Zenphoto

Zenphoto 1.4.1.1 is a minor bugfix release of the recent 1.4.1 branch.

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

Collects output of the 'theme_head' filters, parses it into js, css, and other items. CSS or JS files with duplicate base names are reduced to just the first instance. (Paths are ignored.) In-line js is consolidated into one tag.

This is intended as an example of how one might process the output from the 'theme_head' filters.

[Note: this processing takes 0.02 seconds on my test system loading the Garland theme with reasonable collection of plugins. So it may not be appropriate to use it from a performance perspective.]

Sadly our package generator script created a small error that results in sites not working and logins failing. We will try to get a new package up soon. But for now you can either update directly from the trunk svn stream or just fix it easily yourself. 

The file in question is in /zp-core/version.php. This file contains a empty first line. Open it via FTP and just remove that line and all should work again (Encountered and tried successfully on our own site).

We are sorry for the inconvenience!

Update: The package has been fixed. You can re-download and re-install to fix the issue, or follow the step above. The only change was the fix to the version.php file. Thanks for your patience.

HTML5Media plugin for video and audio handling for Zenphoto built from class-textobject.

This plugin gives Zenphoto something resembling the Flickr "photostream" functionality, displaying all recent images over a series of pages, no matter what album they belong to.

A site (front end) using ZenphotoCMS generally should generally work without cookies, too. There may be certain things that don't work as expected then as well.

This plugin prints a "Back To Top" link at the right buttom of your blog section. Of course you have to use the Zenpage plugin. The link will only be printed on the "news.php" and "pages.php" 

1. In the root plugins folder create a new folder called tinymce4
2. Inside the new tinymce4 folder create a new folder called config
3. Go to zp-core/zp-extensions/tinymce4/config and copy any or all of the existing config files to get you started.
4. Note there are slight differences between config files for gallery items, Zenpage CMS items and comments.
5. Place the copied files in your new /plugins/tinymce4/config/ folder
6. Rename your copied config file(s) to something unique for each file. The prefixes "zenphoto-", "zenpage-" (both on the tinymce4 options) and "comment-" (comment_form plugin) are required so these plugin option selectors know which to display so choose something like e.g. zenphoto-myconfig.php.
7. Open the new renamed config file and ensure the first javascript line is pointing to the correct location of the normal tinymce.min.js file, by default this should be (...)

Zenphoto defaults the permissions for files and folders based on the file permissions of the /zp-core folder. This usually is the correct setting.

However some server configurations may not work with this setting. Setup will attempt to modify the permissions. If it is unable to do this you will have to manage the permissions manually.

Zenphoto requires these permissions to the following folders and all files and folders within:

• /albums – Read access at least, for image uploading via the backend Zenphoto also needs write access naturally
• /backup – Read and write access (This folder is only used if you use the database backup utility Zenphoto provides)
• /cache – Read and write access
• (...)
