4images Gallery 1.7

A lot of people, both here and at 4homepages.de have been requesting for a mod/hack that would integrate vBulletin 3 RCX with 4images 1.7 lately. The solutions are scattered around the forums, but nobody has it all in one page.

So I've decided put them all togather, and release it, so it will be easier for people to do the intigration successfully.

Please note that all the codes in this hack/mod are property of Jan and mtha.

I have tested this on vBulletin 3.0.0 RC3 and it worked successfully.

Features:

• Uses your existing vBulletin powered forum's login account for authentication.
• Uses your existing vBulletin powered forum's whos online feature
• Can be modified to display any information from your existing vBulletin database, perticularly from the "user" table, which means you can display any information about the logged in user.
• Since it is integrated with the database, you can display any gallery information such as latest picture, how many pictures a member have submitted etc... on your vBulletin powered forum.
• Extra modifications can be found here

Ok , i just installed it. However trying to login into the 4IMAGES admin only takes me to the FORUMS URL. It doesnt accept me in my 4images.. Also upon installing the SESSIONS.php my templates became jumbled a little bit. Am i missing a step in the configuration of sessions.php? Constants.php worked fine as thats the same from the vb 2.x installation. But what needs to be fully changed in the sessions.php file?

That's exactly what it did to me also.

hehe, maybe I'll need to check out what's that in the file, when I have time

btw, did you check the 4image URL in include/constants.php?

PHP Code:

// If 4images has problems to find out the right URL, define it here.
define('SCRIPT_URL', 'http://www.yourdomain.com/album'); //no trailing slash

There's nothing different from the original 4images album except for it's using vB usertable. Other functions depend on the add-on you put in, and templates ..

What do you mean about the thumbnails?
Have you got Netpbm installed?
