Coppermine Photo Gallery is a picture gallery script.
Users can upload pictures with a web browser (thumbnails are created on the fly), add comments, send e-cards and view statistics about the pictures.
The admin can manage albums/pictures/comments and batch add pictures that have been uploaded by FTP.
There is a simple theme mechanism that allows to change the color scheme used by the album and the script can read digicam EXIF data in jpeg images.
The script use PHP, a MySQL database and the GD library (version 1.x or 2.x) or ImageMagick to make the thumbnails. An install script makes the installation very fast and easy.
Watch the demo and download the script if you like it.
Once the script is running on your site and you have added some nice pictures add a link to your site in the link database.
There is a bug in the file "include/init.inc.php" shipped with Coppermine that in some circumstances can cause real problems in the script.
If you downloaded the script before this announcement was posted you should replace your init.inc.php file with the patched one.
If you are using version 1.0RC3 of the script get it
If you are using version 1.0RC1 of the script get it
To install the patched file, unzip the archive and upload the new init.inc.php file in the "include" folder of Coppermine on your server (overwrite the existing one).
has translated Coppermine into Italian, visit the User contributions download section to get her version.

Coppermine 1.0 ported for phpnuke in a real module

but in a iframe ;-) so now it's a real module !!
I will continue the port for all futures version of coppermine.
Exifer enables Coppermine to extract EXIF headers without using PHP EXIF functions. Instead, it uses Jake Olefsky's () Exifer. Except for the advantage of not having to enable PHP EXIF functions (maybe your ISP doesn't even allow you to), it also extracts much more (detailed) information than PHP does.
The corresponding patch is available in the Patches / Add-ins download area.

There is a new index page available in the Patches / Add-ins download area.
This index page offers a more compact display for the album list and allows to display a block of random pictures. The page can be configured when you are logged as the admin.

Buggy config.php utility
Posted by Greg on: Thursday 14 November @ 08:14:04
Important:If you downloaded version 1.0 of the config utility, get the updated version now.
There is a stupid bug in the 1.0 version that prevents Last xxx/ Top ... pages to work correctly. Once you have upgraded run the config.php script and enter a value of 50 for instance for 'Number of entries in top/last ... lists' (this entry is near the bottom of the config page).

Two new utilities for Coppermine
Posted by Greg on: Wednesday 13 November @ 21:19:47
There are two new utilities for Coppermine in the Patches / Add-ins download area.
One is a utility that allows to configure most of Coppermine 1.0RC3 options without having to edit the config file. It is based on what Spaceman made for its Coppermine YaBB SE module
The other utility allows the admin to quickly review the last comments that have been posted in the Gallery and select those that need to be deleted.

Compact one-page summary page for albums

Anonymous writes: "Although Coppermine Photo Gallery is an excellent piece of software, one short-coming is that, when you have a number of albums, it becomes a little long-winded to find the album you want especially if you are trying to avoid long pages on your site.
After a few user complaints I have created a new summary page on my web site allowing much quicker navigation of the albums.
As this maybe useful to other coppermine users, I have released details of the patch on my web site:
