viPortfolio 1.2.6 Beta Release

======= =======
viPortfolio Version 1.2.6

This is our first hack. And not our last. We have spent a lot of time polishing it for stability and interface. Thanks for the patience and support so far.
We have installed and tested in vBulletin 2.2.6. For those with older versions, please post your results.

We would appreciate any feedback regarding this hack. Interface, changes for future versions and so on. We will offer support for this hack - we will not be responsible for errors - as always, BACK UP YOUR data base.

We have spent a lot of time on this and all we ask is that our copyright notice remain in tact at the bottom of portfolio pages. Thanks!

Along with viPortfolio we are making use of a new install.php version 1.2.6. The install.php has not had the amount of testing that viPortfolio has. With that said we are looking for your assistance in notifying VisibleImpact.com of any error messages or difficulties you may have with the install.

*** Updated installer ****
I have totaly rewritten the installer to take out all the flash and make it a simple step by step install. Atleast I hope that is what it is It is definately worth trying.

The installer was an extra that was supposed to make life easier. I guess I missed the mark on that one. The real magic is in the portfolio. That is were I am most interested in hearing peoples views. If the manual install worked for you than great! If not than that is my priority. To get the manual directions up to speed.

Are you having troubles getting your manual updates working or is it just the installer? Please tell me your users will have a portfolio to use.

Well I got it installed manually and everything looks fine. I went to upload a pic for my profile and got the error posted below

[Christy]

Well I added a tmp directory and that fixed that error, but now i get this error

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: imagecreatefromjpeg() in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\forum\viPortfolio.php on line 610

[TeddyBare69]

GD is required for this to work. I should have put that in the release :cry:

You can double check that it actual is compiled in by running phpinfo

http://{your site}/admin/index.php?action=phpinfo

You should be able to find the following
gd

GD Support
enabled

GD Version
1.6.2 or higher

JPG Support
enabled

PNG Support
enabled

well I got the php_gd.dll and put it in the extensions directory and uncommented it out of php.ini and then my php pages dont load so gonna have to figure something out.

[TeddyBare69]

I wish I could help , I know nothing about the windows side of php. Let me know when you convert to your favorite flavor of unix and I will be ther for ya.

Somebody on this board should have and idea though?

[Christy]

Ok, got that installed

everything uploads fine, but this is the result

http://www.force137.com/forum/viportfolio.php?userid=1

Everything is X'ed out.

Also I cannot delete any existing images, when I go to edit and select the Delete current file and update, it seems like it all go's through, but then i go to that page again and it is still there.

[TeddyBare69]

I went back and tried it on my system also and I am having the same difficulties. I should have this fixed pretty fast. Thanks.

By the way, really awesome looking design on your website.

I will be working on that error message also.

[TeddyBare69]

We have a fix for the deletion not working.

It turns out to be a fairly simple fix.


We will be editing two templates:
First template is viPortfolio_edit_editbit.

The very first line of the template looks like this:
<input type="hidden" name="portfolioids [$count]" value="$image[portfolioid ]" />

and it should look like this:
<input type="hidden" name="viPortfolioids [$count]" value="$image[viPortfolioid ]" />

This template is fixed, go ahead and save.

Now for template two: viPortfolio_edit_attachment

Open the template up and look on what should be line 11

[Before]
<input type="hidden" name="portfolioids [$count]" value="$image[portfolioid ]" />

[After]
<input type="hidden" name="viPortfolioids [$count]" value="$image[viPortfolioid ]" />


Christy,
Now that GD is working better for you, can you try and upload more pictures and see if that fixes your missing images problem?

[Christy]

Ok, Delete is now working

Everything uploads fine but still red X, ive used jpg and gif

I noticed that when you click on the thumb, the popup window is the same size as the pic so thats working, just not displaying the images
