If you’re a visual artist or someone who collects a lot of images, you may have a need for a custom web gallery on your website. There’s more than one way to go about creating one – you can hand-code it, use a plugin on a content management system (CMS), or use dedicated gallery software. Piwigo is an extensible, open-source photo gallery software that you can install on VPS and webhosts. In this article, we’ll walk through installing and setting up a custom web gallery with Piwigo. The easiest way to get started with Piwigo is by installing it on a shared webhost. One of the advantages of Piwigo over other photo gallery servers is that it uses PHP. This makes it easy to run even on systems where you can’t access the root user. To begin, create a new database in your webhost control panel. If your site uses cPanel, go to the MySQL Databases section to do so. Make sure to add a user to the new database and grant it all the privileges on the database. After you’ve set up a database, installing Piwigo couldn’t be easier. Your Web hosting provider may offer an automated installer, but I recommend getting Piwigo straight from the official download page to ensure that you get the latest version. Extract the Piwigo .zip file on your Downloads directory, then copy the “piwigo” folder to the root of your shared webhost directory. In my case, I will use my FTP client to send it to my webhost root. Open a new browser tab, then navigate to your shared webhost’s domain followed by the path to your Piwigo directory. Since I’ve copied mine to my webhost’s root directory, I only need to provide “/piwigo/install.php” at the end of my URL. This will bring up the installation and setup screen for Piwigo. Provide the details of your MySQL database, along with the username and password for your administrator account. Open a new browser tab, then navigate to the URL of your Piwigo instance to check if it’s working properly. Good to know: Piwigo is just one of the many gallery software suites today. Check out our list of the best self-hostable photo galleries to see which one is right for you. Aside from installing on a shared webhost, it’s also possible to run Piwigo on a dedicated VPS box. Doing this gives you control and flexibility over the programs that run alongside Piwigo. In this section, I will install Piwigo on an Ubuntu 24.04 server. Note: installing Piwigo on its own VPS requires an appropriate DNS A record for your machine that points to its IPv4 address. Start by making sure that your system is currently up-to-date: Install the dependencies for your Piwigo instance by running the following command: Switch to the root user, run initial setup prompt for MariaDB, then go inside the MariaDB console: Note: the setup script for MariaDB will ask you a bunch of questions about how you want to secure your database. For most cases, it’s safe to accept the script’s default values. Once inside MariaDB, create a simple database for your Piwigo instance: Run the following command to create a new user and set its permissions to access the new Piwigo database: Press Ctrl + D to exit the MariaDB console, then run the following command to create the site config file for Piwigo: Paste the following block of code inside your new site config file: Save your new config file, then create a symbolic link from the “/etc/nginx/sites-available” to “/etc/nginx/sites-enabled.” Navigate to your server’s webroot directory, then download the .zip file for Piwigo: Extract the entire Piwigo setup on the webroot directory, then set its appropriate permission and ownership bits: Enable both the PHP-fpm and Nginx services to start your Piwigo instance: Confirm that Piwigo is running properly by opening a web page and navigating to your domain name. On a side note: do you have an old Raspberry Pi just gathering dust? Learn how to convert your Pi into a local photo backup solution . At this point, you now have a working Piwigo instance running on either your webhost or VPS. To start using it, click the I want to add photos button on your gallery homepage. Doing this will bring up the administration page for Piwigo where you can upload and configure aspects of your instance. Click the Create a first album button to start your online web gallery. Provide a name for your new album, click Create and Select to go into your abum config page. Either click the Add Photos button or drag the photos that you want to upload to your server on the album webpage. Once you have the photos that you want in the Piwigo page, click Start Upload to begin the upload process. Once you’ve added at least one album, you can visit your Piwigo URL and view the gallery. By default, Piwigo names a new web gallery as “Just another Piwigo gallery.” You’ll probably want to change this generic title. To do so, click the Admin button on the gallery’s upper right corner. Select Configuration -> Options on the left sidebar. Provide the new name of your Piwigo gallery on the Gallery title textbox, then click Save settings to apply it. Apart from changing the gallery name, it’s also possible to change the look of your Piwigo instance. For that, click the Themes category on the admin page’s left sidebar. In here, you can either select the default theme or enable an inactive theme on your web gallery. For instance, clicking Activate on the Elegant theme will put it on your instance’s theme list. Note: you can also force a theme be the default for your gallery by clicking the “Set as Default” button. Further, Piwigo also provides a catalog of beautiful third-party themes that you can install for your gallery. To access this, click the Add new theme tab on the Themes config page. Scroll through the third-party themes, then click Install on the one that you want. Lastly, go to your instance’s theme list, then click Activate to add it to your active theme selection. There are two ways to install plugins in Piwigo. First, you can use the built-in plugins feature, which handles extension installation and management. Second, you can manually install your extension by copying it to Piwigo’s plugins directory. To use the built-in function, navigate to the Plugins category on your instance’s Administration page. Click the Add a new plugin tab to look at the available extensions for your Piwigo gallery. To manually install a plugin, first go to the official plugin page for Piwigo and look for an extension that you want to install. In my case, I wanted to use the “Community” plugin to add user submissions to my gallery. Download the plugin .zip file, then transfer it to your Piwigo instance. For instance, the following command uses SCP to transfer the plugin archive to my VPS: Go to your Piwigo instance, then move and extract the plugin’s .zip file to your gallery’s plugins directory: Note: if you’re running Piwigo on a VPS, make sure that your webserver can read your plugins folder: sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/piwigo/plugins . Confirm that you’ve installed your new plugin properly by visiting the Plugins page on your Piwigo admin screen. With that in mind, I’ll go through some of the plugins that I’ve found useful on while tinkering my personal Piwigo instance. You might be used to uploading your own favicon to a website and seeing it show up automatically in your browser. Unfortunately, this doesn’t work in Piwigo. To use your own favicon in Piwigo, install the PersoFavicon plugin. Once activated, it will show up in your administrator sidebar under Plugins . Click on it to upload a favicon in .ico format. Embedded Videos lets you embed external video files in addition to images in your Piwigo gallery. At the moment, it supports any video coming from YouTube, Vimeo, and Dailymotion. To include videos to your albums, click the Settings button underneath the Embedded Videos plugin box. Doing this will bring up the config page for Embedded Videos. The plugin interface lets you add one video at a time by URL. Note: ticking the Add film effect checkbox will include filmstrip bars on the sides of your embeds to indicate that the gallery entry is a video file. Expiry Date is a neat plugin that implements temporary images on your Piwigo gallery. It provides an automatic image deletion system and the ability to notify you when it expires. As a privacy-conscious individual, I find this extension highly valuable since it allows me to have finer control over how I share pictures online. To use this plugin, go to your Piwigo instance’s admin page and upload a new image. Once done, click Manage this set of photos , then select the images that you want to set the timer on. Scroll down to the Actions section, select “Expiry Date” on the dropdown menu, then provide the date when you want your images to expire. Community is a simple plugin that addresses Piwigo’s single-user focus. It extends the gallery’s multi-user support and allows them to create folders and upload images on your Piwigo instance. Coupled with decent access control features, Community is a must-have plugin for anyone who wants to start a collaborative photo album. To get started with Community, go to your Piwigo instance’s plugins page, then click Settings underneath the plugin box. Click Add a permission , then set the permissions you want for your gallery. In my case, I want all users to be able to upload to the “maketecheasier” folder. Piwigo-openstreetmap is a handy plugin that displays the GPS data embedded on modern JPEG images. To achieve this, the plugin uses OpenStreetMap data to show the exact location of where you took your photos. This makes it a great companion to a GPS tracking server such as uLogger. Once the plugin is up and running, piwigo-openstreetmap should work right out of the box. If you already have images in your gallery with a geolocation tag, the plugin will immediately display a map showing where you took your photos. I have been using Piwigo for a couple of months and it’s become my favorite Web-based photo gallery software. Managing a custom web gallery with Piwigo is incredibly simple, from setting up photos and albums to upgrading your installation. Learning how to install and use Piwigo as an online gallery for your photos is just the first step in creating your own self-hosted platform on the internet.

TikTok is inching closer to a potential ban in the US. So what's next? TikTok's future in the U.S. appeared uncertain on Friday after a federal appeals court rejected a legal challenge to a law that requires the social media platform to cut ties with its China-based parent company or be banned by mid-January. A panel of three judges on The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit ruled unanimously that the law withstood constitutional scrutiny, rebuffing arguments from the two companies that the statute violated their rights and the rights of TikTok users in the U.S. The government has said it wants ByteDance, TikTok's parent company, to divest its stakes. But if it doesn't and the platform goes away, it would have a seismic impact on the lives of content creators who rely on the platform for income as well as users who use it for entertainment and connection. Here are some details on the ruling and what could happen next: In their lawsuit, TikTok and ByteDance, which is also a plaintiff in the case, had challenged the law on various fronts, arguing in part that the statute ran afoul of the First Amendment and was an unconstitutional bill of attainder that unfairly targeted the two companies. But the court sided with attorneys for the Justice Department who said that the government was attempting to address national security concerns and the way in which it chose to do so did not violate the constitution. The Justice Department has argued in court that TikTok poses a national security risk due to its connections to China. Officials say that Chinese authorities can compel ByteDance to hand over information on TikTok's U.S. patrons or use the platform to spread, or suppress, information. However, the U.S. hasn't publicly provided examples of that happening. The appeals court ruling, written by Judge Douglas Ginsburg, said the law was "carefully crafted to deal only with control by a foreign adversary." The judges also rejected the claim...

The total attendance of 350,700 is the greatest for any Test match at the MCG exceeding the total of 350,534 v England in 1937 over 6 days. This is also the greatest attendance for any Test match played in Australia," said Cricket Australia in a release. The fourth Test between India and Australia has also become the second highest attended game of all time behind only the India-Pakistan game at the Eden Gardens in 1999 when the overall turnout stood at 4,65,000. It was not a record but as many as 87,242 fans watched the proceedings on day one. Day two turnout was a record with 85,147 people thronging to the stadium and so was day three when 83,073 fans walked into the iconic venue. On Sunday, the count was 43,867. All tickets for the action on Monday were priced at 10 Australian dollars.

Scrim, a 17-pound mutt that's mostly terrier, has become a folk hero, inspiring tattoos, T-shirts and even a ballad as he eludes capture from the posse of volunteers. And like any antihero, Scrim has a backstory: Rescued from semi-feral life at a trailer park and adopted from a shelter, the dog broke loose in April and scurried around the city until he was cornered in October and brought to a new home. Weeks later, he'd had enough. Scrim leaped out of a second-story window, a desperate act recorded in a now-viral video. Since then, despite a stream of daily sightings, he's roamed free. The dog’s fans include Myra and Steve Foster, who wrote “Ode to Scrim” to the tune of Ricky Nelson’s 1961 hit, “I’m a Travelin’ Man.” Michelle Cheramie, founder of Zeus' Rescues, at her office in New Orleans on Dec. 9 with a whiteboard index of sheltered cats and dogs and a Scrim look-alike recuperating in the background. 'I'm a travelin' dog and I've made a lot of stops/All over this town...' Leading the recapture effort is Michelle Cheramie, a 55-year-old former information technology professional. She lost everything — home, car, possessions — in Hurricane Katrina in 2005, and in the aftermath, found her calling rescuing pets. “I was like, ‘This is what I should be doing,’” Cheramie said. “I was born to rescue.” She launched Zeus’ Rescues, a nonprofit shelter that now averages 600 cat and dog adoptions a year and offers free pet food to anyone who needs it. She helped Scrim find the home he first escaped from. It was Cheramie's window Scrim leaped from in November. She's resumed her relentless mission since then, posting flyers on telephone poles and logging social media updates on his reported whereabouts. She's invested thousands of dollars on wildlife cameras, thermal sensors and other gear. She took a course offered by the San Diego Zoo on the finer points of tranquilizing animals. And she's developed a network of volunteers — the kind of neighbors who are willing to grid-search a city at 3 a.m. Scrim on Oct. 24 at the Metairie Small Animal Hospital in Metairie, La. '...And at every stop I own the heart, of at least one lovely...' People like writer David W. Brown, who manages a crowd-sourced Google Map of all known Scrim sightings. He says the search galvanized residents from all walks of life to come together. As they search for Scrim, they hand out supplies to people in need. “Being a member of the community is seeing problems and doing what you can to make life a little better for the people around here and the animals around you,” Brown said. Neighbor Tammy Murray had to close her furniture store and lost her father to Parkinson's disease. This search, she says, got her mojo back. “Literally, for months, I’ve done nothing but hunt this dog,” said Murray, 53. “I feel like Wile E. Coyote on a daily basis with him.” Murray drives the Zeus' Rescues van toward reported Scrim sightings. She also handles a tactical net launcher, which looks like an oversized flashlight and once misfired, shattering the van's window as Scrim sped away. After realizing Scrim came to recognize the sound of the van's diesel engine, Murray switched to a Vespa scooter for stealth. Michelle Cheramie, director of Zeus' Rescues, left, walks with Scrim on Oct. 24 at the Metairie Small Animal Hospital in Metairie, La. '...If you're ever in the 9th Ward stop and see/My cute little mini poodle...' Near-misses have been tantalizing. The search party spotted Scrim napping beneath an elevated house, and wrapped construction netting around the perimeter, but an over-eager volunteer broke ranks and dashed forward, leaving an opening Scrim slipped through. Scrim's repeated escapades prompted near-daily local media coverage and a devoted online following. Cheramie can relate. “We’re all running from something or to something," she said. "He's doing that, too.” Cheramie's team dreams of placing the pooch in a safe and loving environment. But a social media chorus growing under the hashtag #FreeScrim has other ideas — they say the runaway should be allowed a life of self-determination. The animal rescue volunteers consider that misguided. “The streets of New Orleans are not the place for a dog to be free,” Cheramie said. “It’s too dangerous.” Scrim rests in a kennel Oct. 24 at the Metairie Small Animal Hospital in Metairie, La. '...and my Shar-Pei doll down in old Treme/Waits for my return...' Scrim was a mess when Cheramie briefly recaptured him in October, with matted fur, missing teeth and a tattered ear. His trembling body was scraped and bruised, and punctured by projectiles. A vet removed one, but decided against operating to take out a possible bullet. The dog initially appeared content indoors, sitting in Cheramie's lap or napping beside her bed. Then while she was out one day, Scrim chewed through a mesh screen, dropped 13 feet to the ground and squeezed through a gap in the fence, trotting away. Murray said Cheramie's four cats probably spooked him. Cheramie thinks they may have gotten territorial. Devastated but undeterred, the pair is reassessing where Scrim might fit best — maybe a secure animal sanctuary with big outdoor spaces where other dogs can keep him company. Somewhere, Murray says, “where he can just breathe and be.” Scrim sits in the arms of Zoey Ponder on Oct. 24 at Metairie Small Animal Hospital in Metairie.
