1.6.a upgrade : much better than 1.5.9 - ctdlg - 2022-05-03
Hello,
I did several tests using Zenphoto 1.6.a on my localhost machine.
No more problems (see all previous messages)
- last tag is saved/restored using database restore function
- sitemap tool solves the links creation (if using txt files on pictures)
- search results does use layouts set on images/albums instead of default image.php file.
I did a complete backup of my online website, did the upgrade.
Same good behaviour online.
You did a good job : thank you very much.
I keep using 1.6.a online !
Only 1 problem (at least on my side - but I do not need it) :
If someone wants to do a fresh install, it will fail. See previous message.
Edit : I discover another wonderful change :
french accents are treated as normal letters :
example église and eglise are sorted equally
Bravo !

Thanks for the feedback!

That is actually a change that is introduced in 1.5.8 (with a small fix in 1.5.9). To work correctly the PHP of the system must have the native Collator class available. Perhaps you didn't have that before. https://www.zenphoto.org/news/zenphoto-1.5.8/ (search for Collator in the text for the related part)

Thanks for last info.
Yes, I also upgraded apache, php (new xampp version).
Tomorrow, I will try to erase the localhost database with phpmyadmin and restore it just to see if mysqli error (restore size too large) is gone or not, and let you know.
I do prefer your admin restore function, but we never know ...

Phpmyadmin still cannot restore a database :
#1118 - Row size too large (> 8126). Changing some columns to TEXT or BLOB may help.
Note : I do not need this, because your restore function does the job !

Yes, there has not been any change to this and will not on the 1.x release stream. The plan is to move image metadata to a separate table but that is a larger change for sometime later. So we will not change all these rather small columns to text or blob yet.

Great, althoigh there is still the bug that the latest added tag gets lost somehow.
