Picture and Album Gallery for vB4

This is a simple mod written out of frustration with the lack of such a basic feature in vb4 (and vb3, etc....)

Features:
Adds a Gallery drop-down menu to the nav bar OR to the navtab which allows browsing AND searching of all pictures and albums on your site.

The search function searches the album title, album description, picture caption AND username.

Note: If guest permission AdminCP->Usergroups->UserGroup Manager->Unregistered/Not Logged In->Can View Albums is "yes" then they will be able to browse album and picture thumbnails - they may NOT be able to view the full-size pictures. To hide the gallery menu from guest see Settings below.

The gallery and menu is phrased.

Tested with Vbulletin 4.0.2/3 (note: earlier versions have not been tested and are not supported) AND vBadvanced 4 beta1.

Settings:
None are needed - it does what it says on the tin

.

AdminCP->Options->User Profile:Album Options "Pictures Per Page" and "Albums Per Page" control the number of thumbnails displayed per page in each gallery type.

If you get images overlapping the borders then you have inconsistent thumbnail sizes - you need to:
AdminCP->Maintenance->Update Counters->Rebuild Attachment Thumbnails

If you want to hide the Gallery menu from guests then edit the Gallery navbar (or navtab) popup menu plugin and change $allowguests = from true to false

Installation

Unzip the download package and copy the contents of the UPLOAD folder into your forum folder.
Go to the VB AdminCP->Plugins & Products click "Manage Products". The click "Add/ImportProduct" at the bottom of the page.
Click "Browse" button and point to the product-gallery-(etc).XML file included in this ZIP package.
Click "Import"
Once the gallery import is complete, click "Add/Import Product" again and select EITHER product_gallery_navtab-xxx.xml OR product_gallery_navbar-xxx.xml depending on where you want the gallery menu to appear (navbar or navtab).

... all done

Updates

To update from an older version you MUST uninstall the product (admincp->manage products: delete Picture and Album Gallery). Then re-install as above.

v1.08
tested on vb4.0.3
v1.07
Fixed navtab menu - picture and album URLS swapped
Converted navtab/bar into products to make installation easier.
v1.06
Due to popular demand added navtab drop down menu (with help from TimberFloorAu

)
Cleaned up code and templates
v1.05
Phrased menu items - upgrade is not required unless you use other languages.
v1.04b
fixed database connection issue
deleted unused template from product xml
v1.03b
Changed permissions to allow guests to view thumbnail galleries
Added phrasing for main gallery code.
Removed navbar template - replaced by plug-in code
Changed album display template from albumbit to album_latestbit (it works better!)
Various template mods to clean up display
v1.02b
Wasn't remembering search query between pages.

This is my first "proper" product so comment/criticism/etc is welcome

I have uploaded the files to forum root and imported the xml file.

Dropdown menu isn't showing and when I try to access the files directly i get the following messages:

albumall.php

PHP Code:


			
Warning: array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #2 is not an array in [path]/global.php(29) : eval()'d code on line 625

pictureall.php

Sounds like the install isn't correct. Check the plugin manager lists the gallery menu and that the picall.php file is in your forum directory.

Or a plug-in I should disable? Once that's resolved, I'll be taking advantage of this immediately!

There are no edits made to any vb files or templates and only a single hook location is used in the navbar. You could disable the gallery plugi-n and edit the scripts to substitute your own navbar, etc, then call the PHP scripts directly from your own code.

Just to be sure I uninstalled it and installed again. No error. Product Installed.

Both files is in my forum /root

In plugin manager "Gallery popup menu" is listed as active.

Still nothing.. this is weird.

Hey,

Doesn't the act of calling that hook use resources, or am I mistaken? I'd like a way to disable this mod attempting to use that hook, and just add all the nav links myself manually into my system.

Kolbi · #38 03-10-2010, 06:10 PM

thank you!!!

Works for me...

Perhaps a Tab at the Top could be nice:
Content Forum Gallery

Disable the Gallery popup menu navbar plug-in in the plug in manager (set Plug in is Active to No) and then add direct links to the gallery PHP scripts in your own navigation e.g. your_forum_home_page_url/albumall.php and your_forum_home_page_url/picall.php.

Yes, it is weird

If the gallery menu isn't appearing in the navbar then the hook location isn't in the navbar template (or the vb system has been severely hacked). try disabling any other nav mods you have.

Perhaps you can phrase your hack because I would like to translate it for me to German
