Overview
Our Advanced Gallery System is a comprehensive PHP script package that allows developers and creators to host their own secure media galleries. This downloadable software product provides a complete front-end and back-end interface for displaying images, videos, and audio files without relying on third-party subscriptions.
The codebase includes built-in modules for user authentication, media collections, and automatic image optimization. You receive the unrestricted source code, allowing you to host the files independently. A detailed User Guide.html is included in the digital download to help you configure the files on your server quickly and efficiently.

Technical Requirements
- A web server like Apache or Nginx. For local testing, we suggest XAMPP.
- PHP version 5.5.0 or higher. For optimal performance and security, PHP 8.0 or newer is recommended.
- MySQL version 5.6 or newer, or MariaDB.
- A code editor for any customizations. While Notepad works, we highly recommend Notepad++, Visual Studio Code, or Atom for a better experience.
FAQs
-
How do I change the max upload file size?
You can easily adjust the maximum upload file size by editing the 'config.php' file and updating the relevant file size variables. Alternatively, these settings are also accessible through the admin panel for quick changes. -
Why are my media files not showing on the gallery page?
First, ensure you've correctly imported the advanced SQL file and that your database credentials in the 'config.php' file are accurate. Also, double-check that the media directories (for images, videos, and audio) have the necessary write permissions on your server. -
Why am I receiving a MySQL error?
MySQL errors typically point to incorrect database connection details. Please verify the MySQL connection variables in your 'config.php' file. Also, confirm that you've uploaded the correct SQL file using a tool like phpMyAdmin and that your MySQL server is running. -
How do I download the ZIP file again if I've lost it?

Can I customize the look and feel of the gallery?
Absolutely! The package includes SCSS and CSS files, allowing you to easily modify styles, colors, and layouts to match your website's branding. The commented code also makes it easier to understand and customize specific elements. -
What exactly am I buying?
A complete digital software package containing all PHP source files, SCSS stylesheets, optional modules, and a technical User Guide. -
Are future updates included with the purchase?

Is the code compatible with existing websites?
