Major Additions - Ultimate Media Gallery LITE

What is it ?
It's a gallery - what do you think ?

Why another Gallery ? There is no gallery, it can do all the things you need. Categories and Images, every gallery can do, but ...
... does anotherone have passwords for categories or let a category visible at a certain time ? Which gallery supports
Medias ? JPG, GIF and PNG are standard - but what happend with APE, ASF, ASX, DIVX, AVI, MIDI, MP3, MPG, SWF, FLV ... ? or what happends with Links (Videos) ?
No Problem for the Ultimate Media Gallery ! approx. 20 Medias + approx. 20 URLs are supported. The best to it, all in the forums - no external player.
My thanks goes to @nix (Goldbrick) for his permission to use some parts of his Mod.

Categories, Media, Comments and also the Searchfunction works for permission. Which may not be seen, e.g. with the search one does not found.
The gallery is not integrated in the forum like many different - from performance reasons. The number of Queries per side is on the average with approx. 10-12.

You need a Demo for vBulletin4 ?
You will find some of my ported Mods here.

[TCB]

Is it possible to allow an usergroup to add youtube videos (by link), and have these submission being added to a moderating queue?

[Coroner]

You can give a general permission for (upload) Links (like youtube, wannachallege ...)
When a category says: media needs to be approved = YES

The Admin, Mod have to moderate those media (or comments).

So, the answer is definately: YES

[dt_truck11]

idk if its something im doin wrong but when i renamed the module for vbadvanced the module title still displays as thumbnail random when I have it set as Photo Album or should do i need to go to vba to find the solution to this? any help would be great

[JeffG2583]

Coronor you've been awesome at supporting this! When I upload a .WMV file, the lightbox that pops up with the Windows Media Player in it is tiny. I've tried changing the media sizes and it seems to do no good. Any suggestions? Thanks.

[Coroner]

Which browser do you use ?
I have the same problem with Safari (need to scroll down)

[JeffG2583]

I'm using IE6 on this PC. Just tried it on another with IE8 and got the same results. It's making the lightbox that movie maker is embedded in as big as the big WMV picture you click to see the video.

[Coroner]

Sorry, don't know what it could be.
I've tested it with IE6 also, but used a WMA file - see my image below.

I have just purchased the Ultimate Media Gallery and I'd like to make a homepage merging UMG and forum.

An example would be:

http://www.alfaowner.com/aohome.php

Any hint?
Is there a plugin I can install?

Thanks

[Coroner]

Please, explain what you mean with - merging.

A link for the navbar ?
vBa or vBCMS ?
