Piwigo - 2.6.2
A friend of mine had an archive web site built for him 4 years old.
He had accumulated over 50 years a vast collection of photos, magazine reports and movies relating to a minority sport.
Unfortunately the site was built in an old fashioned way, the webmaster lost interest after a while with the work load and my pal was unable to update it.
I had a chat with him, said I would help.
I then found Piwigio - Which is perfect in every way, I can upload his 7,000 jpegs, various films in flv and his 1,000 or so pdf's!
Installation was simple although I needed to change some permissions on my host server to allow some images to show.
I have only needed to use 2 plugins, Charlies' and Additional Pages for this project.
The only down side is that I am having to rename some of his PDF's (He has put spaces in the title) to allow them - Is it possible this could changed for the future please?
Thanks again all - I will post a link on this thread when the uploading is complete!
