Major Additions - PhotoPlog: The Pro Gallery

PhotoPlog: The Pro Gallery - Version 2.1.6 for vBulletin 4.2.1

This is a full-fledged and completely integrated image gallery add-on for vBulletin. No template edits are necessary. This is the same version that was licensed for sale back in the vBulletin 3 days, but it has been upgraded to vBulletin 4.2.1 and is being offered without charge and is not feature-limited. You get the full pro version.

It comes with various thumb, image, and display settings, has the ability to determine and display EXIF information, is integrated with several packages including Highslide, and you can set a number of usergroup and category permissions, moderate comments and files, add custom fields, FTP import, mass move, and more.


Integrated packages (all are the most recent packages available as of 09 June 2013):

• Highslide JS 4.1.13
• JHead 2.97
• CKEditor 4.1.1
• jQuery 1.10.1

PhotoPlog Pro 2.1.6 has been developed for the following version of vBulletin:

• vBulletin 4.2.1 (fresh install)

PhotoPlog Pro 2.1.6 has been tested on the following browsers:

• Firefox 21.0
• Internet Explorer 10.0.5

Check out the screenshots.


How to upgrade from PhotoPlog Pro v.2.1.5 to PhotoPlog Pro v.2.1.6?

You can follow the readme file, but this is a small change to fix a bug I inadvertently introduced
(sorry!!) when I moved the code around. All you need to do is one minute of work as follows:

• FTP these three files from the PhotoPlog ZIP:
  

  /forum/admincp/photoplog_plugins.php
  /photoplog/functions.php
  /photoplog/settings.php

• Reimport the following XML file via the vB ACP:
  

  product-photoplog.xml

  Do NOT uninstall !!!
  Do allow overwrite.

How to upgrade from any other version of PhotoPlog to PhotoPlog Pro v.2.1.6?

• Backup first and then follow the upgrade instructions in the readme file.

Additional questions...
Will there be a PhotoPlog version for vBulletin 5? Probably not. My understanding is that vBulletin 5 already includes a gallery.
So what happened to you anyway? Personal issues. My sincerest apologies to anyone negatively affected by my absence.
What about GARS, GAB, GAZ, GAL, and GeekMart? I'm not sure if I'll update these, and probably not anytime soon.

Can someone please help me decipher and fix this?

Thanks in advance

We are having the same problem on vBulletin 4.2.5, and no, there seems to be still no answer.

It's just an annoying warning, though, everything seems to work fine.

https://www.website.com/photoplog/selector.php?e=vB_Editor_001_editor

I could not find the code under custom BB codes. Where/how do I change this?

In the meantime I've added a rewrite. In case someone else wants to do this, here is the code. Add this to .htaccess :

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
# BEGIN Rewrite /gallery/ to /photoplog/
RewriteRule ^gallery/(.*)$ /photoplog/$1 [R=301,NC,L]
# END   Rewrote /gallery/ to /photoplog/
</IfModule>

Will this work with vbulletin 3.8.x

Looks like you have not uploaded the files correctly.
Also Have you gone through the entire thread and applied the "fixes" that have been posted?
This thing is ancient and might require someone to fix the code to work properly both in VB 4.2.5 and PHP versions.
