Release notes

Minor Changes

  • #1158 Allow to limit the maximum size of Flickr images. Right now, it is possible to download the original Flickr image with the download button. The lightbox uses the h-(2048px)-image. Now you can limit the size to the k-(1600px)- or b-(1024px)-image by modifying the config.php-file and create an overload. Please check the manual for details.

  • #1161 allow different ITPC-fields for title and description. This change is available via config.php file only.

  • #1163 EXIF data: the focal length is now shown with its 35mm equivalent if available. Example for a 1.5x crop camera: 30mm (45mm).

Bug Fixes

  • #1154 Fixes issues with the ISO value in EXIF data written Pentax camera

  • #1155 If a password was entered incorrectly, the message should show up as an error message. Before it was the default success message.

  • #1157 allow changing the folder name if the change includes only changes in upper/lower case spelling

Joomla 3.10 Joomla 4.0 Joomla 4.1 Joomla 4.2

Maturity Stable
Released on Saturday, 05 November 2022

Release notes

Important Changes

  • PayPal Adaptive and Braintree are no longer supported. PayPal Adaptive is no longer available for new customers since PayPal will shut down that API. Getting an account for Braintree is now very difficult, so it make no sense to support this for Event Gallery. You still have the regular PayPal-integration as well as Stripe-support available.

Major Changes

  • #1124 In the past, thumbnails used background images. This is hard to crawl. Thumbnails now use the src-attribute to reference the largest thumbnail, usually 1600px width. The srcset-attribute contains the adaptive image. Modern browsers do support the scrset-attribute and will load exactly the right image size.

  • #1131 Update Stripe payment plugin to support latest API version.

  • #1132 Allow to set the batch size and the parallel requests for sync database and thumbnail generation to adapt to slower servers or support the processing of larger images.

Minor Changes

  • #1110 the upload limit for images was fixes to 30MB. It now takes the server configuration into account.

  • #1106 do not create carts if the feature is disabled.

Bug Fixes

  • #1108 Image rotation was not detected in some photos if they do not contain EXIF but image rotation data.

  • #1111 Caching of the categories-module caused exception.

  • #1127 Remove Undefined index: view notice in router.php:38 in case the candidate for has no view key.

  • #1095 You can override the number and size for local/Amazon S3 images by changing values in /components/com_eventgallery/config.php. Before you change this file, please read the header.

Bug Fixes

  • Removed PHP 8.1 deprecation warnings

  • Lightbox/Swipebox does not use thumbnails as placeholders to prevent the usage of invalid sized placeholder images.

  • #1070 Thumbnails in Smart Search: added a workaround for Joomla 4.1.4 to prevent some unwanted image-source-URL-stripping. You need to rebuild your search-index to refresh the path to thumbnails.

Released on Saturday, 21 May 2022

Release notes

Major Changes

  • #1061 removed jQuery from the frontend. No jQuery anymore!

  • #1062 New lightbox! I updated to the latest version of PhotoSwipe. The behavior is a little differently than before. The configuration for automatically hiding the navigation is gone. On mobile devices, hiding the navigation is still possible and the picture uses the maximum of the screen.

  • #1064 Google updated the APIs to sign in. New Google Apps need new code to allow the usage of Google Photos. Please not the hint for the Redirect URLs while creating the Google Photos Account. If you dont, you might run into a redirect_uri_mismatch error while getting the token for this account.

Migration Hints

  • Right-click protection is gone. I dont want to maintain this options since it is useless but makes me maintain this code. Modern browsers make it very easy to download images. If you want to protect your images, use watermarks.

  • #1065 creating events is easier now because of improved technical fields. Those fields are not hidden, and you can take care of entering only relevant information like the folder name or the Flickr PhotoSet ID. The whole things is now called Image Source instead having a type and a folderid.

Minor Changes

  • Import/Export feature is gone. Made no sense for moving to another server since the introduction of support for categories and tags.

  • #1051 Payment and shipping methods have a new configuration field to decide of mails should be sent. If this option is set to Yes, the method will send out changes if its status changes. If set to No, payment/shipping mails are surpressed.

Bug Fixes

  • #1060 the systemcheck showed an SQL error. This is harmless but annoying. This error report is gone now.

  • #1066 the checkout page is empty if there is no dedicated menu item for the checkout. Having the menu item is no longer necessary but recommended.

Release notes

Major changes

  • #1045 added a download log which can store actions of your visitors. Youll be able to see download attempts of images and purchases. This feature is disabled by default. Go to the components options to enable it.

  • #151 Added an option to search for images using com_finder, the Smart search component. Please check the manual for details.

  • #151 In Joomla 4.1 the smart search component can show images. Event Gallery supports this now for local, Flickr and S3-hosted images.

Minor Changes

  • New S3 buckets will not allow setting ACL properies. An additional step is necessary to support this. The Amazon S3 part in the manual reflects this now.

  • #1047 show exposure time for Google Photos as a fraction instead of a decimal. This required reloading data from Google Photos. This happens at least every 24h if you dont clear the cache manually.

  • #1049 if no payment or shipping method is available, the order edit page now behaves more friendly and shows some meaningful messages. If no shipping method is available, it hides the address form.

  • #1026 delete thumbnails of local files if the file gets deleted using the Joomla backend.

Bug Fixes

  • #1048 fixes an issue which caused problems saving details for an image because of a missing value for the URL field.

  • #1050 Modules need to create links to Events. If you have a menu item showing category, those links generated 404 pages. This is now fixed and the URL path contains the category correctly.

  • #1053 Joomla 4 // fixes the deletion of orders.

  • #1054 Fixes a rare issue with handling Google Photos image URLs. If image filenames contain 'w' followed by a number (eg. w1), the image got handled incorrectly in the frontend and did not appear.

  • #1055 Download of orders of Google Photos was broken with the new download logs.

  • #1058 Prevent an exception for fields with null value in the import/export function

  • #151 Joomla 3 works differently, the changes broke the image edit feature. It works now with J4 and J3.

Important changes

Minor changes

  • #1036 the calculated local thumbnails will no longer get a modification date in the future. To allow browser caching, those images have now a cache header for 24h.

  • #1036 a new configuration allows to add a bust parameter to image URLs for local and S3 image. This helps to force an image reload even if the images are cached in the browser. Use this option if you changed images like for adding a watermark.

  • #1039 added a check for valid mime types to the upload tool for local and S3 images. Allowed: image/jpeg, image/gif, image/png. If you try to upload something else, itll fail.

  • #1040 improve the form field behavior in the Joomla 4 backend. the field description will now appear below each field. Goodbye tooltips!

  • added the CSS class eg-outer-pswp to the outer DIV of the lightbox.

Bug Fixes

  • #1038 The stripe plugin throwed a warning if you did not save the new configuration in the backend at least once.

  • #1042 Avoid division by zero exception if image metadata are unknow. This might happen if the width/height of image cant be read. Still, those images need investigation but at least they do not crash your site any longer.

  • #1043 the root category name "root" was visible in the category list view. Since it is not possible to change this name, it makes no sense to show it.

Version 4.0.0 Stable

Joomla 3.7 Joomla 3.8 Joomla 3.9 Joomla 3.10 Joomla 4.0

Released on: Sunday, 05 December 2021
Maturity Stable
Released on Sunday, 05 December 2021

Release notes

This release focuses on Joomla 4 compatibility and brings some changes to the cart and checkout.

I will move away from the old version numbering, where the "3" was there for the last 8 years and follow a common version schema. A change in the first number will signal breaking changes. If you have overridden templates or custom CSS, you need to handle those updates with special care.

Migration Hints

  • Minimum PHP version raised to PHP 7.1! Smarty will not work otherwise.

  • There are heavy changes in the structure of the cart and checkout templates (cart, address, order and review pages). If you have customizations, theyll break! Please double check your checkout after this update. In case of trouble, remove your template overrides and see if the new changes already justify your needs. The changes are already deployed on https://www.svenbluege.de/demo which might help to get an idea.

  • #989 Reworked the cart and checkout to leverage Bootstrap 5 cards. While doing this, a lot of the cart and checkout templates have changed. This starts with PHP files and ends with CSS classes and statements. If you have customizations here, theyll break!

Cart
Address page
Review page

  • Event Gallery requires now the PHP EXIF extension to read EXIF data!

Major Changes

  • #982 the Stripe payment plugin can now be configured to allow payments with Credit Card, iDEAL, Sofort, SEPA, Przelewy24, Giropay, EPS and Bancontact. Stripe offers here an out of the box solution, not additional configurations necessary. It depends on your country if those methods are supported.

  • #989 Reworked the cart and checkout to leverage Bootstrap 5 cards. While doing this, a lot of the cart and checkout templates have changed. This starts with PHP files and ends with CSS classes and statements. If you have customizations here, theyll break!

Minor Changes

  • #987 The download icon for Google Photos images will trigger a direct download instead of opening the image.

  • #992 The options for the checkout are regrouped and a new toggle is available to hide the filename in the checkout and order pages. This is useful for Google Photos and Flickr because they use long random character sequences which do not bring any additional value to your customer.

  • #996 The message field in the checkout can now be configured to be mandatory.

  • #1003 added a hint for the email template view to disable the HTML filtering while editing the template. Otherwise, HTML-tags will disappear and characters will be encoded which leads to errors in the template processing.

  • #1031 Update template engine for mails to Smarty 4.0.0

  • #1013 Joomla 4 // improve the message for a missing downloadid. A link to the update sites item is now provided to make adding the downloadid as easy as possible.

  • #1017 deleting a local Event will remove the generated thumbnails, too.

  • #971 adapt the sharing icon in the lightbox, so it looks like the sharing button on the thumbnails.

  • #1025 improve the EXIF reading to avoid exposure times like 1000/50000 or strange things like that. Event Gallery requires not the PHP EXIF extension to read EXIF data!

  • #1032 updated slider library Glide to 3.5.2

  • #1035 if the switch for overwriting data with ITPC data if off, the creation date of a file will get no longer an update. This helps if you manage this field manually.

  • #1023 The button to store the ordering for events and files in the backend was just an icon. To make it easier to find, it is now a button with a label.

Bug Fixes

  • #983 A text column cant have a not null default value. This caused SQL exceptions on some systems.

  • #984 Joomla 4 // The Google Photos Album selector did not close after selecting an album. You need to do this manually.This is fixed now.

  • #985 Joomla 4 // Downloaded ZIP-archives for Google Photos contained files without file extension.

  • #986 The social share button in the ajax list layout stopped working.

  • #988 Invalid links in modules generated in case a menu item used the root category.

  • #991 Joomla 4 // The description of Events could not be saved.

  • #990 The camera model appeared twice in the EXIF data of Google Photos.

  • #998 Joomla 4 // remove warning on categories pages in the backend.

  • #1006 Joomla 4 // make the publishing dates for an event optional for users who did not do a fresh Event Gallery installation.

  • #1005 PHP8.0 // allow deletion of local Events which have no folder attached.

  • #1001 Joomla 4 // remove invalid warning on database issues because of some update files

  • #1015 Joomla 4 // stay within the Event Gallery component after saving a category item.

  • #1021 Joomla 4 // some modules and menu items had an issue with showing a proper category drop down. That is fixed now.

  • #1019 Unpublishing the Event Gallery smart search plugin resulted in a warning and the Events stayed in the search index.

  • #1022 avoid creating multiple categories with the alias uncategorized during the installation process

  • #1016 fixes the list of user groups in the Events batch dialog

  • #1024 it was not possible to open orders which contain deleted images.

  • #1029 Joomla 4 // fixed the broken watermarks of the watermark image was selected with the new Media Manager.

  • #1033 Invalid encoding of the image type display name caused JS error in the cart and checkout.

  • #1030 Joomla 4 // The links to cart, checkout and password page did not took the current menu item into account. Now, the links to cart and checkout will look for a dedicated menu item and use this. If no extra menu item exists, the current menu item is used to render a link. Also, the layout suffix is gone, too.

  • #1034 fixes an issue where Braintree as selected or preselected payment method did not initialize after page load.

  • #1037 avoid issues with closing the files list if at least one inline form for editing file content is still open.

  • #945 improved the layout of the pay-now button for stripe by adding bootstrap button classes.

Major Changes

  • #977 move the cache folder for local images to /images/eventgallery_generated. This will prevent deleting the thumbnail cache if you install a Joomla update. If you changed the the folder already using the constants COM_EVENTGALLERY_IMAGE_CACHE_PATH and COM_EVENTGALLERY_IMAGE_CACHE_WEB_PATH, you are not affected by this change. Please double check if your images load properly. If you configured the dynamic image generation (default setting), there is no need to worry.

  • #965 Joomla 4 // publish_down for a folder is no longer mandatory.

  • #841 Amazon S3: you can upload images directly to Amazon S3 using Event Gallery. No separate client needed anymore. You can also delete images directly. On top, thumbnails are generated automatically while uploading files. Since this takes a while, the upload is slower than the one for local images.
  • Enhanced support for Joomla 4 Beta 1. The backend layout is adapted, many error pages which sneaked in during the Joomla 4 Alpha phase are fixed. If you encounter any trouble, please let me know!

Minor Changes

  • #833 Update the slider library GlideJS to 3.4.1
  • #834 Update the PhotoSwipe to 4.1.3
  • #835 Show the dedicated download button in the lightbox, too.
  • #836 adds an option to share the link to the current article instead of the event. This allows being more independent from the main component if you use the content plugin.
  • #817 Reworked the cache clear page to avoid using jQuery.
  • #817 Rebuild the selection dialog for the image content plugin to avoid the usage of jQuery.
  • #839 Avoid concurrency exceptions during updates of Google Photos albums.
  • #843 improved UI for the sync database process and the thumbnail creation.

Bug Fixes

  • #818 prevent too many images in the lightbox while using the slider. The lightbox picked up images from the clone slides.
  • #837 set the creation date of an event correctly if created via back office.
  • #840 Thumbnails in order confirmation mails do no longer go through the SEF process. This might avoid loading issues if parts of your site are protected.
  • #844, #846 remove some major errors on Joomla4
  • #849, #848 make the content plugin buttons for images and events work with Joomla 4
  • #850 Allow HTML in the additional title and description fields for categories.
