Hopefully not OT here, but i've used the module with no real problems for a while...it seems easy enough to alter, granted it's a bit sleazy as you say to include this stuff in the Module in the first place.

What concerned me more was the apparent lack of XOOPS markings on his china-offshore site:http://china-offshore.com/modules/news/ It is Xoops, but in the site's default theme of "ventti", There's no XOOPS copyright that I can see. How can he remove the XOOPS footer credit like that?
The other two themes have it though.

Hmmmm.

Oh well...to get rid of the default link to that offshore crap, change this in /modules/agendax/config.inc.php to whatever you wish.



He does have some dubious stuff in there, including a lot leftover from the original DHTML Calendar it was made from.

Like /modules/agendax/images/maroctour.css what's that doing there?! Lol...weird.

Another weirdness/leftover from /modules/agendax/images/minical.css :



Oh well, I digress...

It's a fun Module, if strange at times....why it's starts the week with Monday I'll never know.

(fix for that is in config.inc.php as well, btw)
change:


Sorry for blabbing on here...figured might save someone pain changing those things.

Anything is possible, but they aren't using XOOPS to do it.

They are using Nephp Publisher, which is a commercial CMS product...starts at $100, and goes to over $500.

Nice thing about Xoops, it's free! And it has many themes to use or customise, plus you can make your own layouts.

If you wanted a layout like that, it could be done, sure, but you'd likely need to learn a bit first. Like, that mouseover menu they have? it's CSS, not normal Javascript.

Rather nice though.

Anyways, if you'd like to see a sampler of XOOPS themes, try going to http://www.xoops-themes.org they have over 200 themes to preview/download. (halfway down on the left side is a theme preview selection box)

Good luck!

Try the xcGallery module then..it's based on Coppermine, nor Gallery.

https://xoops.org/modules/mydownloads/singlefile.php?cid=28&lid=666

ok..you're on a strict host...which is a good thing.

try checking the permissions on that file, do_command.php

It should prolly be 644. PHP files shouldn't be writable except by the server.

Alright,

If you can, look at your error logs for your server..that should tell you what is the culprit. Otherwise, I really don't know what specifically is wrong there.

It looks like a permissions error somewhere though.

Also, double-check the paths in the gallery module admin.

/home/123/ is not the same as /home/123 or home/123/

Check your permissions:

3) Set permissions on xoopsgallery/cache/tmp and xoopsgallery/cache/albums
directories to 0777


Far as suggestions, it depends on what you intend to do.
There's many gallery scripts, several of which can be used with Xoops. (i.e. Coppermine)

I did post one suggestion at the bottom of my previous post that I like for Xoops. Just depends on how much work versus features you want really.

Yup, you want the core for a new install.

Alternativly, you can get the files directly from Sourceforge:http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=41586&package_id=72954

Zipped:http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/xoops/xoops-2.0.7.zip?download

BZipped (unix)http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/xoops/xoops-2.0.7.tar.bz2?download

Ok, this should be fairly painless :)

I see you have the NetPBM binaries already at the URLhttp://www.bitunde.com/netpbm/

Make sure that all those files are "chmod" 755 so they can be executed. By default, they will likely be chmod 644 after uploading, which won't work.

I don't know your actual path, but as was said, should be something like /home/user/public_html/netpbm

You'll need both that path & the URL for Gallery install.

If you can't get NetPBM going, try uing GD2 for image processor, you'll have it, but is not as good as NetPBM/ImageMagick.


Here's the BIG Install FAQ on Gallery from XoopsGallery/xcgal (which I assume you are using)

-------------
Installation - Fresh Install:
-------------

To install XoopsGallery for the first time in your XOOPS system:

1) Unzip the package on your hard drive (Somewhere that you will remember)

2) Use a FTP program to upload the xoopsgallery folder and its contents to
{Xoopsroot}/modules/ folder on your server (should be NO need to make a new
folder called xoopsgallery. But if you do, just copy the contents of the folder
and not the folder with its contents).

3) Set permissions on xoopsgallery/cache/tmp and xoopsgallery/cache/albums
directories to 0777 (needs to be RW for webserver account, you might be able to
reduce those permissions accordingly).

4) Login to XOOPS as an admin and click on 'Administration Menu' in user menu.

5) Once you are logged in as admin and in XOOPS site admin, Hover the mouse
cursor over the 'system Admin' icon and then click on the 'Modules' link.

6) You should have arrived at 'Modules Administration' now, look down the module
column list until you find the Gallery icon and click on it. XOOPS will now
install the module and then prompt you to return 'back to Module Administration
page' and then is the install complete.

7) Hover the mouse over the Gallery icon and click Preferences in the pop-up menu.

8) Important! Configure Gallery for your server. An important setting is the
Graphis Suite options (Path to NetPBM / Path to ImageMagick / Graphics Suite).
See the next section for details on that.


-------------
Graphics Suite:
-------------

You need to know the path to your NetPBM *or* ImageMagick suite is located, and
configure XoopsGallery accordingly. You can check the settings to be sure it is
working properly by accessing "Check NetPBM" or "Check ImageMagick" from your
admin menu.

Pesonally, I am and always have used NetPBM for no particular reason other than
it was the first one listed in the options. You only need one of these suites
configured for XoopsGallery to work.

If you have trouble with xoopsgallery, specifically "Problem creating
thumbnails" or similar, see the troubleshooting pages on the Gallery website.

http://gallery.menalto.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=GalleryDocs&file=index&page=gallery1-install.faq.c.php#gallery1-install.faq.c.2

Hope some of that helped.

Personally, I find myAlbum-P easier to use, although I've used Menalto Gallery since early versions. Heh, I had a Gallery-based website that got about 2 million hits a month.
