IP.Gallery 3.1.0 Released

[[R] NuclearGeneral]

We are pleased to announce IP.Gallery 3.1.0 has been released.

 

The following is a list of what's new in this version of IP.Gallery:

 

Friendly URLs

We've integrated gallery into the global FURL system used by IP.Board 3, this will allow gallery to create friendly URLs for categories, albums, and images.

 

Category/Album Covers

When viewing an image, you will have a new option to set that image as the 'cover' for the category or album that contains the image. When a cover image is specified for a category or album, that image will always be displayed, in place of the last uploaded image thumbnail.

 

Sub Albums

Albums now support unlimited sub albums, which work exactly like gallery sub categories.

 

Profile Picture Album

You can now create a new kind of album, a 'Profile Picture' Album. After this album has been created, any images that you upload to it will be displayed on the change picture page in your User CP, making them easy to select as your profile image.

 

Image notes

Image owners are now able to add notes to sections of their images, positioning and resizing them to suit. Other members will be able to see the notes when hovering over the image. (An example)

 

Image rotation

Images can now be rotated in 90° increments, to compensate for those photos taken in landscape or portrait, but saved in the wrong orientation.

 

New slideshow

We have completely rewritten the slideshow feature! It is now a unified interface, loading images on demand as necessary. Users can play or pause the slideshow at will, or jump to specific photos using the thumbnail bar.

 

Friends-only albums

When creating an album, users can now choose to restrict viewing to only those users who are on their friends list.

 

Reputation support in comments

We have added support for IP.Board's reputation feature in comments posted within IP.Gallery.

 

Interface tweaks

We have updated the style of categories so that larger versions of the image are used, to give more impact. The image listing has also been updated, and will now show as many images on a row as the users browser can fit. This should improve the display of IP.Gallery for users who have higher screen resolutions. The image view screen has also been improved, including support for those features mentioned above.

 

 

Downloading

 

You can download IP.Gallery 3.1.0 if you have an active license in the client area. As always, make a backup of your community before proceeding.
