Phototopost features block on forumhome

hi people,

I see people who are heavenly modifying there boards to get this done.This is actually not needed.Photopost includes a files that does this automatically

1)install the plugin
2)tempate modification

template FORUMHOME find this code

<!-- /main -->
<br />
<br />

replace with

<!-- /main -->
 
<br />
$photopostfeature
<br />

remember to modify the path to inc_features.php(this is a PhotoPost file) if your photopost installation is different from mine

that's all

enjoy
all done no more modifications to the original vb files needed

possible problems
Question:After installation i get an error message like

Warning: mysql_fetch_row(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /photopost/inc_features.php on line xx

Warning: mysql_fetch_row(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /photopost/inc_features.php on line xx

Answer:This Could be because you did not set a value for the $ppdbprefix (database table prefix) Photopost uses.Open your config-int.php and set the correct value for the $ppdbprefix variable

You can also set this in your Photopost Administration panel under "edit integration" (PhotoPost Database Table Prefixes) field

question i don't know what my path should be can you help me ?

PHP Code:

<?php
phpinfo(INFO_VARIABLES);
?>

and look at the value of $_SERVER['PATH_TRANSLATED']; this is the serverpath to the file you are currently vieuwing within your webbrowser when you are done remove this file from your server (security )

hi people,

Since so manny people have trouble setting there path ....here's what you can do about it.In your favorite editor create a new PHP source file with this code

PHP Code:

phpinfo(INFO_VARIABLES); 


and look at the values of

• $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT];
• $_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME'];
• $_SERVER['PATH_TRANSLATED'] //complete serverpath to current file

change the path to the value it says you stimm may need to adjust it a little

inc-features.php

PHP Code:

// which type of images do you want to show (random, most_view, latest)
$q_switch = "latest";

Its strange in the gallery it says latest but in the forum it is not the latest

In the inc-features.php I have
// which type of images do you want to show (random, most_view, latest)
$q_switch = "latest";

Fixed my problem. I had already tried to install manually. Just had to remove what I had done.

Now it works great. Thanks.
