Imageshack & MEGAUPLOAD Uploader
 

Hack Support

This hack is now discontinued - this means that while it will remain available for download and use, there will be no further updates, nor will support be provided as the thread is no longer monitored. You can now check out the 3.8.x version of this hack, as it also works with v3.7.5, v3.6.12 (and maybe even earlier versions).

Please click Mark as Installed if you are using this hack.


NOTE: You can not change the language/text in either the Imageshack or MEGAUPLOAD embedded upload boxes as they are actually being hosted on their respective websites, and this hack can in NO way control that.

If you need support (they embed but don't upload, they are slow, etc), information (how they work, FAQ etc) in regards either of the embedded upload boxes, then you are best off checking out their respective websites, as I will not help you out there (you need to do the research yourself) - MEGAUPLOAD, Imageshack


vBulletin Version Compatibility

This hack can be used with v3.6.10 and v3.7.x. This has not been tested with earlier versions of v3.6.x, but should work.


What Does This Hack Do?

This is an update of my v3.6.x hack available here, with the added bonus of being able to upload files to MEGAUPLOAD.

The v3.6.x version of this hack has been listed on the official ImageShack's 3rd Party Tools page, and that links to the v3.8.x version of this hack - see ImageShack :: 3rdparty ::

This is an hack that adds the ability to upload image images to the Imageshack service and upload files to the MEGAUPLOAD service and be given a url to post in your posts to show your now uploaded file(s), it is available (if enabled) when creating a new thread, new post, editing a post, quick editing a post or doing a quick reply.

Both Imageshack and MEGAUPLOAD are controlled by the same permissions, but you can show one of them or both of them when creating a new thread, new post, editing a post, quick editing a post or doing a quick reply independently (via settings in AdminCP).

You can control the size and color of both the Imageshack (fully customisable) and MEGAUPLOAD (3 sizes and 6 colors) boxes from the AdminCP.

You do NOT need a premium account to upload using either Imageshack or MEGAUPLOAD.


NOTE 2: This hack works in total harmony with the latest version of Dannyloski's Photobucket Image Upload hack (Dannyloski, with my permission, used the base code of v3.6.x version of this hack to create his hack), so you can use Imageshack, MEGAUPLOAD and Photobucket all at the same time (if you choose to).

AdminCP settings for this hack available in vBulletin Options > Imageshack Image Upload.
Settings that can be changed are:

1. Usergroup permissions - which groups will see the Imageshack/MEGAUPLOAD Upload boxes
2. Choose which locations the Imageshack Image Upload box are displayed
3. Imageshack iFrame properties - size of the upload input field. The width, height and color (this setting will work instantly once the Imageshack developers fix this) of the iframe
4. Choose which locations the MEGAUPLOAD Uploader box are displayed
5. MEGAUPLOAD Embedded box properties - size and color of the embedded MEGAUPLOAD box

Note: If you have highly customised templates or styles and the imageshack/MEGAUPLOAD dialog box does not display after usergroup permissions are set, then you may need to manually add the contents of the imageshack template to the templates where you want the dialog box to appear.


Installation Instructions

1. Import ms_imageshack_upload.xml into vB using the AdminCP Product Manager. If upgrading then set Allow Overwrite to Yes.
2. In the Admin CP, select vBulletin Options > Imageshack/MEGAUPLOAD Uploader, and change the settings to enter usergroups that you want to use this, which locations you want to display the imageshack and MEGAUPLOAD dialog boxes and change other settings to your liking.
3. Enjoy the new addition to your posting arsenal !!!

Uninstall Instructions

1. Uninstall the product in vB using the AdminCP Product Manager.

i have installed it but the hack doestn showup..

#edit

Thx! *installed*

thanks...

I'm very interested in this. I use IS code on my forum, but I enforce the thumbnail code. Is this done with this modification?

Same here. Help please <3.

EDIT: Forgot to setup the usergroups.

Did you enter the usergroups you want to display the imageshack dialog box to? Do you have a highly customised style?

No, you have to select which code yourself, it just provides the dialog box as you can see in the screenshot and the rest is handled by the Imageshack site.

/me clicks install. Thank you!

Awesome. Thanks for sharing. :)

<u>Updated hack to v3.1.0</u> - Added imageshack upload dialog box in Quick Edit, also added input validation to AdminCP options.

I can not see:
Usergroup permissions - which groups will see the Imageshack Image Upload box

Look at the fourth screenshot, it is the first option, and even gives an example of what the input should look like.

Nevermind, my fault i fixed it.. awesome thanks

thanks upgrade

If you have this installed, then please click Mark as Installed.

I have emailed ImageShack tech support about the fact that the iFrame Text Color (txtcolor) option does not work, hopefully I will get a response and they fix it up asap.

thank you ... nice hack
how many time the image stay uploaded in imageshack ?
is this hack allowed from imageshak site ?

I love ImageShack host. Installed, Thanks

Ok im sorry
Thank You installed Mosh

No idea how long images will stay uploaded, and yes, this hack is allowed, as they released instructions on how to do this manually and I made it into a hack.

BTW, if you intend to use this, please click Mark as Installed.

Looks like a nice product, but how secure is it?

As the iframe resides on ImageShack's servers you may want to contact them asking how secure their iframe is.

This hack has no security issues that I am aware of (and it has been available for over a year on this site), or it would have been yanked by the staff here long ago (they take security of hacks very seriously here).

Thanks installed,

How do change all texts?


https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/

You can not change the text, as it resides within the imageshack iframe, which resides on the Imageshack servers, which is something I have no control over.

Thanks, upgrade :)

Thx for the update .Keep up the good work :)

Installed..working great
Thanks

For me the option appears twice, any reason?

No, it should not. Where is it appearing twice ?

Observe:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2008/06/12.jpg

It's even in Advance mode.

It looks like it is clashing with Dannyloski's Photobucket Image Uploader hack (which is based on this hack). Do you have that hack installed?

I do, yes.

Any way around it?
