Hi:
Installed your Panda Image Gallery and really like it – it’s very well done.
I can upload straight images fine with no problems (jpg / gif etc)
But I can not upload avi or wmv files – goes through the upload and shows completed then a message appears
“No images in the gallery”
Could you advise on what might be the problem.
The gallery is at http://www.thesledshop.ca/gallery
Thank You
Rob Lawrason

I just tested the software to ensure that it is handling videos properly and it is so I’m going to rule out a software glitch.
In all likelihood the video files you’re trying to upload are exceeding the maximum file size restrictions for your php installation. You can attempt to place a php.ini file in the panda root and admin/ to override the defaults. Panda Image Gallery ships with example files in those locations named php.ini.dist. You can rename those files to php.ini.
The values you would want to change are the following:
post_max_size = 25M
upload_max_filesize = 25M
25M = 25 megabytes. Adjust these as you require.

Hi Chris:
Yes – I adjusted the settings and renamed the files and everything appears to work fine now.
Thanks for your help
Rob

Excellent. Also, stay tuned for version 3.2. I will be introducing embedded video support for mp4/flv file types. This will allow users to view files inside a flash video player rather than requiring a file download. Unfortunately wmv, avi, mov, etc are not supported in flash video players so those types will still require a download.

To update what was mentioned earlier, wmv/avi/mov/mpg files will play inside an embedded player (quicktime, media player, etc) when available.

Hi Chris,
I am trying your Panda software. One question, regarding User Maintainance.
What’s the USER_LEVEL parameter in $users array? What value should we provide?
Also, I noticed regardless of the user login, anyone could view the images. I thought the User Login would allow access only to selected logins.
Please advise.
Thanks very much
Sam

Panda Image Gallery does not currently support private galleries. all galleries are public unless otherwise restricted at the host.
There are two supported user levels: standard_user OR admin
Admins can manipulate any gallery, regardless of who created it, just as the owner would. Standard users can only manipulate galleries they created ONLY.

I like this gallery script very much but there is no way to show a little description under each picture. It ll be very nice to tell some details about the pictures.

You are incorrect. You can add an image caption which displays under each image. To add a caption you must be logged in and the owner of the gallery for which you’d like to caption images. Click the caption button under the image (yellow in official themes).

Hello, I have a question. I like this very much, but is there a way to remove the login etc? I’m working for the website for school and I need such a script, but normal visitors shouldn’t see the login.. Is that possible?

I did this in my gallery http://www.saudiqbal.com/main,gallery.html
You have to login using domain.com/gallery/admin
after you login you ll see a button for changing password and logout.
