ZenPhoto

Since zenphoto relies heavily on its community, we have added a poll on our news section for you to vote what new features you would like to see in future versions of zenPhoto.

We only list feature requests that have tickets posted on the Trac. So if you want to add a feature request, that’s the place to say so. The features getting the most votes will be set on our priority list.

May the best feature win…:-)

Update: Sorry, the poll function is broken currently. We try to fix it soon.

Update #2: The poll is now fixed and working.

• Faster image loading by using the cached image path directly if the file exists. [trisweb]
• Custom suffix for image pages (eg: /alb/img1.jpg » /alb/img1.jpg.php) Defaults to .php, is backward-compatible with older URLs by 301-redirect, and makes sense. #16 [trisweb]
• Now compatible with PHP safe_mode restriction. [trisweb]
• Fix for permissions wrongly set in cache folder (could not delete cached images). [trisweb]
• Added optional Unsharp Mask for thumbnails, defaults to off. Config param: thumb_sharpen. [trisweb]
• Refactored the way requests are handled. Split into 2 include files: controller.php and functions-controller.php. [trisweb]
• mod_rewrite rules for sub-albums complete; works to infinite path depth. [trisweb]
• Much improved SEO (Search Engine Optimization) – URLs are always 301-redirected to their single canonical form; #16 (custom suffix) fixes image pages not appearing in indexes. [trisweb]
• Major code refactoring and reorganization. [trisweb]
• Warning if you use the default password. [Chris S.]
• Better filtering of the album folder/image filename to avoid duplicate database entries. [trisweb]
• Collected garbage in garbage collection methods. Fixed several bugs. [trisweb]
• 1.0.8.1 – Fixed a bug with the image suffix as ‘.php’ [trisweb]

• Bug: image sorting within albums fixed (getImageId() not found error). [trisweb]
• Bug: image dimensions are now cached in the database again (no functional difference, but much faster). [trisweb]
• Changed the default RewriteBase in .htaccess to /zenphoto to correspond with the default folder in the package. [trisweb]
• Now detects changed images and reprocesses them if the cached versions are old. [trisweb]
• When an image cannot be found/loaded, an error image is shown instead of no image (passing i.php?...&debug disables this and shows the error output) [trisweb]
• Other minor bugfixes and code cleanups.
