Welcome to phpBB Gallery version 3.3.x
This is direct port of nickvergessen's phpBB Gallery 1.1.6 for phpBB 3.0. As he has no time to support it or to port it, I have taken this on my self. The phpBB Gallery is very good project and I use it heavily. This is why I can't leave it and just wait for someone to port it or to create alternative.
This project will include only base core code and functioning add-ons which will expand this code.
If you like this extension or just like my code - buy me a beer/coffee/license for PhpStorm :D

Make plugins work again Highslide JS, Shadowbox and Lytebox support (These scripts must be downloaded separately because of the license) or maybe remove and add new ones. Points Ext. Compatibility (Addon)
If you can make me think of it as core function I will add it. Such function is going to be the contests, the plupload support and jQuery based visualization libraries.
If you can't - you can always PR a event and write the function yourself.
If you want to contribute to this project do it as you will any other project - clone the repo and make a PR against it. I will review your code. Your code should be documented and your PR message should describe the changes you've made.
As I said the 1.2 version will be primarily targeted as backwards compatible with phpBB Gallery 1.1.6 MOD (DB will be the same but you will have to manually move your images to the new location).
3.2.x is providing phpBB 3.2 compatibility and some code optimization. When initial release is done I will start adding features.
Version 3.3.x will be compatible to phpBB 3.3 and will have new features.
This ext installs as every other phpBB extension:
- Clone the repo to ext folder OR download the zip file and copy phpbbgallery to your ext folder
- Go to ACP -> Customise -> Manage extensions
- Activate phpBB Gallery
- (optional) Activate needed extensions.
This is task that could not be automated. You will have to do some work. Just follow this guide.
