In the Works.
- with many choices of location.

To keep the hack so that it needs no template edits I did this.

$search_text = '$navbar';
$vbulletin->templatecache['FORUMHOME'] = str_replace($search_text,
$search_text.fetch_template('forumhome_vbgallery'),$vbulletin->templatecache['FORUMHOME']);

Translation:
- Search template FORUMHOME for $navbar and place template forumhome_vbgallery after.


Hook Location : forumhome_complete
- Edit: Forumhome: Gallery Main

Search for:
$search_text = '$navbar';

replace with
$search_text = '<!-- /main -->';

You may have to edit template:
- forumhome_vbgallery

and add: <br />
after: <if condition="$gal_imagebits">

I have planes of a dropdown in AdminCP with 4-5 locations.

- $navbar (* current location)
- Above / below header
- Above what's going on box
- Inside what's going on box

Totally Agree!

The first thing I do to the way my pics are displayed is take all that data away. It's much cleaner looking, and 97% of all people don't care about exactly how many kb or dimensions it is -- they just want to look at the pictures!

Those 3% that do care about dimensions, they probably know how to find them (by looking at properties of the pic).

Thanks Zachariah!

I'm having a bit of trouble.

I feel I installed everything properly but am getting a "gallery turned off" message at the top of the forum index though I know the gallery is still on.

Any ideas? Thanks.
