But I followed the rest of the steps, and for some reason, I'm now getting a forum database error... imported the product and made the two index.php changes, and now I'm getting a database error page.

FYI, I ran a query earlier today for another gallery mod: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=92875

Would this have anything to do with this error?

I am having the exact same problem (after uninstalling vbi_gallery) any thoughts?

Added:
- functions_gallery_store.php

This method works for PHP4x , 5x. I have tested this and it works.

This will "globalize" the needed $phrasegroup and $specialtemplates with 1 file edit so no other file edits are needed on hacks that need the gallery's:

- $phrasegroups
- $specialtemplates

--------------------------------

* This will add all the needed file edits for gallery add-ons.
* This will work on ALL VB powered pages
* This will work on vBAdvanced CMPS pages
* This will work on vPortal pages and Blocks
* This only needs to be done once

- I will update any hack I create with this method. The file will be with every hack until a standard can be added to the main build.

Latest version works fine, but could you please add the missing table tags in the code?

Error Line 762 column 9: end tag for "table" which is not finished.
</table>

Error Line 790 column 9: end tag for "table" which is not finished.
</table>

Error Line 818 column 9: end tag for "table" which is not finished.

Error Line 846 column 9: end tag for "table" which is not finished.

Hi Zachariah

When I add the line
> - Edit:
>forums/includes/init.php
>- Find:
>require_once(CWD . '/includes/class_core.php');
>- Below Add:
>require_once(CWD . '/includes/functions_gallery_store.php');"

I get the following error.
There seems to have been a problem with the Forums database.
Please try again by clicking the Refresh button in your web browser.

Email says:
Database error in vBulletin 3.5.4:

Invalid SQL:

SELECT
userfield.*, usertextfield.*, user.*, UNIX_TIMESTAMP(passworddate) AS passworddate,

LEFT JOIN usertextfield AS usertextfield ON (usertextfield.userid = user.userid) INNER JOIN language AS language ON (language.languageid = IF(user.languageid = 0, 1, user.languageid))

Also, the include file is incorrect in your xml.
Code is:
//Latest Images In ForumHome BEGIN

require_once('./includes/functions_gallery.php');
require_once('./includes/class_bbcode.php');

Should be:
//Latest Images In ForumHome BEGIN

require_once('./includes/functions_gallery_store.php');
require_once('./includes/class_bbcode.php');

Any help would be great.

VB 3.5 - 3.5.4
forums/includes/init.php -- Not the XML file that came with the package.

#############################################################################
// fetch the core includes
require_once(CWD . '/includes/class_core.php');
require_once(CWD . '/includes/functions_gallery_store.php');

// initialize the data registry
$vbulletin =& new vB_Registry();

// parse the configuration ini file
$vbulletin->fetch_config();

Upload: forums/includes/functions_gallery_store.php

This works on my website.
This step is done so that there is no need to edit forums/index.php. This one edit will also stop the the need to edit any other VB powered pages to show gallery data on them.

In the past you had to do this to show data on FORUMHOME page.

First, open your forum/index.php file and find:

---------------------------------------------------
a)

Find:

$phrasegroups = array('holiday');

Replace with:

$phrasegroups = array('holiday','adv_gallery');
---------------------------------------------------
b)


Find
 
 'mailqueue'  

---------------------------------------------------

Replace with:

 'mailqueue',  
 'gallery_c_cache',  
 'adv_gallery_opt',  
 'gallery_ugroups'

I found myself with 10 VB core php files with edits to show gallery data. This was a total pain when the forums did an upgrade or the portal system needed an upgrade and file edits were needed again. This way only 1 file edit is needed for site wide availability of data.

require_once('./includes/class_bbcode.php');

If I don't make this change, there is an error saying the file function_gallery.php can't be found.

Once I've made this change in the xml file the error I get only occures once I add that include file in init.php.

Never mind, I sorted it out :banana:

Place where you want on forumhome w/ 1 template edit

You will want to edit the forumhome template and place the block where you want vs. use an anchor:

Edit plugin: Forumhome: Gallery Main

Replace:

$search_text = '$navbar';
$vbulletin->templatecache['FORUMHOME'] = str_replace($search_text,
$search_text.fetch_template('forumhome_vbgallery'),$vbulletin->templatecache['FORUMHOME']);

with

eval('$vbgallery = "' . fetch_template('forumhome_vbgallery') . '";');

Edit FORUMHOME: Place in location of choice.

$vbgallery
