I wrote a comment-management system for Gallery 2. If anyone is interested, please feel free to give it a test drive. It's basically free, but a link or donation would be nice. It has been tested on PHP 5.1.6 and MySQL 5.0.51, so if you have an earlier version of PHP or MySQL, see if it works for you and let me know if you have any problems. Here's the link: I hope it saves you tons of time and aggravation. |

Thanks for your contribution!
I have a few suggestions for the next version:
1. perhaps you could load config.php and this will fill the DB parameters automatically.
2. have the directions put the file in /lib/support so that is protected or use some other form of protection in #1 is followed.
It would be nice to have some codex page that could link to your directions for download so when people are searching the documentation they will see it.
also a link in the user contributed modules would help as well.
Cheers!
Dave

Great. Thanks for the suggestions.
"(1) perhaps you could load config.php and this will fill the DB parameters automatically."
The program has the ability to be configured by simply linking to it with the database parameters in the query string. This makes it easy for anyone who wants to manage spam comments with a single click.
This feature also makes it easy for those who are managing any number of Gallery installations.
It also can perform commands for your without using the GUI, so you can put your own face on it.
I did consider adding a feature where a list of configurations could be stored in a file and the user could select the one they want with a dropdown. I can add this if enough interest is generated.
There is a lot you can do. Here is a link to the directions:

"(2) have the directions put the file in /lib/support so that is protected or use some other form of protection in #1 is followed."
OK. Thanks for the suggestion.
If people show an interest, I'll be happy to make improvements and updates as they are requested.
So far, I have not heard any feedback at all.
I have a forum set up here for feedback:

Any other ideas/suggestions are welcome.
Thanks.
