Whenever someone uses any gallery page the who is online in the forum gets resetted :(

RE: MPC - not with vb3, with 4 images yes.. works great!

regarding my main problem, no im not using any subdomains..
i might have missed a bit of code somewhere. ill review the changes... or do them again

So the MPC doesnt work with the integration?

i dont think it interfers with it?.. not sure, but of a dumbass me :)

you got a demo of it? .. I want to see it working hehe....

I am really sorry guyz, for not replaying to this thread for the past couple of days. Lately, I have been busy with lots of other things, and I had to finish the new vB3 style for my new forums asap.

Thank you mtha for helping out, and I will be replying to all your posts tonight or tommorow.

its not public yet..
still need to sort out why i cant use the forum users table..
would save me alot of hassle!

Matrix,

Very cool. A couple questions for you as I try to decide how much hacking I want to attempt:

I see your footer on the gallery page is the same as the footer on the forum page. Did you just enter the html from the forum template into the gallery template? Or did you hack the gallery php with an if statement to include the template from vbulletin for the footer?

I'm trying to decide right now the best way of altering the 4images to fit my site. The 4images gallery has loose CSS control; all the table widths are defined in the html, which is kind of a pain. To go through and change everything to fit my site would require a global find/replace; I'm thinking if I am going to do that I might as well go through and just rewrite the html using <div> and css to control everything. Along those lines, I started thinking if I did that, I may as well use all the same css classes/ids as vbulletin, then just copy the <style> portion of the vbulletin html (vbulletin doesn't use an external style sheet) and paste it into style.css. That way if I change the look of my forum, I can just copy the css from there and paste it into 4images and be done with it.

However, if you've hacked the 4images php further to use templates from vbulletin like the header and footer, i'd love to know how you did it, as that would make things like adding the $navbar from vbulletin into 4images, etc. I'm thinking of having a look at how some of the other hacks here work and altering 4images, but I'm not much of a php person and am a bit intimidated.

anyway, thanks!

I think that this hack should stay in beta releases, as it isn't a full release worthy atm :/ (imho)
