Major Additions - PhotoPlog: The Lite Gallery

PhotoPlog: The Lite Gallery

PhotoPlog Lite is a gallery script for GIF, JPG, and PNG images. PhotoPlog Lite comes with categories, permissions, comments, search, moderation. The installation takes care of phrases, templates, tables, etcetera. Just follow the README.txt file for installation.

There is a license agreement that I request that you abide. Thanks!

This thread is organized as follows:

• Post1 contains this here release.
• Post2 contains current add-ons.
• Post3 contains onscreen errors.

Fine Print: see license agreement, no redistribution, copyright retained in full, right reserved to uncheck support box.

Requirements: vB 3.5.0+ (development initially based on having vB 3.5.4 though vB 3.6.0+ and vB 3.7.0+ should be okay, but not every version was personally tested) and MySQL 4.1+ (development based on having MySQL 4.1+ though MySQL 3+ may be okay, but not every version was personally tested) and PHP with GD2 and Safe Mode off

Does it work on vB 3.5 and vB 3.6 and vB 3.7? Yes, it should. See the requirements. Also, there are two product XML files, one for vB 3.5 and one for vB 3.6/3.7, so import the one that matches your vB version.

Live Demo and Official Support: http://www.photoplog.com/

Note on Official Support: With 70 some pages, assuming 15 posts per page, and over 1000 posts, all in one thread, official support for this mod is now held off-site. Apologies in advance for possibly having to register at yet another forum, but IMHO support would be better served elsewhere at this point.

All support requests, except perhaps for proven bugs, may be ignored if posted in this thread.

Comments, suggestions, etcetera are welcome, but please note that further modifications are not being planned, as this is intended as the final release of the lite series.

Fun Fact: PhotoPlog Lite v.2.0.6 had 4330 downloads plus 2262 downloads prior to CSRF protection plus 3031 downloads as of 06 Nov 2010!

When trying to add the phrases i get this error

The varname you specified for this phrase is invalid. You may only include a-z, A-Z, 0-9, and _ (underscore).

I would think it is due to the $ sign.

Open your MEMBERINFO template and put the following wherever you want the link to show:

<a href="YOUR LINK TO PHOTOPLOG HERE/index.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$userinfo[userid]">User's Photo Gallery</a>

If you want to phrase it, add the phrase like the other posters suggested

Got it.... just added

<a href="http://www.mysite.com/forums/photoplog/index.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$userinfo[userid]">$userinfo[username]'s Photo Gallery</a>

I've been trying to get an account on photoplog.com but I never get the authorization email. Additionally I wanted to buy the software, but can't without a valid account.

HELP!

I'm looking to pull a little info so that i can change the navbar in the gallery a bit to work with the profiles better, and was wondering what i could use instead of this. It's not pulling the $userinfo's properly, so the link comes up as "member.php?u= " (with no number) and the link shows up as "Back to 's Profile"

Any ideeers?

<if condition="$photoplog_view_link"><td class="alt1"><a href="http://www.mischiefsociety.com/vb/member.php?u=$userinfo[userid]">Back to $userinfo[username]'s Profile</a></td></if>

http://www.mischiefsociety.com/vb/ph.../index.php?u=1
I'd like that link to go back to my profile, since its my pictures page

[uni_x]

Any chance of a mod that allows more than one photo to be upload at a time?

[inthezone]

I've been running PhotoPlog Lite for over a year, and all of the sudden, most of my images aren't displaying. The images that file.php?n=X can't access are still on the server, though. Any ideas?

[tirol07]

please help me!

I have a main category and 20 sub-categories, the sub-categories indicated into a line, how can i that change,
I would like 3 sub categories per line.

Note that the 'Not Available' category has 'off' settings, so move files to a 'real' category in order to do such things as parse BBcode and allow comments.

Use the following to add a link to PhotoPlog in the vB navbar template:

<!-- change the text in capitals to your site information -->

<a href="http://www.YOUR-DOMAIN.com/YOUR-PHOTOPLOG-DIR/index.php$session[sessionurl_q]">Gallery</a>

<a href="/YOUR-PHOTOPLOG-DIR/index.php$session[sessionurl_q]">Gallery</a>

Use the following to add a link to a user's PhotoPlog gallery in the vB postbit(_legacy) template:
(see the README.txt file, comments section, if using PhotoPlog Lite v.1.0.8+)

<!-- change the text in capitals to your site information -->

<a href="http://www.YOUR-DOMAIN.com/YOUR-PHOTOPLOG-DIR/index.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]">Gallery</a>

<a href="/YOUR-PHOTOPLOG-DIR/index.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]">Gallery</a>

<!-- change the text in capitals to your site information -->

<a href="http://www.YOUR-DOMAIN.com/YOUR-PHOTOPLOG-DIR/index.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$userinfo[userid]">Gallery</a>

<a href="/YOUR-PHOTOPLOG-DIR/index.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$userinfo[userid]">Gallery</a>

is it possible to have a script or a plugin which would do these updates/edits to my selected template automatically?
I am asking since these are going to be too much to do for every version update that vbulletin gives out.

thanks
