ZenLatest is a plugin for Wordpress that can show the latest additions to a ZenPhoto installation. The plugin has been tested to work with Wordpress 2.5

== Description ==

The current version supports the following customizable parameters :

- Image count (default 10).
- Image and thumbnail paths.
- Customizable thumbnail sizes.
- Database connections. 
- Database tables.
- Option to display the images as links to the full photo in ZenPhoto.

As of version 1.2.0 the paramters above are customizable through the options menu. Other customizations are only possible by editing the zenlatest.php file.

The plugin creates thumbnails using GD, and stores them in plugins/zenlatest/cache. This directory should only contain the thumbnails that should be displayed on the webpage.

When loading the plugin, the directory is examined and if the directory contains more files than specified on the image count, the directory is cleaned (all files removed), and the thumbnails are regenerated.

The plugin also examines all the images, and compares the image size to the specified thumbnail size parameters. Should width or height not match any of the image dimensions, the file is regenerated using the current parameters.

The plugin is implemented as a widget and has been tested on Wordpress 2.3.3 and ZenPhoto 1.1.3 + 1.1.5 . but other version might work.

The plugin has support for WordPress and ZenPhoto on different databases og even different servers. If your WordPress and Zenphoto installations are on the same database and use an identical user, just fill in the same information for both database connections.
