I have added support for a CMS called "SPIP" (see www.spip.net) which is fairly popular in Europe, especially in France. Check it out, it's pretty good, with excellent multilingual support.

I did this by writing a new "UserDB.php" and a new "User.php" class in a similar way to what is done with other CMS systems, and I extended "init.php" to add detection code for SPIP. I can provide a patch against 1.4.4.

2 things:

1. What is the next step? Is there any chance this can be added to be mainstream Gallery distribution? What's the process?

2. Any spip user reading this forum who would be interested/willing to test this? Basically, you just need to install gallery (of course), then do a "<INCLURE(gallery/index.php)>" somewhere in your skeleton (this is spip terminology :-?

Thanks for your feedback,

Edouard

well i live in europe and know lots of cms, but never heard of spip ;)
however, it's great that you could integrate gallery with spip. if the moderators overlook this post you can send them a personal message via the forum.

The best way would be to submit a patch to the SourceForge page.

OK, I just submitted a patch to the patch tracking system.

This adds support for SPIP, including the User database. I tested most functions of gallery and it seems to be working fine. SPIP is autodetected in index.php (similar to phpnuke etc).

Please give me your feedback, this needs to be tested by a few people, I guess, so that we can say it's working.

Regards,

Edouard

Hi Edouard...

I'm using SPIP for my website... I'd like to test your module as i'm looking for a good gallery integration within my webpages. If you could tell me how to get your files, I would be very glad.

I was developper for another CMS, and I'm beta-testing two new CMS. I know about testing things, and I would like to test this gallery stuff.

Thanks in advance for the work you did with spip...

Forget it... I just checked the phpinfo of my website... I don't have imagemagic, I use GD and GD2, and i'm not on a dedicated server... It's just mutualized...

So I can't use Gallery (shame, I can't get Coppermine working inside spip...)

You can install NetPBM in your home directory, as long as exec works and safe_mode isn't enabled.
