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!

It's when I try to set the usergroup permissions that I get the error??

@ChrisBaktis: When you click on upload, what link/page does it take you to?

@smokering: drat, the instructions were out of order (move four to one)

@funinthesun: run domain.com/forum/admincp/index.php?do=buildbitfields

My vB plugin.php file has fetch_table_info (not fetchtableinfo) but I'm wondering because I messed up the order of the instructions, whether that is causing smokering's problem. For funinthesun, it is because bitfields weren't rebuilt using the new group.

FYI: Instructions have been updated.

[funinthesun]

Thank you, that worked Maybe you should add to rebuild bitfields in the instructions

[calorie]

It should have done it automatically, but because the instructions were out of order, it didn't rebuild bitfields using the new group. Instructions are now fixed.

Small problem:


The tables categories and upload are empty, but the view of the categories on the index always indicates elder categories.

How to make to repair?

Thank you very much

How do I link this onto the navbar?

In the status bar it takes me to www.site.com/photoplug/upload.php - it takes a minute or two then comes back page cant be found.

I can answer this one..
Open up your nav bar and search for something that's on your particular Nav bar. Like say "Log Out" ..
should look like:

<td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="login.php?$session[sessionurl]do=logout&amp;logouthash=$bbuserinfo[logouthash]" onclick="return log_out()">$vbphrase[log_out]</a></td>

put

<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="/photoplog/index.php">Photo Gallery</a></td>

Save and reload and in another view see if it's where you want it to be. Until you're used to adding things to your nav bar have 2 browsers open and look at the changes as you do them.

I did as you said and it again failed so i checked my plugin.php file and found it was the 3.5.0 version then checked my orig download of the 3.5.1 update it was also a 3.5.0 version so i re-downloaded vb 3.5.1 and yep you guessed it the plugin.php is diferent so i manually replaced it and that fixed the problem thanks for all the help off to now install the hack

The BBcode don't with if we upload not in a precise category.

Suggestion:
- what would be very well would be to be able to have the image of origin when one clicks above
- One cannot make comments on the images, it's a pity

But, it's a great job Calorie
