Two minor annoyances, both related to the little widget that appears on the dashboard: https://imgur.com/a/UOQeAdj

First is related to the positioning of the widget. The widget's position is user-configurable, which I appreciate. It defaults to the first position, but then I manually move it to the end. After some (but not all) updates, it forgets where I put it and reverts to the default position again, necessitating that I move it back to where it belongs. Wasn't sure if anyone was aware of this behavior, but it does make me cringe whenever I see an update come through, wondering if it will forget where it's supposed to be.

Other thing is the separator on the number of bots blocked. I know that using a dot as a thousands separator (and a comma as the decimal point) is a common European practice, but being an American, where it's reversed, that screws with my head, as I can't help but think that it is telling me, as in my screenshot, that 44 and 219 thousandths of a bot were blocked, rather than over 44000 bots blocked. Is it possible to have a setting to where we can set it to commas for thousands and the period for the decimal point?

Like I said, minor annoyances, but I thought that I'd bring them to your attention.

Hello SchuminWeb

1) Widget position resets after some updates
The tile position is currently saved in the browser, not permanently in Piwigo. That means it can sometimes reset after an update (or when the browser clears site data), so it falls back to the default position. I’ll improve this so the position stays consistent.

2) Thousands separator (dot vs comma)
Good catch. I’ll adjust the number formatting to match the user’s language/region (so US English will display 44,219 instead of 44.219), and I’ll look into making it configurable if needed.

Best regards,

Re: BYB | Bot Protection – Questions, bug reports, feature requests

I encountered the same problem as Olaf and Klaus with plugins physically disapearing :  on an old test site that I wanted to update to v.16.1 in December. I also tested more advanced versions of PHP, up to 8.5. Apart from the plugins distributed with the Piwigo core, they were all activated but missing: these 50 plugins had simply disappeared from the server !
According to the forum response, I had to reload them all via FTP. I did that, but I also had to downgrade my PHP to version 8.2.30.


https://album.chauvigne.info/ v.15.7.0  PHP: 8.2.29
https://balades.comoni.org/  v.15.7.0 PHP: 8.2.29
Système d'exploitation: Linux - Hébergeur 1&1-Ionos - MySQL: 5.7.42
