Pblog

SecurityFocus incorrectly reports a vulnerability in this module. See SA-2008-031 - Pblog - Incorrect vulnerability report for details.

When you create a pblog entry it allows you to upload a zip file containing images along with the normal text body. Once you have submitted the pblog entry it unzips the file, creates thumbnails and medium size versions of the images. In the teaser for the node it will display a random image out of the gallery and in the node under the blog entry it displays a gallery of thumbnails.
If you click on a thumbnail it shows you the medium size image, and allows you to skip forward or backwards through the gallery or view the full size image.

About

My "blog" is all based around my digital camera. I take pictures of things that happen, the module aims to make it easy to upload a ton of photos with a blog. The teaser show a random picture and links to the main node with a gallery of all the pics.
There is also a block that displays a random pic from all your pblogs. Ive tried to make it as simple as possible, no database fiddling needed. Just copy pblog.module to your modules dir enable and your ready to go.

User Comments

It works beautifully. Thank you so much. This is a very valuable module. I write blogs from places where entire population is still on dialup. I was in a net cafe in the countryside in Tanzania, where a dozen workstations SHARED a single weak dialup connection. Text pages flowed in like molasses in winter. Just imagine how your module comes in handy in such places. Instead of banging my head on an ancient CRT for an hour, praying that a single image upload goes through on the nth try, now I can upload --- hopefully --- entire set of zipped files at once.
