cpg1.6 miscellaneous / Re: PHP Upgrade Worry

Last post by 406man - Yesterday at 06:00:39 PM

I'm successfully running 8.1.33 with two of my galleries. The times you're likely to see trouble are:
- if you run a PHP version that is very new and higher than the supported version.
- if you try to run old plugins or themes that haven't been updated to be compatible with a recent version of PHP 8. The plugins that I've contributed have all been tested with at least PHP 8.2.19

As implemented currently, it only supports numbered albums (aid = album ID) and the meta-albums like "lastcomby".
pid is picture ID and also is numerical only

cpg1.6 miscellaneous / PHP Upgrade Worry

Last post by typomaniac - Yesterday at 12:43:48 AM

Hi I recently upgraded to version 1.6.27 and wondering about PHP version supported. I saw that the version 7 is supported but I just got a message from my server host that they will soon be moving up to PHP 8.1 and warning people to upgrade everything for the version. I'm just wondering if my gallery will continue to operate with that version.
Thank you much and have a great day
Dave

cpg1.6 miscellaneous / keywords or names in Coppermin...

Last post by littbarski - October 22, 2025, 06:33:48 PM

Hello,
at the moment the links in Coppermine are like
displayimage.php?album=10&pid=60#top_display_media

I searched and did not find it so probably it is not possible to change this like:
displayimage.php?album=animals&pid=dog#top_display_media

? thank you

Thank you soooo much! I changed the method to GD version 2.x and everything went back to working. You guys are amazing, and to think you do it all out of the goodness of your heart.
Thanks again,

Maybe your host changed their configuration and ImageMagick is not available. If you go to Config->File settings->Method for resizing images .. you can select an alternate method for resizing uploaded images. That should solve your issue.

Hi, I just ran the installer-stub and things appeared to go smooth.

If I go to config to check the version it is showing  Coppermine Photo Gallery 1.6.27 (stable) however, when I try to upload images I'm now seeing the following after each image:

image_name.jpg
Error executing ImageMagick - Return value: 127

When I looked for installed pear modules, I didn't see ImageMagic although I see one as a perl module.
Do I need to contact the server host or can ImageMagic be installed to the Coppermine directory?
I'm not real good at this sort of thing but doing my best.

Looking at your gallery, I see that you are using the water_drop theme that has been substantially modified. The gallery update methods mentioned above will overwrite your modified theme ... so you would have to do something to keep that from happening. You could rename or copy the theme folder and then after the gallery update, restore it. It is not a good idea to modify ANY files that are part of the CPG distribution. Custom themes should be in their own custom folder.

You should first update your gallery. When logging in as admin, you should see (at least once a day) a message stating that there are updates available. If you follow the provided link, you will be able to update your gallery with a couple clicks. If that is not working for you, you can use the installer-stub.
