Zenphoto

We like to announce that our own site is now running the 1.4.3 beta. The beta is available for download from the nightly build "trunk" files. If you decide to try the Beta we recommend you check the updates periodically for bug fixes discovered during this trial period. As a reminder, the release is scheduled for June 1st June 15 July 1st (release has been delayed to allow more beta testing).

The rss links for the site have changed on our site as announced a while ago. They should be backward compatible to the 1.4.2 ones but older forms will not work. Best you re-subscribe right now since even these new redirection will be removed in the future.

This module helps you to keep track of your Zenphoto visitors through the Matomo platform. It places the Matomo JavaScript tag at the bottom of your webpages using the theme_body_close filter. If you do not want particular pages to be tracked you should pass an array containing "matomo_tag" as the excludeparameter to the theme page body close filter application. e.g.

zp_apply_filter('theme_body_close',array("matomo_tag"));

Please visit the Matomo for the piwik software and installation instructions.

Early April this year we announced the sponsors program to allow limited advertisement on our site. It turned out that the only serious enquiries were form hosting companies and most of them wished it to be named "Hosting" so we decided to rename it.

The top right menu button is now named "Hosting". Note that the links now changed as well.

We are pleased to announce that the next feature update to Zenphoto is now available in beta. The "trunk" nightly build files now contain this release so you can experience the enhancements by downloading and installing the latest nightly trunk build.

Please read the draft of the Zenphoto 1.4.3 release announcement for details. There is quite a lot of new stuff there.

Zenphoto 1.4.2.4 is a bugfix release of the recent 1.4.2 branch. It will be the last release of the 1.4.2 branch.

As usual we recommend all users upgrade for the latest updates and fixes. See the changes on trac for more information.

An extended Perl script based on several solutions posted online. Used with Menalto Gallery 2.3.x and Zenphoto 1.4.3.

This Zenphoto Plugin reverses geocodes images with GPS data using Google's Geocode API. Reverse geocoding is the process of back (reverse) coding of a point location (latitude, longitude) to a readable address or place name. The address components will populate the location, city, state and country fields in the database, all multilingual.

Showcase site entries are now (roughly) tagged about how the sites use Zenphoto, e.g. standalone or in combination with others.

This is meant to give especially new visitors and users a guide what is possible with Zenphoto beyond being just a photo gallery.

Recently this "myth" was discussed a little on Twitter. We wondered as well. The reason was actually just our logo and the 5th anniversary button we used since 2010 being misunderstood:

The reports of our death are of course greatly exaggerated. We are alive and kicking as our site and forum show! We are on to our 10th year (we will get you, Piwigo!..;-)) and hopefully many more. Therefore we now changed that button text to be clear about that!

Btw, in case you didn't know, you can download our logo in several variants to spread the word about us, too.
