Glad I could be of any help.
Anxiously waiting for 0.1.9, lemme know when U need spanish translation.

[EhegwerParticipant @ehegwer 6 years, 8 months ago]

Looks great – just playing around with the new version with the latest buddypress 1.2.7 and wp 3.0.4

One question: in my install there are no options for the flash uploader? (at least I don’t see ’em). Hints?

[RigoniMember @rigoni 6 years, 8 months ago]

Dear sirs I translate the latest version of the file (bp-album-0.1.8.6-2010-12-18.po) for the Portuguese of Brazil. I would like to contribute but do not know how to upload to the project. Another issue rename the file as bp-album-pt-BR.mo and the file bp-album-pt-BR.po put in the folder but still does not work. Would anyone know how I can fix it?

[XevoParticipant @xevo 6 years, 8 months ago]

Guess I’ll have to start working on my translation again. ^^

[foxlyParticipant @foxly 6 years, 8 months ago]

@el_terko Thanks! we will send you a work unit through the project tracker when we’re ready to go.

Version 0.1.9 is going to be a *lot* of work …almost 30 times more text than the 0.1.8 versions …so you guys are going to be busy for a while

[foxlyParticipant @foxly 6 years, 8 months ago]

@ehegwer – Version 0.1.8.7 doesn’t have a flash uploader. That capability starts with version 0.1.9.

[foxlyParticipant @foxly 6 years, 8 months ago]

@Rigoni – Just upload it to:

$a = CarlRoett
$b = “@”
$c = “gmail.com”

$email = $a . $b . $c

Thanks!

[foxlyParticipant @foxly 6 years, 8 months ago]

@xevo – we would be very happy if you sent in an updated translation.

Thanks!

Hey there- how can I download and start testing out 0.1.9?

I went to the nightly build page but it seems it hasn’t been updated in a month and and that 0.1.8.7 is newer than any that are up there..

I really would like to test out the tagging feature as well as the flash uploader. I have a site that is very photo intensive and would love to help test out on my dev site…

please let me know!!!

Thank you,
tracy

[foxlyParticipant @foxly 6 years, 8 months ago]

@mstracylee

We only update the nightly builds when we have a functional version that non-technical users can play with without screwing-up their wordpress install. We’ll probably post another build in the next couple of weeks …we’re doing some fairly heavy editing at the moment.

You can follow all the updates we’re making to the plugin source code here: http://code.google.com/p/buddypress-media/source/list but you will need a SVN client to download directly from the repository. You can learn more about SVN here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Subversion_clients

Thanks!
