Hi,
TFU/JFU 2.14 for Joomla 1.5.x and 1.6.x are now released.
simply go to the website and get the latest version. Ther you also find the main changes. For details always check the history in the packages.
I have also reworked the FAQ of TFU. You now have howto 19 which helps you to understand error messages better which are caused by the server.
WFU 2.14 is almost ready and you can already download the 1.8.5 preview in the forum. You can already use 1.8.5. I currently only do some internal stuff.
Have fun using TFU,JFU,

Hi,
when using round corners and the magnifying glass of the lightbox the magnifying glass shows above the image.
This is a style sheet issue which is now fixed in the 1.8.5 preview of the forum.

Hi,
I was looking for the best and fastest way to read the size of a directory. I found a lot of pure php functions which are very slow. I also found some optimized ways depending on the OS. I put all of them together where first the OS dependent versions are used and then the php one as backup.
On my local system the windows version was 18 times faster than the php version.
I have tested this on a couple of systems which where all using the optimized version. So feel free to use this methods.
You can download the functions here:

Below you find the (unfortunately) unformatted code.
Have fun using it

/**
* Optimized way to the the size of a directoy.

* First the windows or Unix way is tried. If this fails

*/
function getFoldersize($path, $legacy = true) {
$size = -1;
if ($legacy) {
if (substr(@php_uname(), 0, 7) == "Windows"){
// we have to make the path absolute !
$path_ab = realpath($path);
$obj = new COM ( 'scripting.filesystemobject' );
if ( is_object ( $obj ) ) {
$ref = $obj->getfolder ( $path_ab );
$size = $ref->size;
$obj = null;
}
} else { // hopefully unix - du has to be in the path. If it is not you have to adjust the path.
$io = popen ( 'du -sb ' . $path, 'r' );
$usize = trim(fgets ( $io, 4096));
$split = preg_split('/\s+/', $usize);
$usize = $split[0];
pclose ( $io );
if (is_numeric($usize)) {
$size = $usize;
}
}
}
// backup if both ways fail. It is ~ 18 times slower (tested on windows) than one of the solutions above.

$size = foldersize($path);

Hi,
The 1.8.5 preview does now support canonical URLs.
This means that there is an additional attribute in the header that tells search engines that e.g.
http://www.tinywebgallery.com/demo/index.php?twg_album=01_Administration&twg_show=Administration+Help+Screen.gif
and
http://www.tinywebgallery.com/demo/index.php?twg_album=01_Administration&twg_show=Administration+Help+Screen.gif&twg_rot=90&twg_zs=1301827018
are the same page!
This is important to avoid duplicate content on your site. I have this now running at the demo and will check in the webmaster tools of google how this works 
.

Hi,
I have already started with TWG 1.8.5 and one of the main features is that folder.txt and foldername.txt can be edited in the front end.
I have implemented this already and the reason why this is available is that new translations are needed as well.
Additionally some small fixes are included.
So if you can help with the translation or want to use this new feature you can already use 1.8.5. But be aware that in the final a lot of more stuff will come.

Hi,
The website was refactored. It still looks the same but I removed most of the duplicate content.
I had english content under the /de part as well.
So if you have any bookmarks this are not working anymore please update them.
Best,
Michael
Hi,
if you update to TWG to 1.8.4 (actually 1.8.3 also) you have to set
$video_flash_site = “”;
in the video.php if your FLV’s are not working anymore. This is documented in the howto but before that this was not mandatory. In the next version I will make this optional again.
Best,
Michael
Hi,
I made a small update for TFU and JFU.
Some hosters add code automatically to each page – like a counter or ad’s. I have added a new parameter to the returns that prevents that added code modifies the last parameter.
Please update if you have any problems – otherwise no update is needed. The 2.13 version works fine. The new version does not have a new version number – only a new release date!
Have fun using JFU/TFU,
Michael
