Would be great if you could even add Membergroups to the Private settings - if a member wants their gallery visible to forum members but not the public, it is impossible to add all members to a Private Group approved list manually but much quicker to add a membergroup (eg.  adding the Regulars membergroup would achieve this in one go).

Just a suggestion.

In meantime, will advise that password might have to do.

not a hard thing to add.

Did you find anything else about the thumbnails having been moved or anything?

Would be great if you could add a membergroup addition/restriction to the gallery privacy settings in future version.

No luck on the thumbnails issue.

There really should not have been any movement of those files at all. The conversion script reported all worked although it seemed it did not actually succeed in everything.

Doing some more checking on actual files now.

ok if not might need to make a mini script to attempt to redo the thumbnails for all the images that have broken thumbnails/image is 0 bytes in size.

I really cannot work out what is going on.

The person who helped me do the upgrade advises conversion script worked for 2 hours and then stopped - there was only a blank page, no message or indication about any error. Since there wasn't any error they assumed the process was completed.

Cannot re-run the script again at this point because it requires aeva to be installed and that has been removed.  The data should still be in the old mgal folder that all the original data is in.  But I am very confused by what is happening there because some images which show in the gallery under details page (but dont have a thumbnail) do not seem to be in that old folder - they must be somewhere because they are visible using the direct html link but I cannot see them in cpanel file manager or Filezilla.

There is nothing on the Albums folder under the Gallery folder - lots of album folders in the old mgal folder.

Can I PM you some login details to look at this for me (and reimburse you for cost of doing so as this is getting beyond just answering a few questions).

cheers
Leah

You can pm me an ftp and admin account  on the forum.
I should be able to fix the thumbnails. Is that the only issue outstanding?

thanks - PM just sent.

Thumbnails is main issue.  We also have the message thread links - you gave me a script to run for that problem but said not to try it until the thumbnails were fixed so I have not started on that one yet.

Just wanted to say a public thank you to smfhacks for helping with this conversion.  We had quite a few issues (some relating to some previous errors in the aeva gallery and some I think relating to not running the conversion script correctly).  The developer went far and beyond what should be expected of them to help us get back up and running again so am very happy with the result.

One of the reasons I switched was the belief that support would be better with this one - when we turned out to need it big time, I am glad we made that decision.

Thank you again.

cheers
Leah

PS - further up the thread, I was asking about membergroup restrictions to private galleries.  Not exactly related but I did later find a global setting to restrict viewing image details to forum members which satisfied the member who was asking for this and was a reasonable thing to do overall.

Glad we were able to help. I might do a guest/regular membership for user galleries.
