Installation

• Download and unzip the Cruiser release package.
• Open the file cruiser_config.php located in the config directory
• Edit the following lines:

[code lang=”php”]
// edit this file to reflect your installation setup

$flickr_api = ”; // your flickr api

$nsid = ”; // your flickr user id

$owner = ”; // your flickr username

$cache_dir = ”; // cache directory

$install_dir = ”; // directory of the cruiser gallery script. include trailing /

$cru_title = ‘Cruiser’; // title of photo gallery

$cru_desc = ‘photo gallery’; // description under title

$feature_id = ”; // flickr photo id for featured photo on home page

// Database settings

$dbhost = “localhost”;

$dbuser = “db_user_name”;

$dbpass = “db_user_pass”;

$dbname = “db_name”;
[/code]

Now Upload the Cruiser directory to your website, and visit your gallery!
The basic gallery should be up and running. To use the search by name function you will need to
run the install.php script located in the Cruiser directory by visiting;

http://www.yoururl.com/pathtocruiser/install.php

You should see a message saying that the database tables have been installed. If you do not
see this message check to make sure your database settings in cruiser_config.php
are correct.

If you successfully installed the database tables you NEED to DELETE
the install.php file from your installation! This script is setup to delete any existing tables in the database before creating them, so if you do not delete this script, someone could potentially overwrite your tables.

I have yet to include any type of authorization into the admin section of Cruiser, so for the time being I would rename the admin directory to something random, that you can remember. Basically anyone that finds this directory will be able to add names and photo relationships, and that is it. If you wish to give people this link so they can add their own names to photos then go ahead. The edit name, and delete name functions do not work yet.

Administration:

Go to the Cruiser Gallery Administration by pointing your browser to the admin directory or your renamed admin directory. You will see a login form, just click submit as this form won’t do anything yet. Now that you are in the admin section click on “Name Admin” to add names and add names to photos.

Thats it! This has taken me a crazy amount of time, because I am not an expert when it comes to this stuff so feel free to donate and help a brother out!
