Title: FYI: New Gallery Coming Soon
Post by: Oldiesmann on October 30, 2018, 07:24:44 PM
Just a heads-up to everyone... After 10 years or so we will be moving to a new gallery system in the near future. The current system has not been developed for years and is filling up the forum error log due to old code (and upgrading the code is far beyond my capabilities due to the amount of code and its complexity).

The current plan is to uninstall the old system and download all the images to my computer, then import them into the user albums once the new system is up and running. I plan to move to an embedded gallery (like what we're using at S&F) as it's simpler to maintain than an external system like Coppermine.

Unfortunately this will also break any posts using images from the current gallery, but we can always update those manually once the new system is in place.

I am not sure yet when I will have the new system installed, but will keep everyone up to date on the changes.
