2015-12-19 |
-
Enhancement: At long last, support for Microsoft Office files (Word, PowerPoint, Publisher, Visio), as well as a
boat-load of other formats, has been re-added to Document Gallery by way of
integration with the Thumber.co service. For a small fee you can generate images for all of your
attachments using a service designed specifically to work well with Document Gallery. For a limited time,
Thumber.co is offering a free 7-day trial of the basic subscription. If you don't like it, all you have to do is
cancel and you won't pay a penny.
-
Enhancement: The pagination footer now includes more than just "prev" and "next", allowing for quicker navigation
of long multi-page galleries. Additionally, the pagination footer will no longer be included if pagination is enabled,
but there are less than a page-length's worth of attachments in the gallery.
-
Enhancement: Massive rewrite of some core logic that had become unmaintainable. This will mean nothing to most
users, with the noted exception that if you were using the
dg_thumbers filter you'll need to change some things.
If this applies to you then you'll want to hold off on upgrading until you've had a chance to rework your usage of the
filter to map to the new expected values.
|
4.0 |
2015-11-27 |
-
Enhancement: The WordPress visual editor now displays a full gallery preview.
-
Enhancement: You can now paginate your galleries. This is especially useful in large multi-hundred item galleries.

-
Enhancement: All CSS & JavaScript is now served minified to ensure the fastest possible load time for your site.
-
Enhancement: When using taxonomies to generate your galleries (eg: media categories) you can now use term slug
instead of the name. Thanks andremalenfant for suggesting this!
-
Enhancement: The structure of the gallery output has been cleaned up, making it easier to style if you chose to
use custom CSS. NOTE: This modified structure may break existing custom CSS or PHP filtering, so be sure to check
this if you're using either of those features.
-
Bug Fix: The storage of the DG thumbnail cache was very broken. Due to how the cache was originally designed, it
ran into issues at large scale and on busy sites, which resulted in difficult to track bugs. The entire storage
mechanism for the cache has been rewritten from the ground up to address this issue, which will result in faster
gallery generation and more reliable performance.
-
Bug Fix: In the thumbnail management tab of the DG settings, sorting by title was broken. This has been fixed.
-
Bug Fix:
Limit was not working in cases where the ids or include attribute were present. This has been fixed.

2015-10-06 |

Enhancement: No more waiting a LONG time for your new gallery to load. If you create a new gallery and view
it, rendering will complete immediately and the thumbnails will be generated after your gallery initially loads.

needing to manually write the shortcode.

|
3.0 |
2015-03-13 |
-
Notice: Google Drive support has been removed as recent changes to how the service functions
have made it no longer useful in thumbnail generation. A replacement for supporting MS Office
filetypes (and other filetypes not supported in existing options) is in the works and we hope
to release it soon.

Document Gallery CSS and replace it with his/her own.
-
Deprecation: The deprecated
dg_doc_icon filter has been removed. Developers should use
dg_icon_template .
-
Deprecation: The
localpost option has been deprecated and will be removed at a future date.
If you are currently using localpost=false then it should be replaced by id=-1 .

firewall or on a local network where Google Drive Viewer will not be able to function.
-
Enhancement: Handling of custom CSS was improved. Page load speed should be improved
in some cases.

multiple people. I would like to give a massive thank you to
demur who has been an equal
partner throughout the development of this version. Couldn't have done it without you!
-
Note: With multiple developing this project, it made sense to setup
a formal method to track issues and possible future enhancements. With this in mind
we've begun to maintain an issue tracker.

-
Enhancement: You can now view which thumbnails have been generated and manually
delete individual thumbnails from the Document Gallery settings page, located at

Logging can be configured and viewed directly from the Document Gallery settings
page.
-
Enhancement: Max width and height of generated thumbnails is now configurable.
-
Enhancement: We had a couple of reports of the Document Gallery options
being corrupted in some installs, so we added functionality to force validation
of option structure on save. This will not be of much use to most users, but
will help us track down some of the more difficult to reproduce bugs.
-
Enhancement: For developers. New filters have been added to support modifying all
aspects of HTML generated by the plugin. Look at the Installation tab for documentation
on these new filters.

when running WordPress in WP_DEBUG

350% faster than using Imagick (IM)? Try testing with
this file,
which finished almost instantly using GS, but took multiple minutes when
using IM on my test server (results may vary). See new FAQ tab to find out why.
|
2.0.2 |
2014-03-28 |
-
Bug Fix: Imagick was actually never working... My bad -- it is now! Thanks to
kaldimar for reporting this.
-
Enhancement: Document Gallery en el Espaol por Andrew de
WebHostingHub. (To help translate to another
language, see here.)
|
2.0.1 |
2014-03-23 |
-
Bug Fix: Resolves issue with
2.0 where DG options were not properly
initialized when the plugin was updated. This caused the settings page to
behave oddly and many other things throughout to not work as expected when
you updated through the dashboard. Thanks to jawhite & rigbypa for
reporting this!
|
2.0 |
2014-03-22 |
-
Enhancement: This release is a BIG deal! We are introducing true
document thumbnails (rather than the boring static images that were the same
for every document), meaning that you will be able to generate and display
thumbnails for most of your documents so your users can see a preview of the
document before downloading. This has been
months in development
and I really hope that you all enjoy it!
-
Enhancement: Document Gallery now has a settings page where you can
configure the default options for your galleries and chose how thumbnails are
generated.
-
Enhancement: Customizing CSS for your document gallery is now much easier.
If you want to add additional styling, just navigate to
Settings -> Document Gallery
in your dashboard and enter valid CSS in the "Custom CSS" textbox. See the changes
instantly in your galleries!
-
Enhancement: Entire plugin is now
Internalization-enabled.
This means that we can now support users speaking all languages. If you are
interested in translating Document Gallery into a language that you speak,
please let me know!
-
Enhancement: This release saw much of the backend refactored to better
support future development. Nothing you will notice unless you're digging into
the code, but it will keep me sane long-term ;)
-
Note: The thumbnail generation implementation works very hard to support
all hosting servers (including Unix and Windows systems). That said, I cannot
test on all hosts out there, so there is the potential for bugs to appear.
If you notice something that doesn't look right, please don't hesitate to
report the issue
so that I can resolve it. Thanks!
|
1.4.1 |
2013-12-31 |

2013-12-31 |
-
Note: This release includes an increase in the minimum WP version to 3.5.
If you have not yet upgraded to at least this version, you should consider doing
so as future releases include a number of fantastic new features as well as
many security improvements. If you chose not to upgrade, you must stay with
Document Gallery 1.4.1 or lower until you do. Sorry for the inconvenience!
-
Bug Fix: Resolved icons being displayed differently depending on which
user was currently logged in. (Thanks to
Sean
for reporting the issue.)
-
Enhancement: A number of new icons were added (mainly for the iWork suite
and source code filetypes) and a number of pre-existing icons were removed if
they were very similar to another icon.
-
Under The Hood: Many, many cool things. Stay tuned for a big reveal in the
coming weeks!
PS: If you're really curious, there are some clues in the source code ;)

for pointing this out!)
|
1.3 |
2013-02-08 |
-
New Feature: It is now possible to filter the HTML produced to represent
each individual icon, making it possible to add extra attributes and other
modifications on the fly as document icons are generated. This will probably
only be of use to developers and people who don't mind getting their hands
dirty. (See bottom **Installation* tab for more details.)*
-
Enhancement: There have been a lot of optimizations to the underlying
plugin code to make it run more efficiently and be easier to read, if you
are so inclined.

the icons.

- Plugin now has 36 icons representing 72 filetypes!
- Added fallback to WordPress default icons if you happen to include one of the few filetypes not yet supported.
- Changed shortcode to
[dg] ([document gallery] will still work for backward compatibility).
- Gave documentation some much needed revisions.
