Hi,

At Google photos i didn't found the option to make an album public. If i take the share-option the album is only restricted (i see it in the archive at picasa.google.com). The import-option of event gallery doesn't import this new albums with restricted.

I found an ticket where i read that the version 3.6.1 can import such albums but i have the problem that my server has only php 5.3.10 and i can't update to 5.4 at ubuntu lucid (and event gallery 3.6.x only supports php 5.4)

How can i solve the problem?

Hi,

you're using PHP 5.3? Are you running a honeypot for hackers? :) It's very unsafe to use an unsupported PHP version. You don't even use the latest version of PHP 5.3. You need to update at least to PHP 5.6 to benefit from new PHP fixes.

But for your actual problem I have a solution: https://www.svenbluege.de/blog/software/200-picasa-google-photos-event-gallery
Just use this tool: https://www.svenbluege.de/picasa/v1.1/
It can publish your albums so you can use them again.

I know the php problem, but it's a long story. (the short version: i loose my technical support if i make a dist-upgrade of ubuntu, my provider wants me to buy a new product if i need a new distribution and i didn't have the time to set up a completly new server :-/ )

Whats the last version version of Event Gallery Extended 3.5 which works with php 5.3 and where i can get ist? Yesterday i removed 3.6.1 and installed my version of 3.5.2 and after that my joomla didn't worked until i removed it :-(

So you have technical support for a site which a easy hacking target? But it seems like you're aware of this.

Try Event Gallery 3.5.4 and grab the router.php from Event Gallery 3.6.1 to fix the compatibility issue with Joomla 3.6.2. I send you the install file by mail.
