What does it do?

When creating or editing a post, your users can open a popup window that will show them pictures in the chosen gallery or albums. Now also supports attachments: Reuse what you uploaded! A click on the picture inserts it into the editor.

Works with

• vBulletin 3.7.x and 3.8.x, vB Blog (probably anything that uses the vB editor)
• Photopost Pro
• Photopost vBGallery
• Photoplog
• CNG Garage

Detailed features list

• see second post

Installation

1. Extract the archive.
2. Upload the contents of folder "UPLOAD" to your forum root. Note how the folder structure in this folder mirrors the folder structure in your forum root, so every file will be in the right place.
3. a) If you intend to use only the vBulletin forums albums, proceed to step 4.
   b) If you intend to use any other gallery product, see "Product configuration" in second post.
4. Install the product.
5. a) If you are using Template Modification System (TMS), you're done.
   b) If not, do the template modifications explained in template_edits.txt manually.

Basic Configuration

• if you're using only vB albums, everything is done via AdminCP->Options->Photo-Popup
• Decide there how many rows and columns the popup table will have, what gallery products to use, which insert options you want to allow, activate code mode on a usergroup permission basis, or activate debug mode
• See "Product Configuration" in second post.

Upgrade

• Just reimport the product-xml-file, overwriting the old version, and reupload the photo-popup.php.
• Please check in config_file_versions.txt whether the config file for one of the products you use has been changed since last update.
• If the config file for one of your products has been updated, upload it from config files folder to your includes directory. Don't forget to take note of any any changes and settings in the old file and adapt the new one accordingly, if necessary.

• Version 3.0 code reorganisation: implemeting of new galleries made easier by outsourcing of the relevant settings and database queries into seperate config files; new feature: support for vBGallery and Photoplog (lite?) added; minor bugfixes
• 3.0.1 Important bugfix if you are using vB albums: wrong database query in config file. To fix this, it's enough to reupload photo_popup_config_albums.
• 2.2 New feature: 2 plugins to show correct location and activity in "who's online". Bugfix: Bit of unphrased German removed from template (in pagenav dropdown). For upgrade from 2.1 just import product file, no uploads necessary.
• 2.1 New feature: Code mode. Lets you see the corresponding bb- or html-code instead of sending the image to the editor. If your browser allows that, the code is also copied to clipboard. Bugfix: Fixed a problem where pagination misbehaved when working with vB albums
• 2.0 New feature: Support for quickreply and quickedit!
• 1.4 New feature: Three new insert-options: thumbnail, medium and original image not linked themselves, but with a link to the gallery/album in the line below. This should be especially interesting for the users of the image resizer mod.
• 1.3 feature improvement/bugfix: default popup size is now determined before opening, not after (window.resize method causing issues in Firefox). Auto-close of the popup now using the YUI Event Listener; the needed library is already part of vB's standard distribution. New feature: title bar with "close this window"-link.
• 1.2 new feature: popup closes after editing is completed; smaller changes in Layout
• 1.1 new feature:set popup window size, to go with your table settings; minor bugfixes
  
• 1.0 Initial release

Development and bugfix releases for config files
If the need arises, there will be development or bugfix releases of config files between official releases of this mod. The zip file attached to this post will always be up to date. At the moment, there are no development/bugfix-releases.

Working great. Nominated.

The popup doesn't close for me on picture insert, but it closes on post so I'm content.

Now if you could just make "link to original" open in lightbox instead of a new window, this would be golden.

Well then have a look at the 2 (!) img tags then.

The addons seems to conflict with the Quick Editor Improver by Sunrise2006. Having said that, I've uninstalled that mod for now in favor of this one. Much more useful functionality.

[Rene Kriest]

Suggestion: Could you put in an option to paste the code to the clipboard without pasting it to the board?

Your addon is so handy and that would make it even more valueable to designers.

Does this work with PHPKD's advanced quick reply & quick edit mods?

I determined that to make it work to Advanced Quick Reply, just make the template edits to the Advanced Quick Reply templates of the same name. The only issue I see is that on the quick reply, both the button and the fieldset box are displayed.

(although it does in fact filter album images selected by album name properly)

I will try to do a reinstall when I get home later, and let you know, but I did do an xml overwrite last night with the same resuts.

(still using v1.3 atm, fyi)

Thanks again

I have this same issue. It shows the pagination, yet it still ends up displaying more rows than are in the ACP settings. I am using FireFox (running on Linux) if that makes a difference...

[RvG2]

cellarius, thank you for working hard on this. recommended!!!

[smirkley]

I use IE6 and IE7 in different networks.

If you have problems with table building, please upload the attached file for extended debugging and provide the information for Photo Popup Settings and Table building.

If you're using an old version, please upgrade. This is the 2.0 file version, so use this download only if you are sure that your product is up to date.

Perhaps a deinstall/reinstall might help. I'll update the product zip in a minute.

Let's see.

First: Where exactly does that code come from? Is this from your html source code in the browser? This is different from what you posted in your earlier post: There you posted from the debug informations of my mod. I could not find an issue there.

What I see here is html source code. While my mod indeed inserts html code into the wysiwyg-editor, you normally do not get to see it - the editor immediately transforms it to the image. If you change to standard mode, you'll see bbcode.

Now: To get things straight, you are trying to insert two images. The first one, so I gather from the code, is a thumb linked to original image. The second one is a original image. Whether this was linked originally, I don't know.

What I do see is that some other mod has tampered with the links

(onload="NcodeImageResizer.createOn(this);)

is definitely nothing my mod does to a link. As stated before: My mod does nothing but to insert straightforward bbcode. I just checked once again, the code inserted is proper. All opening and closing tags are where they are supposed to be. As long as they are not missing in the code you see in the debug section, they are there upon insertion. Whatever this other mod does, I do not know. I gather that the other problem you described with the link not closed after insertion on your other post is the same issue.

To make sure: Please deactivate the other mod and try then.
