Mini Mods - highslide integration with vB attachments - lightbox alternative - inline too.

This is an awesome mod! Thank you so much. Installed easily into 3.5.6 without any problems at all.

[clicks on INSTALLED]

I have to add my vote for making this work with [img] as well. It would make this mod attractive to many more people.

Thanks again!

ok third time lucky... "Which version of the highslide JS file must i use to see the loading graphic which isn't available in the latest version due to a bug... please advise" - there.,.. maybe this time... there's always hope, nothing like rattling off the same old question time & time again just to bring home the fact that whatever you say or do or whatever is a complete and utter total waste of time...cheers

I used the latest release of Highslide (3.1.7) and vB 3.5.6 and I see the loading graphic just fine (example).

I cant remember if you have already been asked/confirmed this.. but did you edit the path to the graphics in highslide.js as is detailed in the mod setup instructions?

Is it something else I messed up, or does this mod mess with the attachment permissions? Before I installed this, guest could see a link to open the picture, when they clicked the link they would get a prompt to log in - NOW, guest see a link to the picture, when they click it, the picture opens in a new window.

So how do I block guest access to files and pictures? I checked the guest / not logged in group permissions and it is set so that guest do NOT have permission to download attachments!!

Looks like something on your end. Mine are not like that, still the same. You need to login or register to view. Try settting to "enlarge in same window" option, see if that works.

Hi Guys,for those that want to see a working demo of a highslide working just have a look here.

Demo

Its not from any mod from vb but a site i am currently under construction..using coppermine...I don't think it can be bridged with vb..you will need to find out, but can be stand alone or a link from vb site.
I use it for me family site on its own with other mods too....

Just wanted people to no what highslide looks like..just click a image and WOW in ya face.Any more info please contact me.

Any idea what the problem is? All the code it fine.

Apparently ir works somewhat when i use absoluted in the urls. Im wondering where would i put the files? I put them in the site root: pspcrazy.com, the forums , and the forums subdirectory yet none of it works css wise :|

However, one thing I've come across is for those who are unregistered or are in a usergroup that doesn't have access to image attachments - where they used to see just a text link to an image file - the thumbnail image is now displayed to them! The good news is.....when clicked on, nothing happens, other than it simply saying "Loading" overlayed on the thumbnail image.

So my questions are....is it possible to get the text link of the image back and if not, is there a way to changing the "Loading" text to something else, such as "Access Denied" or something similar, not globally, but just for this scenario? As with the mod in place, they don't get thrown to the "not logged in or you do not have permission" page now, which was the previous behaviour.

Thanks again, fantastic mod.

See my original post above (quoted) and it looks like someone else has run into a similar thing (see kevcj's post above, quoted...) - mine don't open thankfully unlike his situation - so any word on why this happens and how to "fix" or workaround it?

Thanks.
