Dont forget to click

Update 03/24/2005
If you get error loging out of album:
in page_header.php, line 110

replace

PHP Code:

"url_logout" => (!empty($url_logout)) ? $site_sess->url($url_logout) : $site_sess->url(ROOT_PATH."logout.php"), 


by

PHP Code:

"url_logout" =>(!empty($url_logout))?$site_sess->url($url_logout):$site_sess->url($url_app."login.php?do=logout&u=$user_info[user_id]"), 


Update 10/30/2004
Since meny people have problem with vB usergroup, I've add Usergroups arrays,
Now you can set multiple custom user groups to be USER, USER_WAITING, or ADMIN
By default:

$waitinggroups = array(3, 4); // vB Group should be waiting for moderate. seperate each group by comma
$usergroups = array(2, 7); // Groups that are USERS in album. seperate each group by comma
$admingroups = array(6); // vB groups that are ADMINS in album. seperate each group by comma

Update 10/20/2004
Sincemeny people ignore to config the "VB_TABLE_PREFIX" inconfiguration,I've pull all the prefix into one place, and make STRONGrequest tocheck this one.
If your album works fine, you dont have to update your files.
If you do want to apply the changes, here's where you can check:

constants.php
define('VB_TABLE_PREFIX',''); // your vb tableprefix. vB default is blank
define('SESSIONS_TABLE', VB_TABLE_PREFIX.'session');
define('USERS_TABLE', VB_TABLE_PREFIX.'user');

sessions.php
define('VB_TEMPLATE_TABLE', VB_TABLE_PREFIX.'template');

Update 06/25/2004
Clean up some codes, add some more instructions. Adding constants for Cookie prefix, cookie timeout, album folder ...
If your album works fine, you dont have to update your files.
If you do want to ... work again, just follow all the steps


Update 06/22/04
IF you have "Remember username/password?" problem with album (Album session dont remember your logged in if you go directly to album - installed before 06/22/04)

Edit the attached sessions.php, and replace the VBLICENCE_NUMBER, and upload to your album/include/sessions.php

OR

Manually edit:

In 4images sessions.php

Look for

PHP Code:

 if ($this->read_cookie_data("bbpassword")==$this->user_info['user_password']&&$this->user_info['user_level'] > USER_AWAITING) { 


replace by

PHP Code:

 if ($this->read_cookie_data("bbpassword")==md5($this->user_info['user_password']. 'XXXXXX')&&$this->user_info['user_level'] != USER_AWAITING) { 


CHANGE XXXXXX with your Licence Number, located on top of any of your vB file

NOTE: for those runing into table doesnt exist problem, check your VB_TABLE_PREFIX variable

Table '4images.template' doesn't exist
DB Error: Bad SQL Query: SELECT sessionhash FROM session
Table '4images.session' doesn't exist

I have edited every single file Again and still no go. If i close my browser and return to the gallery directly i am still logged out.

[mtha]

do you have your forum setup sessions ad .mogisland.com ? seems like you have your forum setup in a subdomain.

It seems like your album didnt read cookie at all

if you want to try,
look for

PHP Code:

function start_session($user_id = GUEST, $login_process = 0) {
    global $site_db;
    $this->user_info = $this->load_user_info($user_id); 


add bellow:

PHP Code:

echo 'User Id: '.$user_id.' - '.$this->read_cookie_data("bbuserid").'<br>- Cookie password: '.$this->read_cookie_data("bbpassword").'<br>- User encripted password: '. md5($this->user_info['user_password'].''.VBLICENCE_NUMBER).'<br>- Input: '. $this->user_info['user_password'].''.VBLICENCE_NUMBER; 


you have to open a NEW browser, in order to see the result.

lol.
I wrote the hack based on a standard vb version, which has bb as cookieprefix

You have your cookieprefix being moguslandforums

that's why

now you need to do some more work:

edit the sessions.php


replace all bb by moguslandforums


they are in bbuserid, bbpassword, bbstyleid (this one is not important), bblastvisit

Hi all,
integration in vB3 works fine. I've just a problem when I logout out of the forum or the 4images Gallery I get a message saying that there was a problem to log me out.
Is that normal or missed I something ?

I believe that has to do with the..

Open: "forums/includes/functions.php"

Find:
$name = COOKIE_PREFIX . $name;

Replace with:
if ($name != 'sessionhash')
{
$name = COOKIE_PREFIX . $name;
}

Close and Save: forums/includes/functions.php


Someone correct me if I'm wrong?

[Onkel_Tom]

I have this kind of code in my functions.php of vB but still get the error while login off. I checked my code and the instructions three times to be sure that all parts are correct

that's the direct post where I have the fix, for vB 3.0.1

it should be included in the instruction file

pay attention to these lines:

in sessions.php

$url_logout = $url_app."login.php?do=logout&u={myuserid}";

includes/page_header.php
$myuserid = $user_info['user_id'];

MTHA, That did it. I feel like such a tool that I didnt think of that, when I read your post I literally smacked my forehead. heheh.

Perhaps you should put something in your installation instructions now if people are having issues with the cookie to check that there cookie is 'bb' or something else because I have a cookie issue on my computer with a 'bb' prefix cookie and thats why I had to change mine. Perhaps some other people have a different cookie prefix as well and it wouldnt hurt to add that in your instructions.

My INTEGRATION works PERFECTLY so far and its all thanks to MTHA for following up on MatrixGL's work. I would say lets nominate this for Hack of the Month as it wasnt an easy integration to code up it seems heeheh.


Way to go MTHA, I salute you for being a pillar of the VB community! You literally ROCK!

Everyone with 4IMAGES and VB needs this hack.

well, make life easier, I make the file ... more complicated, by adding some more variables on top.
have fun

Hey MTHA, I am having a text error where Registered board members are appearing as GUESTS and not Registered Members on the Comments Portion of the Gallery, any ideas? My Gallery is closed off to Guests and Only Registered Members can post so he didnt post as a guest.
