EE 1.5 beta 3 FIX PACK 1

[Pekka]

Exhibit Engine 1.5 beta 3 FIX PACK 1 (5th of October, 2003)

http://photography-on-the.net/EE15b3_fix_1.zip

TAKE CARE TO REPLACE ALL FILES IN RESPECTIVE FOLDERS.

This fix pack fixes following issues:

1. When photo rating was set to 'off', but photo was selected in rating exhibition list the visitor could see the ratings form. FIXED.

2. Comment and rating editor has some improvements (color coding and more logical menu layout) (Thanks Evanrich, daddy0).

3. Bug where comment and rating editor gave an not found error when trying to same multiple changes is FIXED.

4. Original style rating color changed to even red for readability.

5. Added: "Exhibition breakdown" listing to editor index page and also in performance and stats page. This display brings you a summary of exhibitions, how many photos, which are hidden. Each row in list contains link to exhibition editor (from exhibition name) and photo browser (from photo count value) which may be useful to have when entering the editors.

6. Above addition means that editor's index.php has changed so optimize dialog is now moved to it's own php page which in turn has changed menu.php a bit.

7. One new graphic file has been added to "/input/graphs/eng/"

8. Small html problem in ftp.php (upload page) which prevented Mozilla Firebird changing number of html upload fields (tested with Firebird 0.7RC).

9. In Info Card output keywords lists are now ensured to have a space after each comma, so that browser width does not change with long keyword lists, with some browsers. Automatic link and linefeed switches for list page affect now info card output, too.

10. There is now another method of listing files in copy/move/delete's "find orphan photos" feature (experimental feature). Try it out and let me know if it works or not.

11. List page counter "hits since YY/MM/DD" had incorrect date. FIXED.

I've updated my EE 1.3 to 1.5b3 and also installed the fix pack 1 files. Two problems:
1. Although I have ratings enabled for all galleries, I'm not seeing any ratings form on any gallery photo pages where user can input info.
2. I'm not seeing the header that used to be at the top of all pages (black bar with links to sites) in 1.3.

Everything else seems to be working fine - including the ftp and Imagemagick functions.

I fixed the header problem by loading a copy of header.php into the Eng folder in Languages, as suggested in another post. Still not able to get the ratings problem fixed.

Hey Pekka,

Beta 3 seems to be working well for me, along with the fix pack. I just have one request... When you save all the PHP (and any other text files), could you use UNIX format? As it is, if I unzip the file on my server, it will have a DOS-style carriage return at the end of every line (^M). I have a small script that will remove them all, but it's one step that could be avoided...

Anyway, great work on EE! Thanks for fixing the Firebird bug with the upload form, too. I was going to mention that, but someone beat me to it. :)

Go to misc settings, there are exhibition lists next to command and ratings switches: select those exhibitions you want to include in ratings / comments and save.

Note that currently you have only choices (not clearly marked in editor):

comments + ratings
comments

So setting just ratings on (and comments off) does not produce a rating form to photo page.

OH, good point. I use Homesite in developement and it was set to PC linefeeds. Now I set it to UNIX linefeeds so following uploads should be fine.

I donwloaded Firebird to fix that bug, and Firebird seems to be really usable and fast browser. I was suprised to see how good it was!

Yep, I started using Firebird a few months ago and haven't looked back. There are still a few things I'd like to see changed/fixed, but overall I like it a lot more than IE. In case you haven't seen it already, this (http://texturizer.net/firebird/) is a good site for plugins and skins.

I've been using Homesite for HTML for years, too... Since before it was bought by Allaire (who was subsequently bought by Macromedia). Great program. :)

Thanks again for your hard work! I've yet to find anything as nice as EE.

Thanks Pekka, it is now working. I had both comments and ratings checked, but had neglected to select the galleries for comments. Guess I need to do this kind of work in the AM when I'm more alert.
