What does it do?

When creating or editing a post, your users can open a popup window that will show them their pictures in the chosen gallery, albums or attachment system.


Detailed features list

• see second post

Upgrade from vB3 version
Please uninstall the old version at AdminCP->Plugins & Products->Manage Addons. Also remove all files you uploaded for the vB 3 version apart from the editor icon, which will be reused. This will be /photo_popup.php and all /includes/photo_popup_config_[product].php files, relative to your forum root. Then follow the installation instructions below.


Installation

1. Extract the archive.
2. Choose the products you want to use and rename the configuration files in _UPLOAD/includes/cel/cel_pp_config from .php_new to .php
3. If you're using Photopost Pro, you need to fill in some crucial information into the config file. Please see the config file for more information.
4. Upload the contents of folder "_UPLOAD" to your forum root. Note how the folder structure mirrors the folder structure in your forum root, so every file will be in the right place.
5. Now the Photo Popup and your chosen product configuration files will be present with default settings on your server. Later on, you may want to make adjustments there.
6. Install the product file at AdminCP->Plugins & Products->Manage Addons.
7. Template edits?
   • If you are using new editor, you're done.
   • If you are using old Editor and Template Modification System (TMS), you're done.
   • If none of the above two conditions apply to you, do the template modifications explained in _DOCS/OLD_EDITOR_ONLY-template_edits.txt manually for the editors you want the popup accessible from.

Basic Configuration

• Global configuration is done via AdminCP->Options->Cel Photo-Popup
• Additionally, you can make settings and overrides in the seperate product config files. See "Product Configuration" in third post.

Upgrade

• If upgrading within the vB4 series, just reimport the product-xml-file, overwriting the old version, and reupload all files (skip the icon if you're using a custom one).
• Most times you will be done, but please check in _DOCS/config_file_versions.txt whether the config file for one of the products you use has been changed since you last updated.
• If the config file for one of your products has been updated, rename _UPLOAD/includes/cel/cel_pp_config from .php_new to .php and transfer your custom settings from your current config file to the new one. Then upload it to your server.

** Please note that the config files for Photoplog and CND Garage have not been converted. I do not have access to vB4 versions of those two softwares for testing and developing. Whether this will change in future, I don't know - at the moment, apart from having no software access, I'm very much out of time. Anyway, the config files are not too hard to figure out and there is a short introduction to adapting them. Please feel free to convert or develop for other software, if you like, and submit to this thread or to me personally by PM.

### Don't forget to click install! ###

One thing I've noticed is that people viewing a thread with images posted using this mod they are shown as "Viewing attachment" in wol instead of "viewing thread" - is this just me?

[raisun]

I'd love some thoughts on this issue:

I've installed in a test environment of VB 4.1.2. In the popup window, all of the users photos are loaded on one page (in one case over 14K images). The configuration is set for 4 columns and 4 rows. The window shows the pagination links, but all of the images are in the same window. Any thoughts on why that might be?

[cellarius]

@raisun: Tested on 4.1.3 and I can't reproduce your issue.

[cellarius]

@cad2go: That would happen if the user looks at an inserted image enlarged, i.e. when that user is using the lightbox.

[cellarius]

Just to let everyone know: I have a (still very basic) first version ready for the new editor. Main issue atm is a bug present in the current alpha of 4.1.4, but hopefully this will be fixed before release. So, bottom line is, yes, there will be a version that works with the new editor.

Edit: There is another issue: Atm, there is not a single hook present in the new editor. W/o hooks, I won't be able to insert a button into the toolbar.

Hmmm...I reinstalled the addon and I still have the issue. For kicks I set Rows = 1 and columns = 1. I tried on an acct with only 5 images, and it still shows all 5 images on the first page. Here is the debug info:

[cellarius]

Ah, you're using vBGallery. I don't have that installed and can't test. Try the following:

In includes/cel/cel_pp_class_vbgallery.php find around line 201:

PHP Code:

                ORDER BY dateline DESC 


Below add:

PHP Code:

                LIMIT $limitlower, $perpage 


Does that solve the problem?

[raisun]

*bows* That fixed it, thank you.

One more question, much less critical. When using my account, everything seems to work great: I click on an image, it populates in the edit box...no issues. I click on another image, it adds it right below. One of my other admins has a different experience: When he clicks on an image, and then tries to click on another image, it overwrites the first image instead of adding the second one. Any thoughts on why that might be?

[cellarius]

It overwrites the image, as in: the second image replaces the first? No, I never heard of that one. What browser does he use? But, on the other hand, perhaps it will fix itself with the new editor
