LiveFrame Gallery 0.94
The Upgrade Guide

   

 

(this file is also available in the distribution as a text file called "UPGRADE".)


Upgrading to LiveFrame Gallery 0.94
(or, what you MUST do to use existing LiveFrame galleries with 0.94)

  A. the default separator in LiveFrame gallery configuration files has 
     changed from ":" to "}".  to use your existing LiveFrame galleries, 
     you must EITHER:
     
       1. change the $sepchar configuration option in liveframe.cgi from
         "}" back to ":", or;
      
       2. replace the ":" in each gallery configuration file with "}".
      
     (this was done because lots of folks wanted to use colons in gallery 
      names and captions.)

  
  B. modify the configuration values in liveframe.cgi to point to the 
     proper places in the directory structure.

     (this obviously has to be done each time you replace the script.)


  C. change the name of the "series" directory to "galleries".
  
     (this was changed for clarity.)

  
  D. change the name of the "tmpl" directory to "templates".
  
     (the name change was made for clarity.  the additional templates
      support many new features, and further separate the html from the
      script itself.)
      
  E. replace the contents of your templates directory with the templates, 
     included with the 0.94 distribution, migrating any html changes you 
     made by hand.  
     
     (unfortunately, there are too many new features and changes to the 
      way the system works to support the old templates.)

0.94.
