I'm going to hate to have my gallery and foum have different user bases, but this bridge or whatever is having cookie problems for me, so bad I can't always log-in, and when i do it doesn't stay logged-in.
|
Well, hope this isn't a problem, i compared 1.7.1 hack with 1.7.2 files, this is the result, isn't the same as in 1.7.2 release by mtha, so make sure you save a copy in case you don't like how this works.
So far i don't have more complains about system kicking people out after a while. But i don't know, i think something is missing, and didn't attach login template cause i can't make it redirect to 4images. Don't know why, but the new release by mtha isn't working for me. :( |
*** Warning, important security hole fix ***
Since there's a sql injection security issue in sessions.php of 4images 1.7.1/1.7.2, V@no from 4images has also made an extra fix for the vBulletin users because they're also affected, even if the code to change on the 4images website seems to be not in the modified sessions.php the hole is in there in another line... My gallery was affected and got sql injected by some spambots, so I think it's good for you to know that :) Find: Code:
function get_session_id() { Code:
function get_session_id() { |
Ok, thanks.
edited and works without any problems. :up: |
Does it works with vBulletin 3.6 BETA ?
|
Hi, I am working with 4images 1.7.2 and vBulletin 3.5.4
One of the changes in sessions.php is define('ALBUM_FOLDER','/album/'); //Your Album Folder WITH trailing slash Does this mean the root of 4images gallery? I have installed 4images at the root (www.mydomain.com). So would I need to change that to(?): define('ALBUM_FOLDER','http://www.mydomain.com/'); //Your Album Folder WITH trailing slash Also, for constants.php it has define('SCRIPT_URL', 'http://www.YOURWEBSITE.org/album'); //no trailing slash So would I need to make that(?): define('SCRIPT_URL', 'http://www.mydomain.com'); //no trailing slash Since my 4images gallery is installed at www.mydomain.com Thank you for your time. |

u.u i gave up with 4images... i really love it, but it's not the best to work with vB.
|
Hrm, any tests available with vB 3.5 and 4images 1.7.3 or even vB 3.6 and 4images 1.7.3 yet?
Would like to know if it works before I update at least to 1.7.3 which is recommended by 4homepages because of the fixed security holes and bugs... |
Dear all,
Even though that I like 4images alot (I like it much more than most other script), I need to move to a different album management, that fit better with our website (not because of the intergration). Besides, I dont really have much time spending on this, so, if there is anyone who is inspired enough by this hack, and by 4images, can take care of the intergration, and give support, that would really be great. I try the best of what I can do, but I cant promise much Thank you very much for all of your supports by using the intergration. mtha. PS. If no one want to work on the matter, I promise I will clean up the code, and change the way the integration work, so that it might work better. |
Does it works with vBulletin 3.6 BETA ?
|
Thx mtha!
Great work! |
Anyone using/tryed it with 4images 1.7.3 yet?
Thanks anyway for your good work mtha :) |
Allright Ill venture into these here forums and post a question. Be kind :confused: How should I link to the galleries from the forums and maintain the session info? I made a href on my navbar in VB to point over to 4images but it says Im not logged in. Im REALLY sorry if this has been answered - Im very tired and have been searching for some time. I usually find the answers I need here and thats why I dont post much. Thanks in advance!
|
Making slow progress - Ive been able to determine that new users seem to work fine but existing VB users dont get "passed" over to my image gallery.
|
Well now all users are working - perhaps I am plagued by the timout issues others were having? (both of my sessions timeout at 900 sec)
*edit* Yep - timeout issues for sure - I get logged out at random times - sometimes after only 2-3 minutes - sometimes there are no issues at all.. |
I've had the same issues with the login system as many people here.
When I went to the 4images page it would recognize the users logged into the forum and display them on the bottom of the page, but I would not be logged into 4images itself. Because of that it also didn't display the admin control panel link for me, and when I went to the admin index.php file manually, it asked me to login, after which I got reverted to the forum home page and was still not logged into 4images. I discovered that I had changed the cookie prefix when installing VB, so after I edited the configuration part in sessions.php to the correct Vbulletin cookie prefix as it is listed in your config.php file for Vbulletin, it worked great. No more login issues and control panel link shows up. I have the session timeout set to 1800, but I really don't think it matters much as long as both the vbulletin and 4images timeout are the same. Hope this helps anyone. |
Anyone here who has tested it with vB 3.6?
|
anyone use this with Vb3.6 and 1.7.3? :)
|
I've upgraded my board to vB 3.6 yesterday, it seems to work with vB 3.6 and 1.7.2. The sessions.php from 1.7.3 differs alot with the one used in this hack, so I don't think that this would work.
You should apply all security patches in the 4homepages forum, the developers of 4images, then your 1.7.2 install is also secured, so you can continue using 1.7.2 until mtha releases a new version. |
Hey has anyone got a random image module to work with VBA and the new version of 4images?
I want to get images from 4images into the right hand side of page index. I can confirm that it does work with 3.6 and 1.7.3 |
VViper - you can confirm this hack works on 3.6 and 1.7.3? Thanks
|
Yes works a treat. Be sure to make the changes to global.php as per the latest security bulletin though.
|
I'm currently running vB 3.6.1 and 4images 1.7.2 with the latest security fixes from the 4homepages website, everything seems to work fine :)
The sessions.php from plain 1.7.2 and plain 1.7.3 are way different, thus I didn't try to use 1.7.3 with the old 1.7.2 sessions.php because I want to avoid driving into problems. A 1.7.2 install with the security fixes applied is considered to be as safe as the actual 1.7.3 by the developers, so I'll stick to 1.7.2 until mtha comes up with a new, fixed hack version for 1.7.3. |
I love 4 images and so do the members.
hey has anyone got a method for pulling in random images from the gallery into Vbadvanced? |
Maybe this can be useful for you:
http://www.4homepages.de/forum/index.php?topic=1020.0 Creating a new left or right-sided block and adding that code *could* work, if you're going to check that out let me know if it works, if not I'll try it for myself in my test board, maybe we can release this as a sub-mod then :) |
I see you guys are talkin about getting some random images onto your forum pages, but I want to get my like 5 latest gallery submissions to appear on near the top of the index page of my forum... any ideas?? or atleast 1..
|
OK it appears to be working for me! I upgraded the boards to 3.6.1 and did a fresh install of 4images. I installed 1.7.3 because I couldnt find anywhere to download old versions of 1.7.2. Thanks for everyones help. If anything changes I will post here.
|
I had a few random logout occurences but I changed the logout for 4images to 0 and left Vbulletin at 1800 and it seems to be working great.
|
Sometimes I've also had the problem that I was logged in in my Forums and logged out in my Gallery, even re-login to vBulletin didn't help then.
In that case simply close your site and clear ALL your cookies and your browser cache, then go back to your site and login, now the gallery should recognize you again ;) |

1) Download the attached random.php (I've modified the one from that mod a bit to fit with vBAdvanced). Edit it and change: PHP Code:
2) Create a new template called adv_portal_gallery and put the following content into it (Don't forget to change ./4images/ to your 4images path: Code:
<tr> Enter the following data into the fields:
You may now use the following variables in your template: $total_images - The total number of images in your 4images gallery $image_id - The ID of the random image $cat_id - The category of the random image $image_name - The name of the random image $image_comments - The number of comments made for the random image $thumb_src - The link to the random thumbnail file See also the attached screenshot, it works fine for me :) |
If you are interested in SEOing your Gallery and to integrate it into your vBSEO Sitemap you should first install the 4images SEO mod and then download my small addon for the vBSEO sitemap
|
this mod no work with 4images 1.7.3? i only have 1.7.3 and i dont found 1.7.2 version
|
I have not tested it for myself, but I also dislike that 4homepages doesn't offer an archive to find older versions.
Others said that they've confirmed that it works with 1.7.3 aswell, so just give it a try :) |
I already test this mod with 4iamges 1.7.4 it does not work fine. any update
|
Yes a fix for 3.6.4 would be nice.
|
It works fine with vBulletin 3.6.4 and 4images 1.7.2, so I would recommend you to use 4images 1.7.2 for now - however, don't forget to apply all the security fixes if you want to use 1.7.2! You can find them on the 4homepages website.
I don't know what's going on with this hack in the future but for now it seems mtha doesn't have the time to active develop and support it at the very moment, we have to be patient for now and I hope aswell as you to see a new version for this as soon as possible. |
Please give an update for 4images 1.7.4 with VB 3.6.4.
There is no point in going back to older versions of 4images considering the security problem. ..and after all I had bought VB considering this hack would be there ........ |
@ mtha: Please give us an update to work with 4images 1.7.4
and and guide how to use vbulletin 3.6.4 with 4images 1.7.4 would be great too. Please! |
