Thinking to buy 2nd photopost license but how do I make them use the same member DB? - Page 2

I need a cutsom install not just install it.

1. It need to use the same user database as gallery 1.

2. move half of the albums from gallery 1 into gallery 2.

1. thats still a normal install not a custom install.

2. Not really something you can do unless you want to spend time creating categories with the same name and category id after its installed and transfer specific queries between databases and copy those files to the other gallery data directory. That would be up to you to do.

I see. I guess I have to do it by hand 1 by 1. XD Also I orderd this on Date Fri Oct 26 07:27:40 PDT 2007 almsot 2 days I still haven't recieve my order details.

When you purchase an installation customer service will send you an install doc. Nothing will be done till this has been returned to them. If you have any questions about an order you may email sales@photopost.com.

I just sent them an email I ordred photopost lincese 3 days ago not sure why I still haven't receive the details.

Thanks i saw that thread before but didn't know it works for 3.6.8 too. I suggest you rename the thread so people know it will work with 3.6.8.

Also I get this when i try to upload more photos to the gallery.

You have exceeded your upload limit of 10 images per day. how do i disable this limit?

Chuck S · October 29th, 2007, 09:47 AM

You would disable your upload limit per day by setting in Admin => Edit Usergroups removing the restriction you have set for that options. Set it back to 0 for unlimited and you will be good to go.

Let me know if there is anything else we may assist with.

quite welcome buddy.

another question. Is there any script that can run hash check on all the photos in the gallery and delete the duplicate ones? Is not yet how much will it cost to ask someone to write one? Is it possible? I know it will take up alot system resources. But I can probly close down the gallery once a month to run the hash check. Because I have got a pretty big gallery and it's almost impossible to check for duplicated pictures by hand.

Chuck S · October 30th, 2007, 11:03 AM

check duplicates? there is already a tool in scan database to check filenames against the next or prev photo to ensure possibly users by mistake upload a file twice but thats not what you want. You want something that is without any problems going to compare the actual photo pixels and determine if they are identical based on their content not filename right? Well to be honest i do not know of any server software that has this ability. I do know its available as a desktop solution in the form of graphics programs.

drache · October 30th, 2007, 11:33 AM

What's the program called? Also think it's possible to make something like that to run on the server? specially for photopost. checking same file names is not that effective. Sometimes 2 diffrent pictures can have the same filename too. actully they do happen alot in anime gallery.

Chuck S · October 30th, 2007, 12:03 PM

I dont know honestly. I am merely saying I know there are high end expensive true image compare programs out there for the desktop. I am not a graphics guy here
