Picture and Album Gallery with Search
 

Picture and Album Gallery

There is a vB4 version of this mod HERE

Features:

Adds a Gallery option to the nav bar which allows browsing and searching of pictures. Also adds an album browser to the Community dropdown menu.

The search functions searches album title, album description, picture caption AND username.

Note: If guest permission AdminCP->Usergroups->UserGroup Manager->Unregistered/Not Logged In->Can View Albums is "yes" then they will be able to browse album and picture thumbnails - they may NOT be able to view the full-size pictures. To hide the gallery menu from guest see Settings below.

The product is fully phrased

Tested with Vbulletin 3.8.4/5 (note: earlier versions have not been tested and are not supported) AND vBadvanced 3.

Settings:
None are needed - it does what it says on the tin :p.

AdminCP->Options->User Profile:Album Options "Pictures Per Page" and "Albums Per Page" control the number of thumbnails displayed per page in each gallery type.

If you want to hide the picture Gallery menu from guests then edit the Gallery picture navbar plugin and change $allowguests to false

hi, do you have screenshots? :)

I'd love to see some screenshots or a demo as well.

Looks interesting, I'll give it a go.

Downloading it and trying it out in the next day or two. Screenshot that was added looks good :up:

only one more feature left: rating. :D

So if I understand correctly, the only difference with the regular and actual vb albums is the fact that you can search, is that it? Or it simply add this function to the actual album? Rating would be nice for sure.

This mod allows you to view ALL of the pictures and albums at the same time - the standard is to view a single users albums only (with no site-wide search).

Works really good. Thanks for sharing.

Will you be doing this for VB4 too?

Good thinking! :up:

If we could rate the pictures from that main page, it would promote folks' use of it. :)
