This is the port for my hack to vb 3.6.x

A New installer replaced the old one so you should not face any problems with database

NOTE :
People who were using vbimghost in vb 3.5.x and moved to vb 3.6.0 MAKE sure that you have vbimghost 1.4.1 Since this port will only support upgrading from that ver only
People who do a fresh install use this ver.

Requirements:

1. requires GD 2.0.1 or later (2.0.28 or later is recommended).
2. PHP ver 4.3.x or later (newer ver is better).

NOTE:
before you post any error here :
Set that path to your forums correctly in the vbimghost options.
if you getting the error ""supplied argument is not a valid"
that's because you didn't set the path correctly

And for all the people asking when is the next release it will be in 2007 not this month .. due to some problems in real life ..



URGENT ISSUES:

[kether1]

Here is an odd question: I would like to use this as the image gallery for my forum, but I would like to have the images that are hosted placed on my other URL on my server. For example if my forum address is www.example.com/forum - instead of having the 'imagehosting' folder inside /forum - I would like to put it on my other site - www.othersite.com/imagehosting - that is not a forum site at all (but would serve as the image hosting site.)

This way all the images would be stored at that site and have that URL instead of my forum's url.

Ok - why do I want to do this? There are a couple of reasons but the main one is that I want to be able to cache the images in the forum using the ImageCache hack. If the image comes from my forum url, then the ImageCache hack will not cache the image and if a user deletes an image from his album to make room for another,--- if that image was used in the forum, --- it then disappeares and leaves a blank or red x where the image used to be thus screwing up that particular thread in the forum.

I thought about just turning off the 'delete' permissions in this modification, but decided that would mean no one could ever change his or her gallery. - That would not be cool. My users have lots of photos and I am sure they would run out of space and start deleting to make room for more.

But I don't want to have missing images in the forum either, so I would like to have the image cached.

I like this hack very much, but cannot use it unless there is a way to store the images on my non-forum site.

Any idea how to do that?

Thanks,
K

BTW - (I installed this on my test forum and it works wonderfully in 3.7 - I sure hope to be able to install it on my real forum and click INSTALL here!)

Redirecting...



image uploaded

Click here if your browser does not automatically redirect you.

I see you figured it out, but it's nice to post it for everyone else.

If anyone is having this problem, CHMOD your imagehosting directory (that you uploaded with all the other files) to 777.

The only way could find to fix this problem (and I'm sure there is a geekier, hi tech way) was to create images and name them whatever the images that won't delete are named. Then upload them to your imagehosting folder so there is actually something there to delete.

The problem was that vBulletin thinks there are images there, so it lists their file names. When it goes to display or delete them though, it can't find them and freaks the frack out. This fixes that.

I'm having a problem of my own....

I'm trying to use this as a means for my members to display their webcomics and I want the images in the film strip to appear in the order they were uploaded. In the film strip when I click on the first image uploaded, the rest are navigated to with the left arrow, but it should be the right arrow. Anyone know how I can fix this? (Example here.)

Here's a screenie of what I mean.....

why not use the album feature that came with vb 3.7 instead of using this hack ?!

[Warlord]

Any idea on my problem Ranma?

Because the Quickupload Feature is missing in the Editor.

Anyway to get a Hack from you for 3.7 that brings the Quick-Upload to one specific Album for each Member?
