[RELEASE vb2.0+] vB Photo Upload

Update : Sept 6
-- Thanks to wajones who pointed out a couple of things, I updated the files.
-- 1. The icons in the top right corner, one of them was suppose to point to the user help file but it was renamed and I forgot to update the code.
-- 2. There was a header error in the admin panel, which was corrected by wajones... if future problems happens please tell me.

------end update.

Well everyone, I decided tonight to release this and just see what happens from there on. I got caught up in working on my multi-page profile for my site, and kind of forgot about this. Sorry I do that a lot, in which I am sure everyone does.

First off... please read all of the files that I have included in this, the Installation.txt file is something I slapped together at the last minute and probably needs proof read... but who cares. The Readme.txt file explains what all the files are, and has some other tidbit information.

The only things you will really need to upload is: upload.php, userhelp.html, vbuploadinstall.php and the images and image folder.

I tried to explain the best way to have it... is putting those three files in the root of your vb folder, then just upload the images folder, which will create a sub folder inside that for the two image icons. Then you will have to create another folder like I suggested named "uploaded" meaning uploaded pictures. Then you will have to chmodd that to 777 and go from there. Then you will have to go through the upload.php file and change the variable preferences to fit your site. I tried to do the best possible explanation of how to do it through my comments throughout the files. So pay attention to those, also feel free to customize the userhelp file to fit your site and everything.

One thing I kind of fell short on.. was a cool profile page.. I mean I included a getinfo template that I used when I first made this, which was on vb2.0.1 and now that added like ignore and stuff so.. you might just want to create your own template up in your favorite web page builder or in notepad.. whatever. And go from there with the variables that I include.

Just pretty much go through the installation files and everything and follow the steps and you should not have any problems.. not saying you won't but... hopefully the F.A.Q. file will help with that.

Some might hate it, some might like it... if you hate it.. don't download it.. or install it.

To uninstall, follow the steps you took to install it and reverse them

ALWAYS BACKUP Before doing hacks... installations, changes, etc!

**Warning** Install at your own risk!

and... there is no place like home! Just remember that!

P.S. search these forums.. for screen shots and there is no demo as of right now... well there was but I Took it down

As if you did not know.. from reading above.. oh wait maybe you didn't.. and yes I am not in that good of a mood. Because of college problems..

if you would simply look above you can see the the stripslashesarry problem... and the new zip fixed it.

As for the variables not showing up... that was a given, RobAC pointed that out, and I still have not solved that mystery.

There was no header or footer added to my addon, and since it seems you did not read my documents.. I will not support nor will I help change the layout design of it. So if you want to add to it, someone else will help you out if they want to.

Guess I will wait until you are in a better mood because I looked at the new zip and don't see any changes in the files from the one I got early today to fix the stripslashesarry. Perhaps I am blind.

perhaps reading the threads before this...

someone or a few people have had this problem.

and yes in the html instructions file it was changed.

Ok.. might as well explain it.

when you add the code in the admin/user.php file, at the very top you are doubling the error_reporting line..

when I had.. find <?php ... and then after that I put paste this code under that, ... I had you in a sense doubling the error_report .. which gives you that, cause it is trying to do it twice.. and it can only do it once.

so go into your admin/user.php file, look at the very top.... right above <?php trace that down to where it says.. error_reporting(7);

and delete that line all the way up to the <?php line... leaving that line..

the instructions now say... find :

<?php
error_reporting(7);

and right underneath that paste this code:

PHP Code:

require("./global.php");
/*
Auto center window script- snyx (<a href="http://snyxmedia.com" target="_blank">[url]http://snyxmedia.com[/url]</a>) DO NOT REMOVE!
*/
echo "<SCRIPT language="javascript" type="text/javascript">\n";
echo "<!--\n";
echo "var win = null;\n";
echo "function NewWindow(mypage,myname,w,h,scroll){\n";
echo "LeftPosition = (screen.width) ? (screen.width-w)/2 : 0;\n";
echo "TopPosition = (screen.height) ? (screen.height-h)/2 : 0;\n";
echo "settings =  'height='+h+',width='+w+',top='+TopPosition+',left ='+LeftPosition+',scrollbars='+scroll+',resizable'\n";
echo "win = window.open(mypage,myname,settings)\n";
echo "if(win.window.focus){win.window.focus();}\n";
echo "}\n";
echo "\n";   
echo "//--></SCRIPT>\n";
echo "\n"; 


end result it should like this.. starting from line 1:

PHP Code:

<?php
//* Modified by Brad Clampitt *//
error_reporting(7);
require("./global.php");
/*
Auto center window script- snyx (<a href="http://snyxmedia.com" target="_blank">[url]http://snyxmedia.com[/url]</a>) DO NOT REMOVE!
*/
echo "<SCRIPT language="javascript" type="text/javascript">\n";
echo "<!--\n";
echo "var win = null;\n";
echo "function NewWindow(mypage,myname,w,h,scroll){\n";
echo "LeftPosition = (screen.width) ? (screen.width-w)/2 : 0;\n";
echo "TopPosition = (screen.height) ? (screen.height-h)/2 : 0;\n";
echo "settings =  'height='+h+',width='+w+',top='+TopPosition+',left ='+LeftPosition+',scrollbars='+scroll+',resizable'\n";
echo "win = window.open(mypage,myname,settings)\n";
echo "if(win.window.focus){win.window.focus();}\n";
echo "}\n";
echo "\n";   
echo "//--></SCRIPT>\n";
echo "\n";

does this help...

[ToraTora!]

i think from now on, im not going to include instructions for anything i ever release again. Just because of the simple fact, everything winds up here one way or the other.

[ToraTora!]

I wonder if brad could of made us scroll just a bit more to the right.....lol..

[SirSteve]

Now I see it and I got it. I didn't see there were two sets of error_reporting(7); and require("./global.php");

Thank you for your time. Exceptional hack!

hey I am just glad it works...

and don't make me make you guys scroll more to the right

and.. sorry if I seem pissed off for the next couple of weeks.. and well for the last couple of weeks lol..

at my college, which I am going to be graduating in November, they have all my grades and GPA all messed up. I have a 3.9GPA and they say I have a 3.23... which makes no sense... so I have been frustrated and irriated at all of the crap I am having to go through to get this fixed, before I graduate.. cause this is something that I will be showing to employers... and a 3.9 looks better than a 3.23 lol

[maverick1236]

i cannot-no matter what i try-get this hack to work

is there any way u can make it so this "upload.php" connects to the database without a user typing his mysql info in-like some other hacks?

i know this will fix it

why can't you find your config.php file in your admin folder for your vb files..

in there is the information you need if you say *it will fix it* just copy over the information.

[maverick1236]

nothing works

ive even had an experienced webmaster try-no-go

will their be any updates with the coding?-or should i delete the code?

tx

I know for a fact that it cannot be this tuff to figure out.. and I know a lot of people have tried to help you with this...

There will probably not be any updates for awhile for this.. ohh sure I have updated it a lot for my site, and everything but I don't know if I will release my updates.

See the thing is that it works for me perfectly on my servers, it is hard to get something to work smoothly and problemless on all server types and configerations.. ya know..
