For my clarity ... :)

I donated via PayPal and have run y2ksw's for many many years. It's been fantastic and one of the most popular add-ons our members comment on.

My question ... since it's been running for so long and we already have thousands of PB pics imported onto our server, am I correct in assuming that this code change permits members to continue IMG'ing PB pics and they will still import?

In other words, this code fix works around PB's block and returns us to the status quo of what it used to be?

Thanks for any feedback?

Regards,
Doug

Edit: I don't have a line counter in my editor, so what does the code that appears before this look like so I'm sure to put this in the right place, if I do i... thanks ..

Doug, the PB fix will work until such time as they find a means to obfusticate it again.

In the iei_cron.php file look for the following code and add the PB code directly after it:

Code:

@curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_REFERER, IEI_BBURL);

In the long run it would assist you greatly if you used something like Notepad++ to edit your files with: https://notepad-plus-plus.org/

Thank you partner.... :)

Appreciate the quick response .. :up:

ps: I'm on a MacBook Pro OSX operating system ..

pss: Ok, I've now inserted it for testing and it looks like this... seem like the right place?

Code:

  if(USE_CURL)

    {

        $ch = @curl_init($url);

        @curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_BINARYTRANSFER, 1);

        @curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);

        @curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FAILONERROR, 1);

        @curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);

        @curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, IEI_CONNECTTIMEOUT);

        @curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, IEI_CURL_TIMEOUT);

        @curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_REFERER, IEI_BBURL);

if (is_numeric(stripos($url, 'photobucket')))

    {

        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_REFERER, 'http://www.photobucket.com/');

    }

        //@curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, IEI_FORUMDOMAIN);

        $contents = @curl_exec($ch);

        @curl_close($ch);

    }

psss: Well I ran it anyway and it didn't crash (see pic), so I guess I have to wait now until I can get someone to try a PB pic, as I don't use their service...

Sooner or later they will elaborate more and will not accept only their base url as a referrer. Until then, this code modification should work.

You Sir, are a legend! (and so is IA1 for this remarkably simple fix!!)

It's ticking away nicely pulling images as we speak! I'm sitting on the edge of my seat watching it and testing images as they pull down to make sure they are continuing to work... LOVE IT!!

I like BBEdit on the Mac and Notepad++ on Windows. My old job used to use EM Editor which was great for very large files (1M+ lines files dumped from finance systems), but Notepad++ works fine for my coding needs.

Just a follow up and again, a huge thank you for this quick fix (for now)... :up:

It's working beautifully and being a research site for over 29,000 retired veterans, is extremely valuable to our members... much appreciated...

We've been using y2ksw's outstanding add-on for over 7 years and the accumulated amount of important Photo Bucket research pics that have been preserved (saved) by his mod over the years is measured in the 10's of thousands.

Your temporary fix allows that to continue with new pics, at least until Photo Bucket catches up with it. :)

Regards,
Doug

I think I am missing something real simple here.. but I am not finding a log entry for this mod. Does this not have logging functions, or am I missing where to enable it?

EDIT: Nevermind, i found it and it is logging now.

It's not set to log the cron action by default but it does write the imports (old_url - new_url) to a DB table called "iei_img"

All times are GMT. The time now is 09:02 PM.
