Latest Album Pictures - Forum Home

It shows the pictures added to the albums on the main page. It shows only the public mentioned files. If not shows the reasons are: vbulletin settings show albums must be enabled.

The user grup that owns the pictures must be enabled show picture setting. Or there is no picture to show.

You can show the pictures in 4 different sections: Navbar Bellow, Forums Above, Forums Below, Whois Online Below

Additionally you can slect the number of pictures that can be shown.

Hope it works for you as I like it very much.

Ever think of adding an option to have it display in ALBUMSHOME part of vBulletin

[NetRover]

Hi there, only my paid usergroup has access to albums.

It's probably a bit too much to ask for a feature so that other usergroups could see this block without accessing the photos and albums.

Can you tell me if I done a workaround by coying the source code from the browser for the random block and placed it in the ad location above the forums would work?

I would abviously wrap a usergroup conditional around the html?

many thanks for reading

One issue I noticed was that if you turn off the picture description it still says Description:. I fixed this by editing the adv_portal_album_pictures_bit template.

Find

<br /> <strong>$vbphrase[description]</strong>: $picture[caption]

Replace

<if condition="$mod_options['album_picture_description']">
<br /> <strong>$vbphrase[description]</strong>: $picture[caption]
</if>

Thanx for reply.

I'm looking for the same thing.

And also, perhaps an addition to be able to select which albums from only a certain usergroup(s) appear. << Willing to pay $$ for this one if done correctly.

Does anyone know if this mod will work on vBulletin 3.7.5?

[SaltyOnionBalls]

I'm using it on 3.8.2

Thank you.
Is there anyway I can give permissions to few usegroups?

Like many others, I too have been frustrated because I couldn't get this mod to display to unregistered users, despite setting Can View Albums in the usergroup permissions.

Well I found it!!

Under Usergroups Permissions in the General Permissions section, there's a setting for "Can View Member Info" set that to yes and it works!

But then unregistered users can also see the large version of the pictures. I would like unregistered users only to be able to see thumbnails. How can I do that?
