fGallery+ WordPress plugin | Table does not exist

I installed fGallery+ for a client but was getting an error message that the “Table wp_fim_cat does not exist.” On the forum it said this happens occasionally, it’s a bug.

Fix: copy the SQL code from fgallery-plugin.php for all three tables, change the table names appropriately, i.e.,

as is:
$sql1 = “CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS $table_name_images (
id smallint(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
image varchar(255) default NULL,
download varchar(255) default NULL,
date datetime default NULL,
title varchar(255) default NULL,
description TEXT default NULL,
cat varchar(10) NOT NULL,
status varchar(50) default ‘include’,
PRIMARY KEY (id)
)”;

cut ‘n’ paste into phpMyadmin:

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS $wp_fim_images (
id smallint(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
image varchar(255) default NULL,
download varchar(255) default NULL,
date datetime default NULL,
title varchar(255) default NULL,
description TEXT default NULL,
cat varchar(10) NOT NULL,
status varchar(50) default ‘include’,
PRIMARY KEY (id)
)

    this may seem like a very random question but hopefully someone will see (maybe email notification on comments?)

    anyways, I have been trying to get fgallery+ beause fgallery is not working properly for me (and is ancient). i tried getting nextgen gallery, but i am stuck with wp 2.0.9 (not compatible)

    so i want to try fgallery+.. but the main website for the sfotware seems to be down.

    do you have the plugin code? I just want to add it. email it to me if you do. you probably can just copy the folder form your plugins directory and send that to me if you can do it

    fgallery.4.hypn0toad@spamgourmet.com

    if anyone sees this.. a thousand thanks!

    Hi Nate,

    Sure, I’ll send you the fgallery+ code, no problem. But just so you know, it’s really easy to do a WordPress upgrade if you have access to your website’s administrative login. They explain how to do it here:

    Good luck!

    The more time that is spent dissecting, analyzing, and critiquing a design by the wrong kinds of people the worse that design gets. The same trend applies to the number of people involved in the design process.
    Thx a lot for infomation!

    Wow! I’m glad this information is still useful. I switched over to using NextGen a while back, but now I’m glad I left this info live.
