Bugs

Before reporting bugs

  • Read the section about server and browser requirements
  • Make sure you've disabled the original Pictures app
  • Read the "Known issues" section below
  • Get the latest version of the app from the releases page
  • Check if they have already been reported in Gallery and Gallery+

Known issues

Within deep folders

  • It may take longer to initialise the view as we're parsing every parent folder to look for configuration files

Configurations

  • If you have write access on a share belonging to another ownCloud instance, editing the configuration file in your folder will also modify the original folder

When reporting bugs

  • Enable debug mode by putting this at the bottom of config/config.php
DEFINE('DEBUG', true);
  • Turn on debug level debug by adding loglevel" => 0, to your config/config.php and reproduce the problem
  • Check data/owncloud.log

Please provide the following details so that your problem can be fixed:

  • Owncloud log (data/owncloud.log)
  • Browser log (Hit F12 to gain access)
  • ownCloud version
  • App version
  • Browser version
  • PHP version

Preparation

Here is a list of steps you might want to take before using the app

Supporting more media types

First, make sure you have installed ImageMagick and its PECL extension. Next add a few new entries to your config/config.php configuration file.

  'preview_max_scale_factor' => 1,
  'enabledPreviewProviders' =>
  array (
    0 => 'OC\\Preview\\PNG',
    1 => 'OC\\Preview\\JPEG',
    2 => 'OC\\Preview\\GIF',
    11 => 'OC\\Preview\\Illustrator',
    12 => 'OC\\Preview\\Postscript',
    13 => 'OC\\Preview\\Photoshop',
    14 => 'OC\\Preview\\TIFF'
  ),

Look at the sample configuration (config.sample.php) in your config folder if you need more information about how the config file works. That's it. You should be able to see more media types in your slideshows and galleries as soon as you've installed the app.

Improving performance

Assets pipelining

Make sure to enable "asset pipelining", so that all the Javascript and CSS resources can be mixed together. This can greatly reduce the loading time of the app.

Read about it in the Administration Manual

Installation

IMPORTANT: Make sure you've disabled the original Pictures app

Installing from archive

  • Go to the the releases page
  • Download the latest release/archive to your server's owncloud/apps/ directory
  • Unpack the app
  • IMPORTANT: Rename it to galleryplus

Installing from Git

In your terminal go into the owncloud/apps/ directory and then run the following command:

$ git clone https://github.com/interfasys/galleryplus.git

Now you can activate it in the apps menu. It's called Gallery

To update the app go inside you owncloud/apps/galleryplus/ directory and type:

$ git pull --rebase
