I'm pleased to announce the release of Zenphoto 1.0.3! I've accidentally released it almost exactly midnight... maybe I'll make that a tradition. Anyway.
New features in this release include:
- Image sizing/cropping any way you want (for theme developers and/or users and/or plugin authors)
- Stopdesign theme included using the above.
- Access to any image's size from the theme.
- Any valid filename should now work in ZP (yes, even "b&$%#+@!`'~_2.jpg") (Actually, don't try that name... I just discovered a bug... well, okay, you can try it, but it's kinda funny)
- Fixed several more security issues brought to our attention by Raphael HUCK (Thanks!)
- Full UTF-8 (and any other character set) support for non-ASCII characters, thanks to Niels Leehneer.
- Many, many bugs fixed, and lots of code cleanup. Thanks to all who helped!
More Release Notes from JIRA...
[b]IMPORTANT NOTE:[/b] For those of you upgrading, it's VERY IMPORTANT that you re-do your zp-config.php file from the zp-config.php.example file. That's because it's not config.php anymore! The filename was changed to avoid conflicts of any kind with include paths. Don't forget!
Front page, http://www.zenphoto.org . You might have to hit 'refresh' in case your browser has cached it.
said, done, got it, installed.. ...... ... beautiful. another fine piece of work.
EXIF is still not yet a built in feature of Zenphoto.
There are precompiled libraries like
http://www.sanisoft.com/phpexifrw/
and
http://pel.sourceforge.net/
that I have gotten to work with Zenphoto but I am unhappy with the output options it gives you.. I myself am trying to get this to work and spit out functional results. Weather or not I or someone else comes up with a functional hack or not.. The roadmap shows version 1.1 as the Exif release as well as the subalbums release.
We're working on EXIF/IPTC for the next release, yeah. I'll probably use one of the PHP-native libraries (not relying on PHP's module support, which isn't necessarily available), leaning toward Exifer ( http://www.offsky.com/software/exif/index.php ). It's the most lightweight and most consistent library I've found so far, and a good base to continue improvement and perhaps adopt the development into zenphoto.
Has anyone experienced admin issues with v1.03? Please see my post in the admin section....

I cannot edit an album with 2 instances of 1.03 - a new installation and an upgrade from v1.01.
Thanks
Greg
I really like zenphoto, but it would be great if there was an option to change the page extension for the photo pages - currently they end in ".jpg" - but because of this the pages don't get indexed by Google. It would be better to end the file in ".html" or "/"
Question from another dumbass....
I am looking for the 1.0.3 package but I can't find anything but the 1.0.3 beta release. the webpage also states 1.0.3. beta etc.
I checked the website with two different machines at work where I am pretty sure that I haven't surfed to zenphoto.org but I see no changes. Can somebody post a direct link to the tar.gz file so I can wget it?
The status of zenphoto is still in beta.. the 1.0.3 on the front page is the 1.0.3 you are looking for.
Excuse me for my english in advance. I am French and the following text was translated with Google Translate...
When I create a gallery, the folder is correctly created and the uploading is done too. But when I visualize the gallery, the link is not correct.
Example:
Gallery's name : "Le Jorkyball"
Folder created : "le-jorkyball"
located in : "http://localhost/mywebsite/zenphoto/albums/"
and the photos was uploaded in : "http://localhost/mywebsite/zenphoto/albums/le-jorkyball/"
1st bug : The thumbnails do not appear.
2nd bug : In the admin menu, when I clic on "Browse your gallery and edit on the go.", the gallery is loading (whithout thumbnails) but links are wrong. When I clic on the wrong link, I have this message : "The requested URL /mywebsite/zenphoto/le-jorkyball/ was not found on this server." >>> where is the "albums" folder???
