This vBulletin 4 product imports external images in your posts from external servers or paths into a specific path, normally your forum's image folder.
Differently than the previous product Image Cache for vBulletin 3.x., it parses the posts at regular intervals for new images and replaces the external references in the background. Also, instead of using only a single folder, it creates folders for years and months, making it much easier to handle large quantities of images. The source and destination image URL's are stored into database, too, avoiding unnecessary duplicates.
It moves and optionally converts images from one place to another. It is a handy tool in order to keep your images local to your forums.
Version 1.0.4 is temporarily in BETA stage until the users have confirmed the newly requested features.
Version 1.0.5 is still in BETA stage. It adds a new bunch of additional features, one of which allows you to test your mathematical understanding ... and a few other to fine-tune CURL and socket timeouts, and resizing on the fly of too large images. If you don't know what these options do, please leave them at their default values.
I wanted to test your PHP version against just a specific thread to see how it worked, so I added something y2ksw showed me in a previous post to his code.
$SQL = "SELECT postid, " . TABLE_PREFIX . "post.dateline, pagetext, forumid
FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "post join " . TABLE_PREFIX . "thread on (" . TABLE_PREFIX . "post.threadid = " . TABLE_PREFIX . "thread.threadid)
WHERE iei_parsed = 0 AND threadid=28420
AND pagetext LIKE '%[/IMG]%'
ORDER BY postid";
When I did that with your PHP file, I get an SQL error, while the same piece of code addition in y2ksw's code executed correctly ONLY against that thread ID?
I like the idea of keeping the original filenames (or a variant thereof) and thank you for showing us that method, but I wanted to ensure it would work cleanly on our site before I turned it ON live against our whole forum.
Ami I missing something? Sorry, I'm not a programmer ...

My SQL query was altered a little so I could disable it by forum if I wanted (I added a JOIN statement), the old query was still there commented out- you could try putting the original query back in it and see what happens.
But this is my last post on this issue- this is not my mod, I'm not supporting any changes... I released my code so someone who knew what they were doing could implement it at their risk if they chose. I'm not going to pollute this mod's thread with my own code support- if the author chooses to implement and/or support it that is his business.
I have updated this product with a BETA 1.0.4 version (1.0.2 is stable), in order to allow testing the new features, such as multiple tags, reverse order, forum ID's, original file names and so stuff.
I have tested this on my production site with 800.000+ posts and it worked. However, until I have tested this on another, much larger board, I will not make it an official release.
Thanks to all who have made contributions and have tried it so far
Hmm am not sure if its working or not lol. Does it not Cache external images than am confused
Right click on images in your posts and check the URL to them... they should have local URLs (to your website) instead of the original URLs they had when you posted them.
It's not immediate, the task runs every 10 minutes and if you have a backlog of posts it could be days or weeks before you catch up to recent posts.
