I have used Gallery 1.x http:\/\/gallery.menalto.com for years on my site and it always worked well for my needs and sat inside my old PostNuke CMS.<\/p>\n
I had tried to upgrade to Gallery 2 at some point but failed.<\/p>\n
Now that I really do need to upgrade I have found that the Gallery 3 has been out and stable for some time, but the upgrade process requires G1 -> G2 -> G3 as there is no G1 ->G3 path.<\/p>\n
So I am currently working on a Gallery upgrade.<\/p>\n
Migrated my old G1 install to my dev server and modified the config so that it would run correctly.<\/p>\n
Installed Gallery 2 and tried following the migration instructions<\/a>. This included a need to Activate the URL Rewrite <\/a>plugin. This gave me some grief as it would not go past the ‘configure’ option. Until I realised that I need to ‘tick’ the select box ‘Force’ in the PathInfo screen when clicking on Save. This forces the save despite the system not correctly detecting the PathInfo success.<\/p>\n Next I installed Gallery 3 and that is a real improvement over the convoluted process for installing in G2. They have taken the lead from WordPress with the really simple install process. Enabling a migration from G2 to G3 is running and from there I’ll be looking to start doing some themes and plugins.<\/p>\n The purpose is to get my toy car collection visible and start updating as it has not changed in 5 years!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I have used Gallery 1.x http:\/\/gallery.menalto.com for years on my site and it always worked well for my needs and sat inside my old PostNuke CMS.
