Hey Max, Now I am impressed! I was under the assumption that your mod used the third party hosting! If I still used an older version of Vbulletin I would have grabbed this for sure! Nice work!

Thanks and yes, I just believe it is unnecessary for vB4.2.x since it has a better uploader and a better attachment display. Plus as in earlier versions, you can choose to store images in the file system instead of the database.

I first installed this to discourage members from using their own 3rd party photo hosting accounts - make it easier to post your photos - and it worked. I hardly ever see any hotlinked images that aren't on the same server as the board.

This is quite true. If it wasn't for the fact that my site has recently started building wikis for the games we play, we wouldn't need it either. But I installed vaultwiki, which has a SERIOUS lack of an easy means to upload and post images to the wiki without using external image hosts. This would do wonders for us.

So far I've managed to get the script installed and the button to appear on the editor in both the forum and the wiki, but I can't get the button to do anything. I can't find a template to just edit and add the code, though. I had to make plugins for ckeditor to do it.

HEY!

After hours of bashing my face on the keyboard trying to figure out why the button wasn't working, a friend of mine came online. He's a dev himself, so I tossed him the question to see if he can help me figure out why the button did nothing at all. Turns out all I had to do was remove the "onclick" event from the code. And now it works just fine!

Here is everything I did to make this work on VB 4.2.2 in the ckeditor

1. Install the image software as described above. I got the 1.6.5 download and it was working fine for me. All set up and good to go.

2. I followed the guide to add a button here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=278828, as was already pointed out.

3. And the thing that made it all work for me:
Replace
With
Aside from renaming all the 'celButtonDemo' into something else, that is all I can recall changing from his provided code. Didn't have much luck with changing where the button appeared. Replacing "Quote" with "Image" broke things for me.
I won't say the the setup is perfect, but it works. For example, by button is off center. Would love to know how to fix that.

Please, share modification

I'm not understanding what you want from me. Everything is already provided.

This tutorial definitely helped and I now have it up and running on my Vb4 forums, thank you Vintum !!!!

Max !!! help !!! I forgot my admin password and for some reason I can't recover my password .... it has a recover password link but nothing happens ....any clue?

PM sent.

Thank you Replicant !!! I actually got in, I was using the wrong username lol ...

Does anyone know how secure this option is? I'd love to install it on my board but run my own server and don't want to open it up to security risks...?

Thanks in advance,

Andy

I haven't had any issues, but yes it winds up being publicly accessible independently of the vB installation, if someone knows the link. As far as exploits, there are none that I know of or have heard of. You might ask the developer, at his site linked in the OP.
