Random Images(from 4image gallery) on FORUMHOME

[deathemperor]

*UPDATE: 5/31/2005, change the number of pictures to be displayed, fix the instructions file.


I made this for my own need and since there're no working hacks to display random images from 4images gallery on forumhome, I think.


This hack is credited to Nicky(http://www.nicky.net) @ 4images.de
I made it to work with vbulletin3.0 in template.


Modifications:
- forums/index.php
- new template: random_pic



=============================================
Requirements:
=============================================

- vBulletin 3.0.x (http://www.vbulletin.com/) installed and working
- 4images 1.7 (http://www.4homepages.de/) fresh installed and working
- 4images and vBulletin are installed to use the SAME database
- 4images Gallery 1.7 + vB 3.0.x hack (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=66335)

dang, for a second i thought this was a mod for random image attachments from the forums on forumhome.

good mod though, this will come useful for people that use 4images and vb together.

doesnt work with 3.0.3

[deathemperor]

impossible since I'm running it on my vb3.0.3 board perfectly, and you know that screenshot was taken from there.

I wonder what the problem is.

How did you get it to appear on CMPS?

How did you get it to appear on CMPS?
Create a module for it. same script, make it modulized, add to module folder, add module, then you have it in CMPS

deathemperor. you didnt state the template name in your install file.

[Allan]

[ZGeek]

Does anyone know how to exclude certain galleries from being displayed in the random image?

[Clayton]

[deathemperor]
