No vb 3.8 version? :(

Scandal, can you be so kind to add 3.8 also? :)

Scandal -- can you please share with us the solution you presented to LR? I'm still experiencing the blank page when I try to upload a photo. And I'm not using vB Suite, just regular old Forum 4.2.

Thanks!

I did everything and tried to import the xml and it gave me a warning message and it said it couldnt upload. And now my whole admin.cp looks completly different and i cant click on anything within it.
What happened?!?!?!

nvm i fixed it. i had to reupload my admincp file. somehow it got messed up

Hi there,

The solution was:

Open gallery.php and find:
add below:
But this should be fixed in the latest version.

Best regards

L.R.

Yeah, that's already there. Unfortunately, I guess it's a custom style issue for me.

This is a fantastic mod! I have one problem and one suggestion.

Major Problem: With a lot of attachments, the page load time and cpu/mysql usage, even for a single viewer, is way too long. This will destroy my server with lots of users if I make it live. It's obviously doing some serious mysql table scans of some kind. I have over 32,000 attachment images on this forum, which isn't THAT many. When I turn off attachments as a gallery, the page loads almost instant (6000+ pictures in member albums is no problem for it). It is MUCH slower on the gallery home page than it is on the individual attachment pages, even on the attachment pages with lots of pages are faster (going page by page -- they're slow, but not nearly as slow as the main page).

So What can be done to speed the query up? Are there some columns/tables I can index that are being scanned? Is there something in the code that can be changed? Perhaps at least for the homepage, it should cache every so often instead of scanning each time or the query can be limited to the past XX days. The gallery stats could at least be cached every hour/day since no pictures are displayed on the gallery home, it shouldn't take so long. In fact I could do without the stats if that helped, but it didn't (tried turning them off).

Feature Request: Obviously the software already is smart enough to show members attachments per forum section with the filter option.. What I'd really love to see is on the category pages (main gallery page), the option to have each forum section listed as a subsection of 'attachments.'' So it would look almost like the main forum page, but only be pictures. This is possible since you already created a filter, but it's not implemented. This would really be great and if we could limit it to only show certain forum sections it would be so amazing!! (for example, if I have a car forum, people could click on the corvette or porche subforum for only those attachment pictures... And the help/off-topic forums with attachments would not be shown at all).

Thank you!

There's a bug in the 'latest pictures' code.. When you change the number in the adminCP, it still shows 2 pages no matter how large or how many pictures.

I also noticed when I went to view "my albums," it showed me an album of another memebr (along with one of mine).

3.8 version please :)

Very cool mod, testing it now.

I'm trying to figure out the permissions functionality of this mod and the default galleries. When setting up the albums it shows that private albums are viewable by "contacts" and moderators. What is a contact? Is that synonymous with friends in the user profile?

I have a need for private albums for users that aren't viewable by others. That can be managed by the user themselves if the friends/contacts are the controlling item. Other than album access, what is the functionality of the friends/contacts?

Can you make vote for images in your gallery?

If I understand correctly, this has to do with vBulletin Albums functionality, not with vBGallery mod :)
I suggest you to try my other mod [AJAX] Thumbs Up? :up:

Thank you for this mod.

I have a question about headers, categories and sub-categories. If I create headers for Texas and New Mexico, then categories for Landscapes and Architecture in both of them, the selection list in the edit album function is nonsensical. It only displays the categories, not the header they fall under so I don't really know which one I am selecting.

I know I can use categories and then have sub-categories under them, but I don't have a way to keep users from selecting the category itself instead of the correct sub-category. Using the forum analogy, would it be possible to specify the category is "closed" so no albums can be added to it like we can specify a forum is closed in vB? Or maybe there is a different solution I'm not seeing?

How about an option to disable the display of empty sub-categories? The option adjusting the display of empty categories does not seem to affect sub-categories on my system.

Thanks

The breadcrumbs at the top of the page do not display the path to the category currently being looked at. Assume I have categories for Texas and New Mexico, then sub-categories for Landscapes and Architecture in both of them. When I am in the Texas category the breadcrumb trail shows Gallery > Texas, but if I am in the Landscapes sub-category the breadcrumb trail shows Gallery > Landscapes, rather than Gallery > Texas > Landscapes as expected. I also note the header is not included in the breadcrumbs so having multiple headers would also be missed in the breadcrumbs. Can this be fixed?

I must say I really like this mod. Thank you for creating it for us.

Is there a way to put latest comments to the vB sidebar?

And also putting a record in the latest activity stream would be useful.

If this mod would generate a RSS feed for latest images it would be great. Implement this feature, pretty please.

Something is odd.

It is showing the home page side bar, on the gallery page below the grid of albums/pictures.

does this mod work fine on vb4.2??I believe I installed it and had some issue with the ckeditor!! is that problem there till now??

Anyone know what may cause some pictures to have missing thumbnails?

If I click the link, it'll show the actual picture otherwise but when viewing in gallery, half the pictures are missing their thumbnails.

I'm using filesystem storage

Try to rebuild the thumbnails on admincp > Maintenance > Update counters > Rebuild Attachment Thumbnails :up:

Very nicely done. It appears that there is a problem with the galleryhome template and the sidebar. No big deal. I just disabled the sidebar which displays at the bottom

installed

The attachments gallery is nice, but we have been creating categories/albums in the attachment manager to help managing lots of images. Many of my users have thousands of images in attachment manager. We intend never to restrict that.

I was able to modify Cellariius' Photo Popup to treat the attachment categories as albums but I would really like to be able to manage the attachment categories inside this vB Gallery also.

I like the lightweight system with essentially just a catalog in the gallery and all the assets staying where they are. However I have about 3,000 pictures in more than 25 categories with a lot still uncategorized. It would be nice to have a better tool than attachment manager.

When I installed this on my test site, everything worked just fine. Wehn I moved it to the live site, the Forum Sidebar fell off the screen and went below. I wonder if your gallery template may not be using some critical stylevars?

The other small concern I have is a very long load time and overhead for the first load ot the gallery home.

I believe we are going to really love this mod and I will be happy to do whatever I can to help with improvements.

I copied the FORUMHOME template from my master style to GALLERYHOME for everything down to the body tag (except for the title). That fixed the problem with the sidebar. It now works just fine.

I have not tried to figure out exactly where the culprit was. I tried several smaller edits first without success.

Our users are interested in having pdf files in the gallery. I edited the uploads and added pdf to all the image type lists and that seemed to work just fine.

I wonder if the image type list could be an option in AdminCP Settings? That would be better than editing the code.

Sweet! THX

When I import the the .xml file using FileZilla it says No file uploaded and no local file found. I should import the cpnav_sc_gallery.xml right?

:confused: On my download it is called product-sc_gallery.xml. It is not uploaded with filezilla or any other ftp program, it is imported using admincp>plugins & products>manage products>add/import product. You do need to use your ftp program to upload the upload directory contents first.

Agreed, I have the same issue with 4.2.1. If there's a fix for it please post it up. In the meantime I'll just disable the sidebar.

I am also running 4.2.1. I described a fix for the problem in this post https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=147. You may consider it too reckless to try, but it worked for me.:)

I found another small problem in the lightbox.js file. Inside the file I found two incorrect image paths.

Specifically the paths in question are:

/images/loading.png
/images/close.png

and both produce a couple of broken images whenever the lightbox is used.

Our IT person successfully installed this mod. But when I go to the Admin CPanel and under vBGallery by Scandal Manage Categories, it says Error 404 - Not Found. Same with Add Category and List Albums.

I wanted to add another category. For now it's default to Uncategorized only. Please help

Nevermind. he got it. Thanks!

Anyone get the "Number of latest pictures" to display more than the default of 25? No matter what I set it to, it never displays more than 25.

Is there any way to display the part of the Gallery in the forum homepage? Like the first forum category is a display of latest photos.

Please HELP. I don't see any "Choose a Category" option in the vbGallery. http://www.roadtrucker.com/forum/alb...bum&albumid=10

I got it! :) lol. thanks.
