• There is a new version of Pictorialis out which fixes a couple of issues that were brought up with the Beta and you can download it from https://weblogtoolscollection.com/b2-img/pictorialis.zip
    Fixes for this version include:
    – Built in EXIF support which does not need pre-compiled EXIF in PHP
    – There is a selection mechanism for versions of GD which makes sure you always get the best possible thumbnails and pictures conversion.
    – This also has some file upload fixes which makes sure that the uploaded files do not get erased before the script gets a chance to grab the files.
    – The installation process has also been better defined with some fixes for the installation troubles reported from the previous version.
    As in the pervious version, this new version has the following features:
    – XHTML compliant code
    – Simple once click addition of photos, auto thumbnail and resizing
    – Extraction of EXIF information from original photo and saved as meta
    – Easy installation, as easy as installing WordPress
    – Simple, clean design and look
    – Simple navigation
    My example PhotoBlog with WordPress can be found at Pictorialis

  • almost forgot, it’s not parsing latin characters right, I mean, letters like ???3?-?o?? ?± are not showing correctly. Something I haven’t configured right?

    for some reason, i cant seem to configure it..

    I always get this:
    Warning: move_uploaded_file(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/public_html/photoblog/upload/051904bangkok.jpg) is not within the allowed path(s): (/***/:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php:/tmp) in /****/photoblog/wp-admin/post.php on line 191

    @urbanamy: This hack can also use ImageMagik. The readme has a little more information on how to switch between GD and ImageMagik.
    @alethia: As above, ImageMagik is already an option in Pictorialis. The readme makes things a little more clear. Most of the quality issues can be resolved by switching to ImageMagik. As for the upload folder issue, there was an error in the readme which has been resolved in the new download. I suggest that you download the zip file again and go through the readme one more time. ??
    @yodaamidala: Are the permission for the upload directory set correctly? Try 777 .

    Yes, I’ve set the permission to 777 and even post.php.

    I tried to use the upload pic and the pic doesn’t show up at all. Just the text, but not the image itself. I made sure all 3 folders are within wp-admin folder and chmoded to 777. I’m not sure what is missing. I got no error message so far. I’m using GD which is enabled on the server. I don’t see ImageMagick in readme. I did d/l the zip recently but nothing in there. What’s the solution? Thanks. I look forward when it does work.

    oh my…
    so let’s pretend i already have WP installed and working like i’d like it to…
    if i wanted to add this as domain/blog/photo
    how would i do that?
    scrap what i have, install yours and then try to make it look and work correctly?
    or is there another way?
    oh my…
    dss

    please help, i got this
    Fatal error: Cannot redeclare touch_time() (previously declared in /home/shuji/public_html/photoblog/wp-includes/functions.php:451) in /home/shuji/public_html/photoblog/wp-admin/admin-functions.php on line 328
    what the heck? its a new wordpress and photolog install

    ah..nevermind that, i got it to work now, stupid ftp didnt overwrite my files ??
    thx alot

    Hi LL,
    I downloaded the latest version (my guess) from the link you have on the first post of this thread but I find nothing different from my previous version. The zip is pictorialis-2.
    I can’t find nothing about Image Magick you only mention NetPBM (unless that’s the same thing?)
    thanks ??

    dss, you can install pictorialis in a totally separate folder. Yet, you can use the same MySQL database.
    In the wp-config, you’ll have to change the prefix :
    From wp-config.php.sample:
    // Change the prefix if you want to have multiple blogs in a single database.
    $table_prefix = ‘wp_’; // example: ‘wp_’ or ‘b2’ or ‘mylogin_’

    I still can’t publish uploaded photo. I’m not sure what’s happening here. I followed ReadMe again and made sure the dirs are in the right places (images and thumbnails in WP admin folder, upload in root dir). I even made sure GD is enabled as well. I set up a different mySQL db for this. Yet it wouldn’t show the uploaded image or thumbnail at all. I wonder what could be wrong? Thanks.

    is the latest version based on a nightly or on the Mingus release?

    Hi, I just installed Pictorialis and the pictures are uploaded and all, but I get these errors on the Write page in admin.
