Zenphoto

Antonio Ranesi has updated his ThumbsZoom plugin to finally be compatible with Zenphoto 1.4.6.

Zenphoto uses several path related constants internally you should always use these if you work with paths so your themes and plugins are safe for any possible name changes. These constants are defined in /zp-core/global-definitions.php.

For all URL's to actual items (albums, image, news and pages) you should rather use Zenphoto's object model framework or the related template functions.

Available constants

ALBUMFOLDER

/albums/ – stores all albums and images. If you use a custom name it of course stores that name.

ALBUM_FOLDER_WEBPATH

http(s)://yourdomain.com/albums/ – full webpath to the /albums folder

ALBUM_FOLDER_SERVERPATH

/var/www/html/zenphoto/albums/ – The path to the albums folder but with the full server path if you installed in a subfolder "zenphoto" (exact path depends on the host)

BACKUPFOLDER (...)

Zenphoto has a specific URL structure for all front end items we explain here. We recommend to use mod_rewrite but Zenphoto works without it as well. The examples assume Zenphoto has been installed in the root of a domain.

Mod_rewrite links (SEO friendly)

The URL's are not completly rewritten via mod_rewrite/htaccess but internally. Therefore some parts can be changed via the rewriteToken plugin.

Gallery

Gallery index:

yourdomain.com

Gallery index, several pages:

yourdomain.com/page/

Album (thumbnail page):

Album, several pages:

We just learned about the sad news that the Gallery project is going into hibernation after over 14 years. The Gallery project was one or possibly the first great solution for self hosted gallery websites in 2000. It defined the category of "web image galleries" and was there for years already when Zenphoto was started. Back in 2005 Zenphoto founder Tristan Harward noted on his development announcement:

I have a vision of what the final product will be like I imagine it with the simplicty and flexibility of PhotoStack, the user interface innovations of flickr, the power of Gallery, and the interactivity of WordPress all rolled into one great app that should be a joy to use.

Although Zenphoto started as an alternative to existing systems like Gallery therefore, we never felt being actual "competitors". Just like with our friendly connection with (...)
