Photopress 1.7

This version adds a few new features:

  • Switched to thickbox for the popup, like flickpress.
  • Added paging for the main album page, helpful if you have a lot of categories.
  • Added a jquery show/hide form for logged-in users to edit image info right in the album.
  • Fixes localization based on Renato’s comment.

The album paging feature is a little flaky – when permalinks are on it only works for month- or day-based setups. You’ll also probably need to refresh your permalink setup to get it going.

I still have a problem on my family blog now and then where a few categories mysteriously get changed to default. It never happens during testing, so I’m not sure how to figure out what’s going on.

I haven’t updated the options to break pre-2.8 compatibility, but I expect to do that for the next version since it’s supposed to improve security.

Update: Fixed a little bug in the album paging thing – replaced 1.7 with 1.7.1.

flickpress 0.9

This update adds a bunch of error checks and notices to make sure that you enter a working Flickr API key and a working capability in the settings. I set “edit_posts” as the default capability to use the plugin since choosing that was a little nebulous. I also fixed a bug where only the first page of search results was showing up (which I noticed while adding some jquery show/hide stuff for the license lists). Finally, I added an option to turn off captions by default. They’re still turned on to start with, but I figure that if you’re just using this plugin with your own photos you might not want captions.

There’s now a nice changelog in the WordPress Plugins Directory that you can check out to see if I missed anything.

Get flickpress 0.9 from the WordPress Plugins Directory.

The purple coneflowers are looking a little tired, but apparently they’re still fine for this bee. EXIF says I wasn’t using the FA 50/1.4…I think I used the 50/1.4 SMC for this shot – the 50/4 macro lens doesn’t make bokeh like that.

flickpress 0.8

This update to flickpress expands the search feature I added to the previous version, adding search for user photos too. I also added a list of the Creative Commons and other licenses so you can choose which you’d like to search – maybe useful if you want to find a photo photo you don’t need to attribute. Finally, you can now add users by either email or username.

Due to a switch to the probably-recommended method of doing settings pages this version requires WordPress 2.8 or later.

Get flickpress 0.8 from the WordPress Plugins Directory.
