[...] you can use WordPress as a photo blog with that particular theme. Most of the themes prefer to use YAPB (Yet another photo blog) plugin and it’s best if you can already download that and install it [...]

I downloaded YAPB, uploaded it to my directory, unzipped it, and activated it. Everything looks great–except my blog looks absolutely no different and I can’t figure out how to get started uploading photos. I’m not that great with techie language and need someone to explain in plain English. Could you let me know how I get started with uploading photos to my blog? And why is nothing showing up on the page even though WordPress tells me the plugin is activated?

Excellent – just what I want, easy and nice and gives me time to focus on my photos, not the system!
Thank you!

I absolutely love your plugin, thank you! The link to your forum seems to be broken. Everthing works perfectly except the comment button. Any idea why this is or someone else that had a similar problem. Thank you :)

Hi there,

I have successfully installed YAPB on my WP26 and my problem is I can only upload very small photos (couple of KB). The photo counter from plugin settings grows but photos don’t show.

How can I make the plugin work with ImageMagik ? I have set the correct full path but still nothing.

My memory limit and max post are set to accept larger files.

Any suggestions ?

Thanks !

Maybe a stupid question, but I activated the YAPB plugin, now where is it, how do I get to it and how do I manage it?

[...] also am trying out Yet-Another-Photoblog, the plug-in for WP just to see how it works, and in the future I might add something or change it [...]

I found that when I could not upload images (i was getting the thumbnail error) I had to add the uploads folder to wordpress in the wp-content and chmod it 777. Hope that helps some people.

I am getting this error:

Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class: phpexifreader in /home/seamensc/public_html/chaplainsblog/wp-content/plugins/yet-another-photoblog/lib/ExifUtils.class.php on line 29

Please help!

I managed to get this plugin working just fine but I want an archive page that shows thumbnail images of all my posts. I know there is the grain theme for wp that does this but I have my own theme I’ve done up and I have no idea how to make the archive page work to do this. My permissions are at 777 and my php memory limit is already at 32m. Help please!

Hi,

I had the same problem and decided to create a plugin that allows you to upload images using the Windows XP Publish to Web feature. The plugin allows you to register your website in windows XP such that (series of) images can be uploaded to your YAPB-enabled blog directly from an explorer window (select your images to upload and in the left side-bar click publish to web). See http://joost.reuzel.nl/about/plugin for more details on this plugin. Note that to use this feature you need to run one of the Windows XP versions…

Regards,
Joost

Do you use the automatic image insertion feature? If yes: I removed the according inline styles and all border disappeared in the WordPress Default theme.

I just want to know where I can adjust the css so that I can get rid of that 10 pixel width border around my images? I tried adjusting the inline styles in YapbOptions.php but when I decreased the width of the border it didn’t do anything.

Habe grade gesehen, dass die Option im Admin-Panel leider freigeschalten ist - Das ist ein kleiner Fehler, da das Feature noch nicht ausprogrammiert ist.

Sorry aus Salzburg!

Hi Thomas -

Das “Resize on upload” feature gibt es noch nicht, da ich noch draufgekommen bin, wie alle ich EXIF-Daten vom Original ins geänderte Bild kopieren kann. Ohne dass wird es das Feature aber nicht geben.

Sorry aus Salzburg!

Hallo Johannes,

leider ist das Forum ja im Momentnicht verfügbar, daher hoffe ich, daß Du mir eventuell über diesen Weg helfen kannst. Mein Problem: Das Image Resizing on upload funktioniert nicht im Geringsten. Alles andere läuft wunderbar, nur eben das nicht. Ich habe die Schreibrechte für alle Verzeichnisse entsprechend gesetzt aber es will einfach nicht. Hast Du einen Tipp?
Ach ja: Wordpress 2.3.1 und natürlich die neueste Version von yapb

Gruß
Thomas

Hi Johannes,
I have a different approach to use of a photoblog : I take a set of pictures, I tend to work with a specific concept and publish it. Sometimes they reach 100 pictures.
It’s a pain to upload them one by one, but I’m not complaining, because solutions like myGallery doesn’t give me an option to have a different page for each pictures. I want the people comment on my pictures one by one, or just disable the comments and let it only for the last one ( kinda slideshow ).
I’m new to your plugin, I’m gonna try to understand the code a little, but is it possible to create a multiple posting area to upload bunch of photos? with options like comments on/off, additional information for this set, auto name generation ( by numbering ), …
Anyway,
Thank you for creating this great tool, and thanks again if you consider this.
Cheers,
Suphi

Ok so I read EVERYTHING on your site, but I still seem to be having problems. I have installed/activated the plug-in. When I try to write a post with a picture through the plug-in, this is what I get.
