• 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

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!

Well thanks Digital Jedi for your assistance, actually I am able to view the admin panel of photoplog that means all the files must have been uploaded correctly via ftp if files had not been uploaded correctly in ftp most likely I would not be able to view photplog options inside ACP.

After viewing and providing the path inside the option I am still getting a white blank page, not sure why, even providing the right path in config.php.

Any help will be much appreciated guys........

FTP clients have been known to drop files during upload. That's why I suggested reuploading them, as you could have some and not others. Also, when I view your site, I get an Internal 500 Error, and not a blank page.

Did you happen to run the script that verfies your file path to be sure it's correct?

Well I am not that techy person can you please explain how to run script and from where to verify the path, are you suggesting to check through ssh from my plesk for the exact path ?? if yes than that I already checked.

a quick question, do I need to put the same full path in the acp of photoplog as I did in the config.php??

Thanks for your assistance.

Thanks for your assistance.

It's something Calorie mentions in the trouble shooting guide. What you do is you take this code:

PHP Code:

<?php
echo getcwd();
?>

And save it as a PHP file. Name it whatever you wish, upload it to the folder you keep your forum in. Then type in the location of that file in your browser. So, say you name it filepath.php. That means that if your forum is located in the folder you named baithak, you would upload it to that folder, and then type in http://meraraabta.com/site/baithak/filepath.php into your browser window. That will give you the full file path that you should put in your Photoplog config.php file.

As for your question about the ACP, no, in the Admin CP you'll want to put the full URL of your Photoplog, which will look very different from the full File Path of your forum.

Ok thank you Digital Jedi once again for your kind assistance I am away from my PC and I am going to try out in about few hours and will post a comment later on here, I think this tip will help, I was doing a littel mistake in not putting the full path in acp,

Thanks and much appreciated.

Digital Jedi, this tip is really helpful in finging the exact path, I got it fixed, it was the issue of path and now photoplog is viewable.

Edit: I got fixed all so far working fine special thanks to Digital Jedi and a great software by Calorie.

Any help with my problem yet?

[Digital Jedi]

You probably need to ask Morgan over at Phtoplog.com about that one.

My website is at limeroll.com

After i click the "Gallery" button on the navbar which is linked to the photoplog page, I get directed to photoplog, but I realised that the navbar changes and supposedly those previously removed links (which i created on the navbar templates) appear again on the navbar... "Links" "Photos" and "NAME"... Im using vbadvanced as well, can someone help me with this problem? I tried to search in the navbar template but these links couldnt be found!

Please help, thanks.

EDIT: Now the links that are displayed on the homepage (vbadvanced) do not appear on the gallery. Please help
