Coppermine badge plugin for Wordpress

Coppermine badge plugin for WordPress

This plugin creates a Flickr like badge from your Coppermine Gallery. ( See my personal blog bottom right sidebar for a demonstration. )

1 ) First edit the wp_coppermine.php file. You need to enter the hostname, login, database name, and password for the Coppermine database.

If you do not know this information then ftp to your website, cd into your coppermine directory, cd to the includes directory and download config.inc.php. All this information is in there.

Then if your Coppermine is not installed in /coppermine change this to be what ever directory you installed Coppermine into. Lastly enter the url of your website.

2 ) Upload the coppermine_badge folder to your plugin directory

3 ) Activate the plugin

4 ) In your side bar enter: <?php echo coppermine_gallery() ?>

4 ) Enter : <– copperminegallery –> in your template or in the code section of a post or page.

It is set up to display 5 thumbnails vertically. To change the number of images change the number at the end of this line:

$query = “select filepath, filename, ctime from cpg_pictures order by ctime desc limit 5;”;

If you want a horizontal list remove the

<br> from this line:
echo “\n<br><img src=\”$url/$directory/albums/$path” . “thumb_$name\”>”;

(Widget version of Coppermine Badge)

I updated the plugin today. ( same download file )

This fixes some name space clashes and allows you to adjust the Coppermine table prefix. The default prefix is different in Coppermine 1.4 than previous versions.

I clicked on the link at the top of this blog today to download it…but I got a picture of a pier that I was told to walk down…I guess a 404 page.

very cool. I can’t figure out how to get them to link to my photo galleries instead of my main page though.

Basically, I want the photo album on the sidebar on http://insider.nwjpb.org to link to http://www.nwjpb.org/photos. I put the main domain in the config file, but it doesn’t work if I change it to something else.

I also did this on http://www.washingtonpipers.org.

Love it! Thanks.

Change line #51 in coppermine_gallery
From:

$link .= “\n>tr<>td<>a href=\”$url/$coppermine_directory/photos\/\”>”;

You rock! Supporting people in software outside yours. Thanks a lot. My proxy just went down, but I’ll check that out tonight!

Check out NWJPB’s MySpace for video & audio. http://www.myspace.com/nwjpb. Surprising what 7 to 18 year olds can do with good instruction and support.

You’re sweet, but it is my plugin I’m having you change a line inside.

But I’ll be glad to help with any open source stuff when I can.

* One of my Coppermine sites had an attempted attack on it last week. Lots of talk on the Coppermine Forums about this.

The MySQL server I’m using didn’t have that flaw that would allow the exploit but I found extra files ( *.zip ) on my site that I had not put there.

Strongly urge you all to upgrade to newest 4.18 which fixes the security hole. The upgrade was totally painless.

Also you should consider add the Bad Behavior Coppermine Plugin to your Coppermine install.

It stops a dozen or more attempted hacks each and every day.

Hi,

Firstly thanks for your great contribution to the WP community. I am relatively new to WP although I have been blogging since early 2005. I currently use several of your plugins.

My question…

The Coppermine Badge is working like a dream – I use it to display multiple single instances of one randomly selected photo from my online album. I would dearly like to display a border or frame around the photo.

Any tips?

Regards,

You should just be able to change

to
or pick some number.
The $link .= is just straight html.
.= means add this text to end of existing text.
Or see line where it says print $link;
Add print “your_html_code”;
before and after that line for html you want to print before and after the coppermine table.
Just print then put ” around your html and a semi colon at the end.

Hi,

Thanks for your prompt response and feedback.

I changed line in coppermine_gallery.php as follows:

$link .= ““;

And it made no difference at all – photo still displaying without a border – I set it to 1000 justo see if it would make any difference. I’m probably aiming for a border of 3 or 5.

FYI…
I have inserted: into a Samsarin PHP Widget on one of my sidebars.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Sorry – been a long day here. I was in line for an iPhone all day and power was out a few hours at dinner time.

Can you email me the code?

Also see http://timestocome.com/wordpress2 and see the coppermine badge in the bottom right sidebar. Is that what you are looking for?

Let me know will look at it over the weekend.

There is another MySQL Injection flaw in Coppermine if you are not at v.1.4.19 Upgrade!
