Direct linking, password protecting

03 Feb 2008, 13:31

Hi there,

I just purchased imagevue and find it is very good looking, but lacks important features most other galleries have already. Unless I missed them?

1. Is there a way to password protect a specific album? Not via .htaccess files, but through the admin area?

2. How can we find the HTTP link of an album so we can directly link to it?

3. The quality of thumbnails isn't very high by default. Gallery has an option to adjust JPEG quality of the thumbnails created by GD, I could not find one in the admin section of Imagevue.

Thank you!

I think password protection is being worked on in the new version? However the safest way is still to use a system locally on your servers.

To direcly link to folders in your gallery you just need to put in the folders that the images as shown below

2. To find the direct link toa specific gallery, simply apply the folder part onto your gallery link. For example:

https://www.photo.gallery/imagevue/?fold ... 20Animals/

...or to load directly through the slideshow:

https://www.photo.gallery/imagevue/slide ... mage=false

3. To change the thumbnails quality, you will need to open "/include/thumbnail.config.php" and change the $thumbquality parameter. The admin will support such features in the next version.
