1. vbPhotoVote Highlights

• Ability to rate specific photos only.
• Double vote not allowed, but user can edit his rating
• User can skip photos that he don't want to vote.
• User is seeing only photos that he hasn't vote before.
• Search by User, Location, Keywords
• Discussion thread for each photo.
• Email link to a friend.
• Report photo as illegal to admin.
• Many configurations per usergroup so you can easily charge users.

2.- Not only one but three(3) ways to rate!

As I know, all similar scripts in the market works on the same way. A user must rate one by one the photos and some of them they've the ability to rate by category but again one by one. With vbPhotoVote you can rate photos with one of the following ways:

• All photos one by one. But you'll never see again a photo that you've already rated!
• All photos, one by one, on selecting category. But again only the photos that you haven't rated before.
• Selected photos only, from the listing results after a search.

3.- vbPhotoVote is Smart!

• While it prevents multiple votes by the same user, it gives the ability to any user who has changed his mind about a vote that already did, to correct it. If a user search for this photo he can rate it again, but the only that it counts is the difference in points between 1st and 2nd vote. The total votes are not increase.
• On every page there are blocks with last 5 photos and top 5 photos. The contain of these blocks are according to the place that you're. In the main page shows from all categories. In a category listing limits them in the specific category. In Member area show user's top 5 and last 5!!

4.- Why your Members will love it!

Along with it's many features, your members will love it as they can see many statistical details for all their photos in one place. eg: How many votes has each of their photos, what's their position in stream in the same category, or among all photos. Also there they can edit or delete a photo, read reviews, get the link.

8.- Installation

• Upload the entire /vbphotovote directory to your webserver UNDER the folder where
  your vBulletin is installed. eg if your vb installation is located at:
  http://www.yourdomain.com/forums then the /vbmates directory must be under this (/forums).
• Upload vbphotovote.php at your forum directory (!!NOT!! in vbphotovote directory).
• Upload the file /admicp/vbphotovote_admin.php to your /admincp directory
• Upload the files in /includes/xml/*.* to your /includes/xml/
• CMOD the following directoris to 777
  /photos (inside vbphotovote directory)
  /tmp (inside vbphotovote directory)
  /thumbs (inside vbphotovote/photos directory)
• For security reasons backup your database AND turn your board off
• Check at your AdminCP->vBulletin Options->Plugin/Hook System that Plugin system
  is enabled.
• From your AdminCP->Plugin System->Manage Products choose Add/Import Product and import the product: product_vbphotovote.xml
• From your adminCP from "Forum & Moderators->Forum Manager" choose "Add New Forum". This will be used for Reviews. It's better to use the default form and not
  copying another forum. The points that need attention are: Parent forum : No one, Display Order : 0 !!!! (To hide forum from listings)
• If you want to add a link to your nav bar then you must edit the NAVBAR template:
  Search For:

<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="calendar.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[calendar]</a></td>

Add Below:

<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="vbphotovote.php$session[sessionurl_q]">Photo Rating</a></td>

• By default none usergroup has permissions to use vbPhotoVote, so you need to give
  permissions to any group. Goto AdminCP->Usergroups->Usergroup Manager and edit any usergroup you like to give permissions.
• Configure vbPhotoVote to meet your needs at AdminCP->vbPhotoVote->Options

Check carefully that you're trying to import product-vbphotovote.xml and not another file. This error is coming when you're trying to import something else. eg a php file. Of course check that filesize of product-vbphotovote.xml is not 0

Is there a way to edit the categories? I'd like to use this for the monthly photo contest my site has and this is a great way to get everyone in and voted for and no one feeling left behind.. But I just need 1 category and a way for it to maybe only have rating opened in a certain date range.

Any ideas on if this can be done??

Great mod, regardless!!

[PamelaE]

Doe it have to use the default style ?

hi

I wanted to link to a member's photos from their profile page. So that if member A is viewing member B's profile they can click a link and view all of member A's photos. Is this possible? And what would the link be?

Thank You,

Jared

Among 9 links it was 1 that left wrong. But I've corrected it yesterday morning.

It really is bad luck for me. That's fine.
