I just want to double check because I want to be able to limit each users ability to upload to the gallery but have all registered users be able to view pics.

Anyone....?

Also where is the template forumhome located?

Anyone? Am I actually looking for .php file or do I go through vbulletin admin panel to edit?

I just want it so guess can view the pictures instead of this coming up

"Nur für Mitglieder!"

[UtahNissans]

Is there not an english version?

[azntfl]

i dunno, i am thinking of uninstalling this mod and try Photoplog

I got it installed on my site in english. Only problem is there is no upload button and the gallery looks like a normal forum thread

Changing the language,

A few posts back i have explained how to change the text "nur fur mitglieder". All german text is hard coded, but it can be easily replaced with phrases (see one of my previous posts). It only takes a few minutes.

Allow guests to view the gallery,

-Open the template gallery_postbit
-Remove the following lines

<if condition="$show['member']">

and

<br />
<table class="tborder" id="post$post[postid]" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="640" align="center">
<tr>
<td class="thead">
Nur f?r Mitglieder!
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="alt1">
<img src="images/not_registered.jpg">
</td>
</tr>
</table>

Done! If you remove the above, the gallery will use the forum's permissions fully. So, if you disallow guests to view a thread, the gallery thread will not be displayed etc etc.

Upload permissions,

As for upload permissions, the gallery should still use the forum's upload permissions. Just set the upload permissions for an usergroup and they won't be able to upload, but will still be able to view the gallery.

if your forum thread looks normal, you have probably forgotten to specify that the forum should act as a gallery under forum options.

Buttons,

Most templates come with a psd file. Make your own

p.s. I'm not the one who should be saying this, but have some patience. These hacks are available for free.
