First thank you for this php script.

I find it very useful and use it much in my live projects. But i think it can be more perfect and useful with some features like:

• Automatic upgrade (Upgrades are pain in the ass if you have more than one galleries)

• Wordpress like, maybe "zp-content" folder for customized files such as config.php, watermarks, themes...

• Automomatic labeling; prefix, suffix, number support

• Theme integration with cms like wordpress and drupal

Thank you very much..

Since no one else has replied.....

I am sure the developers appreciate your thanks as we all do

Would be nice but there are so many server configurations out there not to mention different permission setup it would make it somewhat difficult to make a one way fits all update process. Even with a number of WordPress sites I have some update via the web interface with out issues, some don't

Hmm my first response to this is that ZenPhoto is meant to be ZenPhoto not WordPress, I like the fact it is different to WordPress. If I wanted to use WordPress I would be

The current Theme process works a treat, but I will conceded there is always room for improvement that is why ZP is still being developed

Er yuk and no thanks from my point of my - my point we all have different wants and needs and there are plenty of file renaming tools that can be used pre upload if needed

Again why? ZenPhoto is not mean to be Drupal or WordPress. Both those systems have gallery plugins available which work well for those sites why make another. ZenPhoto is great as a stand alone system it enables developers such as myself to modify it and add third party systems as we need to without having to conform to a larger CMS style or plugin criteria - I love the freedom ZP provides.

Any how the suggestions are welcome I am sure and I am also sure the devs have had a read and have their own views as will many others but I just thought this post was worthy of at least one reply

Cheers

-- Automatic upgrade will not happen for the reasons gwmbox presents.
-- What is the benifit of the content folder? There already is a folder for watermarks and themes. The zp-config.php file is not part of the distribution so it never gets overridden.
-- Not sure what you mean here, but sounds like a candidate for a plugin or filter.
-- There are third party tools for integration with Wordpress. There is the Zenpage alternative. And there is the generic hack for including Zenphoto content in other webpages. I think the developers will concentrate on Zenphoto content.
