you'll probably be excited about the next version of coppermine - I want to give you a preview what features have already been added into our actual development version (most of these features have been done by tarique, based on his usability enhancement hacks for CPG 1.1.0):
- "Powered by Coppermine" points to this site
- Added Title option to sort in albums
- Separated the breadcrumb block so that it can be placed independently of category
- Added option to choose max height or width for thumbnails - will help in
creating nicer looking thumbnail rows and cols
- Added option to display a clickable flimstrip of thumbnails below the
image display
- Added option to show first level albums of a category instead of just
statistics of the category.
- Added Absolute URL of a picture in the pic info this helps in giving out
links to other people and the same picture will display regardless of the
sort setting of the individual
- Added option of turning on OR off the showing of "Private" Icon to
unlogged / unprivileged user
- Added Breadcrumb navigation to include album names
- Added Last Updated Album Block
- Fixed the bug in search.inc.php
- Added Edit Name in comments
- Favorites list
- Resizing of thumbnails and intermediate pics after initial upload
- Full-size pop-up closes on click
- A block to have custom content like a news feed, info about the site ect
- IP logging on comments and picture uploads
- IP banning
- Fixed Batch Update to force selection of an album & identify the category of an album
- Added Email notification on Comment
- Added 'no right-click' admin option

P.S. please don't post feature requests on this thread, but in the
feature request (http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/viewforum.php?f=7) board
Do you have any ideay how long it will take for the new version to come available? Because I can't wait for some of the new features: filmstrip and the infoblock i.e.

I know that, but it's quite some work to add them manually to my gallery, and I think they don't work for all thems and languages...

Wait for the next release - they already work for all the themes and hopefully be translated into most languages

That's my plan. :) And for that I want to know when the new release will be available...
@ Surf Dude:
There has been a feature freeze, and the translations are coming back from the contributors. You can expect it sooner rather than later. :)
Besides, good things come to those who wait!
I was sitting down to install Coppermine today and remembered that 1.2 would be released shortly. Do I need to wait for version 1.2 or will it have an upgrade script? Also, if I do need to wait, can you give an approximate timetable as to when 1.2 will be released?
There should be a simple upgrade procedure.
Upgrading from 1.1 version to 1.2 will be trivial. We are still working on upgrade scripts for 1.0.
But anyhow, will it take a week, or a month?.. An approximate date of the release would be great... :roll:

soon.....
I think the traditional answer is "When it's done" 8)
Quote from: "zarsky99"soon.....
Hahah, I see. :)
It`s just that I urgently need a gallery for my community and thinking whether I should install CPG 1.1.1 now and upgrade it to 1.2 later, or wait a bit (if that is "
a bit") and get myself 1.2 (integrating with Invision).
I would install 1.1.1 now, and then upgrade. There will be a trivial upgrade path to 1.2. Avoid making too many changes to the built-in themes, so your upgrade will proceed smoother.

Thanks for an advice!
There are more features that will go into the next release; I added them to the first posting in this thread...
- IP logging on comments and picture uploads
- IP banning
- Fixed Batch Update to force selection of an album & identify the category of an album
- Added Email notification on Comment
- Added 'no right-click' admin option[/list:u]GauGau
A slight correction ..
The banning is completely seperate from the IP logging - it prevents any access to coppermine based on either IP address or username.
Thanks for the correction - I edited my post accordingly...
:wink:
