When creating or editing a post, your users can open a popup window that will show them pictures in the chosen gallery or albums. Now also supports attachments: Reuse what you uploaded! A click on the picture inserts it into the editor.
Works with
vBulletin 3.7.x and 3.8.x, vB Blog (probably anything that uses the vB editor)
Upload the contents of folder "UPLOAD" to your forum root. Note how the folder structure in this folder mirrors the folder structure in your forum root, so every file will be in the right place.
a) If you intend to use only the vBulletin forums albums, proceed to step 4.
b) If you intend to use any other gallery product, see "Product configuration" in second post.
Install the product.
a) If you are using Template Modification System (TMS), you're done.
b) If not, do the template modifications explained in template_edits.txt manually.
Basic Configuration
if you're using only vB albums, everything is done via AdminCP->Options->Photo-Popup
Decide there how many rows and columns the popup table will have, what gallery products to use, which insert options you want to allow, activate code mode on a usergroup permission basis, or activate debug mode
Just reimport the product-xml-file, overwriting the old version, and reupload the photo-popup.php.
Please check in config_file_versions.txt whether the config file for one of the products you use has been changed since last update.
If the config file for one of your products has been updated, upload it from config files folder to your includes directory. Don't forget to take note of any any changes and settings in the old file and adapt the new one accordingly, if necessary.
Support and debugging
Ill help whenever I find the time. Before asking, please activate debug mode and post the information given there (especially under "Code". Please try the two links given - do they look "normal" and do they work? Debug information is only shown to Administrators (usergroup 6). Always state the products you use, including the software versions. Also read the infromation in the second post of this thread.
Hopes for the future
World peace, happiness, health and lot's of money
Version history
Version 3.5
new: supports attachments
new config file for CND Garage > 2.x
Version 3.4 / 3.4.1: Album dropdown not populated if using mysqli,Photopost not saving medium sized images, Fix for PHP 5.3.0 related bug (bugfixes)
Version 3.3 new/updated config file vBGallery (bugfixes); session-handling fixed; workaround for vbseo problem with Firefox in WYSIWYG editor
Important: template edits have to be redone!In every manually done template edit find: photo_popup.php?e=$editorid and replace with photo_popup.php?$session[sessionurl]e=$editorid
Version 3.2 new/updated product config file vBGallery (bugfixes), some additional error checking and error messages, debug information enhanced
Version 3.1 new/updated product config files: cnd garage (thanks to wottech for cooperation), photoplog categories, photoplog albums, photoplog, vBGallery; some additional cookie error checking; error checking in AdminCP removed; bugfixes from this thread.
Version 3.0 code reorganisation: implemeting of new galleries made easier by outsourcing of the relevant settings and database queries into seperate config files; new feature: support for vBGallery and Photoplog (lite?) added; minor bugfixes
3.0.1 Important bugfix if you are using vB albums: wrong database query in config file. To fix this, it's enough to reupload photo_popup_config_albums.
2.2 New feature: 2 plugins to show correct location and activity in "who's online". Bugfix: Bit of unphrased German removed from template (in pagenav dropdown). For upgrade from 2.1 just import product file, no uploads necessary.
2.1 New feature: Code mode. Lets you see the corresponding bb- or html-code instead of sending the image to the editor. If your browser allows that, the code is also copied to clipboard. Bugfix: Fixed a problem where pagination misbehaved when working with vB albums
2.0 New feature: Support for quickreply and quickedit!
1.4 New feature: Three new insert-options: thumbnail, medium and original image not linked themselves, but with a link to the gallery/album in the line below. This should be especially interesting for the users of the image resizer mod.
1.3 feature improvement/bugfix: default popup size is now determined before opening, not after (window.resize method causing issues in Firefox). Auto-close of the popup now using the YUI Event Listener; the needed library is already part of vB's standard distribution. New feature: title bar with "close this window"-link.
1.2 new feature: popup closes after editing is completed; smaller changes in Layout
1.1 new feature:set popup window size, to go with your table settings; minor bugfixes
1.0 Initial release
Development and bugfix releases for config files
If the need arises, there will be development or bugfix releases of config files between official releases of this mod. The zip file attached to this post will always be up to date. At the moment, there are no development/bugfix-releases.
Ok now were talking! thanks for the updates! The new options for having the link back to the album or gallery below is a nice workaround to the resize mod issue. Very slick!!!
If I disable the Full Quick Reply, then the box shows up in the editor. With the hack enabled, nothing shows up. I will try updating Full Quick Reply to the most recent (currently running v1.0) tonight to see if it changes anything.
I'm looking into how to make this work with vbGallery as well as CND Garage mods as well.
Support for PhotoPlog and PhotoPost vBGallery (we do not use PhotoPost any longer) - that would be great
If I had access to either, I'd probably do it - but since I don't, I can't. I was looking into PhotoPlog myself some time ago as a replacement for Photopost, but I wouldn't use it as it does not resize the images on upload. Can't have hundreds and thousands of 10 and 12 Megapixel photos on my server Now I've decided to wait for the albums system to ripen.
Concerning Photoplog: There is a light version, no? I might install it and have a look. I gather database stucture is the same with the pro version?
Only problem is the popup doesn't close, neither automatically when image is inserted or when post is submitted. Close on submit worked prior to upgrading.
mfowler, you just might have become my personal hero. Your bug report is absolutely justified, a stupid typo in the template. But this typo made me look at the javascript code once again - and it looks that I just may have figured out my problem with QR.
Just wait a little bit longer - there might be a major update in the pipeline. I think the integration of QR and inline editors may be worthy of 2.0
