Rate my Photo
A HotOrNot Clone for your Forum

I'm offering my hard work for free, without even a single copyright line in footer, expecting that some of you will appreciate the time that I spent for coding it and they will donate something.

Demo: http://www.teriakis.com/vb423/photorate.php


1.- What's this?

For first is better to say what is not! This is not a Gallery AddOn. Even if I've added the ability to search and list photos by specific criteria, still it can't be used a Gallery. RateMyPhoto is a HotOrNot Clone, where users post photos to be rated by other members. Normally the rater does not knows the current rating to avoid giving the same. Also rating just specific photo(s) is not possible. All photos appear on the queqe even if there is a choice to skip a photo to rate it at a later time. Double rating is restricted.

2.- Features

• Unilimited (one level) categories
• Photos appearing in queqe for rating
• User can skip a photo to rate it at a later time
• User can select to rate all photos from all categories, or specify a category.
• Helpful counter on how many unrated photos has the user (Total and by Category)
• Browsing Photos by specific criteria is possible:
  • By Category
  • Mimimum amount of votes
  • Min-Max rating
  • Post last XX days
  • By Username
  • Show all photos, or photos that user has rated, or photos that user hasn't rated yet.
• Listing can be ordered by:
  • Rating
  • Number of Votes
  • Username
  • Post date
  • For all above can be Ascending or Descending
• Special Tab in user profile with all photos that he has post for rating with statistics
• My Photos section in Usercp with rating statistics and options for:
  • Edit (Photo can't be changed)
  • Hide
  • Activate
  • Delete
• Sidebar Statistics block
• Moderator can Approve/Reject/Edit Photos in ModCP
• Usergroup Permissions:
  • Can View Photos
  • Can Rate Photos
  • Can Post Photos for Rating
  • Photos need approval or not.
  • Can Moderate photos

thanks Nick the update rocks, it works wonders..

I was testing the delete button and it works perfectly, but wouldn't be easier to add the delete button for already approved and rated photos? Im just saying because the only way you can delete any photo now as an admin is before you vote for them, once you vote there's no going back. It would be great to have better control.

I know this that's why I had doubts if it was good to add it or not. Finally I decided to add it just to have the PHP code ready, and when I'll find some free time I'll move the button in another place. The problem is to find a place which is always available with or without vote.

great, thanks for the explanation, Ill wait for the update.. !

Just another quick question.. Is there a possibility to know how many participants have uploaded their photos?

[badstraw]

I just want to let you know that now when you click to delete your own photo it doesn't work, the button doesn't do anything. But if you click on the delete button as an admin it works.

And Is there a possibility to know how many participants have uploaded their photos?

Hey Nick I hope you can help me pelase..

I have 18 photos awaiting approval, When I click update photo status I get this error message :

Fatal error: Class 'DBTECH_GALLERY' not found in public_html/dbtech/gallery/hooks/navigation_tab_complete.php on line 33

When I uploaded just a couple of pictures to test the mod it was working great, but it seems that now that the users uploaded more that a few photos it doesn't work. I would really appreciate your help man i really need it.

I tried to disable dbtech gallery but that doesn't make any difference, I would really like to make it work..

[badstraw]

I commented these lines on /dbtech/gallery/hooks/navigation_tab_complete.php :

	

//     $galfile = DBTECH_GALLERY::fetch_file_path(0, 'plain', $gal);

//	foreach ((array)DBTECH_GALLERY::$instances as $instance)
	{
		if ($instance['navbar'] == 1)
		{
			$gallink = $galfile . '?gal=' . $instance['shortname'];
			$tabname = 'dbtech_gallery_' . $instance['shortname'];
			$submenu = array();

			if (DBTECH_GALLERY::fetch_gallery_perms('view', $instance) || DBTECH_GALLERY::fetch_gallery_perms('admin', $instance))
			{
				$submenu['view'] = array(
					'root' => $tabname,
					'type' => 'link',
					'url' => $gallink . '&do=main',
					'title' => $vbphrase['dbtech_gallery_nav_main'],
					'name' => 'dbtech_gallery_view',
					'children' => 0
				);

Now the error code is gone but nothing happens when I click on update photo status... maybe a bug?



I would really appreciate your help..

Think you are posting in the wrong thread,

[RichieBoy67]

Nick,

I think it would be a good idea to bold and align the nav links(post photo and my photos) to the left. Will be easier to see.

Anyone know why this is happening?

On the Rate Photo's page the PNG image you're rating is wider than the sidebar displaying the filter.

See IMG for example. How do i fix this? I can size the max width of the photo to 600 to make it fit, but then this downscales the image and makes it look poor quality and hard to see. Is there a way the image can open like the other thumbnails do in the other pages?
