuration details:
    wordpress is in directory: /usr/public_html/;
    photopress.php is in dir: /usr/public_html/wp-content/plugins/;
    photopress dir is in dir: /usr/public_html/wp-content/plugins/;
    photos dir is in dir: /usr/public_html/wp-content/;

    http://kioria.com -> /usr/public_html/;
    http://kioria.com/?pp_album=1 -> /usr/public_html/;

    If you could help it would be great! Thanks

  7. David Says:

    Wish I could delete the previous comment. The problem was of my own not yours.

  8. Dale Says:

    I have downloaded 0.4 twice tonight – have uploaded it to my server 5-6 times. Each time I can activate the plugin, however, nothing shows up under the options page.

    Any ideas? All other plugins seem to be working fine.

  9. David Says:

    Whilst uploading, there is a Description field. It seems like its not working? I have double checked for stupid errors, nothing is wrong. Any known errors with regards to this?

  10. scud Says:

    I’ve tried installing this numerous times and I still get the same problem, whenever I click on the ‘options’ button that correlates to Photopress I get an empty page. I’ve deleted and then re-uploaded all to the same effect. Went digging in the sql db thinking something was stored there and found nothing.

    Any help? I’ve got all the files uploaded to their proper directories and chmod’ed properly as well.

  11. Olly Says:

    Is there something that is required to resize the images? If i upload any number of jpgs i am told that ;

    Filetype not supported. Image not resized.Filetype not supported. Image not resized.
    Warning: getimagesize(/var/www/html/wp-content/photos/thumb_Picture2_01.jpg): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/html/wp-content/plugins/photopress/upload.php on line 299
    File uploaded!

    Your file Picture2_01.jpg was uploaded successfully!

    Even though the permissions for the folder are 777 and the files are jpgs which should be resizable.

    Any ideas ?

    PLEASSEE!!!

    I’m getting the same warning as Olly. Is GD Library requiered to make this plugin work?

  13. TigerDE2 Says:

    Hi!
    I encounter the same problems as scud:
    Whenever I open the photopress options page, WordPress only shows the admin screen navigation and the footer, but no actual content/options for photopress.
    Any idea why?

  14. David Says:

    There seems to be a problem with Categorising (albums) photos uploaded via Photopress. First of all, the album creation is very tedious if there are hundreds of photos. Second, when I type in the string “Someone’s Birthday” it will automatically change to ascii based string, “Someone’s Birthday”. This casts a problem whilst trying to access the albums from photopress’s main index. You can test this on my photopress setup.

    David G. Hong’s photopress albums

    As you can see, the backslash created during categorising (from admin page) is again backslashed as in ascii, string “” is represented as “”. What do I need to edit to rid of this problem? Can you help me thanks.

  15. Janne Says:

    Hi!
    I have the same problem as TigerDE2 and scud. Blank Options page. Any suggestions?

  17. Sam Says:

    I was having the “Filetype not supported. Image not resized.” error. I tried imagemagick and gd, but what finally fixed my problem was turning the register_globals On in my php.ini file.

    Something in this plugin requires register_globals to be on. I haven’t had a chance to poke around the code. Does anyone know what needs to be tweaked so I can turn register_globals off again? This is the only thing on my system that requires it be turned on.

  18. Sam Says:

    Delete that last comment. I’m still getting the Filetype not supported error.

  19. Sam Says:

    I had to recompile my php with gd to fix the Filetype not supported error.

  20. Joe Newing Says:

    Hey there, for some reason whenever I activate the photopress plugin, it seems to take over all other plugins I have, and by that i mean all other pluing option, and management pages get rerouted to the photopress page? any ideas why it would do this?

  21. Wendy Says:

    Very nice plugin and working nice, just a problem to do it work nice with the theme I use.

  22. Tatum Says:

    Thanks for a great plugin, but having a problem….

    I have uploaded pictures successfully, but I have not been able to get Photopress to recoginize it in Manage, or in the album section. Any suggestions?

    I tried to access the option menu but get this error:
    “You don’t have permission to access /wp-admin/c:/program files/easyphp1-7/www/wp-content/plugins/photopress.php on this server.”

    The path looks strange. I guess it’s because of wrong configuration. Can you help?

  24. yan Says:

    I tried the new menu-header.php. But the error is similar to previous one:

    http://www.sigitv.org/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=c:\program%20files\easyphp1-7\www\wp-content\plugins\photopress.php

    The path is still wrong.

    I also tried the “photopress album” in the managment menu. The link has the same kind of error:

  25. Andrew Says:

    I am afraid I can’t get the plug in to work. I Hva euploaded it to the correct places and chmod 777 all files. Activated the plug in. I have a PhotoPress tab in options with nothing but the WordPress details. I have a Photopress Album tab in manage but that just has a field (blank) with an update categories button. Can you help?

  26. Andrew Says:

    Update to my last post. I disabled a spell checker plug in and options appeared in the photopress options tab. Manage/Photpress is still the same with a blank field and one ‘Update Categories’ button.

    On my site I do have a ‘Photo Album’ link and a link with ‘no images yet’ (which I assume is where the picture would appear. Clicking on the ‘Photo Album’ link displays:

    Photo Album
    No photos uploaded yet

    even though I have uploaded images to the photos folder and a sub folder. I have tried disabling all plugins with no result. Thanks in advance.

  27. Brooks Says:

    I noticed in the code in the plugin editor some stuff about pop-ups. Is ther a way to bypass the album feature alltogether and just have inserted thumbnails link to a full size pop-up? That would make me very happy. The main reason is the mess that the current way makes on the resulting page when you click on an image. There’s a test image on the blog right now if you want to see what I mean.

    I have the “Filetype not supported. Image not resized.� error.

    Following the post of SAM, I reinstalled PHP compiled with gd support.
    For Debian users like me, there is a precompiled package (php4-gd).

    Unfortunately this did not solve the problem!
    Does anyone have a solution?

  36. Dave Says:

    Hi,

    I’ve searched this forum, checked Isaac’s site and even googled it, but I can’t seem to find a solution to the following problem. After having activated version 0.5 of Photopress in my Wordpress version 1.5.1 I get the following error:

    Warning: main(photopress/photopress-inc.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/.sites/48/site10/web/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/photopress.php on line 29

    Warning: main(): Failed opening ‘photopress/photopress-inc.php’ for inclusion (include_path=”) in /home/.sites/48/site10/web/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/photopress.php on line 29

    Now, /home/.sites/48/site10/web/ is set on the server as my http://www.xxxxxx.com address, and I have wordpress in a sub-directory. I do actually get the options page and am able to save the options.

    When I click on the photopress album link in ‘Manage’ I get the Photopress Album Categories section, but with these additional errors above it:

    Warning: readdir(): supplied argument is not a valid Directory resource in /home/.sites/48/site10/web/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/photopress.php on line 160

    Warning: readdir(): supplied argument is not a valid Directory resource in /home/.sites/48/site10/web/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/photopress.php on line 160

    It seems to all point towards directory settings. So, I changed the photopress/photopress-inc.php reference on line 29 of photopress.php a number of times, using the full path or any combination thereof, but nothing seems to make a difference.

    Does anybody have an idea? I really want to use this plugin but I’m not getting anywhere with it this way.

    Ps. if I ever get it to work, I’d like to be able to bulk upload a number of photo’s in one hit (i.e. upload 20 photos in one go via the web interface). Is this possible already and if not is it something that might be considered for a future release?

  37. Steven Vu Says:

    When using your plugin with the Fuzzy Date Time Plugin

    http://www.splee.co.uk/category/fuzzydate-plugin/

    The Photopress admin page in Options directs to the FuzzyDate options. If you disable the fuzzydate plugin then the photopress page appears again.

    Other than that a marvelous plugin.

    Thanks

  38. seriocomic Says:

    For Steven Vu and others having the same problem, this is a bug from 1.5, upgrade to 1.5.1 and it goes away :)

    P.S. Nice Plugin Isaac – keep working on it!

    I love your plugin very much – everything is working fine, but…

    I’m trying to creat a multiuser environment with Wordpress included your plugin, but I have to make in Danish – At least the 2 buttons added to the Write-area and in the 2 pop-up windows, so where do i find the original text that i need to translate?

    i try to using your photopress, it’s work good. But if this plugin work together with fotonoter plugin. ( http://fotonotes.net ) its gona be great!

    If posible, maybe u can tell how to do that?

  42. helge Says:

    is photopress compatible with the WYSIWYG-plugin (http://mudbomb.com/archives/2005/02/02/wysiwyg-plugin-for-wordpress/)?

  43. jack Says:

    How do you create albums?

  44. traveller Says:

    Hi, great job with the plugin.

    I noticed a flaw in the codes. If the last row of the main album display and the categories isn’t filled up, eg: only 1 column with thumb if you have a 2-column table, then the row will not be closed properly with a </tr> thus breaking HTML.

    This can be solved by adding the following in photopress.php under the function pp_display_cat() at line 192 right before “echo ‘</table>’;” and after the iteration:
    if($column == $pp_album_columns) {
    echo ‘</tr>’;
    }

    Also in the same file under the function pp_display_main() at line 274 right before “echo ‘</table>’;” and after the iteration:
    if($k == $pp_album_columns) {
    echo ‘</tr>’;
    }

  45. traveller Says:

    I just realised the fix does not anticipate all possible conditions, the conditions should be:

    if ($column <= $pp_album_columns && $column != 1)

    and

    if ($k <= $pp_album_columns && $column != 1)

    to make sure there is an unfilled row.

  46. Dalaimama Says:

    Is there any way to make the files show up in multiple columns in the admin panel under photopress categories? As well, is there a way for each category to appear as a directory rather than having all of the pictures come up on this page? I love the look on the main photo album in my blog but going into the control panel will be overwhelming once I have tons of photos in there :( As it is I have about 46 photos and its becoming cumbersome.

  47. alfh Says:

    Hi there,

    Your plugin made it a lot more easy to manage photos. However, in the options panel any setting for ‘link to photo album’ will insert a link to the photo album, that is, the ‘no’ option does not work.

    And, the layout in the popup window (when clicking ‘browse’ while composing a post) is very messy, pictures overlapping and buttons oddly placed.

    Running wordpress with mySql and apache, browsing with firefox 1.0.4 and IE 6.0.2800.1106 from win 2k, wordpress and photopress latest editions as of today, June 10

    Keep up good work

  48. ThePete Says:

    I’m having precisely the same problem as Dave, above. I don’t know where to begin to try and fix this. If anyone has any ideas, please post them. Thanks in advance!

  49. geck Says:

    After having trouble with “Filetype not supported. Image not resized.” errors and not being able to create thumbs, I got it working on my RHEL3 server (Apache2, PHP 4.3.11) by:

    1. Updating libpng, libpng-devel, libjpeg, libjpeg-devel, and especially: GD, all from RPMs
    2. Recompiling PHP (and updated to 4.3.11) with gd:

    ./configure –with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs –with-mysql-dir=/usr/lib –with-gd –with-jpeg-dir=/usr/lib –with-png-dir=/usr/lib –with-zlib-dir=/usr/include

    (the gd, png, jpeg, zlib seems to be the most important)

    3. Restarting apache.

    It took me hours to get all of this figured out. I hope others can use this info.

    Now I’ve just to get the “Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by” fixed!

  50. mike Says:

    i just wanted to say thanks a lot for an amazing plugin. it was just what i was looking for for my blog. i look forward to future updates.

    one thing that would be really handy would be more boxes on the upload screen so that you could upload maybe 3 or 4 images at a time. it would make uploading pictures so much quicker. thanks again.

  51. Blue Magister Says:

    I was wondering if the PhotoPress album could also have an input field for each photo for captions. I’d like to put short captions underneath my photos and, in the case of wallpapers, offer links to the differently-sized versions of each wallpaper design.

  52. Jan Says:

    I would like to prepare Photopress for localization. Please get in touch with me if you are interested in merging the changes I make into your main distribution.

  53. Mike Says:

    The plug-in looks great, but when I try to upload I get the message that this directory: /www/p/r/premeditated.org/htdocs/index.php/wp-content/photos
    is “not writable by WordPress”. Is that the right path? I changed the permissions on my photos folder to 777, but I’m still getting the same message. Anyone have an idea on what I’m doing wrong?

  54. mr nice ash Says:

    hi, is there an update to photopress that i can delete some pictures that i uploaded???

  55. Sue Says:

    I have the same problem as several writers – with “Filetype not supported. Image not resized.â€? errors and not being able to create thumbs. Is there a simple work around? Geck’s solution is a bit scary! The plug in looks like it does what I want when I can make it show images that have been uploaded.
    Using WP 1.5, have viewed the Options page, read all the posts.. Ok what can I try next?

  56. laksko Says:

    Great plugin!

    In the WP-admin, after activating the plugin I get a javascript error:

    Line 153:

    What do I do to get rid of this message?

    Also, are there plans of adding a bulk-upload of images?

    Hello. I love your photo plugin, I’ve gotten everything to work great, but I’m having one minor problem. I’m extremely picky when I code my site, and I’d really like to make the plugin valid xhtml. I need to change all the “&” to “&” This is only a problem with the links. example

    I hope you can help, or point me in the right direction. Thanks in advance.

  58. Jaypee Says:

    having problems with the Categories. when i click some of the categories, i can’t see the images that are under that category, even if i try to refresh. I tried manually deleting the photos from the server and uploaded it again but this time the photos were uploaded with the previous category name, not as default category. Im having a hard time organizing the photos into different categories because of this problem. Your help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

  59. Rory Says:

    Hey there….I’m running in to an issue where if I title an album with an apostrophe in it, it won’t show the images appropriately.

    Also, there’s no way to re-name an album after it’s been created. Can that be added in the next version?

    Finally, how can we get the descriptions to show whwn browsing through the images in an album?

  60. Noella Says:

    Umm… I don’t know if this is a stupid question, but how do I upload pictures? I installed the plug-in and did everything. I logged in, went to “Photopress Album” under “Manage” and all there is on the page is a box with “Photopress Album Categories” as a title and a button underneath that says, “update Categories” and that’s it.

  61. Jöran Says:

    Great plugin but I got a problem.
    I’ve my site on http://www.mysite.com and the location of my WP is on http://www.mysite.com/wordpress/ when I click on a photo in the photopress gallery the path isn’t correct, where can I change the location in the plug-in?

    Please help because I like to use the plug-in without the error :-)

  62. tobias Says:

    Great job, a really cool plugin!

    But I’ve got some problems with the photo album. Uploading works great and I also see the uploaded pics in the postings. the only problem is, that the “photo album” does not work. I just get a blank page. any ideas for solving this problem?

    Cool plugin…

    Although I needed to set up a wp site and once I moved it “live” and changed the wordpress blog address to the site root (mysite.com) rather than the default (mysite.com/wordpress)

    the plugin falls apart and I get errors: I started a thread over at wp forums with the errors

    http://wordpress.org/support/topic/39630

    any help would be appreciated.

  65. clint Says:

    [solved][woot]

    ok I was able to fix it, I tracked down the bit I needed to tweak, and will post it in case anyone else changes their wp blog address to their site index and gets the same prob…

    again I renamed my wordpress folder to wp, so just tweak it accordingly for yours…

    $pp_photosaddress = $pp_blogurl . '/wp/wp-content/' . $pp_photofolder; //added /wp
    $pp_photospath = $home_path . 'wp/wp-content/' . $pp_photofolder; //added wp

    these are the last two lines in the “photopress-inc.php” file

    Hi!

    First, excuse me for my bad english.

    I’ve been testing your Photopress plugi, and it’s cool, but I’ve a big error on my web: it’s unable to create thumbnails … when I upload a photo with Photopress I have the next error:

    “Filetype not supported. Image not resized.Filetype not supported. Image not resized.
    Warning: getimagesize(S:\Web/wp-content/photos/thumb_DSCN0110.JPG): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in S:\Web\wp-content\plugins\photopress\upload.php on line 300″

    The photo is uploaded ok, but the thumbnail isn’t created … I’have tested it with gif’s and jpg’s of very much sizes, but it don’t work … can you help me?

  67. Eleka Says:

    Well, I’m investigating with the plugin and I want to “delete” the access to my album of the “meta’s” bottom and put it in the top of the sidebar .. how can I do it? When I edit the sidebar.php I don’t see in the meta-part anything referent to photo almub or soemthing similar …

  68. Gi Says:

    it’s a very nice plugin!!
    thank you~

    but i have a question, how can i DISABLE clickable PHOTO LINK in new window (when browsing photos in the Photo Album page)?

    i want the photo viewable in the Photo Album without further hyperlink, is it possible?

    thank you very much!!!!

  69. jmac Says:

    I’m still unable to get this plugin to work after three attempts. I consistently get the errors below although all files are uploaded to the correct directories:

    Warning: opendir(/home/******/public_html/index.php/index.php/wp-content/photos): failed to open dir: Not a directory in /home/******public_html/wp-content/plugins/photopress.php on line 157

    Warning: readdir(): supplied argument is not a valid Directory resource in /home/******/public_html/wp-content/plugins/photopress.php on line 159 no images yet

    Anyone available for help? (it doesn’t seem like there’s been anyone active here in a while)

  70. marc Says:

    Hi Guys

    does anyone using this plug-in with the theme Green Marinée ?
    having some issue with it (album).

  71. Matthias Says:

    Great plugin, works like a charm (needs to be said because everyone else here seems to be complaining). The results were a little bit unexpected, though ;O) I didn’t realize it’s even a complete photo album! Now that’s even more than I had hoped for. Once again, great plugin. Time to move my personal weblog to Wordpress, too, I guess!

  72. NOlo Says:

    suddenly I have the same exact problem as Edeka, it doesnt make the thumbnails, it says that it is unable to open the stream and that the file format is incorrect… but everything was working fine yesterday o_o

  73. Cabesoul Says:

    I put in sidebar.php but no works ???
    just appear de code…

  74. yovko Says:

    Small bug:: The pp_random_image function don’t generate valid XHTML img tag.

  75. yovko Says:

    Actually every img tag not ending with &qt;/>&qt;

  76. Fleishman Says:

    Hi, excelent plugin.

    I have a small problem with my album layout – everything that is normally in the sidebar appears directly under the photo albums, or photo. I am using semiologic theme 2.6 and photopress 0.6.

    I know it says to edit your album.php to be similar to your theme’s index.php but i really can’t see what it is that needs altering. I am new to php editing and wordpress – any help would be greatly appreciated.

  77. BobNL Says:

    Is there a way to have the random function choose from only one categorie. Cause I want it to choose from a gallery with only landscape pictures.

  78. oli Says:

    Hi, how can I change the default name for the categories when uploading an image? All images are always uploaded in “Default”, I want to change that.

    How can I do that?

  79. the Other michael Says:

    Anybody have any luck with getting Photopress entries to appear in archives or category pages? I like the ease-of-use, but that result so far is the killer. I can’t use it if more than half my pages end up “blank.” :-(

    plus, adhesive pages cmoe out _really_ bad (java-script as plain-text).

  80. SHarky Says:

    i’ve encountered a similar problem: it says “Filetype not supported. Image not resized.” and doesn’t create the thumbnail..
    i’m wondering why cause CHMOD is ok & i’ve inserted only files already supported in the OPTIONS like gif, jpg or png…

  81. Refresh Says:

    Is there a way to have photopress rotate images?

  82. chris Says:

    Hi,
    a complete newbie here — can anyone tell me how to create new categories other than the default category? I just can’t find out how to do it. :-(
    I’m using wp 1.5.2…
    Thanks a lot

  83. Sarah Says:

    CHRIS, just rename it to your desired new category and it will automatically create one for you..

    MY QUESTION is this..
    How do i add a subcategory under the categories..???

    default is like this
    Album: Default

    i want this:
    Album: Default: Another SubAlbum

    so for example in my album i have
    Album
    -Animals
    -People

    how can it add
    Album
    -animals
    —dogs
    —cats
    -people
    —women
    —men

    ?????

  84. tenaka Says:

    hi guys, I was following this guide when I came to the section where I am required to install photopress. I am getting the following error:

    Warning: extract(): First argument should be an array in /var/www/web8/web/wordpress/wp-includes/functions.php on line 1813
    Fatal error: Call to undefined function: pp_album() in /var/www/web8/web/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/photopress/album.php on line 62

    and I can’t even access my plugin section anymore. I have to delete the plugin to be able to continue to work.

    any sugestions???

  85. jakez Says:

    Good morning everybody.
    Can someone explain me, where the photopress Gallery saves the Album Information? (name…)

    I can’t find something in the MySQL DB and there are no files created. And it can’t be saved in the Picturefiles, because if I delete a Picture and upload the same one a few minutes ago, it is in the same(old) albun ;(
    Need help^^

    The link given at the top of the page: http://dev.wp-plugins.org/browser/photopress/trunk takes you to an area that makes it really non-intuitive to download the plugin. At familypress, I get a folder called wp-content. Well, I already have that folder in my directory. Why would I upload another? I can only imagine what a nightmare this is going to be…

  87. Lucas F! Says:

    Hello Isaac!

    First of all, congrats for the simple and useful project, it’s really helping me and many people make our blogs more intersting.
    I’m leaving a suggestion here for a future add. Photopress should provide multiple photo upload, it would help updating galleries after a trip, show or any event, when we have many pictures to upload.

    Please, think about!

    Keep upgrading this nice plugin!

  88. Cato Says:

    Hey

    I’m having problems with my sidebar in with this gallery. Look here: http://www.catonett.com/blog/?pp_album=1&pp_image=apple_mac.jpg

    The meny are below the gallery and is pushed to the right. How do I fix this?
    And I know I can change the album.php, but I don’t know what to change.

  89. Steven Vu Says:

    I’ve been using your plugin for while but get annoyed at having to open up the upload dialog for every single picture I want to upload. Any chance of placing a setting so that you can upload more than one picture at a time?

    Cheers,
    Steven

    …well, it’s a bit scary reading all these problems posted here and no comment, no reaction, no indication whether they are solved … or … ?

  91. i-nZ Says:

    Hi,

    I would like to report something that I consider to be a bug. I have 2 photopress categories “Default” and “Cats”After I import a large collection of files placed in the “photos” folder they are imported in the “Default” Category. That’s fine for now. Then when I go to Mass Edit next to all newly imported pictures it says they are in the “Cats” category (and they are in “Default” again). I am unable to change the category in mass edit – the only way is to do a category view and open every individual picture and then change the category.
    It would be very nice if this could be fixed…

    Cheers,
    Ivan

    Hi, Photopress is fantástic.
    Exist any plugin update to del category when created in system?

  94. Mary Says:

    Just wanted to congrats you for this great plugin.
    I’ve tested hundreds of photo plugins and definitly, yours is the best one !!

    I’d just like to know if you plan to add a function to choose which photo should be the thumbnail on the main gallery.
    Just asking :)

    Congrats and good luck with your plugin.
    Sincerly,
    Mary

    hello.
    I am still using version 0.4 and am really happy with it, except that after upgrading to wp 2.5 I get this error when trying to upload a picture:

    Couldn’t upload your file to /var/www/web6/web/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/photopress/P1010267.JPG.

    it might also be related to a plugin, but how can I debug, except for deactivating all plugins?

  96. ovizii Says:

    oops.

    my msitake, after upgrading i had to configure the plugin again, and I forgot to change the max. uploadble picture size. consider my question as answered :-)
