the reason the coder got put there was cos i made a simple mod once and thats all

and this code is not tremendous work my dear sir, once again its a rip off

if i worked with joomla im sure i would be able to see whats on and what not....same as when u use any system - like here on vB if u ask people who have been around how to add a custom page, they will be able to tell u

but if u ask an outsider he will probably think its a huge task..

same way in joomla really - making components and mambots etc etc all have specific guidelines, all u have to do is follow the convention and add ur custom code in there

once again i didnt mean to offend u really
but i still think this guy did rip things off othr pages including dynamic drive
http://dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex17/tabcontent.htm

my main point is that if this guy had coded these things from scratch and was selling them, then i would applaud him for this great work.
but the fact is he took someone elses work, and made it 'workable' with joomla, thats all. Thats why I am against it really.

anyways in the interest of preserving the peace and also not spoiling this entire thread arguing let us call it peace and go our ways - see u around
aku

keep it out of the forums guys

FYI I have joomla installed on my site, I paid for this hack like everyone else. I was impressed by the interaction it provided, allowing you to pick and choose which content to include in the slideshow, or to even add outside articles.

Vbulletin being my main site I decided to port it. The only difference between his and mine, mine is fully automated, where as his you must select from joomla's content, in a convenient manner.

After I ported it, I requested and was given permission by vb.org to share it here. I don't make a dime out of it and I will not allow someone to call someone I know and respect a thief.

I have tons of nice mods on my site and was getting ready to release them little by little. Really guys like you turn coders off.

i never said ur were making money off it
but that guy sure is the next bill gates lol

Any way to limit the queries on this--maybe a cache of some sort? If I display 8 articles, it adds 8 queries.

Well this is great, instead of getting some support after i payed the 20 bux, i see 2 guys arguiing.

thanks ! ...After all this maybe is a ripoff.

if ur wanting support for the module itself u have to ask the joomla guys

Lionel only made the add on which integrates it for vB, so dont blame him

we may be fighting but we aint enemies, just had a disagreement thats all

i have all the paths set correctly but i'm recieving this error :

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /modules/slideshow.php on line 257

solution : go to slideshow.php -> edit $forumid=array(xx); -> place the id of the forum you want to pull from.
then , go to the forum you want to pull from, add an image by using html or the attachment system.
you should see the image on the cmps page(s)

side note: for those who have the ignorance and claim he is making money. what DOES or how DOES this matter?!! As we all see, he made the modifcation for the community. By claiming his is making money, you are only showing how ignorant you are rather than thanking him for time spent on making this hack then releasing it to the COMMUNITY. isn't that what matters? helping out the community?!

yes it does matter because this is like taking all the vB mods and then modifying them for use with IPB or PHPBB and then selling them
so the ignorance is ur own

Who is the thief? You took the guy's code, removed his copyrights and posted a pirated copy on another site and I had to remove my mod. Little moron like you don't even realize that part of my code is from his code and that I am using with permissions.

In any case, he has been alerted. You want to mess up with these Joomla guys? Watch them have your host take your server down for copyrights stealing

nope the version was simply the scriptlicious and moofx libraries with the css
lol
so when he takes someone elses code its ok - but when it happens to him its not right yea?

his 'mod' is nothing except a stolen code made to work with joomla - if it was free then it would be perfectly ok - but he is selling someone elses work
u can deny the truth but its true :)

anyways the free slideshow is already available since it is free to begin with and if the 'joomla guys' can prove scriptlicious and moofx are their copyrighted codes then we will see lol
so tough luck on that

You post it here and I'll make sure you get banned for being a thief.

<link removed>
have fun comparing it to
http://smoothslideshow.jondesign.net/

I took my mod down. 90% of the code I posted (including the digits) is from the commercial addon. All I did was to adapt it to the vbulletin database.

I have been here since 2001 and I watched many talented coders disappeared thanks to parasites morons like you. And I am about to join their ranks.

Who will be the looser after all of us is gone? Certainly not me! I don't code for glory or for money. I am doing it just for fun and don't mind sharing.

I will always have nice mods on my site no matter what.

enough of name calling

those guys and their mod is not 'based' on moofx it IS moofx and that site I posted up

u just ask urself the question: how would u feel if u wrote a code free and released it under GPL free and then someone comes along, adapts it for usage with vB or joomla and then starts selling it.

It is morally incorrect.
That is the point I am trying to make and you just dont get it.
I dont support piracy at all but I am trying to make an important point here - that code released under GPL is free for usage but not for sale without the premission of the author which they do not have

I stand on my point because I believe in it and it makes me angry to see that someone elses work gets sold on a site with no credit given to them at all.

and thats the last post ill make cos arguing with u is useless.
I dont care if I get banned for standing up for what is RIGHT and defending someone elses code aginst leeches who stole it and started selling it!
The end
goodbye

Is this why you removed copyrights in mod_fpslideshow.js which is 100% his?

I call a thief a thief. No other names for it.

no my friend its not his
it is from the same slide show I posted up

but if I am proven wrong i would be the 1st to remove any links
in fact i will remove the file from my server just for the sake of argument

but seriously i dont have anything against u
but i do have something against people using other peoples codes in full or in part without their permission

So if you so sure of this, why don't you just report it to that other site instead of being a jackass? If it's not from him and he put his copyrights, that's serious. Equally serious for you to remove the evidence and try to make it pass for someone's else.

if u read on the mod site someone did face them with BOTH violations:
-stealing dynamic drive scripts
-stealing moofx and selling it

they posted a screenshot of the emails explaining that dynamic drive said 'its ok for them to use their scripts as donation ware' but the other people did not respond.

so how come the decided to go ahead with the realaese?

if it really is their code which they are selling then I challenge u to remove the mooFX files form it and see if the slide show works or not.

it wont
and that is my point - that is NOT their work and they are selling it

its like taking part of joomla and then using it to produce ur own portal software

anyways ive had enough of arguing, so ill leave u with that to think about
please do

and peace to u - honestly if i have caused u anger and hurt my apologies, I never meant to fight with u - it all started out because I was truly TRULY shocked that those guys were selling scripts which are released under GPL license.

and I still truly believe what they are doing is wrong - but that is where we differ in our opinions and I guess it will stay that way.

So for the sake of preserving peace in the vB community I will stop arguing (even though I know ill be tempted to reply)

I believe what I say is right - u believe what u say is correct - so lets leave it at that.

That was wise for you to have taken the pirated zip down.

akulion if you believe thta js is stolen why don't you go over to the commercial site and try to mess with them and leave this thread clean ?

This thread is for support requests and you totally hijacked the thread with your nonsense posts.

totally agree

im amazed this has gone on as far as it has

mod is good but lets leave it clean people...................

yea i agree to this thread has been disrupted enough
the mods should remove all the off topic discussions
sorry about that guys, I guess we just got carried away in the emotions

akulion, seriously pissed at ya for wasting two pages with that hijack nonsense!! boo!

lionel... great hack. thanks! ! ignoring is teh best way to stop the flow. silent majority loves the hack. ;)

back to the program...

bump!!

any tips for using this as a vbadvance cmps module?

Grendel, This is a Cmps addon.

Guys i am starting to get nuts here, i get this error when i use forumid that are superior to 99 ??

is it possible ?

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /modules/slideshow.php on line 257

Well if my conclusion isn't right. Why is it i don't get this error on other forums ?

You need to make sure that the selected forum has images in there and that unregistered can view them.

Lionel,

I saw the demo on your site. Some of the pic look very pixelated, is it because of the incorrect dimension of the pic ?

What is the best way to show pics in its best form ?

It's because they are putting small images in there. I have set my width at 396 and best size in that case should have been 400 or higher.

yup please check here : http://www.maroceve.com/forums/evene...rouz-senz.html

totally viewable by unregistred

I don't understand your setup. That image does not appear to belong to showthread as I see the pagenav below it.

Hmm can it be because of my Calendar addon ? it is a hack that allows a forum to be linked to a calendar.

it is this hack : https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...hlight=vbevent

I have the calendar addon, but I don't use that in my rotation. The image that you put in there was not an uploaded image (unless you managed to install the upload attachments in calendar hack like I did). In any case, that image belongs to events not showthread. Try to upload it in the first post of showthread and you'll be fine.

Oh so your saying "linked" images won't work with your hack ? Your saying i need to "UPLOAD it as an attachment" ??

fyi : i have highslide " so my attachment system is not default" installed, will that affect the hack too ?

Going to try to install this calendar attachment hack.

edit : no 3.6 attachment calendar hack available :(

#1.-Stay away from the calendar attachment hack unless you know what you are doing. It was done for 3.07 and requires extensive file edits to make it work for 3.60 (few functions, newattachment.php, attachment.php, showthread.php and some javascript in clientscript. It can mess you up big time.

#2.-My hack is pulling from showthread table, so it will not care about attachmens in events if you managed to install that hack, unless you modify it.

#3.-The hack is pulling directly from database and it does not use any vb attachment template, so I don't see how highslide (which I don't use) could affect that.

Please read the first post for instructions again: The hack pulls the last uploaded images in showtread.

well, i guess my only solution is to pull from a new forum that i am going to create specifically for your hack.

Problem now is that if someone clicks on a slide it will take them to this forum. How can i totally disable the area where there is all the text and links ...i m just going to use this as a basic slideshow then ...Until someone ports the calendar attachment plugin...

btw here is where i am testing your hack : http://www.maroceve.com/index.php?page=test

solution is, right after you add an event, reserve the first post so you could upload that image in there too.

I also see that you are using the pirated version. You don't have the extra navigation and it's creating you all sort of javascript errors. Why am I wasting my time?

Hmmm good idea...let me try this then.

what pirated edition ?

I have purchased the script...I really don't appreciate being called a pirate...and i have proof ..I pmed you the email i received from joomla ...

If there is bugs or errors ...it might be because my main proffesion is not a coder...i just use tutorials ...

then you are using the wrong slideshow.php which was conceived to counter the pirated version. Request the correct one to the site where you purchased it. I had forwarded him the full hack.
