Exhibit 1.0c Photo Gallery Plugin

Ringmaster, Thank You for your response.
I’m presently implementing a conference related blog and would like the features I discussed to be in place before the launch. Any idea when 1.1 will be released? As if you don’t have enough pressure already…

Hey.. I am having some problems. I am using wordpress 1.2 mingus.. and when i try to use the plugin i get this error:
“Database error: [Table ‘blog.wp_exhibit’ doesn’t exist]
SELECT ID FROM wp_exhibit WHERE post_ID = 1 and preview = 1;”
I tried creating a table manually and still recieved errors. I copied all of the files as instructed in the .php file. Does anyone know how to solve this? Thanks.

@jmb85:
Where does this error appear? Does Exhibit prompt you to install its table on the advanced editing page?
@valiot:
Man… Demanding, aren’t we? ?? I have a few more things to do before the code is ready. Maybe sometime this week.

It appears when I do this portion of the instructions :
“Edit an existing post (or draft) and click on the link in the Exhibit area to create the required database table (if it doesn’t already exist).”
I don’t recall being prompted in install/create a table.. it just says it is unable to do so.
Thanks.

Is there no Exhibit area on your advanced edit form at all? Did you insert the code into the advanced edit php file as per the instructions? Where on the page does the error appear?

Yes, I did add the code in “edit-form-advanced.php” if that is what you mean.. The error message shows up right next and under the topic.

ringmaster, is there any way that I can get the corrected style sheet so that my thumbs look right in IE? Will the css file for your 1.1 version work in my 1.0c version? If not, is there something that I can change in my current css style sheet which will correct it?
Thanks in advance.

@symantix:
Try changing this element in your CSS file-
#exhibit_thumbs {
border-width: 1px 0px 1px 0px;
border-color: #cccccc;
border-style: dotted;
width:100%;
}

That’s a tough one. Looking at the 1.1 code, I’d have to move about 30 lines of code to get this to happen. I’ll think more on it after lunch. Suffice to say that unless you’re going to dig heavily into the code, it’s not going to happen with what you’ve got.

Do you think it’s worth your time to write into the code? Like maybe have a < !–exhibitfront– > tag, used only to display an image on the front page? I think it would make your excellent plugin more perfect, as it would facilitate the creation of beautiful front page compositions.

Hey.. I solved the problem i was having before.. so I went to post an image with the thumbnail showing up on top. I saved it and all looked well in the preview, but then when I went to view the blog i got this error:
“Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING, expecting ‘)’ in H:\apachefriends\xampp\htdocs\blog\wp-content\plugins\exhibit10.php(146) : eval()’d code on line 1”
Now the thumb still showed up.. but that message was above, on top of the page, then when i went to edit the post, it is the only thing that showed up in the Exhibit box.

I’m not able to add photos to my weblog. I do not get a button to add photos, see this screenshot.
I use Exhibit 1.1a and WordPress 1.2 mingus. I have the GD library installed (I’m also able to create thumbnails) and my PHP version is 4.3.3
Do you have an idea what the problem could be?

Click on the small photo-like icon next to the image of the recycle bin. That will create a thumbnail for the listed image. When the icon is large, click on it and that will add the image to your post.
There is no problem, just poor documentation on my part. ??
If you create a new directory (by clicking the link at the top of the file picker) you can upload files into it. Then you can add teh whole directory by clicking the folder icon next to the directory name.
I’m sure you’ll get the hang of it.

It doesn’t work for me. I tried what you told me, but when I click on the photo-like icon next to the image of the recycle bin, the icon doesn’t become large. It keeps small and the text it says stays: “click to create a single thumbnail”.
When I tried to open a directory created by exhibit I get to following error:
Warning: opendir(): SAFE MODE Restriction in effect. The script whose uid is 516 is not allowed to access /home/virtual/site13/fst/var/www/html/dj2be/wordpress/images/1 owned by uid 48 in /home/virtual/site13/fst/var/www/html/dj2be/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/exhibitimg/exhibit10f.php on line 398

Is this my problem why I’m not able to get Exhibit to work for me?
