April 2002 by the programmer and copyright holder Federico "pix" Feroldi ( pix@pixzone.com ) on http://sourceforge.net/projects/yappa/ yappa-ng v0.9 as released on 05.01.2003 by the programmer and copyright holder Fritz Berger ( wizard@zirkon.at ) on http://www.zirkon.at/zirkon/scripts/yappa/yappa-ng_main_eng.html YAPPA : Yet Another PHP Photo Album yappa-ng: yet another php photo album - next generation This file is part of the yappa-ng documentation. For details on yappa-ng, demo, links and sourcecode-download please refer to the following pages: http://www.zirkon.at/zirkon/scripts/yappa/yappa-ng_main_ger.html (language: german) http://www.zirkon.at/zirkon/scripts/yappa/yappa-ng_main_eng.html (language: english) =================================================================================================== - End of "CHANGELOG_YAPPA2yappa-ng" - All newer changes will be in the file "CHANGELOG". - yappa-ng v0.9 (ng = next generation) (06.01.2003) - made a demo gallery availlable to play around with all features live online on: http://www.zirkon.at/yappa-ng_demo/ - creation of homepage(s) for yappa-ng on http://www.zirkon.at/zirkon/scripts/yappa-ng/yappa-ng_main_ger.html (language: german) http://www.zirkon.at/zirkon/scripts/yappa-ng/yappa-ng_main_eng.html (language: english) - "DEMO-Mode" (02.01.2003) - toggle DEMO-Mode on/off in config.inc.php - in DEMO-Mode: - no change of admin passwords is permitted - new created albums get a default admin password (nonono) - Admin-Support and Admin-Modules programmed (31.12.2002) - The admin-support is designed to be absolutely album-oriented on purpose. That means, that every album has its own admin password (can be the same as in another album) and it means you have to log out of the current album to admin another one (even a newly generated one!) - moved album-related parameters from the central config.inc.php to each album (config_album.inc.php) - Password protection for admin-login - complete language-support - create new album (automatic creation of all necessary files) - upload images - edit image captions and album title/info - change admin password - set/delete/change user password - set thumbnailpage layout, hitcounters, top 10 ranking, image sorting,... - ToDo: delete albums/images - toggle display of image-hitcounter on/off (27.12.2002) - hitcounter will count even if display is turned off (so you can turn it on again without missing hits) - top 10 ranking will show the ranking as number (e.g. 1 to 10) and not the actual hitcount of each image - disable config.inc.php-option "image_log_destination" (no choice anymore) (21.12.2002) hitcounter for albums is in the main yappa directory and hitcounter for images is in the album - yappa favicon.ico (a simple "y" for "yappa") into the icons-folder (linked in index.php) (17.12.2002) - toggle passwordcheck case-sensitive/-insensitive in config.inc.php (04.12.2002) - "Themes Support" started! (01.12.2002) - Complete Language Support - Themes availlable at the moment: - the old "blue" theme (has to be adapted a little bit) and - a brand new "zirkon" theme (I like this one! Idea from sourceforge layout)) - New Layout for the Top NavBar in yappa (30.11.2002) - Top Navbar now in three sections: - static upper NavBar: "Linklist" (left corner) is defined in the config.inc.php (no editing the sourcecode!) - static middle NavBar: for Logos,... (links and images defined in themes_support.inc.php) - dynamic lower NavBar: - directory path in the left corner - album related links (Reports [if availlable], Top 10 Images, ...) and galerie related links ("Main Gallery Overview", Help) in the right corner - "config.inc.php" completly reorganized! (29.11.2002) - "Main Gallery Overview" over all albums implemented. (29.11.2002) - shows the hierarchical directorytree with the infofile album-names (if availlable) (links!!) - fully language supported. - First shot! Has to be refined!!!! (albumstatistics missing!) - "Top X Images" now marked in thumbnail mode (color/txt) [if enabled in config.inc.php] (24.11.2002) - fully automated language support (23.11.2002) - no editing in any sourcecodes anymore !! :-) - customized password-query.inc.php (23.11.2002) - not different queryfiles for every language! Translations now in the respective lang_xxx.inc.php - docu (like this file) and headers in the files now up to date (22.11.2002) - toggle personal footer on/off in config.inc.php (name: footer.inc.php) (22.11.2002) - easy way to integrate an external html-page with a report, linklist,... into a specific album. (17.11.2002) - just create a file with the display text and the url in the album directory. - a linkbar will appear in the thumbnail page - random thumbnail preview in the album selection bar (17.11.2002) (like it is already in the official cvs-version on sourceforge.net) - Password-protected albums have "keys" as preview image - album hits now displayed below the album links in the left album-menubar (16.11.2002) - changed layout and default.css (font-tags in html code) (15.11.2002) - html-code: width & height of thumbnails and images (no resize on page-startup) (10.11.2002) - "Top X Image Hitlist" for albums (10.11.2002) - toggle it on/off in the config.inc.php - you can select the number of hits (e.g. Top 10, Top 3, or whatever you like...) - complete language supported - complete compatibel with the password protection - if it is enabled than there is a linkbar on the thumbnail page 03.11.2002: Decision to make my extended yappa version downloadable, because I don't think anymore, that the programmer "pix" will have the time to include the features/changes into the official yappa version on sourceforge.net :-( I get absolutely no comment from Federico if he has any intention to implement the language support or the password protection into yappa! :-( At this point I want to thank "pix" again for programming the best photo gallery I know and to make it availlable to all of us! Thank you Federico "pix" Feroldi". So I make the changed code accessible to all and mark all parts I changed to make sure nobody blames "pix" Feroldi for any not working changes I programmed, as it is demanded in the GNU GPL licence, under which this program is licenced. I will go on adding features to this version. - created http://www.zirkon.at/yappa_demo/ - created http://www.zirkon.at/zirkon/scripts/yappa/yappa_main.html with (at the moment german only) - description of the program - history of the program - download of my actual yappa_demo (tar, tar.gz, with & without sample images). - toggle language support on/off in the config.inc.php (03.11.2002) - password protection for individual albums (03.11.2002) - the only thing you have to do is put one 3-line file into the directory you want protected - edit the password in this file - album icon in the album selection bar (left frame): "key" - BUT: you should protect the complete "photo_root" (see config.inc.php) with .htaccess ! - toggle the display of image names with links in thumbnail mode on/off in the config.inc.php (23.10.2002) - display of ( # / ## ) pictures in single image mode between << previous & next >> (22.10.2002) - language selection for yappa (20.10.2002) - all textes in yappa change to the selected language - you only need a "language definition file" (lang_XXX.inc.php) where you define the names - if there are news_XXX.txt, caption_XXX.txt or infos_XXX.txt they are displayed too. (the definitions for these files moved from the config.inc.php into the language definition file). - define your default language in the config.inc.php (is a MUST !) - subalbums with "forward.png" instead of "album.png" and without the "0 images" (19.10.2002) - center html for images (17.10.2002) (as it is already implemented in the cvs-version on sourceforge.net) - image selection buttons (forward, next,...) now above AND below the image in singel-image-mode (17.10.2002) - hitcounter for images into the album-directory, hitcounter for albums central in the yappa-root-directory (14.10.2002) - corrected "Hitcounter-Bug" ("double-slashes" created multiple counters) (13.10.2002) =================================================================================================== 13.10.2002: Start with changes and extensions to the yappa devel 1.7 as released on 22.
