This is the fourth BETA release of the new 5.x-2.x series. The new gallery module has some excellent new features and provides a major overhaul of the UI and the underlying code. Its quite stable but still needs testing. Please backup your database before use and report any issues to the Issues tracker.

Several issues have been reported for beta3 (see below) and are hopefully fixed in this release. Please people put this through its paces and find bugs, so that we can have a solid release candidate soon.

New feature available with the 5.x-2.x series:

  • More powerful user/role sync, including the ability to bulk import/sync. Can also import Gallery2 users into Drupal
  • Support for Google (XML) Sitemaps
  • Full support for G2.2 (including the ability to have different size images -- not just the thumbnail)
  • More sidebar control (including ability to move admin sidebar into a Drupal block)
  • Multiple image/grid blocks support
  • Improved search, with advanced search capability
  • Automatically gets the image frame options from Gallery2
  • Much easier default setting
  • Improved error handling and debugging
  • ...
