Picture and Album Gallery

[bad2dbone]

Maybe you just installed your forum into the root of your server. Not a good idea IMHO, but at any rate it's the folder with showpost.php and showthread.php.

Thanks it worked thanks a bunch

Does this mod allow for the following situation.

Admin creates album.
All Members can add to that album?

For example, i create a album for a car show our club went to, then all the people who attended can add their images (but not delete) to the same album, keeping everything uniform.

Cheers.

Cheers.No. This mod does not change the basic functionality of the stock vB "Albums" but rather presents the data in a different fashion.

... I didn't like that the Navtab presentation was a dropdown menu and different than my other tabs. So I edited the system to work like other tabs. ...Mind if I run with your idea and post an update? :) I started with your original post but ran into a few issues (some missing curly braces to close the phrase names, sessionurl instead of sessionurl_q, etc.) and before I knew it I ended up adding code to cache the template (that will eliminate an extra query on every page) and also added a link for "Latest Albums" on the "What's New" tab.

That is fine.

Actually have the template cached in another plugin assigned to the cache_templates hook. Would be good to have it assigned to the product though. I have a product just for the site that contains the plugin currently.


if (THIS_SCRIPT == 'vbcms')
{
$cache[] = 'forumhome_loggedinuser';
}

if (THIS_SCRIPT == 'index')
{
$cache[] = 'block_users_online';
}

$cache[] = 'gallery_navbar_link';


Have a plugin to group the templates as well. It is assigned to the template_groups hook.


$only['gallery_'] = $vbphrase['group_gallery'];

[KW802]

...Have a plugin to group the templates as well. It is assigned to the template_groups hook. ...One ahead of you. :D


I'll post the product XML in a minute.

... I didn't like that the Navtab presentation was a dropdown menu and different than my other tabs. So I edited the system to work like other tabs. ...

Attached is a vB product XML (done with vB 4.1.3) that started off as a result of Wayne posting his original alternate navbar idea (see the past few posts above for the rest of the details :p).

This product will do the following for you...
Add a new "Gallery" button to your navbar in the same style as the stock vB buttons. The new templates will be cached.
After clicking "Gallery" you will then get links for "Album Gallery", "Picture Gallery", "Latest Albums", "My Albums", and "Add Album" in the sub-menu area.
Add a new "Latest Albums" link to your "What's New" button menu.
Group the various "Gallery" templates together.Yep, just some very minor little things but it gives a clean overall integration feel. Attached are screen shots of what a logged in user will see.


EDIT: For those that may not have a lot of uploads, I recommend increasing the number of days for uploads to show up in the "Latest Albums" search results so that you're less likely to get a blank page when hitting that link (ACP => Settings => Options => User Profile: Album Options => Recent Album Update Days).

Hi. A forum I'm an admin of is currently using this hack and many members are asking for a minimize button so that they don't have to view the album at the bottom of the page. Is this a possible addition that can be done in the future?

I looked around a bit more - this is the mod we have for an actual ALBUM add-on. However, the head admin used two different mods for the album. I'm not the install admin, I'm the find out what members want/hacks admin wants, figure out how to solve and report to head admin to fix person.

Sorry about that~ >>

Great mod! Thanks!

But... can you please tell me how to fix the issue with black font on grey menu i encounter in my style? Every other menu is ok, but the one for this mod. Where do i need to edit/change from black to white?

Thank you again!

[LiverpoolB]

Great mod but I have a problem. It all works fine apart from when I go to AdminCP, when I click on any of the links for VBA Gallery, every link creates a database error. I can upload pics etc from the forum but I have no control over the actual settings.

Database error
The BFT database has encountered a problem.
Please try the following:
Load the page again by clicking the Refresh button in your web browser.
Open the www.*******.co.uk home page, then try to open another page.
Click the Back button to try another link.
The www.*******e.co.uk forum technical staff have been notified of the error, though you may contact them if the problem persists.

We apologise for any inconvenience.

Any ideas?

[Videx]

Great mod but I have a problem. It all works fine apart from when I go to AdminCP, when I click on any of the links for VBA Gallery, every link creates a database error. What you quoted isn't the actual error we would need to be of any help. Try viewing the page source for the actual error text.

When you get the actual error, be sure to try searching first for the solution - use the "search this mod" button to the upper right.

And there's really no need to edit out your forum's urls. I assume it's a public forum and nobody here is going to cause you any grief by knowing where it is.

[Bozza]

When the mod description says...

"Adds a Gallery drop-down menu to the nav bar OR to the navtab which allows browsing AND searching of all pictures and albums on your site."

...does all include attachments? I've installed as I want a way to 'unlock' many years of attached images on my site but I'm not convinced this is showing me them.

[chocolate angel]

[rootsxrocks]

another basic Feature that should already be standard

[RF600]

is there a possibility to create a category where the user upload the pictures to? for example, cars, nature and a few other

or is there something else that I can take it. what is free. ;-)

[denman75]

thank you for this modification its great

But i use a fixed template ,but i dont want the pics show next to each other, but for example in rows , 3 rows with 4 pictures width in stead of one long horizontal line of pictures is this possible?
now if i set more than 4 pictures they stand next to my template
sorry for the bad English ill ad a picture to explain it a bit better
if its possible

Hi....I need help. This is the first time i have attempted to install anything on my forum. We use v4.0.3 and wanted this album feature......but i dont seem to be able to get the two first options on the drop down menu to work. When i click the Album Gallery or the Picture Gallery i get this:-

Not Found
The requested URL /albumall.php was not found on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

and this for the picture album :-

Not Found

The requested URL /picall.php was not found on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

I sure its a simple fix, but i do need someone to point .....no.....spell out a solution to me, i can be best described as learner when it comes to this.

forgive my ignorance please,No, that is NOT what it says to do. Hey, I can forgive your ignorance, but can your forum members? You don't have to be an IT expert to install and maintain a forum, but it's lots harder than running a Yahoo Group.

I'm guessing you used something like Fantastico to install vbulletin? Then, with the information I already gave you, you should be able to find your forum folder with FTP.

But you must read instructions carefully! And you must read the entire thread before installing any modification! Many mods don't work at all, some will screw your forum badly, and some have code released later that can really improve things.

[ICC FORUM]

ah.......yes, apologies for that.

so, where do i copy the contents, i used the process 2, 3,4 and 5 to get the button on the navbar, but the two php files have not copied in, how would i do that,

where is this forum folder?

[Videx]

I've told you at least twice. I'm not sure how else I can say it. Have you found poll.php yet?

where is this forum folder?
I usually just re-name the "upload" folder the same as my forum root directory after I have unzipped it. The default root folder here is named "forum" yours may be something else
http://www.example.org/forum/ (http://www.example.org/forum/)

you have a ways to go but many of us have had to learn our way around, installing mods might be something you should wait on, until you get the basics of hosting and FTP navigation down pac. When it comes to template edits your head may explode or you may bite someone in your vicinity while you try to concentrate on the details. :D

[Jake99]

I have installed this and it works great!! I have no complaint's about the plugin. I'm just wanting to know how can I make it so that when you click the gallery tab and the drop down box comes down I want to have more options there that takes you to a certain gallery and it only shows pictures from a specific place or thread/forum instead of showing just all of pictures on the website. Hope this makes since how I worded it.

Sorry Videx for not giving full details. I am using vBulletin 4.1.3. The server is a dedicated one, dual Xeon with 16GB RAM.

I don't know why, but this happened after upgrading from 3.8.x to 4.1.3. I also noticed that in my /album folder on the server there is no new addition since the upgrade (over a month). So i am assuming the new Picture and Album Gallery is working differently, stocking the files in another folder (or maybe even in the database - although i have everything on file storage)...

But, i can't find anything related to those images, or settings i can change to see the images in albums like they were before. That's why i really need help!

Thanks!

[MonkYZ]

I am uploading some screenshots that might help understand the situation. In the first one (vBulletin 3.8) you can see how the same image is resized to fit (1024px) and in the second one (vBulletin 4.1.3), the same image is not resized at all, exceeding the website fixed size (1200px) and looking really bad.

I just hope there is a fix for this. Thanks again!

[The Rocketeer]

this mod needs some updating, On 4.1.4 it breaks the formatting, all images are shown way too big and nothing like the example pics. It was working fine upto 4.1.3. :(

nope, there is something wrong that makes all the pics appear too big instead of as thumbnails. I even tried the version 109 ( vB4 Gallery 109.zip ) and it stil shows up as 1.8.

My problem seems to be that the album thumbnails instead of appearing as thumbnails are showing up in a bigger size. So I was wondering what could be causing this. since it was working till 4.1.2

[teach1st]

There's nothing to see as a guest. It's a class site and guests have very limited access. You won't be able to see the gallery.

Still haven't been able to figure out why the album images are showing up as full size instead of showing up as thumbnails as it shows in the authors screenshot. :(

[The Rocketeer]

Strange, all the images are way out of proportion on my one.
This is exactly the problem I am having

[teach1st]

Could it be related to settings in admincp?

[The Rocketeer]

no, already tried that one I'm afraid. didn't see any such settings to control the image sizes in User Profile:Album Options.

[Videx]

I'm pretty sure I remember seeing this problem in ages past. Have you re-read the entire thread for clues? It's possible other things were also updated recently on your server and you just never noticed until you did the 414 update.

[The Rocketeer]

Thanks Videx, I got it sorted now. haha..

This was the solution https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=237931&page=7

I had the thumbnails set to 600 for some reason. haha lol.

PS: I am still having some text overflowing issues after setting the thumbs at 100 and rebuilding the attachment thumbnail counter..

Edit: found a half baked solution to that text / information overlapping too, here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=2018432&postcount=182

[The Rocketeer]

To the author, it would have been great if the mod

1. as default, would display everything as 100 ~ 150px ish and without bothering with the Thumbnail settings.

2. The album.css was fixed a bit so that the lines dont get overlapped if the titles are longer than usual.

[fmgrowit]

I've been looking for a photo gallery for my forum for a while now. Since the developer of this mod seems to have abandoned this thread, would anyone recommend installing this mod?

I'm not a designer/coder/programer and the last thing I need is another headache on my site. Someday if the site ever gets big enough, I'll hire a full time tech, but until then, I can't even find someone to design a stinking title banner. (and to answer the developer's question to an early problem with someone else...no, I don't have time to read 40 pages of posted to try to understand this mod, the install or the bugs.)

[The Rocketeer]

why dont you guys go to the authors website(its listed up there somewhere) and ask him to help us?

[fmgrowit]

Here's the author's last post on the site. I think he's uninterested in this thread.

07 Mar 2011, 10:22
I have to agree with Videx - if you spent some time learning how vB works (or even reading the older posts on this thread) it would save me time providing vB support instead of Mod support :)

Check out the groups section in your user profile - you will find you can create groups with group pictures.

[coffeelover]

I would also love to see an option built into the mod that allows admins to set a fixed thumbnail size for just the gallery images. I have a photography forum so I have the global thumbnail image size set at around 400 pixels. This is a little too big (actually, it's awkward) for the pictures in the gallery albums. An option to change the thumbnail size just in the gallery would be very helpful!

[The Rocketeer]

Here's the author's last post on the site. I think he's uninterested in this thread.


Well there's a link to his forum - http://www.hoverclub.org.uk/
why dont you go over there and ask him to maybe update his mod and make it better :P ?

[NTMID8]

Is there an add-on for this that will create a new thread in a specific forum when a new album is created or an existing album has been updated?

If not, is this possible and would anyone like to take on the challenge?

I've left a message at the website defined in the coder's profile. Maybe we'll get a response.

[Videx]

It's a bit unfair to expect the author of a mod to start coding all types of variations. The guy coded something that did what he wanted it to, then was gracious enough to release it for others to use. That doesn't mean he's any kind of expert on the topic or a slave to all types of odd requests.

If you want to hire someone to code your ideas, put up some serious money over in the appropriate forum.

Yeah, but it does not hurt to ask either, does it? Some coders only want to share what they wrote for their needs and let that be the end of it. Others enjoy the challenge of new requests.

I have actualy gotten in touch with the coder and he no longer has access to vB to be able to develop or support, but may do something if he can get access which I am discussing with him. Additionally, he may give permission for other coders to pick up his mod and continue development.

The only thing not asking does is hinder further development.

[HCGB]

OK guys - I no longer have access to a vB license therefore there will be no enhancements made to this mod (unless someone else wants to take it over). I'm happy to check out any bugs (although none have been reported in over a year) but I won't be adding any additional features. As I said at the start, this is a picture viewer - it was never intended to be more than that.

BTW: some of the "feature requests" are already available in the basic vB install - take time to understand how vB works and you'll figure it out :) - I don't have the time to hold peoples hands I'm afraid :p

[Videx]

Yes please remember to mark the code as "reusable", otherwise the copyright cops won't let anyone release anything remotely resembling it.

[orangefive]

HCGB - great mod, installed and love it so thanks for your time and releasing this so people like me can use and enjoy it...

[NTMID8]

OK guys - I no longer have access to a vB license therefore there will be no enhancements made to this mod (unless someone else wants to take it over). I'm happy to check out any bugs (although none have been reported in over a year) but I won't be adding any additional features. As I said at the start, this is a picture viewer - it was never intended to be more than that.

Thank you, John.

So the code is marked re-usable now. Any other coders out there want to take a crack at looking at some of the requests and making this great mod even better?

I'm happy to check out any bugs (although none have been reported in over a year) but I won't be adding any additional features. As I said at the start, this is a picture viewer - it was never intended to be more than that.

BTW: some of the "feature requests" are already available in the basic vB install - take time to understand how vB works and you'll figure it out :) - I don't have the time to hold peoples hands I'm afraid :p

Well I am more than happy to let you use my license / test forum to improve this mod.
No offence to you, I have been using this mod on all my forums for the last one year and its a good mod.

But you have to understand that we already know how vBulletin works(most of it anyway) and the feature so to say I was asking isn't a feature at all. Its a enhancement to this mod so that all the images in the first page is shown as thumbnails instead of whatever the thumbnail size is set at our vbulletin ACP.

For example, if we set our thumbnails to something bigger then all the album preview images show up as big. What I was asking is to code your mod in a way so that it "DEPRECIATES" the forum thumbnail settings and uses its own thumbnail / picture preview settings.

I am not asking you to hold out hands here:erm:

//end rant



Yeah, but it does not hurt to ask either, does it? Some coders only want to share what they wrote for their needs and let that be the end of it. Others enjoy the challenge of new requests.

I have actualy gotten in touch with the coder and he no longer has access to vB to be able to develop or support, but may do something if he can get access which I am discussing with him. Additionally, he may give permission for other coders to pick up his mod and continue development.

The only thing not asking does is hinder further development.

Exactly.
Well, as I said these are just some of the basic features, maybe one or two. I am more than happy to give him permission to use my board to work on his mod. Otherwise I guess we'll have to look for another coder, Do you know mooff, the german guy who made the nivo slider mod? https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=267024 we could ask him too.

[HCGB]

I released this mod (and others) to try to put something back in return for the information and support given by others - I (like most other mod authors) don't get paid to do this (in fact only one out of the 1K users of this mod thought it was worth 5 bucks - not that I'm bothered as that wasn't the reason for releasing it ).

Rocketeer, you don't want this mod - what you want is a mod that looks like this but also does other stuff. It's a non-trivial job adding enhancements, the coding/debug/test cycle would be many hours work which would eat into the time I need to spend earning money. Why not use this code and do it yourself - the vB learning curve is probably around 6 months for a non-coder (it was for me)?

A said I'm more than happy for anyone to use the code to develop this mod further but that's as far as it goes.

[stud]

Thanks for everything you've done HCGB. This mod works just fine for what I need it for.

Anyone know if there is a vBexperience plugin around for this mod?

[MonkYZ]

Can somebody please help me with this huge problem? Every image that's larger than the fixed website size (1200 px width) is not beeing resized nor fitted into the page, expanding too much and breaking the website layout.

I will attach a screen with the issue. Thank you in advance!

the original author doesn't work on vBulletin anymore, this was a great mod, but he wont be able to support it much from due to stuff in his own life. now but the code is re usable so I asked another coder is he would kindly take it over for us. :)

Well, is bad to hear that. Anyway i kinda fixed that issue by replacing the <img with <img width="800px" in album_pictureview. Hope it helps you too. Unfortunatelly, the small images will also be resized...

[diettalk]

I'm having a permission's issue.

If you "private" (Only visible to contacts and moderators) an album. Anyone in your friends list cannot see the album (or pictures in it) from the "gallery" link. But you can go to the person's forum profile, you can view the album (and pictures) there.

[Captainhilts]

This sounds amazing. Is there a version that works on vB4.1.5?

[Valerio]

Work fine on 4.1.5 pl1

[TheHellrider]

Installed version 109 and looks frigging awesome. THANKS!

It does work in Chrome.

Error 310 (net::ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS): There were too many redirects.

That is nothing to do with this mod, it is either your computer setup or your Google Chrome setup.

Try searching the error in Google and you'll find some solutions.

[The Rocketeer]

Can any one please update this and add a option to set the gallery thumbnail widths separably than the forum image width's settings. ?

[Light Peak]

hello, does this support multiple users (eg. let users have their own gallery and create their own album) like PhotoPost (http://www.photopost.com/)?

[k6rikko]

Hi all :) i need your help sorry <.< But i dont find to change the font and background colors for the upload boxes. I have attached a picture its easier to explain what exact i mean .

Have many thanks

Great mod. We're using it as our Portfolio (with some minor customizations) over at vBTwist.com :up:

Today install in version 4.1.7 without any problems. :up:
Thanks for it

[FTDave]

Works great for me.

[kircherl]

Is there a translation into german?

[FTDave]

Thank you for the time you spent writing this hack.

[gonzek]

wonderful hack! :) THANK YOU!

One thing more - please look at attachment. How can I fix that the box with picture is too small?

http://se-center.info/picall.php?

[klawit]

well done! Thanks for that.

Mod works properly so far with vB 4.1.5 ... just marked as installed.

Thou I did some minor modifications:
- with the board having a thumbnail size set to 120px, there were text fragments vanishing down below the picture boxes (just like gonzek's attached picture shows), thus condensed the phrase "by: user on date" a little ... but still a tiny issue.
- added the full phrase in gallery_picallbit template as tooltip, so it can be viewed at least when running the mouse over each picture:
<img .... title="{vb:rawphrase album}: '{vb:raw picture.title}' ({vb:raw picture.username}, {vb:raw picture.picturedate})"/>

- changed the position within the navbar to have it close to the community menu (where the standard "album.php" is mentioned as option):
$template_hook[navbar_after_community]

Just some ideas ...

EDIT:
Found this workaround mentioned some pages earlier ...
=> https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=2018432&postcount=182
(190px work perfect for our board, when thumbnail size is set to 120 in admincp)

[spillage]

I've been using this Mod for quiet some time, and it has been performing well.

Yesterday I decided to add icons to the Tabs to pretty things up.
After much searching, I decided the place to put the icon code was here;
<a href="javascript://" class="popupctrl navtab"><img src="images/misc/Tab-Gallery.png" border="0" align="top" alt="" />&nbsp;
' . $vbphrase['gallery'] . '<img src="' . vB_Template_Runtime::fetchStyleVar('imgdir_misc') . '/arrow.png" align="' . vB_Template_Runtime::fetchStyleVar('right') . '" />
</a>
http://www.nscale.net/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=20343&d=1320106634


This worked great for all but IE9 users... they get the dropdown menu arrow wrapped onto a second line.
http://www.nscale.net/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=20327&d=1320073092

Using compatability mode makes things worse.
http://www.nscale.net/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=20328&d=1320073290

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

[spillage]

Gallery dropdown links not working from vBadvanced Links Directory.

Whilst working of the the Icon issue above, I found that the Gallery dorpdown links all gave a file not found error when on the LD page.

This is rectified by editing the Gallery plug-in code to include the full URL for each of the links.
Example;
<li><a href="/forums/albumall.php?' . $sess . '">' . $vbphrase['album_gallery'] . '</a></li>

This Mod (correct me if I'm wrong) just adds a Tab with a dropdown menu to access the standard vB Albums.
It is not a Gallery/Album unto itself.

Sort of wrong? It allows you to browse standard vbulletin galleries by name, or the contents of all gallery images. Basically another way to index everything.

I guess I should have expanded on the word "access", but I figured the long winded version is at the top of the page.
The point of my post was; this mod is not an album/gallery unto itself.

However, I just checked and 109 looks like it will work, so you're probably trying to import an older version. <dependency dependencytype="vbulletin" minversion="4.0.2" maxversion="4.9" />

Hi all,

I recently upgraded from 3.8.2 to 4.1.7. Version 3.8 had a Gallerymod installed. When I installed 4.1.7, which comes with a gallery preinstalled, it took all of the albums and photos automatically, which is a cool thing!

But, now the layout is screwed up a little. I get big thumbnails instead of small ones. Please check here:
http://www.ducati1.de/albumall.php?

Here?s another forum I run, which was a fresh install. Everything is how it should be. Same version, 4.1.7.

Does this plug-in have the capability of uploading multiple pictures? If not, does anyone know of any that allows multiple picture uploads that is free to members?

I sussed it out, I had to reassign the thumbnail size to every thumbnail in the database. It can be done through the admin CP.

how do I add a link to albums under the username and location in the thread display view?

Look in "update counters" under maintenance section of adminCP

OK I've re-assigned Thumbnails but it is didn't work :(

EDIT: It's ok, I hadn't got my thumbnail size set low enough in my settings and its looking better now.

But I'm still not sure why the outline boxes are so big and haven't found out how to fix it yet... Does anyone know how I can fix the size of the boxes?

[rbc1225]

I am running VB 4.1.7 with plugin 109 and the album gallery and picture gallery both give me errors not able to display this page when they are chosen. I deleted the php files and got the file not found error so I know they are being referenced correctly. I put them back an no luck. I am using permission 664 and I even tried 777 just to make sure that wasn't a problem. The last three choices on the tab work great but the first two, no luck.

Oh yeah they are useing VBAdvanced cmps 4.0.0 as well

[zapiy]

I want to make this more generic.. x amount of albums that any member can add to.

Is that possible?

Hi,

Loving this mod, however I have a question with regards to image sizes and filesizes. I have a problem in where I cannot for the life of me work out how to change the setting to enable bigger filesizes. I have attached a screen shot showing what I see when attempting to upload a photo using this gallery mod below:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2012/01/25.png

I like to have the JPG,JPEG filesize changed to 1MB as 29k is no good for showing photo's on a photography forum!

Anybody could please help me how to fix it. Please see picture. I am using 4.1.8 and downloaded gallery 109.A link would have been better than a picture. Anyway, my first wild guess would be that you have a style issue - the words are there, you just can't see them. Try it in at least 3 different web browsers using an unmodified default style.

Hi,

I have tried editing this and it has had no affect on the filesize limit changing from it's current 29k. Maybe this is only changeable by the coder of this mod?

Ahhhh never saw that "Search this Mod" button. Cool. Thanks for your response. I think I might just have to update everything to the latest version and see how it goes. I see this mod used on another board with Vbadvanced and the newest VB. Just haven't doen that yet, so a little leary about updating the first time. :) Thanks again

I wanted to give a bigger emphasis on the gallery, thus displaying the link in the main navbar, not in the "forum" sub-bar.

Here are the modifications in the navbar template :

Find:
{vb:raw template_hook.navtab_end}
Add Below:

<vb:if condition="!$vboptions['selectednavtab'] AND (THIS_SCRIPT == 'albumall' OR THIS_SCRIPT == 'album' OR THIS_SCRIPT == 'picall')">
<vb:if condition="$show['member']">
<li class="selected"><a class="navtab" href="albumall.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}">Gallery</a>
<ul class="floatcontainer">
<li><a href="picall.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}">Picture Gallery</a></li>
<li><a href="albumall.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}">Album Gallery</a></li>
<li><a href="album.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}do=latest">Latest Albums</a></li>
<li><a href="album.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}u={vb:raw userinfo.userid}">My Albums</a></li>
<li><a href="album.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}do=addalbum">Add Albums</a></li>
</ul>
<vb:else />
<li class="selected"><a class="navtab" href="albumall.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}">Gallery</a>
<ul class="floatcontainer">
<li><a href="picall.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}">Picture Gallery</a></li>
<li><a href="albumall.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}">Album Gallery</a></li>
<li><a href="album.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}do=latest">Latest Albums</a></li>
</ul>
</vb:if>
<vb:else />
<li><a class="navtab" href="albumall.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}" >Gallery</a>
</vb:if>


Find:

<vb:if condition="!$vboptions['selectednavtab'] AND THIS_SCRIPT != 'search'">

Replace With:
<vb:if condition="!$vboptions['selectednavtab'] AND THIS_SCRIPT != 'search' AND THIS_SCRIPT != 'albumall' AND THIS_SCRIPT != 'album' AND THIS_SCRIPT != 'picall'">

Done.

Note: the addition in navbar could be easily coded as a hook on navtab_end, not sure that the replacment could be achieved in a "clean" way (ie : not altering the navbar template)


Thank for this! That filled in a couple of gaps for me. I tired using the product that created the links in the NavTab but I didn't like how the the tab wasn't selected when you were in an album. Your replacement works perfectly. Expect that since I'm not using the What's New button, mine looks like this:

<vb:if condition="!$vboptions['selectednavtab'] AND THIS_SCRIPT != 'albumall' AND THIS_SCRIPT != 'album' AND THIS_SCRIPT != 'picall'">

Anyone have any reasons for or against putting those in an array instead of using so many ANDs? I thought an array would be the way to go but both work I guess.

I also attempted to create a plugin to add the new tab and links. I did them in the same style as you where after you click on the main tab, the other links are in the secondary navigation bar and not in a drop-down. This is more consistent with the rest of the tabs.

Here's the plugin I created. I'm extremely new to this so be easy on me.

Hook: process_templates_complete

$albumshowmember = '';
if ($show['member'])
{
$albumshowmember = ' <li><a href="album.php?' . $sess . '&u=' . $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] . '">' . $vbphrase['my_albums'] . '</a></li>
<li><a href="album.php?' . $sess . '&do=addalbum">' . $vbphrase['add_album'] . '</a></li>
';
}

$tabselected = '';
$tablinks = '';
if (THIS_SCRIPT == 'albumall' OR THIS_SCRIPT == 'album' OR THIS_SCRIPT == 'picall')
{
global $vbphrase, $vbulletin;
$vbulletin->options['selectedalbum']='selectalbum';
$tabselected = ' class="selected"';
$sess = $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl_q'];

$tablinks = ' <ul class="floatcontainer">
<li><a href="albumall.php?' . $sess . '">' . $vbphrase['album_gallery'] . '</a></li>
<li><a href="picall.php?' . $sess . '">' . $vbphrase['picture_gallery'] . '</a></li>
<li><a href="album.php?' . $sess . '&do=latest">' . $vbphrase['latest_albums'] . '</a></li>
'.$albumshowmember.'';

}
$template_hook[navtab_end] .= '<li'.$tabselected.'><a class="navtab" href="albumall.php?' . $sess . '">' . $vbphrase['gallery'] . '</a>'.$tablinks.'</li>' ;

I created that using a lot of trial and error and copy and pasting using your code, the code provided in this mod, and Lynne's [HOW TO - vB4] Create a New Tab in the navbar (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=226914). I really don't know how clean or efficient it is, but seems to work so far!

Ok so as was typing all of the above, I discovered that KW802 accomplished everything I was going for in a nice product (just a few posts later) here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?p=2199320#post2199320. It does the same thing but uses a template for the code instead of having all of it in the plugin itself.

Oh well. I guess I just posted another way to do it. For you programmers, is it better to have the code in a template that gets cached or have it all in the plugin like what I did?

A huge thanks to HCGB for creating this and to everyone else who has supported it.

[KProjects]

Anybody could please help me how to fix it. Please see picture. I am using 4.1.8 and downloaded gallery 109.

Did you figure this out?

Experiencing the same thing with vbulletin 4.1.10..

I'm using vbadvanced cmps version 4.1.3 - not getting the issue that vbadvanced 'links' users are getting.. I'm getting the blank navtab.

When I use the navbar one xml file, it does not show up in the forum navbar..

Also tested w/ default style... same thing.

[RustyF]

Will this plugin or any other plugin import meta data from Adobe Light Room?

I will install it any way as it is useful. I could really use something like that too though.

Thanks

Hi, I installed Gallery on my vb and everything works like it should, allows me to upload pics, create an album, goes thru the process of uploading pics, and then says that there are no new albums to show. If I click on the thumbnail of the album in the user section (which shows) it says there are no pictures to display.
please tell me what I have missed. maybe a check box that I didn't tick. any help appreciated.

Thanks

Hi, I installed Gallery on my vb and everything works like it should, allows me to upload pics, create an album, goes thru the process of uploading pics, and then says that there are no new albums to show.I think you're confused as to what this mod does - which is none of that. Right now probably the best thing you can do is uninstall this and any other mods and make sure your stock vb is working correctly.

PS When uninstalling mods be sure to manually delete any files you uploaded.

[Terminal-Access]

Awesome mod! iv morked as installed, rated 5 stars and nominated
Additionally i have just upgraded my forums to version 4.1.11 and wish to report this mod is working wonderfully with the new version.

Ok so the question is, " When is a gallery not a gallery " <-- When its this MOD??!!
So if I can clarify, your Mod is a gallery mod, which displays photos?? or Not??

and for some reason, now I have photos showing in Albums, which I can find from the gallery Tab............

so yes your reply has confused me. my next question was going to be how can i make the auto resize for displaying the pics bigger, but that will probably be a stupid question to ask here.

so Thanks for the mod, and even though I obviously have no idea what it does, it seems to be working for the most part. :erm:

[laebshade]

This addon groups all albums or pictures as a 'gallery'. It allows you to browse all of them rather than just the latest or recently updated (album.php?do=latest or album.php). It has no functionality for uploading pictures; vBulletin is still left to do that using album.php.

[bloodyred]

two words "Remote Linking"

[vetty]

How would I change the upload size limit to 1 MB?

I struggle to find where you change the upload size limit.

I'm having trouble with the speed of the mod. It loads every picture one by one, and takes what seems like forever to load the full page.

Have I done something wrong? It's the only page that loads slowly, so I dont think the problem is my server speed.

Any suggestions? :) Would be much appreciatet... If not, I think I'm gonna uninstall again.

[michaelbang]

Uninstalled for now

[G37Sam]

Installed and tested on vb 4.1.12

Works like a charm :)

How do i fix this... look at the gallery tab, how do i fix that arrow on top

http://mastiffmixed.com/forums/forum.php

i would like to either remove the arrow on top all together or put the arrow next to the menu . thanks :)

[Videx]

Any ideas? Since that looks nothing at all like mine, I would assume it's a custom style issue. Try it in the default style to confirm.

PS I'm a native English speaker and that's the first time in my life I have ever seen the word "educible". I had to look it up. If it's some translation program that added that one it needs to be fixed, because that ain't right.

[TransAmDan]

I've had some members saying the pictures in the Albums are too big. There are about 1200 pixels wide. Not huge, but where its on an HTML page, they have to scroll to the right to see the picture.
However on the CMS and forum attachments there is a pop up (is this called a light box) featre to view the images. Can this be implemented/ enabled to view the Album photos?

[Chadi]

I upgraded my custom skin to its 4.2.0 version. Then I reuploaded this plugin, which previously was working. Now its still not showing up anymore.

[Chadi]

This doesn't create the navbar menu automatically. It only works with navtab, however the drop down arrow is mis-aligned

[Chadi]

I hope someone can help me fix the drop down arrow :)

[Hippy]

I hope someone can help me fix the drop down arrow :)

add them with the nav manager in your admincp

[Chadi]

What should the links/codes be though? For example, "my albums" link code should be what?

[Hippy]

Check in the plugin. I'm built sure off hand.. pm me details is you need a hand

[Chadi]

Thanks, this is what the plugin shows but not sure how that translates for links

<li><a href="albumall.php?' . $sess . '">' . $vbphrase['album_gallery'] . '</a></li>
<li><a href="picall.php?' . $sess . '">' . $vbphrase['picture_gallery'] . '</a></li>
' . ($show['member'] ? '
<li><a href="album.php?' . $sess . '&do=latest">' . $vbphrase['latest_albums'] . '</a></li>
<li><a href="album.php?' . $sess . '&u=' . $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] . '">' . $vbphrase['my_albums'] . '</a></li>
<li><a href="album.php?' . $sess . '&do=addalbum">' . $vbphrase['add_album'] . '</a></li>' : '') . '

I am using this tab's mod: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=233629

How can I hook this Gallery mod into one of the configured tabs?

[Chadi]

Would appreciate help on adding the gallery links manually to drop down.

How would the below translate to a proper link?

Thanks, this is what the plugin shows but not sure how that translates for links

[quote]
<li><a href="album.php?' . $sess . '&u=' . $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] . '">' . $vbphrase['my_albums'] . '</a></li>

[Chadi]

Anyone know please?

[aberg]

Well you can do it easy bij the navigation menu
As example
Make a new TAB like Albums
after that make new links

album.php?do=latest - Last Albums

albumall.php? - All Albums

album.php{session.sessionurl_q} - My Albums

album.php?do=addalbum - Add Album

picall.php? - Photogallery

[Chadi]

Your my albums method is not working for me though, not sure why

http://www.talkjesus.com/album.php{session.sessionurl_q}

Just redirects to home page.

Using Tabs vbSoporte mod

[aberg]

I think with the new version Vbulletin you can uninstall Using Tabs vbSoporte mod and use the built in navigation menu from Vbulletin.
The {session.sessionurl_q} is a command what you can use in the navigation menu

[Chadi]

You can't add drop down menu options

[gpinjason]

I just installed this, and its working great using the vB Navigation manager on 4.2.0, but when viewing All Albums or Photo Gallery, the "selected" tab moves back to Forum, instead of staying on Album. Does anyone know where to add the "THIS_SCRIPT" code to keep the Album tab selected when selecting these options?

Set Append parent tab id to yes on the links and the tab to I believe

[gpinjason]

Thanks Hippy! Although that didn't work completely, it did help point me in the right direction!

the links themselves don't have the option to append tab id. so I just went to the parent tab, got the tab id and on the links that needed it to show selected, I added ?tabid=xx to the end of the url.. works great!

[Hippy]

Right that's part of Andreas mod..
Glad you got it tho

[muffel]

I have the same problem. I want to mark the new "Album-Tab" as active, when clicked on any link in this pop-down-menu.

Facing this weird issue where there is no album cover on some albums. Is this normal? If so, looks bad. Can the first uploaded pic to that album be set as default until member changes it to something else?

I believe that's just part of vBulletin's Album software.. if the user doesn't select a picture for the album cover, there is no default..

what I did as admin was went in and selected a photo for the cover.

[Smile :-)]

can someone confirm if this modification works with vBulletin 4.2.0?

[Alibass]

yes it does...

[zerious]

Hi,

ich have the problem that the original bulletin gallery URL looks like gallery/album.php and if I click on "my albums" in the nav bar the url is gallery/album-1.php. Is there a way to edit the add-on URL structure to prevent duplicate image content?

Is it also possible to change the album and image urls "albumall.php" and "pic all.php"?

[Jonathan81]

I installed it into the navbar, however I cannot edit the navbar template to move the menu "Gallery" to another position, it's not in this template. Any advice how to put that to another position, let's say right behind Calendar and before Community?

Thanks a lot!

Never mind, sorry. I found the template_hook in the plugin. Thanks!

How exactly does this work? I'd like to move the Gallery tab as well.

diable the default button in the plugin and use the navagation manager built into vb4.2

[Videx]

Where can i find the folder withe the photosI tried to answer this earlier today but got confused with all the different storage locations for different items in vb. If nobody else comes up with a definitive answer, try searching at vb.com. Note that this mod doesn't change the storage location, so it's wherever you placed it originally.

I still suspect the path is shown at AdminCP>Attachments>Attachment storage type.

I don't have these pages:

It's possible to make a porting from "all albums" (a plug-in about albums)

[turbosatan]

i would also like to know about how to make this properly replace the all albums plugin

is there a simple rewrite rule we can add to vbseo in order to make it redirect all items to this plugin?

[JazzleBug]

I, too, am interested in importing from the All Albums plugin...

[Cobro]

Is it possible to have private album or password protected ?
So only visable to the creator of the album ?

Installed and MOTM

Thank you for this plugin keep up the good work

[JhonDoz]

But it need permission while Google index these pictures, for example if Google spiders comee to our site an d view these pictures it need register so my question:
From where set this permission to allow that unregistered and spiders view pictures without register.

[datoneer]

[datoneer]

[ringnews24]

I have uploaded 100 photos and it wont let me add any more.

I went to CP User - User Album options and updated the number of photos allowed per album.

What counter do I have to update to allow the change?

[littlebigdunc]

Does this change the resolution and file sizes? And can you set usergroup permitions?

Weird, cuz i got nothing.. absolutely nothing, no tab, no bar, no options, nothing.! lol

You don't have it installed in your forum root correctly. As I mentioned before it works great. :up:

Don't think that just because it works for you that everything you use is going to work for everyone else.. we all have different boards, with different styles, etc. so thanks for the help, but its not really helpful.

Also, I have dbl checked because sh*t happens & no one is perfect, but even after i double checked yup it is installed in the forum root, & there is NOTHING on my navbar (or a navtab), or in my options or anywhere else.. EXCEPT that picall.php & albumall.php do work, so i just made my own tabs, & links.

Well mate what can I say, you've been a member of this site since 07 and you can plainly see this mod has not been updated in 2 years. Sometimes the best of mods do not work straight out of the box and you have to tweak to your site to make them work. But all said and done the mod does what it says it does and even on the last release of 4.2PL3

[Gamelobby]

I'm sure it does, & that is why i was asking what might need to be tweeked.
But saying ""It works fine" isn't very helpful. lol

Your original reply shows no asking for help and was not very self explanatory. Saying I've got nothing makes it a little hard figured out your problem and usually when you say you have nothing it's because you did not install in the forums root directory.

[Chadi]

Having this weird issue. Noticed many pics not showing up (replicated on 2 different skins and Chrome and IE10). Using vbulletin 4.2.0

Anyone know what might cause this?

another issue is the navtab/navbar plugin for the menu. Drop down is transparent and mis-aligned as you can see

[fxdigi-cash]

great mod. works on vb4.2 fine.

[RichieBoy67]

It was a vBSEO problem and I have remedy it.

Thanks.

Nice for you that you have a remedy but how about posting it for everyone else??

Thanks :)

Hi everyone. I know this has been asked a few times, but I have never seen a answer to the problem. I am using vb4.2. I installed the program but the first two tabs "Album Gallery" and "Picture Gallery" Don't work. I get the following error message: 404 Error File Not Found

Can anyone please help me with this? I uploaded the "upload" file into my root directory. Is this the right place? Is this different that the forum root? I am new to this.It should be different, but it depends how the site is constructed. Regardless, forum root is the folder with showthread.php in it.

Thanks Videx for your help and for the showing me the link for beginners. That will come in useful.

I finally found what I was doing wrong. I was trying to upload the "upload" file as one file. After installing just the Albumall.php and Picall.php files by themself everything is working now.

Thanks again

[Pop's Stang]

Where to I go to edit the size of the thumbnails?

[Videx]

Where to I go to edit the size of the thumbnails?Who knows. Start with the "Search this mod" in the upper right. You can try the manual (http://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/), but otherwise get used to doing lots of searches at both vb.com and vb.org for all kinds of answers.

Forget that , just worked it out ! Doh!!

Works out of the box!
Dont know why this is not in vBulletin out of the box in the first place tho!

Thank you to the author of this mod!

[guzziwa]

I'm using 4.2.0 PL3. Couldn't get the navbar to display the gallery drop down. Took me a while but it's fixed with one line.

Prior to adding product-gallery_navbar-100.xml, edit the xml and change the name of the template hook to "navbar_after_links" instead of "navbar_after_getnew".

Awesome mod by the way.

[K4GAP]

I have to thank you sooo much for this. The one thing I was missing on my site was an easily assessable photo gallery.
