Just one more question: does it take in consideration permissions like if the pictures in some albums are private and not public will they still show or will the hack respect the fact that they are private and only show them to the contacts and moderators?

Yes - only mods and admins can view private or profile thumbnails. This mod DOES allow guests to view thumbnails IF their user group permission canviewalbums is yes (same applies to all other usergroups). Guests will not be able to view the full size images (vB restriction?).

Awesome. Now all we need is picture categories. Would you consider to add this?

Seems to work fine on vb 3.8.3 BTW.

My members will probably like this, thanks.

Very Useful Mod. Thank You For Sharing It. :up:

One Important Thing I Just Noticed, (the same one I Posted on the Calendar Search Mod):

Guests Can Search Without Any Limit.

- How Can I Restrict Usergroups From Using the Searching Options (decide which ones Can Search and which ones Can't)? :confused:

I Appreciate Your Instructions to Limit Usergroups From Making Album (albumall.php) and Pictures (picall.php) Searches.

My Best Regards.

:)

See first post:
AdminCP->Usergroups->UserGroup Manager : Unregistered/Not Logged In : User Album Permissions Can View Albums

This controls who can view albums for each group. Disabling just the search function won't stop users browsing and viewing pictures through other members profile pages.

Thank you for sharing this.
This was just the missing piece of functionality that prevented me from using the built-in vBulletin-albums.

//edit: Very small aspect: Uncached template "gallery_picallbit"
//edit2: Another small piece: Is the Page-Title missing intentionally?

Guilty on the template - this mod was ported from the vb4 version which used a different image template.

The page title is missing intentionally (you can easily add it back in if you wish) - the space that would have been used by the title is used for the search functions. In general, I'm not keen on using valuable screen space to state the same thing on three successive lines (the page title is already in the breadcrumb AND on the search result header).

If you dont mind me asking, what is the difference besides search feature then all albums mod?

I used all_albums for several years - an excellent mod! However, it hadn't been updated for vb4 so I wrote a new mod for that and then ported it back to vb3.

This mod has a picture browser in addition to an album browser. Also better screen usage (IMHO:)) with multiple images per page and the search works on usernames and picture captions.
