Signature Image Management System (file based)

Updated: 27 June 2002, 12:22 AM BST

This hack allows users to upload a image or images that they can then use as part of the thier signature. All uploaded images are private to the user that uploaded them.

The hack requires that you have PHP 4.1.0 or newer for the upload functions to work correctly. PHP 4.0.6 can be used with modifications (not recommended).

The scripts can if enabled also prevent users from externally linking to the images they uploaded, please note this is done by HTTP_REFERER checking not all http servers or browsers support this however is more widely supported than Apache's mod_rewrite. Should you wish to stop deep linking then upload a image called badcontent.gif to your forums directory.

Further more instructions are provided in how to get this hack to work if you are using vBulletin's standard sig editor or a advanced sig editor hack.

Version 2.0 Updates
- remote storage support
- sig.php nolonger appears in online.php
- special [sig] vB code is used instead of [img] tags

Version 1.3 Updates
- fixed display bug
- added removal script to main package
- added test template set

Version 1.11 Updates
- Image width & height checking
- Extension checking
- More useful error messages
- Added a missing function

Current Version 1.3
Released 20th sept 2001

Requirements:
- vBulletin 2.0.3
- PHP 4.0.3+ (this hack has not been tested on PHP 3.0.17, it may or may not work)

Optional:
- HTTP Server that supports HTTP_REFERER, (Apache 1.2+, IIS 4+)
- badcontent.gif in your forum directory

Screenshots can be found in the zip file.

I just need to know where the vb images are set in the pop up window, my sigs are working fine, its just that the actual vb images are linking to http://www.classicaka.com........<a ...rms/images</a>

instead of just www.classicaka.com/vb/forum/images

any help would be greatly appreciated

vB images?

All the image paths used by this hack are controlled via the admin cp.

reconfigure apache.

And no I won't be more helpful than that, as the files are owned by the user account apache runs under. You can't automatically chown them in php as that would require running php as superuser which is bad mmkay.

Forgive me if this has already been asked, but is there a way to regulate this hack so a user has to have a certain number of posts before they can upload sig images?

Giving free reign to upload stuff to ALL users on my board could be a problem. There is too many of them!

***** EDIT *******
Nevermind, I figured it out

I'm lazy so I'll quote the readme.

Installation is split into 4 parts.
- Part 1 covers changes that need to made for new installations.
- Part 2 covers changes that need to made for users of the vBulletin provided Signature Editor.
- Part 3 covers changes that need to made for users of a Advanced Signature Editor.

Yes part 3 is specific to sites with ANOTHER hack installed, no this hack is not required. Thus is in a seperate optional part.

You've been into the admin cp and set the configuration options for this hack?

"options > vBulletin Options > signature"
