Miscellaneous Qdig Settings

Server Compatibility

$is_readable_disa = FALSE;

Set to TRUE if is_readable() causes trouble on your server.

$file_exists_disa = FALSE;

Set to TRUE if file_exists() causes trouble on your server.

$max_exec_time = 30;

Set PHP's maximum execution time in seconds. Has no effect if the server is running with Safe Mode enabled.

$compat_quote = TRUE;

Add and extra "s to exec() command on Win32. For Win98 this should be set to FALSE.

$exclude_gif = FALSE;

Exclude GIF images.

Cache settings

Remmber, HTML Header settings are only effective for stand-alone Qdig galleries, not embedded ones.

$header['meta_cache'] = FALSE;

Use a Cache-Control meta tag. For servers that cause repeated reloading of thumbs.

$header['cache_sec'] = '3600';

Number of seconds for the cache to expire.

Path Settings (Override defaults.)

The next two are the same location; as a URL and as a filesystem path.

$url_base_path = '';

Specifies the base URL path to the gallery directory (not necessarily where the Qdig script is). Examples: '/photos/' or '/~someuser/qdig/'

$fs_base_path = '';

Specifies the filesystem path to the root directory of the gallery. Ex.: '/home/someuser/public_html/qdig/' or '../qdig'

$admin['script_url'] = 'admin.php';

URL path to the Gallery Management Script. Example: '/photos/admin.php'

$chroot_dir = '';

The topmost directory of the gallery tree. Note: You may also want to add this path to the $qdig_files location (e.g. for 'images' use 'images/qdig-files/') See http://qdig.sourceforge.net/Support/ChrootDirectory

$qdig_url = '';

Self-referring URL path. Examples: '/photos/' or '/photos/qdig.php' or '/~someuser/qdig/index.php'

Et-cetera

You can cause Qdig to exclude certain directories or files from your galleries by specifying them. Add as many as you want by name, or use a Perl-compatible regular expression or just a pattern.

$excl_dirs[] = 'Private';

$excl_dirs[] = 'qdig-converted';

$excl_dirs[] = '';

$excl_dir_preg = '/^priv_/';

$excl_imgs[] = 'qdig-bg.jpg';

$excl_imgs[] = 'favicon.png';

$excl_imgs[] = '';

$excl_img_preg = '/^thumb_/';

$excl_img_pattern = '_thumb';

$excl_main = FALSE;

These three settings alter the URLs created by Qdig.

$extra_param = '';

Extra parameter(s) to include in URLs. Examples: 'incl=qdig.php&' 'a=foo&b=bar&'

$keep_params = FALSE;

Retain extra GET parameters in Qdig URLs. Allows Qdig to "share" the query string when embedded.

$anchor = '';

Include an intra-page anchor in URLs. For embedded galleries, use '#qdig' to jump down to the gallery.

Debugging Setting

$diag_messages = FALSE;

Produce diagnostic messages. This will also enable verbose PHP error reporting.
