 * Thank you very much for having stepped in vpiwigo shoes and made this plugin 
   usable again.
    Before you did, I had made a few improvements on my own copy, 
   and had to update the new version in order no to loose the features I’ve added.
 * Would you consider adding the following features to the plugin:
 * 1. In PiwigoPress_widget.php:
    – put the picture name in the `alt` tag of each
   picture, so it doesn’t remain blank – suppress the `target=_blank` (or make it
   optional) for each picture; it is not very appropriate when the blog and the 
   gallery are parts of the same website and, unless I’m mistaken, it is now generally
   considered as ‘bad practice’ not to let the choice of another tab/window to the
   visitor.
 * 2. In piwigopress.php:
    – make it possible to display the category name
 * I also made another modification in order to be able to square-crop non-thumbnail
   pictures, but I don’t think this could be considered as a general purpose feature.
 * If you’re interested in seeing the resulting customization, you can have a look
   at the website+gallery I’ve set up for a customer: [http://michel-rouge-photographe.com/](http://michel-rouge-photographe.com/)

 * Hi Tosca,
 * thanks for your suggestion. I think that should be easy. The quickest way is 
   if you send me a pull request on github ( [https://github.com/norbusan/piwigopress](https://github.com/norbusan/piwigopress))
   or a diff.
 * Thanks

 * Thank you for your answer.
    But I have no idea what a “pull request” is. And 
   a “diff” … do you mean something like “change this at line number x” ?

 * Hi Tosca,
 * Ok, no problem. Can you send me the code with *your* changes in there, and I 
   will compare it with what I have!
 * Per email to [norbert@preining.info](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/features-request-9/norbert@preining.info?output_format=md)

 * Another future request
    -possibility to put a code before and after photo’s in
   the widgets (e.g.
    -  and at the end
 * ). This way it’s more easy to make rows of photos or a slider using Jquery.

 * Thanx I will give this a try later this week. What is the best option to do this?
   Replace files? Re-install?

 * Hi Jeroen,
 * well, you could get the following three file: [PiwigoPress_options.php](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/norbusan/piwigopress/widget-pre-post-code/PiwigoPress_options.php)
   [PiwigoPress_widget.php](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/norbusan/piwigopress/widget-pre-post-code/PiwigoPress_widget.php)
   [piwigopress.php](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/norbusan/piwigopress/widget-pre-post-code/piwigopress.php)
   by downloading them from the links, and put them into your piwigopress folder.
 * But BEFORE doing this make a backup of the three original files to be able to
   go back in case of problems!!
 * Hope that helps
 * (BTW, your first post seems to have messed up the forum here, no idea why!)
 * Thanks for testing

 * I think with 2.27 all the requests have been honored, besides very local adaptions(
   square thumbs).
 * I’m closing this thread, please open another one or an issue on github if there
   are further feature requests.
 * Thanks
