Lets not go off the enlightenment pun too much now.

Well, so far, the ZenPhoto/Wordpress bridge seems to be working. I just installed ZenWordpress (formerly known as ZenPress before the branding issue) and it seems to be finally working. Initially, I had some issues with the image not showing up and me getting a 500 internal service error but I seem to have fixed that with some tweaking with the .htaccess file. Hopefully, after some more tweaking, I can finally completely do away with Gallery2 and use ZenPhoto to its potential.

Speaking of .htaccess, I am planning to also do away with ugly URL’s with those ?this=that&whatnots with the .htaccess/mod_rewrite stuffs with this blog. That will come soon. I will need to make some adjustments to Haiku.legacy first. Anyway, stay tuned for more.

Were you ever able to get rid of the ugly URLs? I’m trying to run wordpress + zenphoto, but haven’t been able to get the nice URLs on ZenPhoto yet, just on Wordpress. I tried using 2 different .htaccess files (one in the wp directory and one in the zp directory) and also tried just one .htaccess file in the wp directory (the zp directory is a subdirectory of the wp one). My zenphoto installation is in http://dcruzinphotography.com/gallery, and I tried editing the .htaccess file in the http://dcruzinphotography.com and set RewriteBase /gallery, but that doesn’t seem to work. If you have any tips or have gotten it to work, I would love to know. Thanks!

Oh.. nevermind. I just figured out my problem. I had 2 .htaccess files and I just needed one. Feel free to delete these comments if you want.
