Phototopost features block on forumhome

hi people,

I see people who are heavenly modifying there boards to get this done.This is actually not needed.Photopost includes a files that does this automatically

1)install the plugin
2)tempate modification

template FORUMHOME find this code

<!-- /main -->
<br />
<br />

replace with

<!-- /main -->
 
<br />
$photopostfeature
<br />

remember to modify the path to inc_features.php(this is a PhotoPost file) if your photopost installation is different from mine

that's all

enjoy
all done no more modifications to the original vb files needed

possible problems
Question:After installation i get an error message like

Warning: mysql_fetch_row(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /photopost/inc_features.php on line xx

Warning: mysql_fetch_row(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /photopost/inc_features.php on line xx

Answer:This Could be because you did not set a value for the $ppdbprefix (database table prefix) Photopost uses.Open your config-int.php and set the correct value for the $ppdbprefix variable

You can also set this in your Photopost Administration panel under "edit integration" (PhotoPost Database Table Prefixes) field

question i don't know what my path should be can you help me ?

PHP Code:

<?php
phpinfo(INFO_VARIABLES);
?>

and look at the value of $_SERVER['PATH_TRANSLATED']; this is the serverpath to the file you are currently vieuwing within your webbrowser when you are done remove this file from your server (security )

Okay, hopefully a easy answer to this one, installed it fine. However, if you wanted it to show on all pages and not just the forumhome. How would you do this ?

No takers

Dows this work on 3.7 too??? and is a photopost connection in the profil available for 6.x not 2.4.x thank you.

[JustJon]

I upgraded to vB 3.7 and it worked fine. I just upgraded photopost to 6.1 and now I get black thumbnails on my forum home. I read above and there is a / at the end of my data directory, so that's not it.

What can I do to fix this? Thanks.

[WATW]

Not sure what the fix is, but I've got pp6.1 and vb371 with photopostfeature running ok on one site where the db is shared, but getting black images on another site where there's one db for vb and one for pp.

[WATW]

just checked and the / wasn't in place in the $data_dir line in config-int.php, so I've added it and now eveything works OK

[Mudcrutch]

Working on 3.7.2 for me.

I have this photo post feature on my forum index. It use to change the picture after every refresh of the page with random pictures from members gallery. After all my upgrades it no longer changes. Can some one tell me which file to edit to have it randomly select pictures. I remember I had to change a line of code. Thanks in advance
