Title: Is Coppermine able to do this now or soon?
Post by: snoopy on January 22, 2004, 06:45:35 pm
Hi,

I found Coppermine just now after having checked many different photo-gallery software - commercial and free software like photopost, 4images, albinator, gallery, etc.

Unfortunately there is none which is able to offer all features that I need. So I am looking for Coppermine now. I just saw that some point are already available, but there are also some important features of my "have to" list missing.

My question now is: how realistic it will be to implement the list below in one of the upcoming releases and how much time do you think this will last?

Are you heading for these features in future upgrades at all, or do you have a totally different "road plan"?

Here is my list:

--------------------------

- Appearance of front page like a real photogallery
- autothumbnail function (above all with Image Magick and GD2)
- autoresize to predefined pixel size for width and height (both thumbnail and big image)
- Autoresize in KB to predefined max. upload KB
- slide show
- mark your favorite images in a separated album
- create user albums, not accessale by other users
- Advanced search for keywords in titles, text and usernames (also not completed words)
- Show recent uploads on front page
- Show picture of the day (by selectable criterias)
- Top 10 votes
- Top 10 comments
- Back up system out of admin menu with back up on own hardrive
- subscribtion below each image to receive email notification on new comments for any image the user subscribes
- banning system
- multiple moderators with costumizable rights/sections
- Limit # of images for uploads per user per day/week depending on usergroup
- inclusion of paypal services for upload & viewing rights only to paying members (either and/ or choice in every section and/or selectable sections)
- lostpassword -> sends activation code as well when account is not activated
- protection from rating twice
- Function: Report "bad" photo to a moderator
- send an e-mail to the owner of an image automatically with the reason (different reasons with checkboxes) why an images has been deleted by the admin/moderator
- More optional fields for personal information in register.php i.e. camera and lens etc.
- Automatic display of Exif data for image recording details of digital cameras
- Sort Images by date: last day/ 7days/ 14 days etc.
- Slide Show
-easier combined user registration with 3rd party forum and portal software
- Easy layout/template costumization
- Module system of features to choose the modules the webmaster wants to have

Thanks in advance

I don't know what a "real photogallery" is. Seems like coppermine is unreal :wink:

never thought about it, first request for this feature. Not sure if/when will be implemented...

- slide show

sounds like this option might confuse users too much - I don't think this will be in the standard code; maybe someone will do a hack
Quote from: "snoopy"

planned, for (distant) future

won't become much easier than it is right now, although bridge file modification with a web-based wizard is planned

Quote from: "snoopy"
- Module system of features to choose the modules the webmaster wants to have

Next time, please take a look at the feature list and our demo: lot's of features are already there :evil: . It's very hard to answer such postings like yours individually - I'm not a slave, but a volunteer (at least that's what I like to think)... :wink:

It is very useful for my gallery (http://zastavkin.com/wallpapers). Users request me about this otion.
The second requirement is the opportunity for users to change the title, description, and album of the picture.
(excuse my bad english)
