Had a look at the database. I fear, the per category setting is too complex to handle it within the limitated structures of this mod. That's the downside of supporting more than one product - it's not flexible enough to support everything for every product. The problem is: Though it would probably be possible to add an additional query to the config that detects whether there are original images or not - as soon as the user clicks on "show all my images", there will be problems.

Sorry, this mod will have to handle it either as allow it or disable it...

I installed the mod on two forum with vb 3.8.2, i used IE7 And Firefox, i have no error message, the photo popup windows open normally on both with all the photos in the popup but on one of the forum when you click on a photo nothing happend.

Understood, it was just something that I was pointing out could be different in different configurations. I typically would never want to insert the full size original image anyway as it would likely be too large for the forum and throw the screen out of whack. I just uploaded the most recent vbgallery config file to the server and will ask my members to test.

One other suggestion I have for this mod is that in the instance where the user has no photos uploaded in the Vbulletin Albums not only should it say no photos found, but it should also have a link to:

http://www.yourwebsitehere.net/album.php?do=addalbum

So the user could go "oh that's where I can upload a photo to insert into this message" otherwise if they aren't familiar with where the photo albums are they have to hunt around or ask, why not give them some pointers.

Likewise for vbulletin there should be the message that no photos are found but then also a link such as:

http://www.yoursitehere.net/gallery/upload.php?&c=

So the user can be taken to the vbgallery and start uploading to some category they choose.

As for the CND garage if they have no photos uploaded the link would depend on whether they had a car in the garage yet or not, so in that instance I would probably just suggest a link to the garage: http://www.yoursitehere.net/garage.php and let it go at that.

I suppose if you wanted to be more flexible you could make these links both optional and customizeable through your admincp options for this mod, let the admin decide whether or not to display "helper links" and if so what link they want for each (I would provide defaults which they could then change as needed).

I hope all that makes sense.

Last, but not least in the standard reply box rather than just the text that says My Pictures, there ought to be some sort of picture graphic above that text.

O.k., I explored some more and this problem seems to be connected with the use of vbSEO, and indeed it only happens in Firefox. Robi_Kanobi, if you're still around, can you confirm that you are using vbSEO (or some other sort of SEO-Solution?). Confirmation from anybody else will be appreciated, too, of course.

I'll see whether I can get this fixed.

I see the usefulness of such links, yes. They'll probably make it into some next release.

To get things in AdminCP not too confusing with all the products, I'll probably define a default setting in the config files that can then be changed if the need arises. I guess that most of the users will be happy with the standard upload page.

You can always insert the icon already shipped with that mod ;)

hi to all

sorry for my english

i'm newbie

i had just installed this product and made the modification. no problem

i work with vb 3.8.1 and photopost but when click on icona ,the message is this

"You have set the product "photopost" to use a different database than your forums. However, the script cannot connect to this other database. Please check your database settings.!

in photo_popup_config_photopost.php , i have this

"The values for the following settings can be found in Photopost Administration
// Center
// Full URL path to Gallery: http://www.yoursite/path/to/gallery/
//
$url_path = "http://news.tecnocomputer.it/forums/photopost/";
//
// Full URL path to Data Dir: http://www.yoursite/path/to/gallery/data/
// Look for this in PP-Administration->Global Options->URL to PhotoPost data directory
//
$data_dir = "http://news.tecnocomputer.it/forums/photopost/data/";
//
// Table prefix. pp_ is the default setting.
// You may have changed this on installation of Photopost Pro.
// Look for this in PP-Administration->Edit Config->PhotoPost Database Prefix
//
$db_prefix = "pp_";
//
// If you do not save medium sized images with Photopost Pro or want to disable
// medium image insertion for this product only, set this to TRUE;
//
$medium_override = FALSE;
//
// If you do allow albums selection in popup, but want to disable it for this
// product, set this to TRUE;
//
$album_override = FALSE;"

is it correct? thanks to all

It's probably not correct - else there would not be this error ;)

All the settings you pasted have nothing to do with database setup, tho. But that's where the error probably is. The database settings come right after the part you copied.

Do the following:

• find out whether you have your Photopost data in the same database as vBulletin.
• If this is the case, make sure line 49 reads "$other_db = FALSE;" (w/o the "). If this is now set to TRUE, this is most likely to cause your problem.
• If you indeed use another database for Photopost, set this variable to "TRUE" and make sure the settings that follow are correct.

thanks

now i have put FALSE like this

$medium_override = FALSE;
//
// If you do allow albums selection in popup, but want to disable it for this
// product, set this to TRUE;
//
$album_override = FALSE;
//
// ### If your vB and Photopost run from the same Database, ###
// ### skip the following. To use different database, set ###
// ### $pp_other_db to TRUE and fill in the variables ###
//
// Set to TRUE if using different database for vB and PP
$other_db = FALSE;
// Database Name
$db_name = "photopost";
// Database Host
$db_host = "localhost";
// Database Username
$db_user = "root";
// Database Password
$db_pass = "";

this is the error now

Database error in vBulletin 3.8.1:

As the error states: There is no table pp_categories in your database tcportal.

I'm sorry, but I cannot say what your database setup looks like - that's something you'll have to know ;).

Is the prefix "pp_" correct? Are you sure you installed Photopost into the same database as vBulletin (the one called "tcportal") - it does not seem to be there?
