Dont forget to click

Update 03/24/2005
If you get error loging out of album:
in page_header.php, line 110

replace

PHP Code:

"url_logout" => (!empty($url_logout)) ? $site_sess->url($url_logout) : $site_sess->url(ROOT_PATH."logout.php"), 


by

PHP Code:

"url_logout" =>(!empty($url_logout))?$site_sess->url($url_logout):$site_sess->url($url_app."login.php?do=logout&u=$user_info[user_id]"), 


Update 10/30/2004
Since meny people have problem with vB usergroup, I've add Usergroups arrays,
Now you can set multiple custom user groups to be USER, USER_WAITING, or ADMIN
By default:

$waitinggroups = array(3, 4); // vB Group should be waiting for moderate. seperate each group by comma
$usergroups = array(2, 7); // Groups that are USERS in album. seperate each group by comma
$admingroups = array(6); // vB groups that are ADMINS in album. seperate each group by comma

Update 10/20/2004
Sincemeny people ignore to config the "VB_TABLE_PREFIX" inconfiguration,I've pull all the prefix into one place, and make STRONGrequest tocheck this one.
If your album works fine, you dont have to update your files.
If you do want to apply the changes, here's where you can check:

constants.php
define('VB_TABLE_PREFIX',''); // your vb tableprefix. vB default is blank
define('SESSIONS_TABLE', VB_TABLE_PREFIX.'session');
define('USERS_TABLE', VB_TABLE_PREFIX.'user');

sessions.php
define('VB_TEMPLATE_TABLE', VB_TABLE_PREFIX.'template');

Update 06/25/2004
Clean up some codes, add some more instructions. Adding constants for Cookie prefix, cookie timeout, album folder ...
If your album works fine, you dont have to update your files.
If you do want to ... work again, just follow all the steps


Update 06/22/04
IF you have "Remember username/password?" problem with album (Album session dont remember your logged in if you go directly to album - installed before 06/22/04)

Edit the attached sessions.php, and replace the VBLICENCE_NUMBER, and upload to your album/include/sessions.php

OR

Manually edit:

In 4images sessions.php

Look for

PHP Code:

 if ($this->read_cookie_data("bbpassword")==$this->user_info['user_password']&&$this->user_info['user_level'] > USER_AWAITING) { 


replace by

PHP Code:

 if ($this->read_cookie_data("bbpassword")==md5($this->user_info['user_password']. 'XXXXXX')&&$this->user_info['user_level'] != USER_AWAITING) { 


CHANGE XXXXXX with your Licence Number, located on top of any of your vB file

NOTE: for those runing into table doesnt exist problem, check your VB_TABLE_PREFIX variable

Table '4images.template' doesn't exist
DB Error: Bad SQL Query: SELECT sessionhash FROM session
Table '4images.session' doesn't exist

Great hack, works like a charm, most of the time.

Sometimes though, I just installed it so I'm not sure why or anything none of the links work. I can click wahtever a million times and nothing happens, it doesn't even try going to the link.

Anyone with idea's?

EDIT: BTW, I'm running 3.0.3 w/ 1.7 vbb wasn't a fresh install, but 4images was.

Fixed: The disappearing login box. I replaced the "page_header.php" form the working "gallery1" includes folder into gallery2 and gallery3 includes folders. At first, I edited the page_header.php file separately for each gallery increasing the chances of me making a mistake. So, the cause of the problem was poor copying and pasting on my part. :cross-eyed:

Not Fixed: The logout problem causing this error: "An error occurred while attempting to log you out. Click here to log out."
Most likely it is another editing problem on my part. So I am going to take my time and look over everything very carefully. And see if I can find another mistake I may of made. I'll let you know how it turns out.

Thanks again for your help.

good that you have it sort out.

there's something changed from 1.7.0 to 1.7.1 that deletingmyuserid value from the logout link. I have few copies in 1.7.0 workingfine, and one in 1.7.1 giving that error.

The idea is to add your userid into logout link.

will come back later with a fix.

try this:

in page_header.php, line 110

replace

PHP Code:

"url_logout" => (!empty($url_logout)) ? $site_sess->url($url_logout) : $site_sess->url(ROOT_PATH."logout.php"), 


by

PHP Code:

"url_logout"=>(!empty($url_logout))?$site_sess->url($url_logout):$site_sess->url($url_app."login.php?do=logout&u=$user_info[user_id]"), 


and in sessions.php, take out the url_logout line:
replace

PHP Code:

$url_logout        = $url_app."login.php?do=logout&u={myuserid}"; 


by

PHP Code:

//$url_logout        = $url_app."login.php?do=logout&u={myuserid}";

I tried the new code, only in gallery1, and then signed in and out of gallery1 and the same error happened. The error is nothing major, basically just one extra click for the users.

But everything else is working amazingly well!

Error is error, and I still dont like this error :>

I tried on my album, and it works well.

when you get your mouse over logout link, do you see your useridattheend of that link? it should besomethinglike.../forum/login.php?do=logout&u=xxx

or you can try this code instead. if it gives error or doesnt work, give the other one back. I didnt test this one right now.

PHP Code:

"url_logout"=>(!empty($url_logout))?$site_sess->url($url_logout):$site_sess->url($url_app."login.php?do=logout&u=".$user_info['user_id']), 


regarding to Chrissicom post on his update for version 1.7.1:https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=286

I dont see any differences in the filesconstants.phpandsessions.phpthatneed for the integration, exept forchangingcookietimeout valueand thisline: * Modified to workwithvBulletin3.0.6byChrissicom *
My code is some kinda messy, but I still ignore his constribution tothecode. The other two files might be for 4-images improvement, notforthis integration.
I am sorry but this Chrissicom "law" student is really funny though.

[nosaj]

when you get your mouse over logout link, do you see your useridattheend of that link? it should besomethinglike.../forum/login.php?do=logout&u=xxx

Right now when holding the mouse over the Log Out on Gallery1 there is nothing after =
example: .../forum/login.php?do=logout&u=

When holding the mouse over the Log Out in the forum, the user number is shown after =
example: .../forum/login.php?do=logout&u=1

note: my page_header.php file was modified once before for this mod:
http://www.4homepages.de/forum/index.php?topic=3842.0

should I attach my page_header.php file to see if I am doing something wrong?

yes, or PM me your url, I will take a quick look

[nosaj]

Wow you are good! I am now error free!

I am going to make a post about giving credit (on our sites) to people like mtha who help many in this forum and who ask for nothing in return.

note to others: I will post my site url to show as a sample of how you can use 1 vb forum with multiple 4images galleries once the site is made public.
