Gallery 2.3.1 Native Microsoft SQL Server Support

2010-02-15T06:47:12-05:00

In October, 2009 Microsoft released version 1.1 of the Microsoft SQL Server Driver for PHP. This driver is fully maintained with an active release and development cycle, is extensively documented on MSDN and contains multiple features missing in previous SQL Server specific drivers such as native UTF-8 support, MARS support (necessary for SQL Azure), PHP 5.3 support and more.

Microsoft got in touch with us and put in all the legwork to make Gallery 2.3.1 support this new driver, so we're very happy to point you to their patch and a pre-patched Gallery 2 zip. If you're using Microsoft SQL Server, using this version will move you over to a backend driver that is supported by Microsoft, so their support team will be able to help you resolve any issues specific to using Microsoft SQL Server. A patch file that adds said support to existing installs can be found on Sourceforge at:

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2941873&group_id=7130&atid=307130

For your convenience, we've uploaded a pre-patched version of Gallery 2.3.1 to our Gallery 2 nightly build page:

Remember that the Gallery Team is officially no longer working on Gallery 2, there are no future releases of Gallery 2 planned, and that the Gallery team is not providing direct support for this patch. That said, hopefully this patch is helpful to some of you!

Stellar Year at NukedGallery.net

2009-12-23T12:48:46-05:00

2009 proved to be a great year for NukedGallery.net. With over six million page views, it was a 20% increase over 2008. I know that the integration updates have slowed, but that's due to the stability of Gallery 2.3(.1), and the fact that Gallery 3 won't support integration right away. Fear not, as I plan to tackle the integration as soon as the API is available in Gallery 3, which is slated for the 3.1 release right now. Thanks to all of you in the community for making 2009 so successful here. Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!!

Gallery 3.0 Beta 2 is ready!

2009-07-20T09:02:10-05:00

Beta 2 is ready and that brings us one giant step closer to a polished Gallery 3.0 launch! We're very happy to announce that beta 2 comes with a 1-click upgrader. That's right-- you no longer have to reinstall your Gallery 3 install, we support upgrading from beta 1 (but not from earlier releases). What's that? You can't wait to try it out? Download it now! or read on for more details...

Gallery 3.0 Beta 1 is ready!

2009-06-05T20:15:19-05:00

Gallery 3 is finally in beta! We've been hard at work over the past 8 months designing and building a worthy successor to the Gallery line and we are happy to say that we've got something that we think will make you very happy. The big news for this release is that from this point on, we will support upgrades to future releases! But don't take our word for it, download it now!

New packaging options

2009-05-27T13:18:32-05:00

The Gallery project has moved all Gallery 3 development to Git and GitHub. This new version control system makes creating forks much easier for those of us that want to contribute to the project. That being said, would additional package options for the integration packages be useful to the community at large? Would you like to see one large package with PHPNuke or phpBB3 and Gallery 3 pre-modded and integrated? Or, would you rather see just the modded files for PHPNuke or phpBB3 included? Chime in at this forum post and let us know.

Gallery 3.0 Alpha 4 is ready!

2009-05-05T15:57:12-05:00

It's here, the latest technology preview for Gallery 3. In the last 6 weeks we've been busy fixing bugs and adding features. The original plan called for us to have a beta release by now, but that's taking a little longer than expected so we'd like to share the Alpha 4 release with you now so that you can continue to play with the product and give us your feedback. In a hurry? download it now!

ReCAPTCHA integrated into phpNuke

2009-04-02T11:13:37-05:00

You'll notice that the standard phpNuke CAPTCHA display here has been replaced by reCAPTCHA, which you may have seen on other sites like Craigslist. For those of you not familiar with reCAPTCHA, it looks like this:

and is a great spambot fighter. Read this article on what reCAPTCHA is and how it works.

In order to fight the increased number of spambots on this site, I installed reCAPTCHA in place of the standard CAPTCHA during account registration. If you want this done on your site, submit a paid support request. The fee is a flat $25 for the installation.

Gallery 3.0 Alpha 3 is ready!

2009-03-24T19:52:10-05:00

To encourage your continued support and patience we're releasing Alpha 3 which has significant improvements!
