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!

Hi,

I recently changed servers and I have a error with my photo gallery.

Warning: chdir() [function.chdir]: No such file or directory (errno 2) in /home/myusername/public_html/mysite.co.uk/photoplog/settings.php on line 92

Warning: require_once(./global.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/myusername/public_html/mysite.co.uk/photoplog/settings.php on line 93

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required './global.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/myusername/public_html/mysite.co.uk/photoplog/settings.php on line 93

Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

Any help or advice would be most appreciated!

photoplog lite 2.0.7

forum home: /var/www/html/vb368
1. tried installing /var/www/html/vb368/photoplog (underneath forum home)
link: 127.0.0.1/vb368/photoplog

2. tried installing /var/www/html/photoplog (outside forum home)
link: 127.0.0.1/photoplog

same error both times.

Cookies are still at default set by vb install.

Using Administrator login
All Permissions set
Able to create categories, etc, just cannot upload an image to any category.

If I can get this working reliably, I have no problems upgrading to Pro version.

It took a TON of "echo" statements but I finally found and fixed the problem - 4 letters ... starts with C and rhymes with "SRF"

Is this possible to upload images in Gallery directory help of ftp and import from Admincp or any other way because upload each again and again it's quite annoying

Todo:
Edit 2 PhotoPlog files - index.php and functions.php

Dificulty & Time
Easy ... just 2 minuts

What & How?

Place image name in Title

Open index.php and find

photoplog_output_page('photoplog_view_file', $vbphrase['photoplog_view_file']);

replace with

photoplog_output_page('photoplog_view_file', $vbphrase['photoplog_view_file'] ." - ". $photoplog_title);

Replace PhotoPlog in title with you Forum Name

Open functions.php and find

$pagetitle = $vbphrase['photoplog_photoplog']." - ".$photoplog_phrase;

replace with

$pagetitle = $vbulletin->options['bbtitle']." - ".$photoplog_phrase;

Note: $vbulletin->options['bbtitle'] is defined at: vBulletin Options -> vBulletin Options -> Site Name / URL / Contact Details -> Forum Name

Done!

This hack was done with vBulletin 3.6.5 and PhotoPlog Lite v.2.0.6

PS: English is not my main language, so if you find any error just ignore it!

Apparently everyone has forgotten how to read. Go back to the first page and check out posts 2 and 3, covers 90% of the questions asked.

Im running PhotoPlog, just want to know is there a difference between this & the now default vBulletin Albums?

Thanks

So for those of us that are very dense, what steps does one take exactly to run the script given in our main forum directory to determine the correct path?
