This WordPress plugin supplies a set of template tags to allow you display images from a Coppermine Gallery.

Tags are provided to display the following:

• A configurable list of albums
• Grid of images from a selected album
• A latest images block to display a configurable number of images that were last uploaded.

This plugin leverages Lightbox2 v2.04 to display the full size version of the images. As this software was not created by me it has not been included within this package. It can be downloaded from http://www.huddletogether.com/projects/lightbox2/#download

The plug-in supplies a settings page which allows the user to enter the Coppermine database details and the display settings. 

The gallery on this site uses this plugin, as does the latest images block on the front page.

Installation

Installing this plugin is simple:

1.  Unzip ‘id-coppermine-plugin.zip’ in to the ‘/wp-content/plugins/’ directory.
2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
3. In the ‘Settings’ menu select ‘ID Coppermine’.
4. Under the ‘General Settings’ section enter the full url to the root of your Coppermine installation i.e. http://www.yoursite.com/copperminedirectory and the Coppermine username of the user for whom to display the images for. NOTE: there should not be a trailing slash in the url.
5. Under the ‘Coppermine Database Settings’ section enter the Coppermine web server and database details. These details will not be validated so you will only find out if they are incorrect when you try to view a page using one of the template tags. This allows you to be able to change the details at any point.
6. In the ‘Display Settings’ section you can set the number of column and rows to display when rendering the gallery, and wether to display the image title and to list the albums.
7. In the ‘Latest Images Settings’ section you can specify the number of images to display when rendering the latest images section.
8. Download Lightbox2 from http://www.huddletogether.com/projects/lightbox2/#download and extract to the same directory as your blog homepage.

Usage

1. Inside the folder of your selected theme create a file called ‘gallery.php’.

   

2. Open this file using notepad or your favourite text editor and paste the following: 

   <?php
   /*
   Template Name: Gallery
   */
   
   /**
    * @package WordPress
    * @subpackage Default_Theme
    */
   
   get_header(); ?>
   
   <div id="gallery" role="main">
   
   <?php
    id_coppermine_render_album_list();
    id_coppermine_render_gallery();
    id_coppermine_render_page_nav();
   ?>
   </div>
   
   <?php get_footer(); ?>

3. Save the file.
4. In the admin menu under ‘Pages’ select ‘Add New’
5. Call the page ‘Gallery’
6. Do not enter anything into the body/text area of the page.
7. Under ‘Template’, select ‘Gallery’ from the drop down.

   

8. Click publish.

If you change your theme you will need to remember to copy the ‘gallery.php’ file from your original theme directory to your new one.

FileRenamer is a simple batch file renaming utility.

To rename files:

• Navigate to the directory containing the files that you want to rename
• Select the files you wish to rename (to select them all you can right click over the file list and choose ‘Select All’ from the context menu).
• To remove text from a file name type the text that you wish to remove in the ‘old’ field and then click ‘Add’.
• To replace text within a file name type the original text that you wish to change in the ‘old’ field and then type the text that you wish to replace it with in the ‘New’ field and then click ‘Add’.
• Any combination if these can be added to the list of actions to be carried out.
• These actions are carried out in the order that you added them and so complex renaming tasks can be created:
  • You gave a group of files that are prefixed ‘xxx -’ and contain the word ‘dog’.
  • You wish to remove the prefix from every file and replace the word ‘dog’ with ‘cat’
  • To rename the files you would add a task to remove ‘xxx -’ by typing ‘xxx -’ into the ‘Old’ field and then clicking ‘Add’
  • You would then type ‘dog’ into the ‘Old’ field and ‘cat’ into the ‘New’ field.
  • Click ‘Rename’ and the files will be renamed as required.
