 |
|
I've got a beta ready of my b2photos hack. If you'd like to try it out, let me know. It will run on either b2 or wordpress.
UPDATE: Here is a little more about the hack. It does not do thumbnail creation or image resizing or anything like that. What it does do is automate laying out the photos thumbnails, adding the captions (It can import IPTC data), displaying the full size image and showing the preview photo.
To use it, you have to create both a full size image and a thumbnail image and you must follow the expected folder structure. Is this inflexible? Yes. Does it work the way I want to use it? Yes. 
There are more robust plans in the works for how to handle images and other multi-media for WordPress - I see this as a quick-fix until those are ready.

Do you have an example blog or a screen shot anywhere?

Yep, click on the b2photos link in the original post...
This will show the preview functionality.

Ok see, what I've been looking for is a way to have thumbnails that link to the image post. Almost like a "last 10 posts" link showing the titles. But because I have a photo blog, the last 10 thumbs.
I haven't figured out who to do that but I haven't put a lot of work into it either. I know you can in MT but I'm not switching to that nightmare of a program.

No bug reports have come in from people who asked for it so far, so I've made this available on my b2/WordPress Hacks page.

Not sure if I can get this to work with B2evolution as so much has changed from one the other ..

I'll probably add thumbnail creation at some point, but it would require gd to be enabled on your server (which many people don't have)
