• I have been working on a Photolog which uses WordPress and would really like to know what people think of it. The features of this Photolog include:
    – 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
    I still have some more work to get the archives and the paged navigation work correctly, but here is Pictorialis – My new Photolog.
    This code and template will be shared once it is ready.

    Archives and paged posts are done. Please check them out. I am now working with a better thumbnail navigation scheme.

    hey laughinglizard…i was doin the same prodject and have the thumbnail navigation done in my prodject. I bet you probably don’t need it but if you do i’ll post.

    Gave it a shot at Pictor
    Got some errors. Sent a mail at the mac.com address with the error messages.
    The pic didn’t get posted.

    I tried it at this URL: https://ara.faithful.nu/photos/
    I published an image and received this error:
    Warning: imagejpeg(): Unable to open ‘/home/faithful/public_html/ara/photos/wp-admin/thumbnails/thumbbm2.jpg’ for writing in /home/faithful/public_html/ara/photos/wp-admin/post.php on line 35

    Fatal error: Call to undefined function: read_exif_data() in /home/faithful/public_html/ara/photos/wp-admin/post.php on line 105
    The image didn’t show up at all.

    Lizard, it is amazing, I will try to find some time to test it

    I was wondering, can you provide upgrade script? Which can upgrade from a normal wordpress with picture attached to some posts to photo blog?

    Ara,
    You need to give permission for writable to post.php I believe. I did it and I bypassed it but then I recieved this error when I tried to upload picture & publish:
    Fatal error: Call to undefined function: read_exif_data() in /home/forcefor/public_html/photo/wp-admin/post.php on line 105
    And line 105 on post.php is:
    $exif = read_exif_data ($img1);

    I fixed some of the problems, but I still get this error even after I made post.php writable by the server
    Fatal error: Call to undefined function: read_exif_data() in /home/faithful/public_html/ara/photos/wp-admin/post.php on line 105

    Okay, thanks anyway. That’s a big disappointment…

    Lizard, if your PhotoLog can be done without needing exif, it would be great. I will wait for such version. From my previous posting I meant – lets say you have currently running weblog which contains photos, there is no need of upgrading the wordpress? Or there is? I mean simple php script which can “migrate” this wordpress to your photolog, based on wordpress. ??

    Take a look at Exifer instead of using PHP exif functions:
