Today I have uploaded version 0.12.0 to the WordPress plugin repository.
The major new feature in this version is commenting on folders and images.
Instead of having all comments together for the whole gallery, Comments will only appear with the specific folder or image. But more things have been added and lots of things have changed. I fixed some bug along the way too. Read the rest of this entry »

A few days ago I have committed the first beta version of Lazyest Gallery 0.11.0 to the trunk on wordpress.org. You can download and test this version, but please be aware that Lazyest Gallery 0.11.0 beta should not be used on a live blog. Also I am still adding features and some features could be left out in the final build.

Oops, again a new version.
New installs couldn’t get to the Lazyst Gallery Settings and Manage pages.
Should be fixed now.
download version 0.10.4.5

As you know, I have picked up this project where KeyTwo left it. It takes some time to feel ‘at home’ in somebody else’s work. Every time I walk through the source code I find some minor bugs. Today however, I found some realy nasty security issues. It turns out that Lazyest gallery did write caption.xml files and thumbs and slides folders to your website and left them world writeable. Ouch!
I have changed all chmod calls. The files and folders now inherit their permissions from the parent folder. Just like WordPress creates files and folders. So if you have manually set your folders with sloppy permissions, it’s your responsibility.
Please download the new plugin version 0.10.4.4 now. As soon as you activate this new plugin, all Lazyest Gallery made folders’ permissions will be reset. This could take some time, but it has to run only once.
A number of deprecated functions were used. Those have been updated too. Also, wpautop filtering has been tweaked, because it interfered with other plugins that filter wpautop like the inline javascript plugin.

download version 0.10.4.4

This version fixes three issues:

1. invalid XHTML markup for the gallery. WordPress automatically inserts paragraph elements around the gallery like this: <p>[[ lg_gallery]]</p>. This will result in invalid XHTML because Lazyest Gallery inserts div elements. That’s why the filter wpautop will be disabled for the gallery page.
2. The memory handing for image processing has been changed to act just like WordPress.
3. Furthermore, an extra option has been added for image popup plugins that insert URL popup code automatically. Check Force Other Popup Plugin Support to activate this option.
   NOTE! This will link to full-size images view from the thumbnail view, bypassing the slides

Download version 0.10.4.2

Another update, soon after 0.10.4
The implementation of lightbox support has been tweaked. Because some lightbox plugins insert their own code into image links, slides were diplayed incorrectly or not at all.
