[SOLVED] SiteAdmin/Plugins not working ++

php.ini not important at this point.

Output buffering is a would be nice feature, but not critical unless you are serving big files like movies.

this would alleviate some of the missing/modified files.
Simply upload/overwrite your current codebase with the full dev version
then run the upgrader once more.

We will see the status after that.

I admit I am reluctant to perhaps mess up what Dayo and I have spent several days getting to work for me to be able to login and do ordinary work in it.

Suprsidr probably does not know that at some point, preferably sooner than later, I have to check through every source page of the website and remove hidden additions sending casino etc URLS, and will have to check every folder and file in my Gallery for similar interference. Also, my site is like an 'information Centre of the sky' for our town and several of the businesses have disappeared. I have to disappear references to them throughout the gallery as well as the website.

With the work Dayo did for me, I can now login and get on with that. I don't want to lose that.

One thing that I do know will help me is to be able to access the plugins page in SiteAdmin where I'll be able to remove a lot of the earlier themes that I had installed when researching them for ideas for my own themes etc back in about 2003.

I am concerned about not being able to login in IE when the other browsers work well for that. I tend to have 2 or 3 browsers open at once, with different pages open in each for cross-referencing. Most other people only use my gallery for viewing images etc, and don't have the right to upload their own. Of course the ability for them to login will need to be addressed at some point, but more are starting to use Firefox instead of IE, so will be able to login anyway.
I admit I got anxious about the overall system when I could not get the needed information for the bottom of the first page of this new thread.

Having thought along these lines, I'd rather not overwrite my current codebase at present.
I think if we can get the things Dayo mentions fixed, I could work on cleaning up the whole thing before going into that upgrade.

And I fear that redoing it all, with the way I need things explained in minute detail at present, Suprsidr might find helping me to be a very heavy task. Dayo could vouch for that, though he has been very patient.

My problem there is that I do not understand a lot of 'ordinary' computing language.

Here is a thought.
PM me with ftp access info and gallery admin login info and I will just do it.
No need for a lengthy thread.

Ok, I squeezed a few more MB of memory out of your host to allow the plugins page to show.
You have alot of outdated themes and I uninstalled most of them.
I also uninstalled a bunch of modules you don't seem to be using.
If I uninstalled something you need, go ahead and re-install it.

BUT please go through the admin -> plugins list and delete anything you don't need. Especially the old themes.

I ran the build all thumbnails task and it completed the first time(thanks to the extra memory and Imagemagick) but there were a few failed items... Mostly looked like msword documents.

Let us know if there is anything else we can do.

Yes Thank you Wayne, and agreed Dayo.
In fact in the one hour I was home this afternoon between Church and a tangi for my best friend's husband who died suddenly last night, I started deleting unwanted themes. I'll probably have to be ruthless with colorpacks and image frames too. (tangi = several days at the marae before and at the funeral. marae = function centre with sleeping hall and lots of mattresses on the floor at night = central in the Maori Culture.)

Of course my favourite is PG theme - Pedro's one that inspired me to work in themes and colorpacks, or PGpiopio which is one of my adaptations and the Uselect Colorpacks. (Yes Uselect is in my gallery)
With that in mind I checked the user contributions and did find the Uselect colorpack there but I found the links for Download and Demo, and the link in the forum discussion to a page in my gallery are all incorrect - obviously the path was changed after that forum thread was written. It should be http://www.piopionz.com/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=4273&g2_enterAlbum=1 in each case.

Of course it is an old forum "Posted: Wed, 2007-03-28 01:20" but as it is referenced in the Themes catalogue - user contribs, it should be correct.

#1] I cannot edit the closed forum, nor the Themes Catalogue/User Contributions page.
Can you, please?

Actually I am surprised to see PG theme is still in the Gallery downloads rather than Pedro's later theme X_treme. I thought X_treme had replaced PG.

## Relevance to this thread = my choosing which material to remove or reinstall.

I want first to reduce the whole Gallery to the bones, without deleting things I'd have to upload later if I find I need them - and tidy it all up, while getting to know what does what and where to find what instruction in the new version.

#2] I need to know what modules visitors and users are going to want to find on my gallery. I'll need to keep for them, some of the things that don't interest me.
Can you advise me of such things? please.

One plugin that I deleted today and think perhaps I should not have is "Comments". I was thinking it was for other people to criticise (helpfully or destructively) on my photos. Now I am wondering if it is about various places where I can publish information about the file, or do Caption and Description cover all that

Then I'll want to upload and install some themes eg PG's X_treme. and some modules eg the Magic Toolbox ones, but I must not now let browsing their lists distract me from this first major cleanup task.

I don't plan my site to use e-comerce so I guess I can delete all those things, and don't care for my pics to be rated or commented on.

All this I should be able to do within the SiteAdmin/ Plugins - after reading up the relevant documentation.
I'll try to remember to try them one at a time, check it out, and delete it again if I decide against it.
As I work through it all I will certainly ask if I need help.
This will keep me busy for quite a while as the tangi continues through thursday, and then I go away to a wedding till next week.

One thing that has always impressed me about the Gallery programme is the way the more learned/experienced are so willing to help the rest of us.

Thank you both very much.
