vpiwigo

It would be technically possible.
1 – Web service to loggin.
2 – Web service to get pictures.

But by doing this, any private picture for Piwigo is going to become public. Any direct link to the picture or via the Piwigo url will fail.
I know it is exactly what condorman17 would like to have but it is not inline with web url principles.

Another issue is: A picture visible on a private category might be protected and not visible from another web domain (e.g. a wordpress page with a different http address). This is due to .htaccess rules.
See $conf[‘original_url_protection’] parameter within Piwigo forum or documentation.

Really complex to deal with for a specific request…

Hi,
Currently I did not look how works wordpress gallery…
I should work on a piwigo private access but it is more complex I thought.
If you have a sample of how it could ran…
Thanks for your help.

For names of albums like :
[lang=default]Images[/lang][lang=sk]Obrázky[/lang]

I did not find a quick solution.
I was expecting a similar shortcode equivalent from another WordPress plugin.

So I add the point to my todo list (3rd priority).

Plugin: Codestyling Localization is a good tool to update your .po and .mo

Please wait for next version.
I will send you a pre-version to get your updated *.po file.
So other users will get a slovak version of piwigopress.

For names of albums like :
[lang=default]Images[/lang][lang=sk]Obrázky[/lang]
I don’t have a solution yet.
I have to make some searches.

Thanks.

In few words:

1 – Make a copy of default.po
2 – Rename it as pwg-sk_SK.po
3 – Download & install Poedit or similar tool
https://www.poedit.net/index.php

4 – Edit your pwg-sk_SK.po with your tool
Saving your .po file would create a .mo file

SK is not yet available.
Let me few days, I could explain how to build a new language pack for piwigopress.
Thanks.

This proposal might be possible.
I will study it later.
Up this topic after next release launch.
Thanks.

Knowing well you picture sizes,
Managing your gallery/ies,
Will be better than any resizing any picture by a browser.

Sharpen/pixel effects on their original pictures due to resizing would never be accepted asis by photographers.

This topic have to be closed.
Thanks for the idea.
Sorry again but not selected.

Hi,

“For the first solution it’s also possible if i can’t drag and drop the photos to create the shortcut “
Please clarify…

For the time being, I will try to build and acceptable private access and analyse further consequences on the code on shortcode only.

Don’t forget several points:
– you can be connected to several galleries with PiwigoPress.
– One connection per shortcode.
– One connection per widget usage.
– Private access is going to add authentication process to each connection.

That means a longer response time with private access for each Piwigopress usage, example for a main page:
– Public access by a widget (1 connection)
– Private access by a second widget usage (1 connection including authentication, remember widget for private access not yet planned, need further studies)
– 5 shortcode = 5 connections (with or without authentication)
or more…

Shortcode with private access is on top of the list.
;o)

Hi,

Just a question, if I implement a such enhancement,
do you prefer to get it first on sidebar widget or with shortcode ?

Thanks.
Vince

I red “See also A Method To View Private Photos in WordPress using PiwigoPress” in the piwigo forum. – Thanks for this useful link.
This is a draft version, please don’t use it.

Now back on purpose.
Not sure if it works but if we used the same authentication protocol in WP and in PWG, it might solve.
E.g.: Authentication through Twitter or FBK
If each blog visitor is connected by his Twitter account,
and if each access to the gallery is as well connected by his Twitter account… Maybe all access will be limited by the connection id and the granted access in Piwigo.

Another idea is to share the connection between WP and PWG (same user/password), at the connection time to WP add a hook to be connected to the gallery. But remember that PiwigoPress gave you the opportunity to access several galleries on several URLs and not only your Piwigo gallery.

Just an idea of what OAuth could provide in the future or never.

For the time being, I will try to build and acceptable private access and analyse further consequences on the code.
Consequences on the widget and/or the shortcode.

Hi,

You have the opportunity to manage 9 or less sizes in Piwigo.
Select one for your blog.

Changing picture size by width/height in <img> tag is not a good idea.
Poor/bad effect with different sizes (portrait, landscape, square, …).

Not selected idea.
Sorry.

1 – Even if WordPress and Piwigo galleries are in private access, never forget that the “PiwigoPress username” in your galleries should stay a simple user (not an admin) for security reasons. There is a risk by saving a Piwigo password within WordPress table, the password becomes readable by any plugin.

2 – Knowing above risk and limiting the access rights to simple user accesses, we can probably add a connection system (I mean feasible only).
But how many people could be interested in such enhancement ?
Not a lot.

3 – What’s happen if one member has less access than the “PiwigoPress username” ???
Link to not authorized access page in Piwigo.

Let me think about something else
(maybe there is another solution in your case)…

RSS issue solved by PiwigoPress 2.23

Login is now on study.
;o)

Just below the group of “Album page if one selected”

Set “Album id (0=all)” with a public non empty album id…
The link will direct your visitor to the album.

Enjoy.
