Looking for a new gallery

[Apexi]

Hi guys.
I need some advice on a simple/easy to use gallery to replace the default "gallery" tat comes with vB 4.2.0.
It doesn't need to any fancy och tons of settings. Just as long it makes it easier for member to attach and manage picture.

Thanks. I noticed that gallery before but the pictures (especially the settings screen) is so darn re-sized that you can't see what it says.
Think i have to make a test enviroment just to try it out.

So if i install a new gallery, do i have to disable the default one later on? No one is using it so i don't care if it's disabled. Only problem is that i can't find any option about that part.

I guess that would depend on the mod, they will tell you if you need to.

As for the screenshots, take a look at the mod description page on their site,

If you want to disable access to the vBulletin "Albums", then you alter the access permissions in the "Usergroup Manager" --> User Album Permissions and remove the links in the navigational manager.

Or - you just disable it.

AdminCP->Settings->Options->User Profile Options->Enabled User Profile Features, uncheck Albums.

Well hidden, that one

Just some opinion here...

I run a medium size photography forum and use PhotoPost's vbGallery. Unfortunately, they've discontinued developing it but still sell it. It's riddled with bugs and a bit incomplete, which is really a shame, because it has some great features. I could just move things over to Photopost, but it's not as integrated as vbGallery is with vb4.

DragonByte has their gallery, but it is lacking some features that vbGallery has. It just doesn't flow as well, doesn't have profile integration, the uploader is basic, etc.

Honestly, I wish there was something else out there that brought in some modern features (why do we still have form uploading?) and was a complete product rather than an afterthought.

You sound almost identical to me, have you had any luck with a solution? I am thinking eventually I'll need to migrate to a competing forum via import, plus a gallery system they use and import my vbgallery to that. I'm not seeing vb5 as anything I would even remotely consider, I nearly get an aneurysm trying to use it

Apexi try this one instead: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...ight=photoplog. As long as you do not have vBAdvanced Links installed it should work find for your needs.
