Social Group and Album Enhancements - Make a forum Gallery from User Albums

UPDATE:
Well, there is another hack been released which is more or less the same as my initial hack, so I recommend that you all use that from now on
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=172215

INTRO:

This is a crude attempt at making a forum gallery from all the user albums on your vb 3.7.x forum.

I can imagine that there are many other better ways to achieve this, but I think my method is quick and easy enough to be shared with other users on this forum.

It is also my first attempt at a vbulletin hack, so forgive my naivety re all this.

STEPS:

1. Copy the default vbulletin album.php file and rename to (say) gallery.php
2. Open this new file in a text / php editor and follow the instructions found in the attached galleryFromAlbumsMod.txt file.
3. That's it!

DEMO:

• http://www.badminton.ie/forum/gallery.php

HISTORY:

• 02.03.2008: 1.02 - Changed code to make sure only public albums are shown, added clause for guest navigation when paging, and hide username from top navbar.
  ==
• 02.03.2008: 1.01 - Changed code in order to page through all forum public user albums
  ==
• 01.03.2008: 1.00 - Initial basic gallery

NOTES:

• You need to set "Can View Albums" to yes in usergroup permissions. The amount of albums per page is decided by the value in "Albums Per Page" in "User Profile: Album Options" in adminCP options.

• The amount of albums per page is decided by the value in "Albums Per Page" in "User Profile: Album Options" in adminCP options.
  ==
• User css has an effect on the gallery look. (I have defaulted it to userid 1)

COMING SOON:

• Separate template for the gallery listing, which will enable the username to be displayed beside each respective album.

Your g3.php seems correct to me, and from what I can tell it works as mine does:

e.g. I can page and view albums ok:
http://www.7lanet.com/vb/g3.php?u=1&page=4

Though you have to change the file name around line 1536 to the same name as you file name. (e.g. at moment in the file g3.php and you have gallery.php for the paging links)

Is there a way to get it to say only "Albums" instead of "X-user's Albums" on the category top? Thanks, rg.
