  • Is it possible to integrate lightbox js with zenpress?
  • It's finally done: ZenPress 2.1 is out.

    ZenPress 2.1 has been tested on Wordpress 2.1 and should be perfectly compatible. It is NOT ANYMORE compatible with previous Wordpress versions, however.

    The most important changes have been made "behind the scenes". The most visible one is the possibility to configure all the popup options, so you don't have to go crazy clicking here and there every time you open the popup ;)

    As usual, let me know if you find any problems.
  • onetr1p: lightbox support is planned, but since it would be a major change it will have to wait a little more ;)
  • Hi! can anyone help me with my problem?

    May i know what would I put on

    Zenphoto base path and
    Zenphoto admin path:???

    Thank YOu..
    Please reply asap..
  • Zenphoto base path is the URL of your gallery (ex: http://deathstar.com/zenphoto)
    The admin path is the PATH of the Zenphoto admin folder (ex: /var/www/deathstar/zenphoto/zen).

    The admin path should be automatically guessed by ZenPress, anyway.
  • Thanks Simbul! iL give that a try!...
  • another thing..im sorry for being a noob..
    how would i know if zendpress gives me the admin path automatically??
  • Well, there's a javascript that will write the path in the text box while you write the URL above.
    Anyway, when you click on the button to update the options, the plugin will check the path to ensure it actually exist.
  • Simbul.. 2.1 does not work for me. I get a blank screen when I turn on the plugin. I realized that I have the older version of the plugin installed on another 2.1 WP installation and it appears to be working fine (same machine and configuration). Should I just install the older plugin?

    Thanks so much!

  • i have just installed this with the latest wordpress 2.1 and zenphoto 1.07 but I get a blank pop up page. The file path is showing as correct when I set it under options. Does anybody have any ideas on how to fix this please.
  • I'm using WP2.1 and ZP 1.07 and it works fine. Make sure that your "Zenphoto base path" is a url to your gallery and that your "Zenphoto admin path" is a path your admin, not the gallery.
  • Hey Gamedude
    I have the paths set as

    base path http://mysite/zenphoto and the
    admin path /home/twendysp/public_html/zenphoto/zen

    and I still get a blank pop up page. It says the path has been saved successfully.

    Not sure where I have gone wrong.
  • I as well have a working installation of zenpress 1.2 and wordpress 2.1 with zenphoto 1.0.7. It works fine for me (although the previous zenpress version worked as well - but I figured I'd upgrade since others were having trouble).

    The base and admin paths were correctly detected, although since it was an upgrade and not a clean installation, it's not the best test of this.

    @twendy- you might try turning off any other plugins you have installed and see if that doesn't correct the problem. sometimes plugins don't interact well in wordpress, and you might have a plugin that is interfering with zenpress.
  • I seem to be having the same problem as twendy. BRB, going to turn off all plugins except for Zenpress. Didn't fix it.

    I am using Zenpress 1.2, Wordpress 2.1, and Zenphoto 1.0.7. Zenphoto is working normally and my Wordpress installation is working normally too. I have configured the Zenpress options properly. I have this problem with any theme I try.

    Here is a copy and paste of the error I see inside of the Zenpress pop-up window:

    Warning: main(wp-content/plugins/wp-contact-formwp-admin/admin.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /mydomainsfolder/main/wp-content/plugins/zenpress/tinymce/popup_zp.php on line 41

    Fatal error: main() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'wp-content/plugins/wp-contact-formwp-admin/admin.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /mydomainsfolder/main/wp-content/plugins/zenpress/tinymce/popup_zp.php on line 41

    Any ideas? Thanks much, Zenpress + Zenphoto are wonderful!
  • Looks like you still have some trouble with a Wordpress plugin that is interfering. wp-contact-form is a wordpress plugin you have installed (but maybe not active) right?

    Hmmm. You might also try completely removing that wp-contact-form plugin from the Wordpress plugin directory and see if that doesn't shed some light on the issue.

    Try that, and let us know. Maybe Simbul has some ideas?
  • Hey there

    You were right! It was the contact plugin I have installed as soon as I deactivated that plugin the zenpress one it works like a dream.

    Thanks so much for taking the time to look at this for me.

    Cheers

    Wendy :)
  • Good thought, I am going to try removing the wp-contact-form plugin directory and see what happens. I will try to follow up here. (by the way this is Douglas Karr's version of the plugin - http://douglaskarr.com/2006/09/22/wordpress-contact-form-with-spam-protection/).
  • Not too sway you from a plugin, but I use the Secure and Accessible Contact Form located at http://green-beast.com/blog/?page_id=136 which is very feature rich and themable. Seems to work well with 1.0.7, Wordpress 2.1 and stuff.
  • ethoslight, let me know if you manged to solve the problem. If you still can't make ZenPress work, I will try looking into it ;)
  • BTW Simbul-

    I added your plugin information to the wiki at http://www.zenphoto.org/trac/wiki/ZenphotoPlugins It's so nice to have a wiki back. I feel so organized now....

    :)
  • thinkdreams,

    Thanks for the tip on Secure and Accessible Contact Form! It works great and is compatible with Zenpress!

    Thanks!
  • @ethoslight

    You are most welcome. enjoy.
  • Thanks for posting in the wiki ;)
  • No go for me Simbul. I deactivated and even deleted all of my other plug-ins.. but still get a blank screen when I try to activate.

    This is the same case on a fresh install and an upgraded install for me. Doesn't work on either.

    I am on IIS and MySql (Windows).. no problem getting the earlier version working.. just can't get this one to work.
  • Hi, first of all thanks for the great gallery code and the WP plugin.
    For some (if not all) of you who experience a blank page after you activate the plugin, there is a simple remedy (which could actually be adopted by Simbul):
    Prior to activating the plugin, open the file /wp-content/plugins/zenpress.php and change the line 114 from this
    ` <?`
    to this
    ` <?php`
    Some more strict PHP configurations (such as mine @ localhost) do not allow the first opening tag.
  • Thanks Retal. That's probably it.

    Tristan mentioned a while back that he was moving his code for Zenphoto to include only `<?php`, because there are some hosts that may not allow `<?` in PHP scripts. That might just be it, as I know Dreamhost (which is what I am on) doesn't care either way.

    Simbul keeps on eye on this forum, so he'll probably pick up on this shortly.

    In case no one knew, this is the longest thread in the entire forum :-) Keep up the good work!

    And yes, some servers don't support php "short tags" so most projects can't use them in their code, including for plugins or themes. We may want to put a note about that in guidelines...
  • Perfect material for GameDudex's Theme Tutorial. :)
  • DUH, what a stupid mistake to do.
    I'll go and fix it right now ;)
  • I'm using wordpress 2.1 + zenphoto 1.0.7 + zenpree 1.2.1
    It looks like zenpress conflicts with now reading plugin. When I tried to open zenpress in the writing menu. I always show this error message. But it worked when I deactivated now reading plug. Is there any solution for this problem? Or do I had to switch back and forth plugins?
