But... This is some great documentation, thank you.

How do we get this added to the official docs, because they really need these missing docs for Drupal v6.

I followed the instructions for Image Attach in INSTALL.txt and it worked perfectly. I am using Image 6.x-1.0-alpha4

Prog gallery may not work with the private file system:

Considering PROG Gallery.module is still in -dev it is very possible there are still bugs in it and it shouldn't be used in a production site. It is released for testing and bug fixing.

Moving this thread to the proper project. In future try and control your frustration so that it doesn't cloud your judgement.

Will do :)

As a matter of fact, I am tired of this module too (in my case - PROG Gallery module). Sometimes I actually don`t know why am I doing this, because I do not develop drupal sites anymore (that`s why I dont know much about views, taxonomy or internationalization) nor I get any money for this work. I started this project last summer-autumn, within those 5 monthes I worked for PROG and because I feel so lame about galery code, I try to make it better on my own all this time just like that. I actually do not have any profit or good word about this stuff (except users who dont know how much this project sucks, or sometimes Mikelis or Artis cheers me up and says "good, you are still trying to do this").

really, I dont know why, because I have another work to do, I have to help my close friend to make some important project and because of situation in my country I have to get one more job that actually gives some money.

Times like these I think I`ll burn out with this waste of time.

Don't worry about it, Jancis!

If you have more important stuff to do, you should attend to it.
I hoped that you work on this module out of love to it (not hate or dislike).

That's the beauty of open source. You should do it because of the love to the software (or need for it).

If someone finds this module usefull and sensefull to carry on, they will do so.
PROG (the company) is using this module on a couple of sites and I see the potential in this module.
We will do our best to produce a decent 1.0 release for Drupal 6.

I hope that you will follow the development of this module as much as you can.
And maybe you'll come back to it after you've dealt with your other stuff.

Mikelis, PROG

As for the issue. It is clear that prog_gallery doesn't support private file system.
Does image module for D6 require private file system?

Ok, I understand that private file system support would be reasonable thing to support for prog_gallery.

I'll test the latest dev version later tonight.
Let's try to figure it out together.

So, on line 324 it should be:

$dirpath = variable_get('file_directory_path','sites/default/files/'). variable_get('image_default_path', 'images') .'/temp/';// . date('Y/m/d');

instead of:

$dirpath = 'sites/default/files/'. variable_get('image_default_path', 'images') .'/temp/';// . date('Y/m/d');

And I guess it would work just ok.

Private file system is not supported by prog_gallery (if image folder will be below web directory it will work but images will be available publicly).
Open a new issue if you think it should.

ok thanks for the help

This fix could still cause some errors with private files option enabled
variable_get('file_directory_path','sites/default/files/'). variable_get('image_default_path', 'images')

so it has been rewritten to
variable_get('file_directory_path','sites/default/files') .'/'. variable_get('image_default_path', 'images')

Changes will be active in CVS tomorrow. Also I implemented this fix into Drupa 5 dev version.
