VB image Hosting

[SVTOA]

Make the navbar and Postbit statements conditional upon being logged in. Then they won't see them unless they are a member who is logged in.

As for not seeing the postbit code, it's just popup code so place in the same place as your search and quicklinks or look for NAVABAR POPUPS or something similar.

[Merriweather]

Make the navbar and Postbit statements conditional upon being logged in. Then they won't see them unless they are a member who is logged in.It's nice in theory, but if someone knows the direct link to the page, they can still see the images. I want that page to be blocked from certain usergroups, including logged in ones. Hiding the postbit doesn't solve my problem, exactly. :)

[ChipW]

I didn't read through all the post to see if this was around.... So I created my own little module for use in VBadvanced.

I have a highly modified $navbar template and did this out of nessessity... So, I'll share with everyone else...

This is a hack that is meant for use with VBadvanced.

It can be found here (http://www.vbadvanced.com/forum/showthread.php?p=104377#post104377)

[Merriweather]

If a member is deleted from the site, will their images be deleted as well?

[ChipW]

to test that, create a fake user.... upload a couple images then delete that user....

Bug:

At normal Editor and Quickreplyeditor everything is ok.

But at PM Editor i have only the Option for Quickuploading and the Point of : Open Gallery is only [] .....

s. Screenshot where the Mousecursor stands ...

Hello,

someone fixed this?

[Merriweather]

Yes, read back a few threads as I posted a fix.

[Spank]

I managed to get rid of all of the errors except one by putting in the usual path to the forums, instead of the public_html path.

I still get this error:

Warning: imagejpeg() [function.imagejpeg]: Unable to open 'http://www.misc-world.com/endeavour/imagehosting/145c4c9e6dc492.jpg' for writing in /includes/vbimghost_include.php on line 209
What's causing this?

[Tom_S]

Is anyone having an issue after clicking on "Upload and Image" that their host is shutting off their site because of a CPU Quota Exceed Error? It seems when I do click upload an image it just sits there as if it can't find it and then my host is shutting our account off saying we are exceeding our quota. I was having no problems with this mod until the other day but I have been having a huge amount of issues with my host at bluehost.com. Anyone having these or similar issues? I need to know what direction to go in here. Fix something with the mod or yell at my host.

[Merriweather]

I haven't had such issues, Tom. If you didn't make any changes to the mod or added other mods and this just started happening, I'd contact the host.

[Tom_S]

I did contact them and they are saying this is the issue:
Fri Feb 9 17:01:38 2007: used 30.03 seconds of cpu time for HTTP Request: mywebsite.com : GET /member/vbimghost.php?do=upload

At the exact time this happened the server I am on the load was at 10.09 (4 cpus). I am ready to move from bluehost. I have been with them since they started but they are all about the money now and not the client. ACK!

You are correct in assuming I did nothing to the mod. It has been running fine until this.

Thanks..I appreciate the confirmation.

Tom

[fly]

30 seconds of CPU time seems like a lot. Do you have a slow upload and they are maybe counting the whole time the connection is open?

[Tom_S]

I wan't uploading anything. I only clicked the upload link to give me the page to upload a file. This is the time it was taking just to open the upload page which it never did. The issue was on their side. It is shared hosting. We are forever now running into other accounts zapping the server such as I pointed out that at the time I was attempting this our server load was at 10.09 (4 cpus) which nothing will work for anyone when this is doing this.

They however wish to blame it on you if you contact them and tell you to modify your scripts to run the minimum load possible for the server. As it stands the box we are on has 840 shared accounts and they say accumulating 500 plus per day.

I really was hoping it was an issue that was a simple fix others were having but I knew it was my host and not the mod.

[blind-eddie]

TOM, I too rent from bluehost & have been having major problems with them,....but this is going
off topic. There is a thread regarding host problems here on vb.org. I have a dedicated ip, I also get the most you can get from bluehost, I haven't yet had the problem you are having with them about this particular mod. Feel free to pm me or visit my site to share our troubles about bluehost.

[Tom_S]

Bless you Brother! I knew I wasn't going crazy! :D

I will PM you

[Merriweather]

Ranma2k ~ Since the images are not renamed when uploading, what happens if a user uploads two pictures with the same name, or if two users upload pictures with the same name? Is this something you've taken into account?

[Tom_S]

Here is something to take into account. First. I am paying for professional webhosting. Second, when you click this link: http://myhost.com/forum/vbimghost.php?do=upload
This error occurs. No matter if there is one member or twenty members. How is it you explain that?

[Merriweather]

Sorry, Tom, when I wrote my post above yours, I put your name on it, but I mean to ask the mod author.

[Tom_S]

Sorry Merriweather...I have been so frustarated I seen something that just wasn't there.

[Spank]

What are your permissions on the http://www.misc-world.com/endeavour/imagehosting/ folder?

lol I hadn't set it to writable by all users. Thanks for that =D

[fly]

Ranma2k ~ Since the images are not renamed when uploading, what happens if a user uploads two pictures with the same name, or if two users upload pictures with the same name? Is this something you've taken into account?

They are renamed. :confused:

[Merriweather]

They don't appear to be... if I user uploads a file called mydog.jpg, it's still mydog.jpb on the server...

ETA ~ I see what you are saying now. The file name itself is changed on the server to a unique identifier, but it shows the original file name in the person's gallery -- excellent! :)

[Merriweather]

Another question/request... right now, a user without vB image hosting permissions sees "no images" when they click to view their images, and if possible, it would be nice for that to give a message saying they don't have access to the feature. Same with the [Open] and [Quick Upload] buttons on the posting screen -- it would be great if they just didn't show for someone without permission, or told them they don't have access when they clicked either one. :)

I just hid all that stuff for guests, cause all my members have access. You can wrap a conditional around it to hide it, if you know how to do that...

[Merriweather]

I was able to make it not display any of the photo pages for those without access to upload by using conditionals. It would be nice to have it as a built-in feature of the mod, though (for future versions/users). The one thing I can't do yet is hide the [Open] and [Quick Upload] for those without permissions -- have you been able to do that?

[Pipe Hitter]

In the instructions it states to find the following:

<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="faq.php$session[sessionurl_q]" accesskey="5">$vbphrase[faq]</a></td

and

<!-- PAGENAV POPUP -->


I'm going into Navigation / Breadcrumb Templates and going to navbar and can't find any of that text. Am I going to the wrong navbar (is there more than 1?)


I have found the same thing. I had to revert my navbar template to the default because of my board logging members off continuously. So my template is the 3.6.4 default template and I can not find the <!-- PAGENAV POPUP --> code.

[Tom_S]

Do you see this in your navabar:
<!-- / NAVBAR POPUP MENUS -->
It is right under it.

Wrapping the template edit in 'editor_smiliebox' with a conditional doesn't work?

[111]

ok error: i manage to upload the images by removing the [bburl] tags that were in the code that we need to put before popup menus...

BUT: when i upload pic: my forum url gets posted twice:

example: http://www.noviforum.net/www.noviforum.net/vbimghost.php?do=displayimg&imgid=3


so i just get red x instead of image showing

[Merriweather]

I hadn't thought of that :rolleyes: but I am sure you are right!!! Will do.... and thank you. :)

[NathanMc]

I can't seem to get my watermark to work, all I tried to use was the text one, and nothing shows up.

also, is there a way I could easily allow the users to add a brief 'name' or 'description' of the image they are uploading? Scrictly for SEO purposes, and possibly a search feature..to search for a certain pic by 'tag' lines. Just some suggestions.

Well this issue still exists and it seems to only be with IE. Firefox has nadda going on as far as this. I don't understand it at all since no one else has had this happen. I am wondering if our host has done something in the background to impede this process to cause this?

[blind-eddie]

No problems yet Tom.......I bet I have 10,000 images on my server out of 12 sites.

vBulletin should not be used on shared hosting. The software and some added mods and hacks will kill your alotted cpu cycles. sometimes this hack will eat up cpu time.

been there. now have my site on a high CPU user tier, and not to many problems.

[Tom_S]

Not many problems? If you went to a dedicated server and have any problems then I see a HUGE issue. Shared hosting has nothing to do with what is going on if they have their hardware setup effectively. Thanks for the feedback though.

[wtrk]

can you turn on and off the html/bbcode links ?

[Tom_S]

If you are asking me on mine then no. That option isn't in this mod.

[Merriweather]

can you turn on and off the html/bbcode links ?
I edited the template to remove the HTML ones, as my users can't link outside my forums and don't need it. You could do the same if you just want to completely remove them.

I would love to see the author implement a switch that would only show the BBCode link to the owner of the photo. :)

[rezapci]

Step 4 ( template modification ):

* Edit the Navbar template and do the following:
Find :

Where do I find this? :confused: :o

Thanks

[blind-eddie]

admincp/styles & templates/ search in templates, chose default template to search in type in navbar in text box, click find/search....scroll down a bit, you will see navbar. double click it.
you will then copy & paste the info you need to find in the find box at the bottom...click find....now follow readme.....

[Gweedo]

Thanks, I was looking for it through my FTP (I'm still in phpbb2 mode). It is installed and works, but I am getting some error messages.

When I add am image it throws up a bunch of error messages (Too quickly to copy and paste :o ) , but the upload still works. Any ideas on that?

Also, I had a few images that will not delete because I pulled them from the directory through FTP. So now they are stuck in my dbase with no image. Any idea how to pull them? Using delete does not work :mad:

Thanks,
Matt

I have a new error now. I changed the watermark from text to image and now I get this:

The watermark image is in the vbimagehost folder where the uploaded images are stored.

If I turn off the watermark I get no errors at all, so this is a problem related to the watermark

Thanks,
Matt

[Gweedo]

Alright, I see what you were saying. thanks. That part is fixed.

I am down to one error now. The image uploads, but no watermark and this one error:
Warning: getimagesize(/home/hookedon/public_html/forums/imagehosting/watermark.jpg) [function.getimagesize]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /includes/vbimghost_include.php on line 221

Thanks!
Matt

[Gweedo]

God help me...

I fixed the error, I had to remove the "Forums" from the path. No errors now!

But.... The watermark is still not working :(

The text watermark works, but it is small and the font blows. The image watermark just doesn't work at all. I have tried .jpg and .png on .jpg images. Any tips or tricks would be appreciated!

[DannyITR]

This is an awesome hack. The hack would be even better with a few organizational options however. Right now, its got all the functionality it needs for the individual however if the community wants to view photos I find it to be limiting.

How hard would it be to have the option of categorizing the photos when a user chooses to view all member images? In the admincp I'd like to be able to set a category and have it be a mandatory field to fill out (dropdown capable) when a user uploads a photo. Then when a member wants to view all images, they can order them by category.

Thoughts? BTW I hate Photopost with a passion. This hack puts it to shame in terms of ease of use.

[Merriweather]

I found a glitch -- when I posted an announcement in my forums, the postbit that shows how many images I have was broken (it just showed empty parenthesis instead of the number of photos with the link). How can I fix it?

[Gweedo]

I'm having an issue with watermarks. I have set the directory to "777" and the text watermark works just fine.

However, the "image" watermark does not work.
Permissions set to 777
Image in .jpg format is in folder
CP is set to image and file name matches
No error messages are displayed
Image uploads, but no watermark
Text watermark works fine


Any idea about what my problem may be?

Thanks!

[John1uk]

Installed.....But i have a problem... how do i set user permissions, as it won't let me upload pics as i don't have permission...

Thanx

[blind-eddie]

admincp/vbimagehost...on the left, make sure its on & set your settings, also..
admincp/usergroup/usergroupmanager....Go through each usergroup, scroll down, you will see, vbimagehost, set settings on each usergroup...

[John1uk]

u must replace the home\user with your real username that u access the web then the watermark will work (i had the same problem)

[digital3]

When I try uploading an image I simply get a blank page. The install was 100% perfect and the upload directory was CHMOD 777. I will try this mod later once it is bug free.

[redwinger]

I get this message when uploading. Uploaded file is not an image
Now it is a image and is within the size ranges. Also I set my thumbnails down and they are still the same size? Where do i rebuild the thumbnails?

[oatsy]

Had a 3.6.4 forum hacked (as in Turkish hackers, not as in a deliberate VB mod) a couple of days ago with a hack called cmdhack, and there are some signs that it came in through a previous version of Image Hosting - version 1.3.1. I was looking here to see what the most current version is. I see 1.3.1 is outdated but I'm not sure if the recent updates change anything about security (if indeed Image Hosting was the way they got in.

The reason I think Image Hosting may have been the route in is because there were 3 new files appeared in the 'imagehosting' directory at about the time the site was hacked. There should only be image files and an index.html (with nothing in it) in there, but we had a new index file plus 2 php files. Couldn't open any of them by ftp for editing - access denied. We were able to delete the folder and replace it with a backup and the forums are up and running again now once we fixed the problem in the db - see below.

I'm still puzzled about how those files got there though. The Image Hosting feature is set to a) only accept jpg, gif, png, and bmp files. I've tried txt files etc and it won't accept them. b) only trusted members of the forum are enabled on the Image Hosting system - general public don't have permissions. All forums have HTML disabled.

I've disabled the Image Hosting hack from all users for now. I'd appreciate any thoughts on how this might have happened. Can a script be disguised as an image file? Could one of the trusted members have innocently uploaded what he thought was a clean image file but was actually the hacker's script?

I'd like to keep Image Hosting on the site because it's a terrific hack.

What happens with this cmdhack is that as soon as the forums try to load you get redirected straight to a page on the hackers site ('Turkish Hackers blah blah' rubbish).

If you do get caught with it, it's easy to get rid off as long as you have access to phpmyadmin:

Long story short ... the hack changed a couple of fields in the top level publicly accessible forum (the Category in other words). The Title field text was replaced with a refresh command and the description field had the URL details to the hackers page. As soon as the forums load the refresh/redirect command kicks you to the hackers URL after a second or two.

No new pages were added to the site - the 'You've been hacked' page was on the hackers remote site. Easy enough to fix by going into phpmyadmin, listing the 'forum' table and look for the forum that has the wrong info in it. Replace the hackers text with the correct text and off you go. You can't edit it in the admin cp because as soon as you try to list the forums in Forum Manager the redirect kicks in again.

Thanks

[oatsy]

Sorry, for some reason I was thinking there'd be a change log here to show reasons for updating from 1.3.1 to 1.4.1 or this current version. Just realised 1.3.1 was for VB 3.5 and the changelog is in there ok.

Looks as though one of the mods was indeed to prevent non-image files being uploaded. I'd be grateful if someone could confirm this could well have been my problem but that this current version is safe?

Thanks

^You people (or your host) are doing something wrong. It isn't the hack...

Wow. I wonder how files are checked before being uploaded. This is NOT good.

[digital3]

The funny part is that hackers don't even have to check to see who has what mods installed. LOL They just come here, look in these threads and then hammer us :).

[Merriweather]

But I'm unsure about installing this - maybe the developer can make a statement in regards to what oatsy said? That'd make my decision easier.The developer has not posted since early December 2006 and has ignored a PM I sent for support on this mod. My guess is that it is no longer supported.

Without knowing what file the hackers used and how the files got there, I think it's unfair to assume it was the cause of this mod, though I also respect the need for clarification on the mod's security.

I have tested my personal installation of this mod and am not able to upload a .php, .html or .htaccess file.

My guess is that the hackers hit oatsey some other way, and that the folder holding oatsey's hosted images has been CHMODED to 777 (all permissions to all groups) which in itself is a security risk. You're better off using 755. On a shared server, nothing should ever be world-writable with mode 666 or 777. Doing so can potentially allows other users of the server to change your files. A hacker may have uploaded a bona-fide image file through the mod and then hacked the file through the server, which is not a problem with the mod itself.

Of course, I have no proof of this, but in my experience, you cannot use this mod to upload anything other than images.

QUITE nice. Thank you VERY much for such an excellet hack.

This has made my forums very happy.

[OffRoadManiac]

will this work with 3.6.5?

[KiraLove]

OffRoadManiac I don't know but I am going to try. It looks great, I just hope it doesn't open a security hole and let hackers in like the one person said. :-/

[katilkuzu]

yes it is working on my 3.6.5

[imported_killer]

how i can apply it to my custome style .. plz
btw : it's work fine with default style ..

[Merriweather]

Know that if you delete a member, you then have a bunch of photos assigned to "Guest" that show on the member photo page but can't be accessed. You have to go in the AdminCP and manually delete them. Since there's no username associated with them, you have to look at AL photos and just find them, it's a real pain. It's be great if there was some maintenance utility to remove all images not associated with a user or something. :)

Hey i installed this but its not watermarking the images when it has a . in the text

Also when i delete the images from the image host it doesnt delete them from the ftp??

When I upload a png the background turns black. It's done this to me before and I thought that I just needed to redo the render I've redone it 4 times and it still does the black background. The render went perfectly into the photopost gallery but yet still gave me problems when I tried to use imagehost.

Is there a fix for this bug?

Thank you.

I would say that its pretty much impossible that an upload script is adjusting the colors of your image.

[aacircle]

If you use imagehost, would you be able to confirm if you have this same problem by uploading a .png file?

Thanks.

Thanks for the hack.. its very nice

[BaconDelight]

If you use imagehost, would you be able to confirm if you have this same problem by uploading a .png file?

Thanks.I would guess that your image has a transparent background and the black you're seeing is the page background, not an image background.

You can confirm this by right clicking the image after it's been uploaded, selecting "copy image location" and pasting that into the address bar. Is the background still black?

[Ranma2k]

Hi everyone .
I'm sorry i was away lately but i really had big issues in real life concerning work/ financial things

now with everything is back to normal I'm going to continue working on it ..
i have setup a test env for the software and currently I'm working on having all the issues resolved

So in order to set the goal for the new ver ( 2.0) it should have :

1- Multiple storing system ( Local host / remote host ) can only use one !
2- Add-on En/Disabling system
3- Comment/rating system
4- Personal Folders ( ability for each user to create folders )
5- fixing the issues with the current versions.

If anyone have any addition to this list please Write it in a well documented way including the reason and they way he want it . so it would be easy for all of us to understand.

Thanks all

Good to have you back Ranma2k! Our members really love your hack very much. Thanks a million!

Nice Hack that Kicks Ass!

This is exactly what we were looking for as our forum members aren't to hip to the computing scene. We like making it nice and easy for the old folks to be able to post pics on our forum. ;)

Had a little trouble at first because I entered the wrong path to our forums. Here is a little tool (attached) for finding out what your forum path is. Just load it up to your forum folder via FTP and access the file through your web browser. The path to your forum will be printed out on the screen and then you just copy and paste. I found this tool at A Small Orange (www.asmallorange.com).

Thanks again for the fine hack :D

Is there anyway to make it so that administrators or super mods don't have limitations on their upload count? We use this feature to upload tutorial images so the above class of users can really stack up image counts. As it sits now we have to raise the bar for all users every time we hit the limits for individual users which isn't exactly what we had in mind.

Ok I downgraded my php and now everything is working fine.

It seems the latest php version is still bugged as it was causing other strange problems.

[treader]

Love this hack, works great, and no errors, for the most part.

It works great for me, and most of my users. However for some reason, some users cannot see the images when they are posted on the forum. I know that this is not a browser setting, because when they log in with a different account they see the images fine.

One of my Admins for example, is having this problem. He cannot see the images in a post, if he edits the post(with out making any changes) then they show up fine:confused: I don't think it has anything to do with the user group settings either, as we are in the same user group, and I don't have any problems :confused:

Am I the only one who has run into this? Does anyone have a clue what might cause this?

Other than that this hack is great, and I love it. Thanks :D

[ZomgStuff]

Is this stored in database or as a file system on the FTP?

[Pcparts]

I edited the template to remove the HTML ones, as my users can't link outside my forums and don't need it. You could do the same if you just want to completely remove them.

I would love to see the author implement a switch that would only show the BBCode link to the owner of the photo. :)
I am also interested in doing that. Can you plese tell us how did that?

curently it store it on the file system of the curent host

Hey Ranma2k,

Thanks for rekindling the project towards the next release. I have a few requests for the next version

1. Ability to add recent 5 "public" pictures anywhere on the index page
2. Recent 5 images when viewing a members profile completely breaks page layout, perhaps have an admin option to change that number or resize the images to fit on the page ?
3. Perhaps even turn it slightly into a "gallery" so clicking on view users images shows thumbnails of their recent public photos ?
4. Comments for images ?

These are few I had in mind, will be happy to add to the list if / when time permits you to take more into consideration.

[TheMilkCarton]

I was surprised that the original hack doesn't have a code box for "Image Thumbnail". When the image you upload is larger than the "Thumbnail Width" or "Thumbnail Height" you have set in the options, it automatically creates a smaller image named "thum_whatever.jpg"

So I edited the appropriate templates to add <tr>
<td class="alt1">Thumbnail IMG</td>
<td class="alt2"><input type="text" value="$vbimghost[thumbpath]"></td>
</tr>I thought this was a nice "hidden feature" that really should be implemented in the actual hack. :)

Do note: If the uploaded image is smaller than the Thumbnail dimensions, it just shows the same URL that is in the regular IMG code boxes, which is about all it can do. :)

I find this handy for news articles and such, and that way I don't have to bother opening up Photoshop to resize the image. Plus, this way I still have the large original image available for other uses.

Great hack, btw! Any chance of adding a "Title" option below each upload box like Photobucket? I don't like having to rename my JPEGs...

Another huge bonus would be putting things in different albums.. My solution for now is creating a user named "Art" or something and only giving it access to VB Image Host (This is something only a few people have access to, so the "View all users images" turns into a list of "Albums" so to speak)

[deezelpope]

Ooooh...I like that! May I be daft and ask which the 'appropriate template' is? I'm still a noob at this...:rolleyes: :o

[Karline]

Thank you from france :up:

[Distance]

How about where it shows you the img code, html code and hotlink code.

Why not have direct link aswel?

Also abit like on photobucket when you upload an image and you click on the box it auto copies the link to the clipboard and popups up copied.

Check it out, its cool :)

1. Can't you do that already? Just put the code on the index page?
2. I changed it to 3 instead of 5...works swimmingly!

4. Agreed...that'd be real nice.

But maybe making a NEW mod.. which has all the suggested features :)

No the directory path to your forum ..
the reason it won't work with you since it will look for the directory /home/user/public_html/forum which doesn't exists it will add the value in the DB but no file and it will appear as black ( yes it's a bug it shouldn't add it in the DB )

You must set the path correctly if you need help let me know via PM

Yes I understand it's using the thumbnails. I'd like to change that to where it just shows the pic without going to the preview page. I understand I can just delete the url to link to the preview page and the thum_ reference in the bbcode and achieve this but I would prefer to post it directly without having to manipulate it. Is it possible to change this and if so, where should I change it?

if you want to do that
go to the template vbimghost_popupload_pre
find

//just thumb
result = 'https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/ ('+ dispath + ')';
<if condition="!$vbimghost[thumbsize]">
result_html = "<a href='" + dispath+ "' target='_blank'><img src='" + thumbp + "' border='0'></a>";
<else />
result_html = "<a href='" + dispath+ "' target='_blank'><img src='" + thumbp + "' width ='" + thumbsize + "' border='0'></a>";
</if>


and replace it with



//just thumb
result = 'https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/';
result_html = "<img src='" + thumbp + "' border='0'>";




also find


<body onload="sendLink('$vbimghost[thumbpath]','$vbimghost[dispath]','$vbimghost[thumbsize]');">


and replace it with


<body onload="sendLink('$vbimghost[path]','$vbimghost[dispath]','$vbimghost[thumbsize]');">




that should do it for you

haha, well that almost got it.. :)

It worked for the "quick upload" pics but the "open" pics didn't display anything when clicked in the editor, it didn't act like it was doing anything at all. So I save the test post and I had ten of the same pics.. The click was working, just nothing to tell you it had worked. Also the "open" pics were still thumbnails.

When you use the "open" and click on the thumb nail it is now showing up full size, thank you. However it's still being linked back to my image host section. I would like just the [img] code without the [url] code. Is that possible?

Ranma2K, since you are in the answers, no clue for the way to hide the BB / html codes in the display of the image for other members than the owner of the image (and admin/mod)?

[Ranma2k]

Didn't get what you mean ..

did you mean that to hid the bbocde/information from all members except the admin/owner ?

[cajunboy2208]

I have a a modified skin. And I have to make an image to place on the nav bar. So what code will I put in for it to get the drop down menu with all of the links for the image?

[cajunboy2208]

Nm I got it

[whaase]

Nevermind, I found this one..

Thanks again. :)


What was it :) I'm trying the same thing

[Evolution06]

After I upload a image it takes me to white page with this error. I look in the cpanel and the image was uploaded fine into the imagehost folder.

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: imagecreatefromgif() in /home/huntcha/public_html/forums/includes/vbimghost_include.php on line 42

I changed path to forums and chmodded 777 on the imagehost folder. what else do I need to do?

This is fresh install also.

[Tulsa]

What was it :) I'm trying the same thing


In the vbimghost_imgbits_popmain template...

Change:

result = '[ url='+ dispath + ']https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/[/url ]';

To:

result = 'https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/';

omit the space at the beginning of the url tag and at the end of the close url tag. I had to put those in to get them to show even with the code tags wrapped around them.

[Ascor]

Installed, i like it because it's simple and this make the best ... member galery after removing all the share link from template ^^
Many many thank's i was waiting for something so easy to use :)
If i can suggest, i just miss a option that allow member to restrict the view of here album only for people in there buddy list..
If someone think's it's possible with the use of conditional, show me te way please :)
Click install and Motm !

[Evolution06]

I found out what my error was it was the thumbnails I turned it off and it worked but whats the Thumbnail Prefix suppose to set as? It's default thum_ I am not sure what to set it as.

[renderit]

Help needed.

When I installed it looked as though everything went well, but any access of the pull down produces a screen that says No image hosted It is in a View my images bar whether I ask for all images, my images or upload images. I ran the forumpath.php command, so I think I have the path right. I have no way of checking the imagehosting directory for permissions as GoDaddy won't let me and does not seem to know how to check it. Any suggestions?

[ThomasR]

Ranma2k: sorry, I didn't have the instant notification... sorry for the delay of my answer.
Yes and no, I mean, hiding the bbcode / html filed when displaying an image for all members, excepting for the owner of the image and the moderators/supermoderators and admin.

[Doctor Death]

Great mod, thank you.

I get these errors when rebuilding thumbnails....

Here is screen shot. This is new installation by the book.

Any advice is appreciated

[renderit]

Turned out to be a Safari browser problem. Firefox works fine. Anybody have a Safari work around?

Ranma;

I have tried /public_html/forums and other combinations but am at a loss to what works....

would you examine it and see where I am dorked up?

Thanks -- you are a lifesaver.

I realized something was wrong when I rebuilt thumbnaiks and got a TON of errors.

[Evolution06]

it's looks like the GD library is not installed isn't it ?

No I don't have a GD libary at this moment. I will look for it and install it on my server.

So after I do that everything should work good?

I have a question for you, Though I did not find it posted here, unless i need new glasses, but the question I have for your mod. (which is a perfect addition, by the way) is can, or is it possable, to make a modification to the code, to be able to let members make catagories in their image hosting area? or let admin to be able to give permission to add that option as well???

I had a few people ask this. and was wondering if it would be possable to do.

Thanks in Advance

PS: VBoard should add this to their regular system, as a installation item in a future release

I cleaned your html code up a bit and centered all the tables and tweaked it a bit this way it looks alot nicer if you want I can send you what I have done so you can see.

[RedGTiVR6]

I've recently updated our forum from 3.6.3 to 3.6.5.

In the process, it seems that the "Insert Image" button in the Quick Reply box no longer works.

I'm wondering if this mod has anything to do with that. If so, perhaps there's a simple fix?

[DementedMindz]

I don't see it for Quick reply in the instructions I see Adding quick upload and galleries box in new thread / reply?

[RedGTiVR6]

I didn't either, but I've found that some mods mess with other areas that they don't mention.

[dannylin3000]

it should work fine with no problem for Quick upload

in quick reply i didn't add any quick upload ...

[DementedMindz]

Though ver 2 have a complete rewrite .. but it would help to see what i might did wrong in previous ver ..

I'll wait to you post that then I'll look cause I have edited mine big time now as I don't allow hotlinking and removed the html code part when the image is displayed(should be a admin option) along with a few other parts. but alot is with your <input> tags not closed all the way and in you vbimghost.php changing & to &amp; also that I can think of is your valign="center" should be valign="middle" and images closed all the way. once you post the next version I can do it in detail on a text what I change. I'll send you a pm.

[Merriweather]

I was searching the thread and can't find if someone else had this issue, but I have my image limits set to:

Allowed file types .gif , .jpg , .png , .bmp
Max image size allowed 1024 KB
Max image dimention allowed 800 * 600


So I try to upload a photo that is 486 * 640 and 417 KB, but I get the error:

Image (filename) dimensions are too big

Do I have something set wrong? Does anyone else have this issue?

[karlm]

I'm using vb3.6.5 and the latest download of vbimagehost.
I have it working and all is extremely well. However, when I view my own images - it says "array" at the top and bottom of each image/page.

Any ideas please?

Thanks. :)

[karlm]

So I try to upload a photo that is 486 * 640 and 417 KB, but I get the error:

The image has a maximum vertical dimension of 600 - and you're trying to upload an image with a vertical dimension of 640. That's it.

Use your image editor to resize accordingly and it will work.

[Merriweather]

Sorry I wrote them wrong, the image I'm uploading is 640 HIGH, not wide.

[rci]

I desperately need something like this, but with some options added .. is it possible to make this so that a user can do groups of images choosing a "primary image" which will then be used as a thumbnail in his signature or near his nick, and then also add text description to each image .. ??

for example, imagine at the bottom of this page i had XXX amount of thumbnails (say, a default of 5) like this

(image 1 here) (image 2 here) (image 3 here) (image 4 here) (image 5 here)
my summer pics my winter pics my autmn pics my spring pics my other pics

and then, each of those images be clickable and open up a whole series of images with their description .. for example if you click on (image 1) , it will open a series of images of me at summer time, each of those images would be with a description text near it.

Also, optionally, that page with my summer images series on it would have a link like "view all images by this user" which will correspondingly show all the images that i currently have here..

is it possible to do ? would someone please do ? i desperately need it ..

Thanks a lot in advance

[GafferSports]

I am receiving errors on every upload, can anyone advise?

I have attached a screenshot of the errors.

[GafferSports]

I have just noticed that the errors are no longer there if you turn off the watermarking.

The issue was with the forum path, which is now sorted. Nice mod

the xml is only for ver update in case there is a security update regards the database

Hmm just installed it and I try to rebuild thumbs, and just get a white page. Then I tested uploading and got this "you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation. ¨

Any idea what could be the problem?

Edit vbimghost last 5 images - profile plugin, under Plugins & Products > Plugin Manager and at the top find

$rec = $vbulletin->db->query_read("
SELECT imgid,imgfile,thumbname,imgwidth,imgheight,imgdate
FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."vbimghost
WHERE userid='$userinfo[userid]' and imgprivate='0'
order by imgdate DESC
LIMIT 5
"); and replace with

$rec = $vbulletin->db->query_read("
SELECT imgid,imgfile,thumbname,imgwidth,imgheight,imgdate
FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."vbimghost
WHERE userid='$userinfo[userid]' and imgprivate='0'

[sublo]

Help!

Hey! Seems like a great product/plug-in. Pretty much exactly what I was looking for. I believe I followed the install.htm instructions verbatim. However, they seem to be a little lacking in detail. I'm not a dummy at all. I can't figure out why the new Vbimagehosting doesn't show up in the ADMINCP.

What exactly does this mean?


Go to the Admincp and reconfigure the usergroup and the option


Here's my site: http://www.camillegerard.com

I don't get it? Any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated.

:D

[sublo]

Ok. Please disregard my problem above. I am being somewhat of a bonehead. I figured out it's under "vBulletin Options." I see it in the AdminCP now. Phew.

Anyway, I have a different problem. What exactly does this mean (from the install instructions)?


Go to the Admincp and reconfigure the usergroup and the option


VB Imagehosting seems to be functioning properly but no user (including admins) can post. Where/and how do I set/alter permissions to allow this? Please be explicit ad my boneheaded-ness seems unusually high today.

Here's my error:

Freddy, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

1. Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?

Goto the UserGroups tab in your AdminCp, expand that and click UserGroup Manager and then whatever groups you want permissions set on. Look for the options under the VB Image Hosting options making sure you enable Can upload images ?

Thanks for the quick response. I guess this is my problem and I've screwed something up in the installation becaue I do not see a VB Image Host expandable section in the AdminCP left pane. There is only a subsection of VB Image Hosting under the general vBulletin drop-down options in the CP.

I'm supposed to see scr06.jpg (below) in there am I not? It's not there.

When I do as you suggest under UserGroup Manager, there is no section at all titled "VB Image Hosting Options."

Confused.

reupload the XML files in the includes/xml directory
and then re import the product XML

[dizzy100]

You need to look further down the left pane to one of the vbulletin default sections. There you'll find your UserGroup Manager.

Also make sure you refreshed your AdminCP after importing the XML or you won't see what your screenshot shows until you log out and back in.

OK. I found the AdminCP problem. I neglected to copy one includes/xml .php file. That's resolved. It now shows up on the left hand pane. Thanks for the help.

I still have this permissions problem quoted above for all users - can't upload - permission denied. Which permission group am I supposed to be seeing and editing?

Thanks guys.

I think I must be missing something. Is there supposed to be a separate permissions area for VB Image Hosting? If so I don't see it when, for example, setting the Administrators and Registered Users permissions (see screenshots).

you'll need to make sure that

if everything you did is correct and still have problem

[Sc0rian]

Ranma2k..

I just upgraded my forum to the new version...

i see you've added a new field into the SQL...

I have a problem now.. I cant import the old sql back in...

SQL query:

--
-- Dumping data for table `vbimghost`
--
INSERT INTO `vbimghost`
VALUES ( 1, 1, '1441c1e68508b1.JPG', 'DSCF0005.JPG', 75, 800, 600, 1142693480, 0 )

MySQL said: Documentation
#1136 - Column count doesn't match value count at row 1

of course coz its all wrong now..

what can i do with all my old sql data?





in other words, how do i get the old sql code to work with new version

[sublo]

New issue.

What's up with this error?

Uploaded file is not an image

I'm trying to upload known .jpg's well below my limits of 3008x2000 and 3MB. 2200x1800 1.8MB files are uploaded with no problem. Does this having something to do with fields of the vmimghost table in MySQL? Should I attempt to adjust them?

Thanks.

Thanks.


:erm:
what type of img is that ?
if it's a text file with the extension .jpg it won't work .

also note that you can't bypass the php.ini file setting

so if you set the size limit to 5 mb but in php.ini setting it's set to 2 mb you can only upload 2 mb files

restore the old table first then install this ver

[rburns]

Ranma2k,

Is there a way to set all usergroups to be allowed to upload images?

I have about 50 usergroups and it would be quicker for me to dissallow the 5 or so I don't want to have it rather than manually go through allowing 50.

[sublo]

Whoo hoo! That did it! seting max upload size to 3M and restarting Apache fixed it!

Wasn't a text file. These are actual JPG photos.

Thanks.

:cool:

[hinch]

what php ver your using .. ?

PHP 4.4.4-8+etch1

(debian)

strange thing is it still works just perfectly it just throws up those errors for seemingly no reason

[sublo]

This mod is great and all but one thing I would really like is the ability to toggle the image properties on and off. For example: BB Code URL, BB Code Image and HTML code. I'd like not to display those.

[tekstylez]

This mod worked great untill i tried to use it on another forum.

When rebuilding thumbnails i get the following error:

Warning: getimagesize(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/home/user/public_html/forums/imagehosting/1461fe104d7168.jpg) is not within the allowed path(s): (/home/ishson1:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php:/tmp) in /admincp/vbimghost.php on line 279

Warning: getimagesize(/home/user/public_html/forums/imagehosting/1461fe104d7168.jpg): failed to open stream: Operation not permitted in /admincp/vbimghost.php on line 279

And when using the quick upload in the reply box, The bbcode displays but the actual photo does not..

I am also having a problem with the watermark not showing

This mod is great and all but one thing I would really like is the ability to toggle the image properties on and off. For example: BB Code URL, BB Code Image and HTML code. I'd like not to display those.

Just edit them out of the template.

Check out vbimghost_imgbits in the VB IMAGE HOSTING Templates

find and remove
