It's more complicated then i thought and it's almost impossible to finish it in these days. I will try it again as an long-time-project. But first i'm going to use the original PhotoQ and .htaccess with some RewriteEngine settings which parse the referrer like my idea for php. </p> http://www.whoismanu.com/forum/topic/editing-photoq#post-668 Thu, 17 Dec 2009 11:18:37 +0000 whoismanu 668@http://www.whoismanu.com/forum/ <p>cool, that sounds great. this could definitely be interesting.</p> <p>maybe it could even be done via a plugin. if you see what kind of hooks you would need to do this, i could probably add them to photoq. i was anyway thinking about adding a series of wordpress action/filter hooks. if it could be done like this it would make your modification independent from photoq such that you don't have to adapt it everything a new photoq version comes out.</p> <p>just keep me updated and ask if you need more help. </p> http://www.whoismanu.com/forum/topic/editing-photoq#post-665 Wed, 16 Dec 2009 21:11:18 +0000 DeBing 665@http://www.whoismanu.com/forum/ <p>Ok thank you for the infos. Now in the winter holidays, when i have enough time i'm going to try to modify your script. Maybe i can add an option, so you can choose between saving into a database or save the images in a directory. </p> <p>Yeah it would be a major modification but i think its worth enough to try it xD. </p> http://www.whoismanu.com/forum/topic/editing-photoq#post-664 Wed, 16 Dec 2009 14:08:09 +0000 whoismanu 664@http://www.whoismanu.com/forum/ <blockquote><p>Is there a "easy" way in the source to change, that the plugin saves the entire picture as blob into the database instead just the path/url?</p></blockquote> <p>i think this would need some major modifiactions as the entire plugin relies on the paths to the photo files.</p> <blockquote><p>And/or do you have a documentation of the code? xDDD (like which Function does what).</p></blockquote> <p>most functions are commented and include a phpdoc header. so i guess by running it through phpdoc you can get sth like this.</p> <blockquote><p>With my security ideas, the pictures shouldnt stay in folders on the webspace and when they are in a database, you really need a script everytime when you want to display a picture.

Please write me back as soon as possible. And another question comes up: is there an option, to save the pictures in a database? </p> http://www.whoismanu.com/forum/topic/editing-photoq#post-655 Sat, 12 Dec 2009 22:52:50 +0000 DeBing 655@http://www.whoismanu.com/forum/ <p>Hello,</p> <p>i have not found under which license you published PhotoQ so i want to ask you here:<br /> Is it allowed to modify and editing PhotoQ? </p> <p>Why i ask: because i want to add an "option"/feature, that the pictures will be only displayed if some variables are "right" (thinking of a validation algorithm with the referrer variable). If the modification works well it could, if you agree, added to the "standard". But thats future talk.</p> <p>So first i want to know, is it allowed to modify PhotoQ?</p> <p>Best regards<br /> DeBing</p> <p>P.s. Sorry for my miserable english, i am not a native english speaker. </p>
