I'm trying to make a gallery photo on website and my client need to upload these photos unto dropbox or google drive.
I've embed a gallery from google drive in my website and it works perfectly (which means I can see the photos). But, when I click on a photos, it redirects me on google drive and its not a good rendering.
I've also try this solution : pull and display images in website gallery from dropbox directory. It seems to be a good solution but unfortunatly, nothing appears on my website.
Anyone has a solution? I really need my client to manage himself is gallery photo without having to put it on FTP.
Thanks
Take a look at the Google Drive SDK and API, which allows you to get the list of files in a Drive folder and URLs that can be used to view the image directly. Depending on your needs, you can turn this into a gallery, use a lightbox to display the image, or whatever you specifically need.
You may also want to take a look at using Drive to publish website content. You may still need to write some code to create the gallery portion, but this provides an easy public place to store and manage the uploaded images.

I have a lot of pictures on my homepage. Of course, this also requires a lot of disk space. Now I got the glorious idea that I don't store the images on the website, but on an external source (like Dropbox or Google Drive). There I can then also manage my own folder structure and do not have to use this stupid structure of Wordpress.
So the idea is that I can display images on my wordpress page, that are stored on an external source. Is this possible and how?
Actually you can achieve that but with a little bit different approach. Since you can't get public links to the images in your Dropbox or Google Drive, you might wanna try AWS S3 or Google Cloud Storage instead.
I want to use Google Cloud Storage (GCS) to share my videos on my WordPress LMS, for that, I am using WP-Stateless which during setup which requires to provide public access to my GCS bucket.
Now my issue is that I want my users to be able to view the media files but not be able to download them.
Is there any way to do that?
There is no way to prevent users from downloading images from your website. In fact when users view your images in a browser, they are downloaded to your browser cache. You can take some measures like:
Prevent right click
Disable hotlinking
Add a watermark
Add a copyright notice etc etc...
But realistically there is not much you can do. Everything you do to protect your images can be bypassed. You could also use a plugin to convert your images to webp format. Most people do not like downloading webp. They prefer jpg and png :)
Does somebody know if there is a plugin for WordPress that can integrate the Box.com cloud service into a page/post? I am looking for a way to show my files from Box.com directly on a page in a sort of file browser.
I know that there are some plugins around that can do it for Dropbox or Google Drive. But I don't want to switch, so it would be nice if I can use my Box.com account.
Has somebody found a similar plugin for Box.com?
Have you looked at leveraging Box Embed or the Box File Picker?
Either of these will give you a small code snippet to embed Box into your site.
I am having a website developed with ASP.Net(4.0). I am having Jpeg images maintained in a Folder. I would like to restrict the users from directly accessing the images through url access(Like: "http://www.example.com/images/latest/a123g.jpg"). But, I am showing these images in lightbox from a particular page.
In addition, I would like to restrict the particular folder images from displaying in Google Image search. Kindly Guide me.
Thanks in advance!

For restricting users from directly accessing your images through url, you will need to use hidden segments in your web.config file, as stated in this answer.
I have a Google Drive that I'm allowing various other community users to upload files to. We have multiple folders with each folder containing a number of photo's of whatever event that folder represents. I'm after a Wordpress plugin that scans a selected top-level folder on Google Drive and dynamically creates the gallery categories and images from the folder contents.
I'm aiming to have this work so that if a user creates a new folder and dumps some photos in it, a new gallery category will appear as if by magic on my Wordpress site filled with the photos the user put in the folder.
Does anyone know of anything like this?
Maybe try the Google Drive plugin for WordPress http://codecanyon.net/item/useyourdrive-google-drive-plugin-for-wordpress/6219776. It does not reupload the Google Drive contents to your server – instead, the content is loaded every time a user accesses the site. I am using it now and it works well concerning the functions, yet is sometimes kind of slow.
