Garbage Collector 2.0

manicolaus say:

There is a conflict between Picasa Express 1.5.2 and the latest bleeding edge release as of a couple of days ago, 3.3 (the “aortic dissection” build). When PE is activated, it makes the editor on posts and pages go away and disables the Update button so that you can’t save material.

Thank you for notifying me. I’ll check beta release to be ready for new version change.
But looks 3.3 is far away from beta and will be changed before release a lot.

I plan to add a lot of features like use Picasa as media library for featured images, gallery and so on. And looks I have to be ready for media upload changes in 3.3 before next release.

Taek, thank you !

taek say:

In regards to usability; the way to add individual images and full galleries is not too instinctive; but it is possible to work around this.

I work about usability. If you have any suggestion you are welcome.

taek say:

1) is it possible to use multiple picasa user accounts (comma separated or something) if not, could this be a feature?

Possibly – yes, usable – still no. You can change default user to another by button in the dialog. But without private album access.
I see that few people need multiply accounts. I can’t find the easy way for make it and postpone the feature to time when I have more energy to implement it.

taek say:

2) as a feature would it be possible to add a full gallery that will show in a lighbox or something but just use a dynamic number of “teaser” images (ie. it shows only 3 images in the article, but the lightbox will show all the images in the slideshow etc.)

Hm, probably it will be possible if hide rest of the images, but I need to test it. If this trick is working I’ll make the property in next version

Basically I want to replace ggpht by googleusercontent, as that’s the only way it works for me.

There no place to easy edit. First fetched from http://picasaweb.google.com, but then all used urls driven by received data.

If you know PHP you can take a look in function get_gallery and find $url variable in cycle. The same in function get_images ‘url’ key in the $images array.

I am preparing new version 1.6. Some features will be public, but additionally I’ll make pro version with video and recently images and support service. And everyone who buy a pro version or support able to request such small changes personally.

Can’t get it to work at all just get this error in admin “checking user: nok: Response code is 404 transport: curl”

Looks you have wrong Picasa username in settings.
Revoke access to private if you have it and try to receive user:ok and only then go to granting access to private albums

hi! i am having trouble at the last step. When I try to provide Google with the target url, and then try clicking on the link from wp-admin again, this is the error message i get. Any clue what the problem is?

what is your blog url ?
May be you enter without ‘www’, but WP has siteurl with ‘www’ prefix.

Micha say:

how can i insert spaces between the thumbnails?

Best way is margin:10px in image style.
You can set the style in plugin setting in the “Image properties” section
