Social Group and Album Enhancements - All Albums

All Albums 2.5

This hack lets you view an index of all user albums on one page. Looks like a user's index but just has all users instead of just one.

You have to upload the all_albums.php file to your root vBulletin folder. This is the file that you have to access to see all the albums.

ENJOY!

I wonder why the uninstall doesn't at least warn you these files will remain there and keep running.

Because the coder did not code it to check if it was there on uninstall.

This functionality provided through this mod should become part of the core vB4, it's that important to site growth and moving forums to the next generation.

This going to be updated for 4.0+? Love this mod.

Hi.. Thanks for this trick.

I edited the file as you said. But no use, it didn't work. Still all privates albums are showing to normal members.

all_albums.php

AFTER:
while ($album = $db->fetch_array($albums)) {

ADD:
if ($album['state'] == 'private' AND !can_view_private_albums($userinfo['userid']))
{
continue; }

Very nice, but my database contains many empty/deleted albums that are showing up. Any way to delete them for good?

I'm not upgrading to 4.0 until either this or something similar is released. Saves me having a seperate gallery installed!

Umm.. why would we need this mod when this is available?

Recently Updated Albums shows only that - the albums that were updated last. My album of my vacation last year won't show up.

All Albums creates a page with a listing of all your albums, regardless of newer entries. So my old vacation shows up along with everything else.

What did I miss? Is a vb4 version available? Or is there some hack that will do it?
