How to show Comments on Slides only

Brian asked a few days ago:
I would like to only allow comments on the individual photos themselves, not the gallery or folders. Is there a way to do this?
You have two ways to make this work:

One Image could break your lay out

More and more bloggers use Lazyest Gallery to manage their images in WordPress. They all use the plugin in a slightly different way. Because of this, bugs show up that other users would never find. Lazyest Gallery 1.1.7 fixes four recently found bugs.

Comments not showing for images and folders

Comments not showing for images and folders

Since Lazyest Gallery 1.0.35, comments did not show for images and folders. This bug has been fixed in Lazyest Gallery version 1.0.38.
Please download and install version 1.0.38 1.0.39 if you use comments per folder/ image.

Pagination problems

Pagination problems

Lazyest gallery 1.0.36 fixes two pagination problems.
If you have many comments on your gallery folders or images, the permalinks in a recent comment widget would not show the correct comment page number. This would lead to unpredictable behavior. Because the recent comment widget take all comments as belonging to just one page, the page number would be set too high. Lazyest Gallery now calculates the number of comment pages per folder or image.
Tim Houghton found a bug in the thumbnail pagination. This was because the permalinks for the thumbnail pages were wrongly built. It has been fixed by using a WordPress function to add query arguments to the permalinks.
Please download Lazyest Gallery 1.0.36 from the WordPress plugin directory.

Testing Lazyest Gallery on WordPress 3.1

Testing Lazyest Gallery on WordPress 3.1

WordPress 3.1 Release Candidate 1 is now available. I had to make some small changes to the Lazyest Gallery 1.0 Comments screens to make it fully compatible. This compatible version will be released as 1.0.17.
Developing Lazyest Gallery 1.1 will take a bit longer. Some functions changed during the development of WordPress 3.1, and I have to rewrite parts of the new gallery authorization rules. I expect to finish Lazyest Gallery 1.1 sometime in January 2011.

Comments reloaded

While implementing a new theme for this site, I noticed some awkward behavior on the gallery page. After clicking on the link for older comments, the page got reloaded over and over in an endless loop. Lazyest Gallery loads a small javascript to search for an item that goes with the comment and displays the relevant folder or image if found. This javascript got triggered even when no particular comment was present in the url. This has been fixed by changing the javascript and the comments template.

Another problem was that this theme automatically adds line break and paragraphs to the content. This resulted in huge gaps in the gallery display. I have explicitly hidden some parts of the gallery to prevent this.

Please download and install Lazyest Gallery version 1.0.14 to fix these bugs.

The comments template could get broken

Posted by: on Dec 6, 2010 in Bug Fix, Lazyest Gallery | No Comments

Lazyest Gallery version 1.0.12 fixes a bug that causes a broken comments template when users must be registered and logged in to comment. This release also contains some typo fixes as mentioned by Florian.

In the meantime we'll continue our work on version 1.1. It's slightly off track, because the new version will add an extra table to the WordPress database, and we want to test this thoroughly.
