Hey all, first of all thanks for the clean and simple to use software. I have been using Plogger to place photos of my newborn daughter so that out of state friends and family can enjoy her as much as her parents do ;).
Anyhow, Iâ??m not a fan of having family photos on the web for all to see, so I developed a basic frontend authentication system for Plogger that allows friends and family to register and login to see the photos that we upload.
The system currently only requires email verification, but it would be easy to change it to admin approval.
If anyone is interested in the code/how-to please let me know, I would be glad to share.
Sorry for the delay in response. You can see a demo at the following site. http://www.seekersedge.com/plogger_demo
I have not looked at the specifics of a per album authentication, but I suppose that it is possible. I can look into it if you wish.
I cleaned up my authentication code/integration to make it more user friendly, so it should be easy to implement. If you are interested in using the system, let me know and I will upload the source.
I am not a graphics artist so forgive the plain looking login/register pages.
I also integrated admin privilege into the authentication system, so you can create admin users who have access to the configuration/upload pages.
Sorry it has taken longer than I expected due to other obligations. However, I finished cleaning up the source and added a few new features. I will be able to post the download by this weekend (or sooner).
On a side note, I had to modify a few of the original Plogger files, and I wanted to make sure that it was ok with the Plogger devs if I include these modified files with my download. So if any of the Plogger team is reading this, please reply and let me know if it would be ok.
Let me get home tonight and look at it. Sounds like youâ??re not using the MyISAM engine.
You could try removing all of the "ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1" lines form the file. That should allow it to work. Make sure you leave the semi-colon ";".
Okay I know its been a long time since this chain has been live but I am hoping to get a hit. I need a user authentication and the file in the beginning of the chain no longer works. Anyone with updates?
