this is really cool... the possibities w/ vb... i am a novice and this was a very easy install... i checked out your site too.. very interesting products. :cool:

[Lionel]

I just finished installing. Very, very nice!!!

[PixelFx]

looks cool, do you offer branding free donation for your script?

[Allan]

Good idea ;)

On Sunday I should release a commercial version of it with much more features (read here (http://www.vbgreece.com/index.php?page=vbhotornot). Should cost only $24.90 and in that version you can remove my copyright.
But even in this one, if it's important for you to remove it, feel free to do it. Only the fact that you asked me, is enought for me. Just don't replace it as yours.

Its very good addon but cansome body please share some demo site??
and can this work on attached images??

For your first question see my demo (http://www.vbgreece.com/forums/vbhotornot.php).
Sorry, but I didn't got the meaning of your 2nd question.:ermm:

[Lionel]

something is wrong. I tested with 4 different users all rating the same picture with a 10. The first 2 were ok, then at the third 10 rating, average rate displayed 6.67 based on 3 votes (of 10). At the fourth 10 rating, it displayed average 4.47

How many of them (users) where the owner of the photo?;) Strange. I tested till 30 votes.

[Lionel]

none were owners. Owners can't vote. User 1 voted then logged out. User 2 logged on and voted then logged out and so on.

[MaryTheG(r)eek]

No, its not. I found the bug. I acceddently removed a field from database. Moment. I'll be back in 5 min

[Lionel]

What is strange, I went on databse just now, and changed the 4.47 to 10.00 so it displays rating 10 based on 4 votes right? Then user 5 came in and rated photo 10.

It now displays rating 4.00 based on 5 votes.

[MaryTheG(r)eek]

The problem in programming is not when you're writing code but when you subtrack code. I've deleted a field from database. For those who already installed it just import again: vbhotornot.xml and upload vbhotornot.php
For all the other Zip file is updated with changes.

[Lionel]

you are also missing this template, but it appears it's not doing anything. It was showing as uncached. I commented it out and everything remained fine

vbhotornot_categorysidebit

[stonner]

Installed and clicked.

Great work!

Is there a possibiliy to add a module on vbAdvanced CMPS with a random picture. and when you click on it, you should go to its rating-page.

thank you!

[Lionel]

rating bug is fixed.

[MaryTheG(r)eek]

Installed and clicked.

Yes it very easy. eg to have Top Male/Female, or Newer Male/Female or random as you said. Maybe i'll spend this weekend to write some module for vbAdvnaced for this and for my other modules.

[Lionel]

A mass upload or process from server on premium version would be nice too. Since we can have many categories, for example we can have a category for beaches, or cars and instead of uploading them one by one ....

[Gizmo5h1t3]

theres a few uncached templates here m8...

Uncached templates: vbhotornot_categorysidebit (2)

[MaryTheG(r)eek]

theres a few uncached templates here m8...

But I dont use this template in the Free version. Is it somewhere in .xml file or I forgot it to .php file?

[Lionel]

it's in the php

so what would i do with it?

great addition btw m8....works well apart from this...

[Lionel]

great addition btw m8....works well apart from this...

just comment it out in the php by putting

//

in front of it.

I have another problem. I set unregistered as can use but cannot rate. I assumed by that that they can see, but cannot do anything.

Yet they are able to rate

[Gizmo5h1t3]

ahh..thanks.

i deleted the whole line out before i saw this .....lol

it still works fine tho

[The Chief]

Is there a way to show the rating of the member's photos in the user's profile?

Also, maybe from the Top Female and Top Male, is there a way to link to their profile from the picture??

Thanks!!

awesome hack btw...

[steelerwatch]

Step 5: CMOD the following directoris to 777
/photos (inside vbhotronot directory)
/tmp (inside vbhotronot directory)
/thumbs (inside vbhotronot/photos directory)

I can't find any of these files.

[Gizmo5h1t3]

theyre folders mate, inside the "forums" folder in the download.
chmod em to 777 once u have uploaded em.

You assumed wrong ;) Unregistered can use and rate but not add/edit/delete. At least tin this version.

[DPSR]

For your first question see my demo (http://www.vbgreece.com/forums/vbhotornot.php).
Sorry, but I didn't got the meaning of your 2nd question.:ermm:
I mean can this addon be used to rate the pictures attached (uploaded as attachments) to a thread?

[ChavMagnet]

Can you make it so it displayes as ratemycar.php rather than vbhototnot.php same with the other files ect. As it would suit my site alot better.

[MaryTheG(r)eek]

I mean can this addon be used to rate the pictures attached (uploaded as attachments) to a thread?

No, I'm usinf seperate table for the data, as I dont want to touch any vB's table to keep compatibility with upcoming upgrades of vB. A user must upload a photo only in my module.

[MaryTheG(r)eek]

Can you make it so it displayes as ratemycar.php rather than vbhototnot.php same with the other files ect. As it would suit my site alot better.
I'm thinking to use other name for the commercial version. Something like vbphotovote or vbrateit

[ChavMagnet]

Well that doesnt really answer my question. Can you recode it to say ratemycar.php? or maybe even something like rate.php loose the vb at the front it looks crap :)

[MaryTheG(r)eek]

Well that doesnt really answer my question. Can you recode it to say ratemycar.php? or maybe even something like rate.php loose the vb at the front it looks crap :)

I can do it only as a custom modification. You can post a request here (http://www.vbgreece.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=21).

[ChavMagnet]

well would that cost me? and why not just make it here why do i have to re-register when you know what i want lol.

[cuphongle]

alot of bandwidth?
nice addition

[MaryTheG(r)eek]

well would that cost me? and why not just make it here why do i have to re-register when you know what i want lol.
Because the official module's support will be there, but the main reason is that I don't want to broke the rules of this site.

[yinyang]

how about vbvote?
also, i own hotspotornot.com and was wondering if this could be tailored to "places" instead of people, and if you could add comments right below it.... like an ajax function where comments show up only after you vote.

if yes, i'll head to your site to continue this discussion more.

Hot or not with joomla has definately few errors but not this one well done man..
great hack.

[MaryTheG(r)eek]

Hello,

I've noticed that many of you commented that:
1.- Links (Male/Female) don't work
2.- Someone can rate multiple times

Well, here I want to make a clarification. To explain what is my meaning of Free modules (and software in general). For me, Freee modules are offering by the author for use in small communities, mostly non profit communities just to make them more interesting to visitors. In none case (even if you're free to do it), I thought that I must spent my less and valuable time to write the super module and then to give it for free for use in commercial sites, in other words to give the ability to someone to have profits of my work.

Sure I know that the links don't work. I removed links just a few moment before post the module. But I left eg the infromation box at the left top side after your vote, I left Top Male/Female, I left Newest Male/Female and most important the module works fine, ehh? All of these I think that are much more than enought for someone who wants to use it in his small community. Sure I can put restrictions on multiple votes. And not only to restrict 2nd vote, but depending on the Admin, to let user not vote again at all, or to vote again after xx days.

Please try to understand, that I'm half-century woman, I've my family and I can't spend so much time just for free. Most of you (I'm talking in general) don't like to spent a moment just to click install, or to come to my site for support which make me feel like a ping-pong's ball, running between 2 forums here and to my site, and to write same things 2-3 times.

With my real love
Maria
PS- Don't get them in your face :rolleyes:

[ChavMagnet]

Can i have permission to edit it all to suit my needs?

[MaryTheG(r)eek]

well done man..
Do I look like a man in the photo??? :confused:

[MaryTheG(r)eek]

Can i have permission to edit it all to suit my needs?
What to say??... No??.. Since you asked I can't say no. Just respect the time that I spent. You know what I mean.

[ChavMagnet]

Then either release it on vbulletin.org or your own site. But knowone is gonna check your site if they dont know it. Im grateful for the hack but if everytime i wanted supprt on a hack i found here which maded me sign up to a new site i wouldnt bother. If you release a supported hack on vb.org be prepared to supprt it here.

[ChavMagnet]

What to say??... No??.. Since you asked I can't say no. Just respect the time that I spent. You know what I mean.

Thank you full credits will still be given.

[MissKalunji]

will that work on ANY site or only with vbmate?

[ccmoon]

Is this working OK with 3.6.0?

[MaryTheG(r)eek]

will that work on ANY site or only with vbmate?
No, it's an intependent module. It should work without vbMates. vbMates will have in the next version it's own rating system.

[MaryTheG(r)eek]

Is this working OK with 3.6.0?
Has been tested with 3.5.5 and 3.6.2 but as like vbMates it dosen't touch any vB data, so 99% will be compatible with 3.6.0

[Hornstar]

I remember that site hot or not lol, it was very popular for ages. This might be a nice addition to the site for some fun lol.

[MissKalunji]

No, it's an intependent module. It should work without vbMates. vbMates will have in the next version it's own rating system.


thank you! so that means i can install it and make it to rate profile instead?

[Lionel]

thank you! so that means i can install it and make it to rate profile instead?

this is a picture rating script. If you want to rate profile, use visionscripts interactive profiles. That does all these myspace.com things including changing css

[Veer]

Installed.

I Really Appreciate Your Great Work :)

Thanks, Be Happy.

[jwocky]

Great script, but people can vote multiple times, this ruins the script in my opinion, it very much skews the results and if users have to rerate everything it dissuades ppl from using it. Just my opinion

[MissKalunji]

Never! I'de rather shut down my site then use anything from visionscript. and i am NOT trying to be like myspace either...

why im asking this is i dont see WHAT pictures it will be rating since most gallery has already a rating system included

So what picture will people be rating? just curious before i installed thats all...

But thanks for your suggestions still

[rainyleaves]

How can I buy Premium version?

[The Chief]

Will wait until more stable version and with more features.

Thanks for this great hack and continue the good efforts! :)

[MaryTheG(r)eek]

In this version they can rate only photos Males/Females, even if you can change the phrases to replace them with something else, but limitation is 2 categories.
In my commercial version there are no limitation in categories. You can rate anything. The users must upload a photo which is intepedent from any other vb photo (profile or gallery)

I know it, it's not in bug. Read some posts before, where I explained why i didn't put restrictions in free version.

[MaryTheG(r)eek]

How can I buy Premium version?

in my site (http://www.vbgreece.com), but it will be ready on Sunday.

[Gizmo5h1t3]

but to be honest m8, if youre not gonna sort out the fact ppl can rate again and again, in the free version, its not much of an advert for the premium is it?

think about it, being able to rate somethin multiple times just defeats the WHOLE object of the hack.

it then becomes a page hwere u can just click on a pic again and again...with no effect on the overall result..(as an accurate rating)

uninstalling this, if ppl can rate again and again, not much point in having it on in the first place.

sorry.

:confused: All phrases are in the file: product-hotornot.xml Make a search for "Hor" and you'll find it. Correct it with a text editor (like notepad) and the import again from admicCP. Dont forget to check "Overwrite". It will take the changes.
Additionally you can search from adminCP in phrases for text: Hor

Installed zero issues on 3.6.0

An URL inside the text box so people can forward it to ask their friends to vote for them.

Better yet, a button right next to it to send that URL to a friend!

I had the mod installed on my board and everything worked fine, then I imported the xml that is attached to this thread (separate from the zip file) and upload the new vbhotornot.php file (also attached sperate from the zip file) and I got errors. I tried to unistall the xml and i got database errors also. I have disabled the product for the time being.

It was wrong to get the seperate files as these were for user who download it very early before I found a bug that I corrected. That's why in my post after correction I wrote "Zip file updated".
In any case do the following:
1.- Go to Manage Products and choose "Edit" for vbHotOrNot.
2.- Delete everything that it's in the box "Uninstall code"
3.- Press Save
4.- Goto to product Manager and choose Uninstall for HotOrNot
5.- Import again the xml file from the zip file
6.- If you had replaced vbhotornot.php file in your server upload the new one (from the zip file).

be careful with the premium version of this thing.
everybody's email is wide open for all to see in a view source. And if you complain to the coder about it, you get banned.

1.- There is no premium version of this "thing". vbHotOrNot has just one version this one that is posted here. There is a 100% different module with different name with different options and 100% incompatible for upgrade from this "thing". This is just a Male/Female rating script while the other is a General Photo rating script.
2.- I didn't banned your from my forums because you did complains. I banned you because you used abusive language for me. Except if in your daily life to call a woman "stuborn" in public, or "acting as a 9yo child" are good words. And all these because I use my own way on programming different from the way that Mr Lionel is using.

[Lionel]

whatever Greek Goddess. The fact remained that exposing everybody's email is BAD practice.

And if you are going to tell me as an argument that right click and view source is illegal, then there is nothing more childish than that. Lucky I did not say stupid.

For the good of the community, this needs to be addressed immediately.

This error message comes becuase you CMOD wrong or not all needed directories. 3 directories must be CMOD 777 (execute, read, write from all)
vbhotornot/photos
vbhotornot/tmp
vbhotornot/photos/thumbs

[acegames]

Installed and works perfect

I did have to edit the product xml for a spelling mistake with hot or not ?

It read Hor Or Not ? ;)

[acegames]

Now removed , it seems pointless installing as it has many basic features missing

You cant even see all photos only the last uploaded

Would have been a great hack if it was finished

Maybe you should post on the install page that its a "demo" ?

forgive me as i am an amatuer with web coding etc...what i have done is created the above folders in the vbhotornot directory on my server...is that what i am supposed to do or is there something else?

cheers

[MaryTheG(r)eek]

You're wrong. You're doing something wrong. Except if you're trying to see photos your photos. You can't see (and rate) your photos. Otherwise all photos appear normally.

Would have been a great hack if it was finished
It has finished. You can see it here http://www.vbgreece.com/forums/vbphotovote.php

Maybe you should post on the install page that its a "demo" ?
When I post it here, it had 100% of the features. Later I added a lot more (that's why I change the name too), but I don't plan to post any update here as long as 98% of those who installed it have removed my copyright. It's not fair that they don't want even to give me in exchange for my work a small advertisment. And believe me I know very well who and where has installed it. Here it says xx only installs while there are more than 300!.

any chance some can explain the CMOD 777 thing to me?

[MaryTheG(r)eek]

any chance some can explain the CMOD 777 thing to me?
If your server is Linux and if you know to use any FTP client (most probably as you already uploaded the files), then right click on that folder name, choose properties and then check all checkboxes (must be nine).
Do it for all 3 directories that I wrote before.

If I understood well from the directory name, are you running on a Windows server? In that point the script is trying to upload the photo. In a Linux server the problem should be that there are no write permissions at the directory (CMOD 777). In a Windows servers you must check how to set permissions execite/read/write by all.
There are 3 directories that must have these permissions:
/photos
/tmp
/photos/thumbs

Are you sure that there is a directory /tmp under /vbhotornot ? NOT under /photos. Actually resizing is taken action before uploading. At that time script needs to find this /tmp (temporary) directory to use it before upload the photo.

[Mageniks]

.\forum\vbhotornot
.\forum\vbhotornot\images
.\forum\vbhotornot\includes
.\forum\vbhotornot\photos
.\forum\vbhotornot\tmp

THere what i have in my directory

Edit :I just check what i have on tmp directory have some pic maded
Example : php341.tmp.jpg

So the tmp images has been created but when the script tried to move it to store location it didn't found it:rolleyes: You dont have the directory:
.\forum\vbhotornot\photos\thumbs when thumbnails are stored. It also must be cmod 777

I have all folder and all is cmod 777

[MaryTheG(r)eek]

I have all folder and all is cmod 777

Have you checked if there ara any files in folders:
/photos
/photos/thumbs
?
In any case, since the script is creating the temporary file seems that it works. Just, it can't move the created files and this is 100% a wrong permissions status. That's why the temporary file still exists. If it can move the created files then, it auto delete.
I haven't deal with win servers, but I know that there is a different way to cmod them than like in Linux.

Yes i check and no file in /photos/thumbs

As last chance try to cmod 777 /vbhotornot directory . In Linux servers only the destination directory needs to be cmod. Maybe in windows servers needs all the directories below the script.

[^SuiCyde^]

any way that i could use this with a slight modification to make the hot or not system work for top tracks? like instead of each user putting up a photo.....they upload or link to an uploaded track, much like the live music feature offered through the zoints hack......to vote hot or not......with top track and such....and instead of male or female, make it...... R&B or Hiphop?

[MrPHD]

Nice Work. Installed

[ThePimp]

The Manage Photos Admin section doesn't work. How do I fix this? I click "Manage Photos" and get a page with these table headers:
Photo Username Controls

With no images in there.

Hello to all of you,

Before Christmas I'm planing to release new versions for both vbPhotoVote (former vbHotOrNot) and vbMates (Dating module), with more features like:

1.- vbPhotoVote

Double vote restriction
Admin approval for photos
...and maybe more...2.- vbMates

Multiple search (Gender, Age, Location etc)
Admin approval for profiles
...and maybe more...The only difference is that new versions will have php code encrypted (but without any special server needs). Sorry, but I've been so disappointed seeing that 98% of you have you removed my copyright the only thing that I asked for exchange of my free offer.

Due to restriction at vBorg for encrypted files, anyone of you, who wants to download the new version must visit and register to my site http://www.vbgreece.com

I'm wishing to all of you Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Everything that you wish to become true at the new year. Health and Happiness to you and to your family.

Cheers
Maria

Hi when is it going to be available for 3.6.4 version? I downloaded it but can't install it. Went to your site and like the premium version too but dont see a any for the latest version of vbulletin. Thanks.

[ElForro]

Why isn't the usernames linked to their profile? I would like to know that and I will install!

Thanks!

[Calibre_k]

Can you also add feature so users can leave comments on pictures?

I keep getting, "AN ERROR FOUND, YOUR PHOTO HAS NOT UPLOADED".

Why is this happening ?

[Conlons]

Hi there

Very Nice Add-on, really like it. Just got one problem though and I don't know whether anyone else as had this problem. When I try to upload a second photo I get a blank screen. Can you please help because this is really frustrating:confused:

[Draygonia]

There is a slight problem... For some reason in the usergroup manager when I try to change permissions, it does not give me an option relating to vbhotornot. It is almost as if it does not exist or vbulletin does not recognize it.

[Exitilus]

I keep getting, "AN ERROR FOUND, YOUR PHOTO HAS NOT UPLOADED".

Most likely you didn't CHMOD all the directories.

For those of you who're now in proccess of installing vbHotOrNot, my advice is to wait a couple of days till the release of the Free (Lite) version of vbPhotoVote. Even if it has not all the features of the commercial version, it has double features of vbHotOrnot. If you want to see a demo of vbPhotoVote :

[evilfairygirl]

UGH!!!

WOW, 10 pages to find this at the end.....:(

Good deal, I guess I'll wait for this release of photovote....

[evilfairygirl]

Well I need help with the hotornot mod. When voting a pic I cant seem to get back the second picture, then I can "not rate this photo" then I will get a new one but then its right back to the second pics again after I vote the new one and i need to "not vote" until I get to the new pics...Does that make sense and have any ideas why its doing this.

Thanks in advance

Ohhh Can't wait till the light version :) I was actually thinking of doing the Trial so i'll wait and see :)

Nevermind..
I just now realized you cant view or rate your own photos..
Only other peoples..

I have the same issue...
it keeps going back to the same 2 photos...
regardless if you vote or not...
what gives?
Uninstall?

[evilfairygirl]

I've left a support ticket with her on her board and she hasnt answered it either, and its been a week. I have no choice but to uninstall it. I even tried to buy the commercial product and got the run around on just answering a questions about it. What is really weird is that her site vbgreece.com but the site is down or moved or gone and it only has a redirect page saying to go to madebymary.com but then she said, I'm going to quote her words exactly. "For support visit my site http://www.vbGreece.com
and of course I've added a redirection to my new site. Sorry, but I can't play the roll of the ball in a ping-pong game moving around all the sites that I've post my modules." Are you kidding me? Ping pong ball, just update this site and everyone will have that one place to go for support? I'm done chasing her around the internet to find info on her product that doesn't work.

Good product in the wrong hands it appears.

I know the product is free, and I've been very patient, I've started this from my first post which is dated above. I want to purchase the commercial product but again if I cant get answers for some concerns I have then it doesnt matter if its free or not. It doesnt work period.

[osso12]

same here.
I love the program and was thinking of buying the new photo vote when it comes out.
But not with this kind of delay on help and questions on this program here. Why waiste time and money on something we really dont have to have with in the first place if we can't get help on it when we need it? Plenty of other free mods that work fully. Love the program, and Do not get me wrong. She has responded to some of my pm's.
But I think she might need to hire some help if she can't keep up with the demand her product requires.
I uninstalled the hot or not this morning untilwe can get some of these questions answered. Sad too because my members like the mods.

[MaryTheG(r)eek]

I've left a support ticket with her on her board and she hasnt answered it either, and its been a week.

Can you give me please your ticket's id? as:

There is no any member with this nickname in my site
There is no any open ticket. All tickets have been replied (average) in 45min except if it opened on time that is night in Greece, but in anycase none ticket has exceeded the 7 hours.I even tried to buy the commercial product and got the run around on just answering a questions about it. What is really weird is that her site vbgreece.com but the site is down or moved or gone and it only has a redirect page saying to go to madebymary.com but then she said, I'm going to quote her words exactly.

Not Ping-Pong? Let's count:

4 Threads for my modules here + PM = 5
4 Threads for my modules in vbHackers + PM =5
1 Thread in a Greek site + PM = 2
Forums and PM in my site =2
Helpdesk in my site
Normal EmailsThat's a total of 16 different places. Do you still believe what you wrote?? You wrote to update my link. Read carefully the posts. There was even one who wrote: "Why to register again in another site. I want support (when I've checked the option Unsupported) and I want the support here".

Reading all these an old Greek saying is coming to my mind "In a hard period for men to find a woman, someone not only wanted a woman right now, but he wanted her to have "it" shaved".

I know the product is free, and I've been very patient, I've started this from my first post which is dated above. I want to purchase the commercial product but again if I cant get answers for some concerns I have then it doesnt matter if its free or not. It doesnt work period.

I have wrote it many times... Read my posts before... There is no commercial version of this. There is a 100% different product. Nothing in common with this.

I have the same issue. A user can add the photos, but when you go through to rate you get stuck in a loop. The first image to rate comes up and you rate it, the second image comes up and you rate it, the second image comes up again and you rate it again, and again, over and over until finally choose "I dont want to vote for this photo" and then the third picture comes up and you vote, and the damn second picture comes up again.. grrr..

This would be a nice little free script for my small free community, but it does not function. Will this bug be fixed or are we going to be told to uninstall it and move on?
