Nope not. forums/index.php

You need to edit the cmps_index.php file that came w/ the CMPS.

I see you got it working. Looken Good. :D

Hello Guys,

can´t get this to work.

The windows appears, but no image at all! The gallery is in the folder gallery in the root; vbulletin in the folder vbulletin in the root. So what could be the reason?

Could anyone please post a step to step installation with a valid module for stupids, so i can work it through?

Thanks for your patient!

I'm up and running. I added the new gallery_random.php file this morning and made the file edits to display 4 vertical and it worked like a charm.

*** How to Install:


1)
Edit your vBadvanced CMPS: (not the forums/index.php)
- cmps_index.php file (you may have a different name)

By default:
$phrasegroups = array();
$specialtemplates = array();

Change to:
$phrasegroups = array('adv_gallery');
$specialtemplates = array('adv_gallery_opt','gallery_c_cache','gallery _ugroups');



2)
modules/gallery_random.php

// If you HASH out "$catlimit" images will pull from all categories.
// Useage: $catlimit = 3,5,10,30,70;

// $catlimit = 3;

// Enter 1 newest, 2 most viewed, 3 most comments, 4 highest rated, 5 random.
$galleryorderby = 5;


Added Extra Options
// If you DON'T want these fields to show then value = "0" (zerro)

$showfields['title'] = 0;
$showfields['description'] = 0;
$showfields['rating'] = 0;
$showfields['user'] = 0;
$showfields['dateline'] = 0;
$showfields['views'] = 0;
$showfields['dimensions'] = 0;
$showfields['filesize'] = 0;
$showfields['posts'] = 0;
$showfields['lastpost'] = 0;
$show['category'] = 0;


3)
AdminCP => vBa CMPS => Add Module => [PHP FILE]

Module Title: Image Gallery
Active: yes
Update All Pages: your choice
File to Include: gallery_random.php
Identifier: gallery_image
Templates Used: adv_portal_gallery_random
Clean File Output: no
Use Module Shell Template: yes
Title Row Colspan: image count (you choose a value)
Usergroups: you choose who
[SAVE]


4)
AdminCP => Styles & Templates => Style Manager => Use dropdown on Style => Add New Template

Product: vBulletin
Style: Choose Style
Title: adv_portal_gallery_random
Template: $randomimagebits

Save.


If you did not put the Module on all pages you need to:
AdminCP => vBa CMPS => Edit Pages => Choose the page => Edit => Modules Enabled => add Check to => Image Gallery

Save.

Woohoo :D

Hey - Top Posters (bottem center block) or a simple one of over all. What did ya need ?

Right, but the code you're saying to replace in the index file doesn't exist in my php file, so I'm not sure where to put it.

It's in mine

Here is a snip of whats @ vbadvanced.com :confused:

1)
Edit your vBadvanced CMPS: (not the forums/index.php)
- cmps_index.php file (you may have a different name)

By default:
$phrasegroups = array();
$specialtemplates = array();

Change to:
$phrasegroups = array('adv_gallery');
$specialtemplates = array('adv_gallery_opt','gallery_c_cache','gallery _ugroups');



-----
If these values $specialtemplates, $phrasegroups are not in the PHP file just add them.

If they are there just merge the data together.

EX:
$phrasegroups = array('somevalue','someother_value','adv_gallery') ;
$specialtemplates = array('somevalue','someother_value','adv_gallery_o pt','gallery_c_cache','gallery_ugroups');

Thanks for your very fast reply.

I did as decribed, the window/frame is visible on the left but with no image. So i did a fresh install with the same result.

If you would like to take a look: www.nikon-fotografie.de / left site / the last box.

Thanks!

Did you create the new template ?

AdminCP => Styles & Templates => Style Manager => Use dropdown on Style => Add New Template

Product: vBulletin
Style: Choose Style
Title: adv_portal_gallery_random
Template: $randomimagebits

The only thing inside the template is the value: $randomimagebits
