Gallery2 Integration

Hi all,

I need some help getting the installation setup, I think I'm in the right place.

I've installed Drupal fine, and Ive installed Gallery2 inside it fine... but I can't get the module to appear in the Administration bit of Drupal...

Drupal: http://randalstownprimary.com/testsite/
Gallery2: http://randalstownprimary.com/testsite/gallery2/main.php

Can someone give me an idiots guide ;) to getting the module to work?

Thanks
Tony

Wouldn't be better to create a troubleshooting category , so all the problem solution requests will not mess with other discussions ?
I think that it would make things easier for a user , and a developer , if this discussion was not scattered between the forum posts

Hi every body
i have change the language for gallery 2 from language settings but nothing happend
i mean the new language didn't appears for all links words or list
Could any one help me?

Hi,
I setup gallery 2 in my site 2 days ago
but i coudn't know how to
let user to create his album in registration
and no one can see his album excpet some roles
how could i do that
please any idea

For performance reasons, I'd like to define a role (or something like) that is logged into Drupal, but never into G2. I also need an admin role that is logged into both Drupal and G2. Has anyone done such a thing? Is it currently possible?

Hi,

For a long time I asked at the forum (http://gallery.menalto.com/node/70299) about the integration of Gallery2 and CCK. The last year, profix898 published the first version of the Gallery_add module and his roadmap in the following pdf (http://groups.drupal.org/files/gallery_addon.pdf).

At the moment the module version is gallery_addon_6.x-1.x-dev.

profix898, Can you comment what is the future of this module? Will exist a definitive version for version 6 of Drupal?

Hello everybody!

As some of you may have noticed already the Gallery2-Team announced a complete rewrite of the Gallery project named "Gallery3", "G3" in short (read http://gallery.menalto.com/gallery_3_begins). I agree with the G2 devs that a rewrite at this point makes a lot of sense. The latest version of G2.3 provides good funtionality, but has grown heavyweight/complex and slow. However, the announcement of G3 has great impact on the future of the Drupal integration module(s) as well. What does this mean for us?

hi all,

I've been trying for some hours to get a multisite gallery, multisite drupal install working - i've successfully gotten a branch of a multisite gallery install to show up inside drupal properly, at least to the point of displaying image blocks etc - i'm running latest stable drupal and dev gallery- however, all the links within the gallery block and node point back to drupal root directory - perhaps my embed URI is off? i'm pretty familiar with both drupal and gallery having used them for years.

anybody know of a reason why this won't work at all? anybody been able to do it?

I'm not sure this has any value anymore or where, if anywhere this should go, but these are my notes. I finally upgraded from drupal 4.7 to drupal 6.4. That meant I could finally try the new Gallery module. These are my notes to myself on the process and what I did and little issues I had. I hope they're useful. Perhaps with some feedback and refinement they might have something worth adding to the codex. Not sure about that.

1. Install Gallery

I use Gallery2 + garllery.module( Drupal 5.x).
I use plugin User album (Create an album for each new user ). I login in drupal website(admin) . Go to User management-> Access control:
With authenticated user I check access gallery. I create user (not admin). I use user put login in drupal website.
When User login in drupal website. I not want user access site admin . User only access create album and Edit album.
When i create a new user and add a role acess gallery. All this user login in drupal can acess site admin(gallery2). I dont know. Why?

i try find a module album put create a album for every user. But i not found. Can i make it with Gallery?

Hi all !

First, let me say that I'm absolutely sorry if the current post should not be posted here...

I'm about to use Gallery2. Previously I've created galleries using Viewfield, Image, NAT and Views modules. In fact my problem is that I need to add extrafields to galleries (means that a gallery must probably be a node). And i need screw FiveStars & Voting API on images.

So my question : is it possible with Gallery2 or Not ?

Thanks a lot !

Hello,

I posted this also in http://gallery.menalto.com/node/78754 , bu I also post it here because i intuively think, suspect, there is no real solution for this issue.

1)How my installation looks like:
httpdocs/drupal
httpdocs/gallery2_codebase (no installation here, no config.php)
httpdocs/user1_gallery
httpdocs/user2_gallery
httpdocs/user3_gallery
httpdocs/user4_gallery

2)What i have:
Synchronisation & integration between drupal & only ONE gallery at a time

3)What i want:

I posted my question as a comment to another post, but didn't get a reply, so I figured I'd try as a standalone post.

Here's my structure:

• ~/www/gallery2/ (multisite codebase for G2)
• ~/www/bouldermountainfire/ (root for drupal = www.bouldermountainfire.org)
• ~/www/bouldermountainfire/sites/default/gallery2 (site install, not symlink)

I've turned on and off cleanurls in Drupal and rewrites in G2 per the documentation.

This one took me a while to resolve. I am sure not many users will fall into this trap. I hope this post makes life easier for those with the same setup and maybe lead to a little improvement in future. The post about necessary rows in the Gallery2 table handling authorization for Everybody gave me the clue, as I am neither expert with Drupal or Gallery2 intrinsics. See http://gallery.menalto.com/node/61382

I think we made a nice step forward with the release of 5.x-2.x in November 2007. However, there is still a lot of work to be done. I cant provide a schedule for gallery module, but I can give you an overview of things I plan to tackle in the next months.

BTW: There are still (almost) no people helping out with documentation and support. Dozens of sites are running G2 with Drupal, but it looks like nobody really feels connected to the spirit of the community enough to contribute :(

At the moment we are (at most) 1 1/2 people working on the gallery module and its affiliates. Thats not a problem per se (for example it allows us to make major changes and rapid progress without lengthy discussions), but there is little time left to answer all requests submitted to the issues queue. Also the G2 integration forums are almost unsupported because of our limited resources and we still dont have a basic documentation online in the G2 codex.

Hello,

I wounder if someone has already ported the Embedded-Media-Field to Gallery2?
http://drupal.org/project/emfield

Background information:
The emfield is a cck-field to integrate media types like images from providers like Picasa, Flickr, ..
or videos from youtube, myspace, ..
There are two integration types: as reference or import.

The emfield provides an API to embed further providers

My Idea:
Interprete Gallery2 as provider.
After porting the emfield to Gallery2 it should be possible to reference the images and thumbs
from the local installed gallery.

I just tagged an official release for the new 5.x-2.x series of gallery module after almost 7 months of development and testing. You can download the module and read the release notes at http://drupal.org/node/194709. I'd really love to receive feedback on the new design and functionality, so please comment here.

I've been running several Drupal/Gallery embedded sites for a few years now. They weren't easy to set up initially, but I've more than made up for the extra time spent initially with all the time saved by only having two code bases to manage. I initially made use of symlinks to get things to work, but not anymore. I'm curious to know how others have configured multisite environment and their considerations in doing so.

I recently upgraded to new servers and decided to use separate servers for Drupal and Gallery. This of course prevents the integration module from working, since it requires that the Gallery directory is locally accessible by Drupal.

The solution I came up was to use NFS to make the Gallery directory on the other server visible to the Drupal server.

I spent 22hr straight figuring out how to get NFS working on our servers, mostly, I admit, because of my limited experience with nfs and iptables.

I haven't got a photo gallery on Drupal yet but thinking seriously about it (I have some stuff on Flickr ready to move in), however I thought it would be very cool to have a list of all the Drupal photo galleries out there for the people who want to create a new one (like me) or just for the curious.

I decided to reuse Thilo's nicely formatted post about Gallery2 sites for collecting the main data (I hope you don't mind?). Don't forget to go update his post if you are using Gallery2 specifically.

Anybody that did not use Gallery2 for his Drupal photo gallery?

Looking forward to see your artwork!

Cheers,
Marc.
