Gallery 3.1.2 release

[Brad Dutton]

I found a bug in the 3.1.1 release. If you updated to 3.1.1 you should update to 3.1.2. Apologies for the inconvenience.

Thanks,

ARCHIVED ORIGINAL INFORMATION on RELEASE 3.1.1  (which is now 3.1.2)

I published a new 3.1.1 release. This is very minor release, unless you are running PHP 7.4 or doing a fresh install you can skip it. Changes include:

- PHP 7.4 compatibility

- remove slideshow module as it is only causes problems

- CLI installer changes

The last item is important for the next item, which is there is now an up to date docker image:

https://hub.docker.com/r/bwdutton/gallery3

If you are a docker user you can get a new gallery install up and running almost instantly. The latest gallery 3 is installed on PHP 7.3 with MariaDB 10 and includes all of the modules that are in the contrib repository (https://github.com/bwdutton/gallery3-contrib/tree/master/3.0/modules). These modules are installed but not enabled.

A couple of caveats on the docker image:

- there currently isn't any SSL support

- if you want additional themes/modules you can:

  1) get them added to the contrib repository or

  2) mount your custom themes/modules, e.g. in the docker compose config:
    - ./my_custom_theme:/var/www/themes/my_custom_theme

    - ./my_custom_module:/var/www/modules/my_custom_module

It's possible to add SSL support but I was waiting to see what the level of interest is in a docker container before spending more time on it.

Thanks,

Brad

 No need to apologize! I am so greatful that someone is picking up the gauntlet from where it dropped. I have been using gallery1 since 2002 and we have a lot of pictures, comments, titles and metadata stored in our gallery. 

I finally got it upgraded to gallery2, and then to gallery3 (php7 forced us). There are some glitches, like we dropped a lot of long titles and such but I think we'll sort them sooner or later. 

Thanks!

Is there an NNTP-interface to these groups? It looks like tin would be the right client for this.

Harald,

You can change the visible title length in the admin section, "Admin/Settings/Advanced" and look for visible_title_length  the number is a character count.
