I have it up and running on mine and it does post from their gallery on the members profile. It's pretty sweet.

Hello

I just installed this and I think it is fantastic however, I have a couple of questions please:

1) Even tho the option to download attachments has been enabled for each user group, I find that I am still getting a red x in place of the image when I am not logged in. How can I resolve this issue?

2) I am using a green colored border and green text on the forums. This creates a problem with being able to see the text under the image in the show last pictures area on the forum home. Is there some alternative I can take to help resolve the issue as opposed to having to change my original border and text colors for the entire forum?

3) I noticed that in some places there seems to be a bit of German text here and there. This text is not found in the template areas or in the phrase manager. Can I open the xml page in a text editor, find the text and make the changes from German to English or will this mess things up?

Here is a quick link to the forums for an example of the issues I am having:

Your help in resolving the issues would be greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,

1) You have to enable attachment download for unregistered members.
2) You can alter the gallery templates in the gallery_threadbit template. The text DateigroBe is located there too. You can replace it with a phrase by replacing it with $vbphrase[size]. Go to the phrase manager and add a phrase with the variable size, global, vbigallery.
3) That should work, or you can find the phrase manager in the languages & phrase manager and give an alternative translation there.

Hello Bernd,

Thank You for your reply. I will give suggestion #2 a try however suggestion #1 remains an issue as the attachment download for unregistered members is and has been enabled.

Sincerely,
Gehanna

Are you sure you have enabled it through forum permissions\correct forum?


Something completely different.

This hack doesn't support proper resizing of gallery images yet.
I am wondering if the following code can be used?

http://www.phpbuilder.com/board/show...68&postcount=7

I have tried adjusting the gallery_attachment template, but the attached thumbnails are not correctly read.

<IMG SRC="tn_image.php?image=file.jpg">

is the code used to resize the images.
file.jpg has to be replaced with

attachment.php?$session[sessionurl]attachmentid=$attachment[attachmentid]

It seems attachments are not "read" as images, so it has to be either temporarily stored or something else needs to be done..not sure.

@Bernd: As far as i remember, there is a function for this. I'll look after it after the weekend. It's already bothering me too, this problem.

Coming soon (maybe tonight):

- new: featured gallery/forum. With the help of this you can define a special gallery or a forum and show the thread at the top of the page. I've to thank Bernd for this, he had the idea on this to do.

Here's a screenshot of it:

Does this forum allow you to restrict access to specific usergroups?

is there a way to get the images that are chosen as for this gallery, to show up on the control panel? I see where images can be submitted, but not where they can be put by admins
