After promising myself for for the last year or so that i’d do it, It’s finally here.
WPPA (WP Photo Album) is a simple to use, and fully customizable plugin for managing photo albums within a WordPress powered site or blog. Version 1.0 of has been rewritten from scratch, sharing only the name with previous versions.
WPPA Features easy album and photo management, on-the-fly thumbnail resizing, a theme system similar to the WordPress theme system, and much more.
So, why don’t you check it out?

Good job Joe. It looks really good. I’m glad that I was able to help you out with testing and first release features.
For your readers who would like to see a functioning demo, they can check out my photo gallery page.
This plugin is now one of my favorites. I’ve been wanting a self contained photo solution for WordPress now for close to 2 years.
You are going to make a lot of people happy with this release. Congrats!
This looks great, simple and functional.
If I ever get traveling around (hopefully soon), I’ll fill my camera with pictures and use your plugin.
I saw pictures you took from italy, why didn’t you came across slovenia and pay me a visit? :p
Thanks for a great plugin.

Hey,
I got the wppa to work just fine but I’m having an issue with the comments.
Is there a way one can have different “comment sections” for every picture. Or at least every album? The comments now are everywhere inside the wppa site the same.
Still: Great work. This is the one album plugin I was looking for. Thanks!

Hi… your plugin it’s great… but i have a problem. I can’t upload JPG, only GIF. When I try to upload JPG I have 404 page error.
Any idea?

Wow… Within 5 minutes (maybe less) this photoalbum was setup. One issue that I came across is the following:
When the album is empty there is a foreach call barfing and a warning is shown at wppa_theme.php line 27. This is because the wppa_get_thumbs() function returns a ‘null’ value. I changed this function to return an empty array when the get_results function returns null.
I’ve only put up one photo in my album but I just had to comment because I’m sooooo happy that you’ve created this awesome plugin. I’ve been searching for one that is simple into integrate with a nice layout and simple linking system.
Thank you thank you sooo much. I would’ve donated but I dont have a credit card…
Tomorrow after work I’ll be putting heaps of my artwork and photos up
I love the plugin, but I am having difficulty changing the gallery layout. I have checked out the stylesheet but can’t figure out how to change the location of the images. Can you give me a hint?
Thanks so much.
