Hi folks,
Been using the wonderful Zenphoto gallery for a few months now, it worked like a champ until a few days ago when I had a look at my site to discover that it had stopped working. I haven't touched or changed anything and it has just stopped functioning.

Any idea what's up with it?

The site link is: http://myles.debastion.com/pictoric/gallery/

Any help is appreciated!

P.S

The front page works fine, but when you click to browse an album it just gives you a blank page (with .css formatting applied it looks like) with the text:

<a href="

Any ideas?

what version of zenphoto are you using?
Did you model your theme off a php theme.
what did your web host do.

if it is an older version or if the theme was based off a theme from a prior version of zenphoto then you may have a problem with php short tags. check and see what/if your host updated your site and make sure you are not using php short tags in your theme

I am using the latest version I believe (if it hasn't been updated in the last 4-5 months).
I reworked the template with all the full listing of tags to suit my site design and it was working without hitch for the past few months. The other day I take a look and it's stopped working.

I don't believe my host has changed anything, at least they haven't informed me if so. What could they have done to break the gallery? I'm not too knowledgeable on php so it's going to be difficult for me to pick apart and troubleshoot this.

In your album.php..
what is after the <h2><span><a href="

I have:

<h2><span>
<a>" title="Gallery Index"><?php echo getGalleryTitle();?></a> :
</span></h2>

hang on..

`

< a href="<?php echo getGalleryIndexURL();?>" title="Gallery Index"><?php echo getGalleryTitle();?> :

`

not sure if you just didnt put it up there or the board filtered it..but where is your closing anchor to your href?

Hmmpf yes sorry the board keeps filtering out the tags. (imagine without the spaces of course)

`

< a href="<?php echo getGalleryIndexURL();?>" title="Gallery Index"><?php echo getGalleryTitle();?>< /a>

`

Anyhow, there shouldn't be anything in the album.php file causing this problem because I have not changed it since the time it was fully functioning. Confusing huh?

I get a gut feeling that it's a host problem. I woke up after 5 years of hosting with one company (ez-web-hosting) to find every single database gone and all the usernames deleted. I moved to Bluehost.com -- which was a breeze to install Zen Photo.

Your host probably updated the PHP version - I had a similar problem, see this thread:

I hope this will fix it for you!

Thanks for the information Julia, I'm still unable to get it working though even with the temp fix in place

I hope that the Zenphoto people release the new build soon, maybe that will help??

@spuddle
You seemed to have fixed it. It works from here in Sunny Florida USA.

Ah excellent, I guess my cache wasn't refreshing for the tweaks.
Mmmm I just came from Fla, up in VT now, missing the warmth!

Thank you for the help people, really really appreciated.

Here's holding out for the next sexy version!
