Nice work, AJR!!!

I've given AJR a PM concerning this, but I thought I'd post the problem here and I'd update whenever I found out what the solution was in case anyone else is having this same problem. :)

I run Photopost 4.5 [test] and a vBulletin 2.3.2 test board. On my test board, the strangest thing is happening when I install this -- the templates act as if they're displaying, but there's no data output to fill the tables from Photopost at all.. no images, no image info, notta. x.x;

To get a little more specific in detail, the tables display compressed -- as in, only a few pixels high. It's the effect of the tables not having any data to display other than {firstaltcolor} for a bg color or what have you.

I'm rather curious as to why this is. I've installed all of the file edits and, using the installer, also installed the templates. I think I've done everything in my power with this install.

Are there any others receiving this problem or am I just looney? ;) I think I'd better note here that I don't run vBPortal [so therefore I don't use the vBPortal header in the Photopost setup]. I think that may be important to know in the case that there's a function or something similiar that this hack would require in order to possibly display the data.


I'll play with reinstalling it fresh a little later on, but I wanted to see if this wasn't just my problem. And thanks AJR -- from the screenshots, this looks wonderful.

I had this same problem. What I found out that was when I installed the templates via the install script it did not insert some of the data for the templates. To work around this issue I exported my style and added the new templates to it with the style script in the download. I then uploaded the modified style and everything was fine.

Excellent! I'll try that a little later on! Thank you.

<EDIT>

This fix worked like a charm! Thank you thank you thank you. :)

I have the exact same problem. I did exactly as therisen did and pasted the new templates to the style script and uploaded it. I have one more task to complete... so my question is this... where do I find the "number of templates" indicator so that I can add 127 to the total?

thanks...

I'm putting the finishing touches on an integration hack for PhotoPost/vB:

http://www.photopostdev.com

should have that ready in the next day or so.

Sounds great... Does this mean I will have to uninstall this template hack? I like the look of photopostdev.com. If that's how PP integrates... then I say let's go for it. :)

I don't think so; the integration I did only requires two lines to be added to the vB side (one include and one variable insert in the template - two variable inserts if you want to seperate the features from the galleries like I did).

Awesome!

to anyone else reading this thread, I am still unable to get the PP tables to show. Where do I find this so-called "number of templates" indicator? I searched the manual with no luck.

At the top of the vbulletin.style file that vBulletin allows you to download, you'll find something similiar to:

2.3.2|||xx|||default|||xx|||22|||141|||{tableborde rcolor}||........

See the 141? In your file, it'll be different obviously, but add 127 to that number and boom, there you go. It's more than likely the higher number.

Atleast, that worked for me with no visible hiccups.

Remember to add your templates to the bottom of that file and upload.

Also, make sure you've uninstalled the templates already if you've tried installing them with the installer that comes with this hack.
