Seems awesome, I’ll try it out tonight :)

Roy at 04:49 on 30 May 2009

CANT WAIT! Trying it when I get off work.

Levent Yilmaz at 06:45 on 30 May 2009

great plugin.I ve been waiting for this for a long time..thanks very very much…
just a question..
is it possible to upate site activity when user upload a album or pics?

Regards

tomg at 12:30 on 30 May 2009

great plugin.
how to make possible the using .mo file of language?

Manoj Kumar at 22:00 on 30 May 2009

@ Levent Yilmaz

Thanks for using my plugin

I have intentionally not written code for sitewide activity as I think it will look like spam in case user upload several pictures, If I get more request I will make changes so admin can activate and deactivate it from admin interface.

Manoj Kumar at 22:08 on 30 May 2009

@ tomg

Currently it only supports English.

Definitely I will implement language support in future version. But not sure when. :)

Don Valdez at 22:41 on 30 May 2009

Sir,
Thank you for developing this plugin. I was able to instal version 0.001 from the plugin browser but the albums dont look like your screenshots. I’m currently running WPMU 2.71 with buddypress 1.0. Perhaps if you have time you can look at it here http://callcenterblogs.net/members/admin/album. I folowed the instructions in the readme. did I miss out on anything?

Roy at 02:08 on 31 May 2009

Work’s great! Would be cool to tag people in the photos too!

tomg at 14:40 on 31 May 2009

@Don Valdez

upload
in plugins directory – bp-album.php and bp-album directory
in bpmember directory – album directory

Don Valdez at 16:09 on 31 May 2009

Anyone aside from Mr Kumar know the answer to my previous question? any help would really be appreciated. Thank you again.

tomg at 16:29 on 31 May 2009

to implement language support I added in bp-album.php

/* Load the language file */
if ( file_exists( ABSPATH . ‘/wp-content/plugins/bp-album/bp-album-’ . get_locale() . ‘.mo’ ) )
load_textdomain( ‘bp-album’, ABSPATH . ‘/wp-content/plugins/bp-album/bp-album-’ . get_locale() . ‘.mo’ );

Manoj Kumar at 16:39 on 31 May 2009

@ Don Valdez

Your album.css file seems missing.

Please upload it from bp-album/css/album.css (Plugin Zip File) to /wp-content/plugins/bp-album/css/

Sorry for delayed answer

janvier at 01:03 on 1 June 2009

First off, Manoj thank you! Seriously. . .thank you!

Secondly, I think the sitewide activity would actually make the plugin even more fun.

Is there anyway to make the pictures “private” to some users and accessible to others? Other than that, I am very impressed!

gianni at 05:26 on 1 June 2009

Hi,
Great Plugin Thank you for developing. I was able to instal version 0.001 from the plugin browser I followed the instructions in the readme file,but i can not to see the page of pictures , the error page is access denied. What could be the problem? . I’m currently running WPMU 2.71 with buddypress 1.0. the link is
http://community.codingweb.it/members/admin/album

thank you for help.

Don Valdez at 08:04 on 1 June 2009

Thank you for your response Mr. Kumar. I was able to fix it by moving the bp-album dir and placing it in the \plugins directory. it was originally installed under wp-content\plugins\bbpicture-album\bp-album now i moved whatever was in bbpicture-album to parent dir making it wp-content/plugins/bp-album… i originally installed it automatically through the wpmu pludin browser page. dont know why it installed it that way. anyhow, it seems to be fixed now. thank you again for the plug-in and hoping to see more developments from you.

slaFFik at 12:11 on 1 June 2009

Hi!
It’s great plugin with great future! I’ve translated it into Russian.
I’m sure, that most of the people don’t know how to translate plugins via po/mo files so I’m confident that you do need one language locale to all files of your plugin. It will make people like me easier to translate and thousands of others to use it. So here is the link to files with my Russian translation plus all plugin’s files where I changed ‘buddypress’ or “buddypress” locale to ‘bp-album’:
cosydale.com/public/bp-album.zip
Hope, it will be useful for you.
Best wishes

Manoj Kumar at 17:53 on 1 June 2009

@slaFFik

Thanks for your contribution.

slaFFik at 15:50 on 2 June 2009

Do you know that in any browser except FF &lsaquo on single picture page is not look like “<” but just as a text “&lsaquo”? The same is in IE.
Words “Picture Wire” on the same page could not be translated via mo files. I don’t know why. Code seems to be ok, but it doesn’t work.

Aran at 19:02 on 2 June 2009

Thank you very much for this super plug-in…:-) I particularly like the automatic resizing of images – excellent work.

One small question – under sitewide activity, a comment on a picture comes up as ‘wrote on the wire of picture’ – with the word ‘picture’ a link (neat). Would it be possible to change the word ‘picture’ to the picture’s title?

Adrian at 21:14 on 2 June 2009

Hello,
I’ve just tried installing your plugin but when i activate it sitewide my site breaks and i get a load of http 500 errors. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Symm2112 at 00:05 on 3 June 2009

Hello Manoj,
I am having problems getting the plugin to work. I have the same problem as gianni with a “not found/no access” when I try to go into the album. I can upload files ok and can see them in the database, I just can’t see the album itself.Any ideas? Is this a permission problem somewhere?

Manoj Kumar at 00:31 on 3 June 2009

@Symm2112

Please check following

Your plugin location should be like

1. wp-content/plugins/bp-album.php
2. wp-content/plugins/bp-album/bp-album-admin.php
3. wp-content/plugins/bp-album/bp-album-classes.php
4. wp-content/plugins/bp-album/bp-album-cssjs.php
5. wp-content/plugins/bp-album/bp-album-notifications.php
6. wp-content/plugins/bp-album/bp-album-templatetags.php
7. and other folders…..

Move album folder to wp-content/bp-themes/bpmember
it should look like

1. wp-content/bp-themes/bpmember/album/pictures.php
2. wp-content/bp-themes/bpmember/album/post-form.php
3. wp-content/bp-themes/bpmember/album/post-list.php
4. wp-content/bp-themes/bpmember/album/single.php

Manoj Kumar at 00:37 on 3 June 2009

@Aran

Thanks for the suggestion, I will definitely look into this in future version.

Manoj Kumar at 00:39 on 3 June 2009

@Adrian

This seems server or database related issue, please check your server error log files.

Symm2112 at 00:43 on 3 June 2009

I’ve confirmed everything but I still get that “Permission Denied” error. This seems like a GREAT plugin and this is a brand new installation that I’ve just created today. I also have some other questions about some help with Buddypress. Could you please contact me at cmonci at swbell dot net? I would greatly appreciate it. I’m working on this site for my wife and she wants to launch asap.

Thanks again for all your work.

Symm2112 at 00:53 on 3 June 2009

Note to others. IF you are using a different theme, make sure you upload the album folder to that directory, instead of the default theme. I’m sure others knew that but I wanted to make sure that everything was correct, so I followed the instructions to the letter, not realizing that my wife had chosen a different member theme.

Sorry about the confusion.

kunal at 13:11 on 3 June 2009

Manoj,

Thanks for developing this much needed plugin. I have a couple of suggestions.

1) I noticed that there is no adjustable settings yet. Is there any way to restrict the size of the uploaded images within the code?
2) I would love to see this integrated with flickr so that members have the option to pull in their flickr (or picasa) photos instead of reuploading them again.

Manoj Kumar at 13:48 on 3 June 2009

@kunal

Thanks for suggestions.

1) It takes upload size from core itself, So you can make adjustments to wp-admin/wpmu-options.php Max upload file size
2) There are other plugins available for flickr etc. But its a good idea to implement :)

Kunal at 19:19 on 3 June 2009

I was just going to ask you about the core upload size myself :) .
I really like the way this plugin is integrated into buddypress. Are you currently working on any other plugins?

Don Valdez at 20:13 on 3 June 2009

Mr. Kumar,

When going through the gallery pictures im supposed to see “” (next). I see these displayed normally under fire fox and safari however in IE7, instead of “<” i see a big “&lsaquo” how do i fix this for IE7? I’m sorry I’m not a pro developer but if you coupld point me in the right direction, I’m sure it would help.

Thank you again!

Stef at 20:32 on 3 June 2009

What an amazing plugin! I am so very impressed with this! Well done. one question from my side. How would i be able to adjust the color of the font under the pictures?

[...] Das Album wurde vom alten Hauklotz Manjo Kumar erstellt, er selber nennt die Version 0.001. .. was soviel bedeutet wie unausgegoren-neugeboren.  Ich konnte deswegen bis jetzt noch nicht rausfinden, was die maximalen Bildgrößen für den Upload sind bzw. können noch keine Einstellungen des Albums vorgenommen werden. Uns Manjo wird sich sicherlich noch moven um aus Vers. 0.001 ne 1 zu machen. Manjos Blog >> [...]

Manoj Kumar at 22:32 on 3 June 2009

@Don Valdez

I have made some changes to the plugin, You can download and test the same from here

Note : Its still a test version

Manoj Kumar at 22:33 on 3 June 2009

@Stef

You can make these changes in album.css

anointed at 01:04 on 4 June 2009

A huge thank you!
Installed with no problems at all.

suggestion:
Possible to add vivazoom to this?
http://mediatricks.biz/wordpress-plugins/thumbnail-plugins/viva-zoom-viva-thumbs-pro/

I use it on my news blog and absolutely love this little addon

bug report:
When a ‘ is put in the title of the picture it shows up as \’ on the album page photo title

question:
How to edit the title/description after it’s uploaded?

anointed at 01:09 on 4 June 2009

Are there plans in the future to allow users to create albums in order to organize their pictures?

How about private galleries that only friends can see?

still lovin this plugin, it’s fantastic!

anointed at 01:20 on 4 June 2009

request:
for SEO, I just checked and when I view a photo page itself, I am getting my H1 tag as my blog name instead of the photo title.

Could you change it around a bit so that the H1 is the photo title, and h2 is description?

I’m thinking this would help the SEO a huge amount.

nicolagreco at 02:34 on 4 June 2009

The plugin looks nice, congrats!
The only bad thing, using this plugin now, when the official one will be added to BuddyPress, the photo users have added will be not supported by the built-in one,

Nicola

Juan at 05:08 on 4 June 2009

Hey, great plug in! I want to say thanks, because I think this is a great idea, I mean, developing your own plug in instead of waiting the release of the “official” one.
I was just wondering if there’s an easy way to list ALL images, I mean, like a common list including all users pictures.
Thanks again.

Guy at 05:09 on 4 June 2009

What a great plugin!

Pressyt at 06:37 on 4 June 2009

Hello!
Great plugin!!! But i have problems. I install this like instructions says.
I am unable to upload files (photos), but page with photos doesn’t worh. I see message:

Not Found / No Access

The page you are looking for either does not exist, or you do not have the permissions to access it.

Thanks in advance for help!
Regards
Pressyt

Pressyt at 06:39 on 4 June 2009

above should be: i am able to uploads photos

David at 07:53 on 4 June 2009

Can’t get it working. Everything is installed in the correct location. I’m using the non beta version. Anytime I try to upload I get this error:

Catchable fatal error: Object of class WP_Error could not be converted to string in /Users/davidlewis/Sites/wpmu/wp-content/plugins/bp-album.php on line 321

David at 07:59 on 4 June 2009

Alternately… the browser will just spin and nothing happens.

Mark at 08:20 on 4 June 2009

Great plugin! I installed the test version 0023, and noticed that in Firefox for Mac the photos aren’t in three columns, just one. Is there a way to change this? Here’s the link: http://asgemi.com/members/admin/album

Mark at 08:27 on 4 June 2009

Last thing; I also noticed in the test version that the album icon doesn’t appear. Should I install the old version, or can I fix?

Manoj Kumar at 12:23 on 4 June 2009

@anointed

Sure, I will look into this

Manoj Kumar at 12:24 on 4 June 2009

@nicolagreco

Yes Nicola you are right.

Manoj Kumar at 12:25 on 4 June 2009

@Juan

Yes, widgets are in plan :)

Manoj Kumar at 12:26 on 4 June 2009

@David

I will look into this.

Manoj Kumar at 12:31 on 4 June 2009

@Mark

Its seems album.css issue, please try by replacing it again, also check your folder location.

gpo at 14:39 on 4 June 2009

First of all, we all should buy this guru a beer if he drinks it..LOL
Great work, Looks cool not installed it yet.
But, Can you make a tag of photos and make a private feature for friends etc & also twitter them like twitpic ?

gpo at 14:53 on 4 June 2009

Oh yea.. It needs a report abuse button to report to admin
view counter
rate this photo
Good work anyway

David Lewis at 18:39 on 4 June 2009

@Manoj… the error has to do with the thumbnail generation portion of your script. I’m testing on a local environment on Mac OS X using the built-in PHP that comes with Leopard. That PHP build doesn’t include the GD Library. I’m assuming that is the issue. I’ll try to install GD and see if that fixes it.

p.s. the str_replace error is thown on small images… brower just spins for big images.

alva at 18:53 on 4 June 2009

@Manoj Kumar

Why do you force users to write picture name and description?
Can we manage Bulk upload ?

Will be nice to consider

David Lewis at 19:17 on 4 June 2009

Ok… I have the GD Library installed and working now. I no longer get the string replace error when attempting to upload small images… but it’s still not working :( The browser busy cursor just keeps spinning and it appears not to ever upload. however, when I check in wp-content/blogs.dir/…. the files are actually there inside the “album” folder. Not sure what else to check or try.

Manoj Kumar at 19:26 on 4 June 2009

@gpo

Thanks for the suggestions, I will look into this.

David Lewis at 19:28 on 4 June 2009

Okay. It’s working now. I’m pretty sure the string replace error was because of my lack of GD… but the other issue (uploads stalling) had something to do with the directory I was uploading FROM. Very odd. I moved my sample images to the desktop and now they upload. After a bunch of tests… it seems to me that if the image you are trying to upload lives inside a folder named “images”… the upload stalls. I’d be interested to know if anyone can replicate this.

Manoj Kumar at 19:29 on 4 June 2009

@David Lewis

I am trying to reproduce your error, but its working fine at my mac.
Is it possible for you to try on any other computer or host?

Manoj Kumar at 19:35 on 4 June 2009

@David Lewis

It might be related to the folder permissions also :)

Try by moving images to your folder (loggedin user)

svenl77 at 23:39 on 4 June 2009

Great plug-in!
I have one question. Will you add the possibility to add album’s to groups?

Marty Note at 00:56 on 5 June 2009

Hey Manoj,
On our install of the plugin, the wire posts for a picture are posting and pulling from the groups_wire table. Have you encountered anything like this in the past or know why it could be doing that?

Jody at 06:38 on 5 June 2009

Manoj I’m getting the same Not Found / No Access error. Moving files as you suggest causes the plugin to disappear.

Now, my theme is in wp-content/bp-themes/doorQcom bpmember/.

Do I need to change something in the files themselves to get this to work?

don valdez at 09:12 on 5 June 2009

I believe i’ve seen mr. Kumar’s import export plugin for users.

The reason why I mention this is because, in anticipation of the actual buddypress album, I’m hoping mr. Kumar will write a plugin to import the albums.

I’s great that this is developed at a very early point in time. at least we have an album to use. and who knows, perhaps by the time the built-in one comes out, the developmet of this particular album may have advanced to a point that some features may be better and therefore give users the option to chose what type of album to use on their bp installs. on the other hand, in the spirit of open-source, a collaborative work on the built in one will make a transition to the built-in one practically seamless.

Am I making sense?

Anyhow, thank you again, Mr. Kumar for this plugin. the 0023 version fixed the &lasaquo (prev button/link) display.

Hoping for future improvements.

Manoj Kumar at 12:46 on 5 June 2009

@Jody

Please check following

Your plugin location should be like

1. wp-content/plugins/bp-album.php
2. wp-content/plugins/bp-album/bp-album-admin.php

4. wp-content/plugins/bp-album/bp-album-cssjs.php
5. wp-content/plugins/bp-album/bp-album-notifications.php
6. wp-content/plugins/bp-album/bp-album-templatetags.php
7. and other folders…..

Move album folder to wp-content/bp-themes/bpmember
it should look like

1. wp-content/bp-themes/bpmember/album/pictures.php
2. wp-content/bp-themes/bpmember/album/post-form.php

@Marty Note

No, I haven’t faced this issue.

Manoj Kumar at 12:48 on 5 June 2009

@svenl77

I Will try to share a album or picture with a group.

Stefan at 19:58 on 5 June 2009

Dear Manoj,

Thank you so much! This plugin is just wonderful! I installed it right away.

Here are my suggestions for future releases:
1. widget for the frontpage (and maybe even for the subdomain blogs)
2. Show pics in the the users profile
3. Tags for pictures
4. Possibility to create albums

And one idea which I am not quite sure if it makes sense: to connect your plugin and the pics which users upload in their blog. i.e. a pic which a user uploads via nextgen gallery could also popup on the profile page…

Cheers
Stefan

Bertrand at 20:21 on 5 June 2009

Hi,

i’m testing your plugin. Uploads works great, and photos are in well uploaded. But i cannot see album, “Permission Denied” :
http://clermontois.net/members/admin/album/picture

I check folders, everything is ok. Well, where must i search ?

Thanks

Manoj Kumar at 01:16 on 6 June 2009

@Bertrand

Check your wp-content/bp-themes there should a album folder

Jody at 02:03 on 6 June 2009

Manoj, when I understood your post, I slapped my head and made the Homer Simpson “D’Oh!” exclamation.

It works now.

One add-on for your list of improvements: “Report this image.” That would be of immense help, incase someone uploads something inappropriate for the standards of the blog.

Bertrand at 03:12 on 6 June 2009

Manoj, you’re right. I putted this folder in the wrong theme. Now it works great

anointed at 06:38 on 7 June 2009

Manoj: Just in case you are not aware there is a great thread about your plugin at http://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=3024

Already lots of compliments and requests.

Kunal at 14:40 on 8 June 2009

Does the plugin work with the recent BP 1.0.1 update? Just want to make sure before I upgrade my BP.

Also can you give us a brief of enchancements that you are working on and expected ETA?

Thanks!

Hi Manoj

Great plugin!

Is there a way to add a small icon in the column with albums in it when viewing a profile? If so how?

Hi again Manoj

Apologies i saw a previous comment with the same question asked, although i have reuploaded the album.css file its still not showing?

Chuck at 03:38 on 12 June 2009

manoj, you probably already know this because everyone else is praising you.. but YOU ROCK dude! myself along with everyone else cannot wait until end of 2009 for the official album. i would hope they seriously consider just adding your plugin as the official album plugin!!

Alex at 22:46 on 12 June 2009

Great plugin Manoj, group integration would be great though…is there also maybe a way to upload a pdf also? Thinking in terms of showing a link in the album to a file of interest…keep up the good work anyway!

Manoj Kumar at 22:50 on 12 June 2009

Thanks for using my plugin

Yes, you can add files as well but for that we have make a new plugin :)

Seems a good idea.

Alex at 18:43 on 13 June 2009

Was thinking along the lines of the wordpress image uploader, which saves the file on the server and inserts html code (e.g. dogs) into the article as a link to the pdf “dogs”

gpo at 22:06 on 13 June 2009

What about the delete album or per photo & also tag photo?

Paul at 03:05 on 14 June 2009

thanks for the awesome plugin it work without any hassle apart from the small icon does not show I have check wp-content/plugins/bp-album/images/album-wire.png and the pic is there but it just doesent show up

Thanks MAnoj K for this great plugin. I have the translation for spanish language of bpalbum. Its ready for download in http://www.coloresonline.com/descargas/bpalbum-langs-es_ES.zip
Thanks for all.. I hope it can be usefull.

Mark at 18:00 on 23 June 2009

Hi Manoj, I’ve been using your plugin for a few weeks now, and a couple users have experienced some issues with not being able to upload photos. They even gave me their login credentials, and I wasn’t able to upload for them either, although I can upload photos. My website link is here: http://asgemi.com – any suggestion would be great!

Mark at 18:29 on 23 June 2009

Manoj, just a quick update…Is there a max file size for the photo? 500kb-150kb seems won’t upload. I just tried an image that was 36kb and it uploaded okay.

Manoj Kumar at 19:33 on 23 June 2009

@ Mark : It takes upload size from core itself, So you can make adjustments to wp-admin/wpmu-options.php Max upload file size.

If you need any other help, please let me know :)

Ma at 20:11 on 23 June 2009

@Manoj – Thanks for the quick response! wpmu-options.php file size is set at 300 kb and says – (’fileupload_maxk’, 300) ?>” size=”5″. Some of the images were below 300k, and still couldn’t upload. Should I change this to 600k or higher? Does the size=”5″ have any significance?

Manoj Kumar at 21:11 on 23 June 2009

@Ma

Try by entering some large value like 1500 or so & then start reducing.

Mark at 23:44 on 23 June 2009

@ Manoj – I changed the settings to 1500, and tried to upload a photo that was 700 kb, and it didn’t work. It only seems that if the photo is smaller than 100 kb that it will upload. Is there anything else that I can do? Thanks!

Manoj Kumar at 10:22 on 24 June 2009

@ Mark : May I know your php upload limit?

biegun at 14:35 on 24 June 2009

hi, about a code:
album/picture is a list of images so I propose to make here some ul and li instead of div for each photo.

biegun at 14:36 on 24 June 2009

hi, about a code:
album/picture is a list of images so I propose to make here some ul and li instead of div for each photo. br and div class clear are also unnecessary – we have styles…

Manoj Kumar at 16:21 on 24 June 2009

@ Biegun : Thanks for the suggestion.

Luis Alves at 15:44 on 29 June 2009

moeppy01 at 03:29 on 15 July 2009

hi, upload successful, aktivation successful, pic upload in profile successful (the pics uploaded to the server) but the album page looks like that:

Not Found / No Access

The page you are looking for either does not exist, or you do not have the permissions to access it.

i hope you can help me

Manoj Kumar at 10:48 on 15 July 2009

@ Biagui : Can I have your blog URL?

Manoj Kumar at 10:50 on 15 July 2009

@moeppy01 : Have you placed album folder in your members theme directory? Please check.

moeppy01 at 14:32 on 15 July 2009

shit… thats it… i only placed it in the bpmember folder.
now it works an its GREAT!!!!

Mike at 15:35 on 16 July 2009

Great plugin! If you add the taggin function is simpy the best!

jcwynford at 13:02 on 17 July 2009

hi… just wondered if this plugin enables a user to organize their photos in folders as well..

Manoj Kumar at 13:18 on 17 July 2009

@jcwynford : It automatically organize photos in wp-content/blogs.dir/1/files/album//

jcwynford at 13:24 on 17 July 2009

oh yes, sorry, I mean on the member’s page where you upload pictures, if a user can add a folder and pile up/organize images being uploaded. I’m not sure if you can understand what I mean, I hope you do ^_^

Manoj Kumar at 13:27 on 17 July 2009

@jcwynford : I think you’re talking about creating multiple albums which contains pictures only related to that album. Is that what you mean?

jcwynford at 14:16 on 17 July 2009

hi, yes that’s it…

Mala at 21:18 on 17 July 2009

Hi Manoj, I’ve been trying to get your plugin to work on my site but I’m getting that “Not Found/No Access” I’ve done everything I think the way you said – so I’m not sure what’s wrong
Can you please help me?

Mala at 22:04 on 17 July 2009

@Symm2112 you saved the day! Thank you! Wish I had read your post earlier. If you have a different theme installed be sure to put the /album folder there! will save you a tonne of time trying to figure out what the hec is going wrong.

Web Hosting Review at 09:45 on 18 July 2009

Anyone know if there’s anything like coppermine for buddypress?

Mike at 03:49 on 21 July 2009

I am quite new to buddypress, so my problem might be an obvious one, but while I can see bpPicture Album in my plugin menu as activated, it’s not showing up on my settings menu, so isn’t showing on the blog. What else do I need to do? Thanks!

Manoj Kumar at 10:30 on 21 July 2009

@Mike : Can I see your url?

mt at 11:25 on 23 July 2009

@Web Hosting Review: I’d suggest to avoid coppermine and also gallery2 – its a terrible complicated mess (at least imho) try zenphoto (http://www.zenphoto.org) this has something like a api, maybe you could build something to make it work with buddypress. :)

Avaz Ibragimov at 12:04 on 27 July 2009

Hey,

Thanks for the great job.

Can we expect group albums and also info in sitewide activiy wire about new added pictures?

graduatebuddy at 05:23 on 29 July 2009

hey,
thanks and great job had it installed at my BuddyPress install, wonder why guys at BuddyPress didn’t mention it when announcing they want to create a plugin for images

graduatebuddy at 05:43 on 29 July 2009

support is shaky…! for bppicture album i mean just check your buddypress install’s plugin against http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bppicture-album/installation/ guidelines directories specified don’t match correct that

Dark at 19:04 on 29 July 2009

This is a great plugin thank you. I had the common permission error until I moved the album into the theme I was using then no problems.

Where can I change the color of the background the pictures sit on? I have a black theme and the white does not match on my site. Thank you for making this for us!

Manoj Kumar at 22:38 on 29 July 2009

@Dark : There is a file album.css under bp-album/css you can change colors from there.

pieter at 13:17 on 30 July 2009

Thanks for the great plugin! If you delete a picture, the pictures are still there on the file system, is there a way to delete them. Or what’s the best place to write some code to do so? Thanks a lot!

Manoj Kumar at 14:53 on 31 July 2009

@pieter : You can write code in album_delete_picture() function under bp-album.php

pieter at 15:43 on 31 July 2009

Thanks for the response Manoj! I will have a try this weekend!

Marius Ooms at 01:52 on 1 August 2009

Hi manoj, have you experienced yet with records to the activity stream? If you haven’t, I’m wanting to give it a go. So if you have some code lying around that works, could you colaborate?

Marius Ooms at 01:59 on 1 August 2009

I realize when people upload many pictures it could take over the activity stream. However coming bp 1.1 the activity stream will have an aggregation function to group similair entries within a time frame. See the bp roadmap for details.

So I think activity stream items would be a great feature, but only if a thumbnail could be shown. As the saying goes, a picture speaks a thousand words. *cheesy*

Harshpal at 18:29 on 2 August 2009

Hi Manoj, i really like this plugin but i cannot see my own pictures. it says Not Found / No Access . How can i make this work ? I cant see many other options shown in the screenshots

Manoj Kumar at 09:42 on 3 August 2009

@Harshpal : Move album directory to your members theme.

Anto io Furtado at 11:00 on 3 August 2009

Hi, Manoj great plugin, really a necessitiy…but wanted to know if der can be an albums widget for maybe latest albums or latest posts?

Manoj Kumar at 11:01 on 3 August 2009

@Anto io Furtado : No, Currently its not thr

Harshpal at 20:53 on 3 August 2009

Thanks a ton manoj

heaversm at 03:25 on 6 August 2009

Get this error on the pictures tab even though I am logged in as myself:

Not Found / No Access

The page you are looking for either does not exist, or you do not have the permissions to access it. – have you fixed this yet? Upload works fine. Thanks!

Manoj Kumar at 11:10 on 6 August 2009

@heaversm : Pls move album folder to your members theme directory.

Giorgiotave at 20:53 on 6 August 2009

It is possible change the resize size of pictures? Now the Max is 600 (widht).

I Want to make 1024 in widht

Guido at 21:24 on 6 August 2009

Hi there,
Are you planning to add a functionality to add multiple albums. For example “Summer 2009 album” and “Winter holiday”?

Manoj Kumar at 10:44 on 7 August 2009

@Giorgiotave : Yes, you can do this by changing $mid_size = 600; to $mid_size = 1024; in bp-album.php

Manoj Kumar at 10:45 on 7 August 2009

@Guido : Yes, It will be there in next version.

Matthias at 13:57 on 8 August 2009

when will the new version be released?

Giorgiotave at 19:55 on 8 August 2009

Thanks Manoj ;)

Benny at 05:49 on 12 August 2009

Great Plugin!
Do you plan to link it with the event plugin, so user can upload a album expecially to an event?
So that in an event all albums for that event are linked?

Greetings from Germany

IT IS Great.

PLease reply

marc g at 21:28 on 12 September 2009

Looks good cant wait to try it.

Neobond at 21:52 on 17 September 2009

Looks promising…does it only work for pictures or also for other types of files? Would be great to have kind of a bpFile Storage Plugin for groups and/or members. Cheers Nico

Chris at 08:23 on 18 September 2009

Hello Manoj,
thanks for this great plugin. I ´ve n problem with the design. It don´t lock like yours. So i think the album.css file is missing.

I uploaded it again from bp-album/css/album.css (Plugin Zip File) to /wp-content/plugins/bp-album/css/

But it don´t works better.

Please help me :)

chris at 08:26 on 18 September 2009

In my profile is also no album-icon????

Manoj Kumar at 10:40 on 18 September 2009

@Neobond: Thanks for the suggestion. But currently it works for pictures only.

Manoj Kumar at 10:50 on 18 September 2009

@chris: Please replace http://nauticpress.net/wp-content/plugins/bp-album/css/album.css file again as currently its not accessible and gives server error. Also have you moved album folder to your members theme like wp-content/bp-themes/bpmember
so it should look like ?

1. wp-content/bp-themes/bpmember/album/pictures.php
2. wp-content/bp-themes/bpmember/album/post-form.php
3. wp-content/bp-themes/bpmember/album/post-list.php
4. wp-content/bp-themes/bpmember/album/single.php

Chris at 12:03 on 18 September 2009

Thank you for this fast help. My member theme looks like this. I replaced the http://nauticpress.net/wp-content/plugins/bp-album/css/album.css file at the moment. Nothing changes.. :( Another idea?

Manoj Kumar at 12:12 on 18 September 2009
Roberto at 21:07 on 18 September 2009

Manoj Kumar at 22:45 on 18 September 2009

joe at 18:16 on 21 September 2009

Manoj Kumar at 18:29 on 22 September 2009

@joe, For that you have to create a widget or your own function.

damien at 13:02 on 25 September 2009

Will you be updating this plugin for the new version of BuddyPress that’s releasing sometime this month? As of right now it is incompatible.

Alexandr at 17:58 on 27 September 2009

Hi!
plans to develop plug-in? is there a version for Buddy Press 1.1 (2,3,4)?
I offer help to localize the plug on the Russian language – if it is 100% support through po-files

maszewo at 15:40 on 1 October 2009

Hi Manoj, we have Buddypress 1.1 final now and i just want to ask if you plan to make a version of bpPicture Album for 1.1. Would be soo great to know.. greets+thx

Vasi at 16:05 on 1 October 2009

Is it possible to update plugin for new release of Buddypress – 1.1?

Manoj Kumar at 16:29 on 1 October 2009

@All : I will update my plugin soon.

Vasi at 16:48 on 1 October 2009

GREAT!!!!! Thanks Manoj!!!

pieter at 16:23 on 2 October 2009

Hey Manoj,

You told me I could write code in album_delete_picture() function under bp-album.php for removing the picture files from the filesystem and not only from the database.
I have a stupid question, but how can I get pic_org_path_act in that function? I tried it with mysql_connect, pear DB (the technologies I know) but with no result. I searched on the web and found that I had to use $result = $wpdb->get_var(”SELECT pic_org_path_act FROM $wpdb->wp_bp_picture_data WHERE id = $picture_id”);
so I defined $wpdb global in this function… but with no result :-(
Can you tel me how to get pic_org_path_act in this function?

Many thanks!!!

Pieter

m2k13 at 12:13 on 3 October 2009

Hi Manoj, thanks for your excellent plugin. I hope it will be released in the 1.2 version of BP. I have a problem with the 1.1 update.

Felix Bruin at 13:40 on 5 October 2009

Pieter at 13:46 on 5 October 2009

Hey Manoj,

This works fine!! I was looking for these vars via a select query on the database, but I didn’t see this possibility.

Many many thanks!

Pieter

Manoj Kumar at 22:14 on 5 October 2009

@maszewo : I have made a fix by commenting some functionality. Please download latest files from and check. Thanks a lot for your testing support.

Felix Bruin at 23:19 on 5 October 2009

Whats the exact location to put the css file, to let the icon show up, if i copy evrything evry-where .. it wont still show up :|

dan at 05:25 on 6 October 2009

@felix bruin
i had the same issue. transform the png img into gif did the trick
i also placed according css into custom.css for all to work
li a#user-album, li a#my-album {
background: url(../images/album.gif) 92% 52% no-repeat;
margin-right: 17px;
}

#activity-list li.album {
background: url(../images/album-wire.gif) 0 4px no-repeat;
}

due to alignment problems i added the margin and modified the background position from 82% to 92%

i tried to translate your plugin. The pot file is ready but i couldn’t place any .mo somewhere, nothing works with setting locale.

dan at 05:53 on 6 October 2009

translations are missing
bp-album.php:492
bp-album.php:496
bp-album.php:500

Some expression are attributed to ‘bp-album’ for translation, but most of them are affected to ‘buddypress’
I set all expression to ‘buddypress’…
I made a .po witch did not work directly with the new version (yours and BP 1.1) – but worked well with prior versions
So a i put all the bp-album-xx_XX.po content into buddypress-xx_XX and this work for now.
Just a bit annoying to copy/paste the album stuff each time before/after i update the buddypress.po
A working set_locale for bppicture-album would be much appreciated.

Noush at 17:08 on 6 October 2009

I got an error when i am Activating this plugging
Fatal error: Call to undefined function bp_core_new_nav_item() in /htdocs/wp-content/plugins/bppicture-album/bp-album.php on line 138

Please Help Me

Manoj Kumar at 18:11 on 6 October 2009

@Noush : Please upgrade your BuddyPress.

Manoj Kumar at 18:13 on 6 October 2009

@dan : Thanks for the update.

Yes, you’re right its annoying me as well.

Felix Bruin at 18:43 on 6 October 2009

And at what location you put the: “custom.css” file ?

maszewo at 20:48 on 6 October 2009

Hey Manoj, ok the new files work well! Posting on imagewire works great now! Thanks a lot for your fast reaction.. :)

dan at 21:46 on 6 October 2009

@ manoj
i used this piece of code to translate andy’s latest plugin who is now working with .mo file
/* Load the language file */
if ( file_exists( dirname(__FILE__) . ‘/bp-groups-externalblogs/langs/bp-groups-externalblogs-’ . get_locale() . ‘.mo’ ) )
load_textdomain( ‘bp-groups-externalblogs’, dirname(__FILE__) . ‘/bp-groups-externalblogs/langs/bp-groups-externalblogs-’ . get_locale() . ‘.mo’ );

i replaced “bp-groups-externalblogs” by “bppicture-album” but this did not work in your plugin.
Same with the path “bppicture-album/bp-album/bp-album…..mo” also don’t work.
Is the path false or to deep ?

Zach at 22:11 on 6 October 2009

Hi Manoj,
Thanks for a great plugin!
After upgrading to buddypress 1.1 I’m getting the error on single picture pages:
Fatal error: Cannot access empty property in bp-wire-templatetags.php on line 26

Felix Bruin at 22:40 on 6 October 2009

Oke .. I’ve got it now … I’ve put the whole BP-Album css into the custom.css file (had to uncomment it first!) .. And now it works just fine! :D

david at 00:17 on 7 October 2009

Missing icon for Album and No Wire available – I have the latest buddypress and I have your latest download and i am missing the icon for Album and users can’t comment on photos. Am I missing something?

Ray at 03:01 on 7 October 2009

Hi Manoj, I notice there’s a new version of the plugin up on the Wordpress plugin repository.

Is there any plans to maintain compatibility for those using BP < 1.1?

david at 04:47 on 7 October 2009

I got the styles to work by copying the style sheet album.css to bp-default/styles.css file but I can’t get it to find the album.png and album-wire.png icons

Jeff at 09:01 on 7 October 2009

@Manoj – The “page missing’ error when you hit the /members//album/ link appears to be due to a maximum redirect error in mod_rewrite. Unfortunately I’m not sure what is causing the redirect loop though. I’m using a fresh BP1.1 with your latest plugin version (0.1.1) from the WP site.

dan at 14:15 on 7 October 2009

@david
sometimes it works better to convert .png to .gif
if you changed the path of your css file, i would be better you change also the path to your images.
Anyway, modifying style.css is not a good idea because of next update of your buddypress, it will be overwwritten.
Css changes can (and should) be made into custom.css. If not exist,, create it. This file goes here:
wp-content/themes/bp-default/_inc/css

Deepanshu Goel at 00:44 on 8 October 2009

hi Manoj, thanx for providing such a beautiful feature.
though i don’t know y but i hv a problems that album icon is missing

steve at 01:03 on 8 October 2009

I’m running Buddypress 1.0.2 with WPMU 2.8.4a. After I uploaded the plugin and activated it, I just get a blank screen. Do I have to shift the files around like in the readme file instructions? I thought those instructions were just for version 1.1
Thank you for your help!!!

Noush at 19:06 on 8 October 2009

Now I install bppicture-album.0.001with my buddy press 1.0, Everything is ok but I cudn’t see Images in the page But Image title displayed. How I can fix this error , Please Help me

Martha at 21:40 on 9 October 2009

Same here. I just installed BuddyPress yesterday, so I have the latest version. I can upload pictures, but I get error messages when I click Album and the pictures, and Page Not Found when I click to see uploaded pictures. You can have admin access if you need to see…

Manoj Kumar at 10:49 on 12 October 2009

@Martha : It seems that its because of the theme you’re using. You have to edit your current theme to resolve this. Please let me know if you need any help.

Vas at 15:08 on 12 October 2009

hi,
after installing updated buddy and bpPicture album the only problem that i did’n see uploadet picture. All i see is “The page you were looking for was not found.” ..Oh, and another thing – very annoying “Please log in and add widgets to this column. Add Widgets” in the middle of screen..

I use default theme of BP.

Vasi at 15:36 on 12 October 2009

Sorry, my mistake…Read the Read.me, pals ;-)

Evnt at 21:47 on 12 October 2009

I think I have the same pb that @Noush

http://bacasable.eoliss.com/socialHalorigine/members/admin/album/

I see the title but the picture is inivisible -> right click -> show image -> 404 — File not found.

Jeff at 23:33 on 13 October 2009

@Manoj: Seems a lot of people are falling into the trap of not reading the readme.txt file (myself included). Maybe it would be a good idea to add a check in the plugin itself to ensure that the “album” directory has been created/moved into either the bp-sn-parent theme directory.

Just as a note, I’m not sure that you should be moving anything into the bp-sn-parent directory. A more appropriate location might be to move the “album” directory into the current active theme directory. At the same time, I’m hopeful your plugin will get included as part of BP1.2 and no directory moving will be required then! :)

janvierdesigns at 17:14 on 15 October 2009

@Steve: I had the same issue. I checked and it requires php5-gd . After I installed it, everything worked fine. You may be in the same loophole

Laurie at 15:03 on 16 October 2009

I don’t understand your .txt :

So, you move the “album” directory out of /bppicture-album/ and place it into /wp-contents/bp-themes/bpmember/.

With BP 1.1.1 wp-content/bp-theme/bp-member doesn’t exist…

I’m not english, may be a tutorial with screenshot or video will be helpfull.

thx

Manoj Kumar at 15:10 on 16 October 2009

@Laurie : In bp 1.1.1 you have to move “album” folder to bp-sn-parent theme.

Laurie at 15:22 on 16 October 2009

K i success to.

I think you have to change “/bp-themes/bpmember/” by “/”the theme yourare using”

Good continuation ;)

anna at 15:42 on 16 October 2009

hi manoj,
thanks for your great plugin.
i have the issue nominated b4 by others that the pictures in /members/xxx/album are showing a 404.
i traced it down to the fact that i got buddypress installed on a 2ndary blog (in order to allow a different (wordpress) theme on the main blog. the album is searching for the image on “http://xxx.com/community/wp-content/…” in my case (whereas /community/ is the root dir of buddy press but not the root dir of wordpress as i explained before).
how can i set the picture path to root – or strip out “community” via modrewrite?
thanks a million
anna.

rawi rai at 14:45 on 21 October 2009

CrazyCreator at 05:01 on 22 October 2009

sascha at 03:39 on 23 October 2009

Hi @ all:

Warning: call_user_func_array() [function.call-user-func-array]: First argument is expected to be a valid callback, ” was given in …

what else can i do ???
thanks for your great work and help :-)

Valilenk at 18:35 on 25 October 2009

Hi, great plugin, but it could be much better with opportunity to vote for photos and widget with the best photo of the day. I don’t know how to do it myself, because don’t know enough in php.

Richard at 23:07 on 25 October 2009

Hey,

Love the album plugin. I wold like to know if you can add an “edit picture” link next to the Delete picture link. I would like to be able to edit the name and description of the picture after it’s saved.

Nick at 08:55 on 27 October 2009

Hi Manoj, Great plugin – I used it in development and it worked great. I’m now getting ‘There were problems saving your information’ like amit reported previously. Where should I start to fix that? See http://xpdnews.com/users/admin/album

Thanks heaps.

Pieter at 16:14 on 27 October 2009

Just found out there is a little layout problem in BB1.1.2
The upload page is ok, but the layout messes up in the album/picture view. Also the album link in a member-menu (not in ME menu) is not correct. Is this a common problem or do other people have the same one?

Thanks!

Daniele at 15:58 on 28 October 2009

Hi, I’ve made Italian localization files. If you give me an email I’ll send you mo and po files.

Thanks

teejay at 04:57 on 29 October 2009

The image gets uploaded succesfully but when I see the album there is no pic and it says :

The page you were looking for was not found.

Alex at 14:54 on 30 October 2009

Hi Manoj,

Thanks for the plugin, I’m using the 0023 version on http://tetalab.org and it’s working almost greatly :)

I’ve made some modification to comply with the last version of Buddypress 1.1.1, and the changes are available in our git repository:

http://github.com/alx/Tetalab

Do you have your code in some control version so we could work on the same branch?

Looking forward to get some update on this plugin ;)

Alex

levin at 18:54 on 30 October 2009

nice plugin! thanks!! And I’d suggest the picture upload directory goes into their blog id in $blogs.dir instead of main blog, it would be great if the quota managing by blog settings.

have a nice day!

Maher at 00:05 on 2 November 2009

Hello, i am not a programmer, all i know is that i bought buddypress installed with hosting from tmdhosting, so can you be kind and install the photo plugin for me? because i dont know how to do it :)

Thanks

Scott Dickens at 20:59 on 4 November 2009

I’ve uploaded the plugin, and moved the “album” folder to “bp-sn-parent” in themes. The functionality seems to work, but when I upload the picture, my album isn’t updated and I don’t see the image anywhere on my server. What have I got mis-configured? Running BP 1.1.2 and Mu 2.8.5.2

Any help would be appreciated.

Scott

Andrea at 09:41 on 5 November 2009

Can’t post to a picture’s wire (although I can post to comments wire just fine). Get the error “Wire message could not be posted.” Help! Otherwise I LOVE this plugin, and I really want to get wire comments working so I can launch my new site.

Manoj Kumar at 11:00 on 5 November 2009

@Daniele : Sent in a mail.

Manoj Kumar at 11:01 on 5 November 2009

@teejay : Please check image in your FTP.

Manoj Kumar at 11:06 on 5 November 2009

@Scott Dickens @Andrea : Can I see your url?

Arron at 15:49 on 5 November 2009

DO you know what wiget to show latest picture on homepage?

Scott Dickens at 19:44 on 5 November 2009

The domain is http://hoopsjones.com (still in development obviously). Also, the preview icons for the application aren’t displaying, and as of this morning, when I select “Album” from my profile I get this message as the plugin crashes:

Warning: call_user_func_array() [function.call-user-func-array]: First argument is expected to be a valid callback, ” was given in /home/content/h/o/o/hoopsjones/html/wp-includes/plugin.php on line 414

???? Thanks for the help. Love the concept of this plugin and can’t wait to get it running!

Juanma Guerrero at 17:25 on 6 November 2009

Hi! It seems to be a great plugin but in my BuddyPress Instalation (v1.1.2 on WPMU 2.8.4) It doesn’t let me post wire comments and throws a Fatal Error when I go to the Album section in my profile, also the pictures I upload (that works fine) are shown without any css design (just the square thumbnails) and one on top of the screen and the rest at the bottom :/

I know you did not updated your plugin for the latest version of BP, so I beg you to do so all new users can enjoy this great plugin you have made. Picture Albums are some basic social web component and I hope soon your plugin will be joining the BP “package” by default :)

Thanks for your help and dedication!

PD: If it won’t be updated soon, could you recomend me what version of WPMU and BuddyPress is the latest supported? Thank you so much!

Juanma Guerrero at 17:29 on 6 November 2009

Sorry, I forgot to mention: I’m using the new beta version since I read in lots of blogs that would work better in latest versions of BP, and fixes a few bugs :) thx!

Shannon at 02:07 on 7 November 2009

DUDE I LOVE YOU!!!
keep it up my man!
xoxo

Ricardo Caiado at 05:00 on 7 November 2009

Same situation with me as described by Scott Dickens (WPMU 2.8.5.2, BP 1.1.2): picture nor uploaded.

Jay Schires at 07:42 on 7 November 2009

For anyone having css or album icon not showing…if you didnt upload the entire /bppicture-album and just uploaded the seperate folders, go into bp-album-cssjs.php on line 30-31 and remove the /bppicture-album from the path to the css…that fixed mine

Rahul Bansal at 19:17 on 9 November 2009

@All
I am not sure if I am allowed to post a link here but we have recently released a new buddypress-media component here…

http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-kaltura-media-component/

Thanks Manoj for your work. We got way too may inputs for our component from this page.

GibO at 20:27 on 9 November 2009

Sorry for my lillte english.

I’ve some problems with this plugin. I’m running BP 1.1.2 and wpmu 2.8.5.2 and i try to install bppicture-album 0.1.1 and it work with some problems of wire messages (offset positions). With beta version when i show a picture all the wire section not load..

I can’t paste my url becaus the site is under construction and it’s closed from internet.

When you finish your new version of plugin? If you give me .pot i can translate it on Italian Language.

Thank’s.

Andrea at 21:55 on 9 November 2009

Bump. URL is http://www.spinistry.com, scroll to bottom and enter password “reverendlee” (may have to enter it twice). If I turn comment wire on and try to post comment to picture it says “Wire message could not be posted.” If I turn comments wire off, when I view picture, at bottom it says “Fatal error: Call to undefined function bp_wire_title() in /home/spinistr/public_html/wp-content/themes/bp-sn-parent/album/post-list.php on line 2″

Andrea at 21:58 on 9 November 2009

Also, is there a way to display uploaded photos on the site wide feed? Thanks! :-)

Manoj Kumar at 13:29 on 10 November 2009

@Arron : Currently there is no widget for this.

Manoj Kumar at 13:31 on 10 November 2009

@Scott Dickens : I can see the warning on your site but I am not able to reproduce this on my development comp. But I looking to solve this asap.

Manoj Kumar at 13:34 on 10 November 2009

@Juanma Guerrero : Sure I will update it soon. Since I am the only one who is supporting this plugin, its very difficult for me to keep it up and running with every BP update.

Manoj Kumar at 13:35 on 10 November 2009

@Ricardo Caiado : Have you followed all steps mentioned in the readme.txt?

Manoj Kumar at 13:35 on 10 November 2009

@Jay Schires : Thanks for the help.

Manoj Kumar at 13:37 on 10 November 2009

@Rahul Bansal : Thanks for your contribution to BP community.

Manoj Kumar at 13:38 on 10 November 2009

@GibO : Don’t worry, I will look into this.

Manoj Kumar at 13:40 on 10 November 2009

@Andrea : Earlier it was there, but I have removed it just to make a fix to latest BP version. But soon it will be available.

Andrea at 20:28 on 10 November 2009

Thanks! Now, how about my comment wire error?

Andrea at 22:00 on 10 November 2009

Got the picture wire working…had to manually create bp_picture_wire table in the database.
