iPhotoToGallery Patch

Zach Wily provides the Gallery2 and iPhoto community with his wonderful iPhotoToGallery exporter for iPhoto.

With my new [[post-media:256_gallery]][] and my iPhoto workflow, I am an eager user of that plugin. One small thing that can become a little bit embarrassing is a bug that introduces double slashes in the URL.

Because Zach provides the source code of this exporter, I was able to fix it and herewith provide a patched [iPhotoToGallery 0.65.1][] version of the exporter that does not have this problem. You can check the [patch][] to get an idea what I changed in the code, but be told that it consisted of adding only a few lines of code.

InstallationYou install the exporter manually:

• Download the [iPhotoToGallery 0.65.1][] ZIP file

• Unzip it, you will see a iPhotoToGallery.iPhotoExporter folder

• Change to the iPhoto application in the /Application folder

• Open the “More info” (Or “Get info”) window and navigate to the “Plugins” section

• Click “Add” and select the “iPhotoToGallery.iPhotoExporter” folder created during unzip

• Allow the occasional overwrite (if you had the Plugin installed before)

• (Re-)start iPhoto

Et voilà. You’ll see the new version number in the export window and I also added my name to the copyright list, so you know who messed up Zach’s code. ;) The “Donate” link still points to Zach. Credit where credit is due.
