Self hosted Piwigo assistance required

Hello all,

Hello all, I am a bird photographer and was hoping to find a free software to store my bird photos in taxonomic archive. A few of my friends recommended piwigo, more specifically the free self hosted version. I have been using the web version (cloud supported) of Piwigo on a 15 day free trial, but realised that was not what I was looking for, as my files are mostly jpeg and relatively small, therefore I do not require cloud storage. I tried to download the self hosted piwigo on my laptop, I have the zip file which I unzipped once, but am not sure where to go from there. I am using a Macbook Pro if that helps. Any help would be very welcome, and thanks for reading!

Re: Self hosted Piwigo assistance required

Hi,

Your Macbook Pro is turned on 24 hours a day, 7 days a week

If Piwigo is installed on it and you want people to visit your site, the computer must be turned on at all times.


You love Piwigo so don't hesitate to participate, learn more on the "Contribute to Piwigo" page. If you don't have much time for contribution, you can also help the project with a donation.
