Menalto's G2 integration into VB3

NOTE: Development for G2.1 and vB 3.5 is on this page: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=111931 I was about to post this on Menalto's site until i realized that I'd be publicly posting VB3's code... A no-no!!! heh! So, I'll post the instructions here, and then refer people to this post on how to do it!  (obviously they'll have to log on w/ their licensed account to see it)Ok, here's how to integrate menalto's G2 gallery into VB3. Menalto's gallery is sweet. Menalto's gallery is free. Menalto's gallery is here: http://gallery.menalto.com/index.php  This works on my system of vBulletin 3.0.7 and Gallery 2 Holy Hand Grenade. Known issues: VB3 has a password structure that consists of the user's password plus the salt md5'ed together. It is not possible to strip out just the user's password. Thus, this script pushes the users's password plus salt from VB3 into G2. The outcome - the standalone G2 passwords will not match *just* the user's password! There is talks of looking into salt'ing in the future w/ G2 integration, but that's the dealio as of this integration technique... If you are using G2 as 'embedded only', then game on, no worries. If not, then your users will need to log on through the VB3 install to setup their session, then can visit the G2 standalone if they wish... Step 1 - create a new file named 'gallery2.php' as per this thread: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=62164 (thx Gary King!!!) in that thread, the first box (the gallery2.php file), the contents will be (this is the section that contains the G2 embeded code which is available on Menalto's site... i'll update this thread w/ direct links once it's in place! *only* the G2 code is on their site, no VB3 code in accordance w/ the VB license agreement! ):Code:

Code:

'embedPath' => '/VB',
'relativeG2Path' => '../gallery2',
'loginRedirect' => 'index.php',
'activeUserId' => $uid));
Code:
require_once('../gallery2/embed.php');
step 2 - creating the template as per the same thread, https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=62164 (2nd code box) create a template named 'gallery2' (no tics) and in it, place the following code: Code:
$stylevar[htmldoctype] <html dir="$stylevar[textdirection]" lang="$stylevar[languagecode]"> <head> $headinclude $data[headHtml] </head> <body> $header $navbar <table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center"> <tr><td class="tcat">Gallery</td></tr> <tr><td class="alt1">$data[bodyHtml]</td></tr> </table> $footer </body> </html> oh, forgot to add! in scouring the net, i've seen a couple of posts where people have offered to pay for this solution. if you are one of them, and are serious, then here's Menalto's donation link!  (nope, i'm not affiliated w/ them... if you wanna donate to me, then i'll redirect you to the donation link to the site that this is for: a non-profit saltwater aquariast club's site! )edit 2006.01.11 Quote:

Hi Whodah and zquestz,
I got the gallery setup with Whodah's file, but I am having trouble getting the mod_rewite to work properly..... From the docs I have read on menalto's site and here, I gather it's just in the Embeded Setup settings: Embedded Setup For URL Rewrite to work in an embedded environment you need to set up an extra htaccess file to hold the mod_rewrite rules. Htaccess path: (I put in /var/www/forums) Public path: http://forums.scubapost.net (I put in /gallery and tried /gallery2.php) My embeded album is in http://forums.scubapost.net/gallery/ When I put in /gallery/It shows the path to the non-embeded photos. When I put in /gallery2.php it gives me urls' without the /gallery/ directory... How did you guys get the embeded short urls to work? EDIT: I put in / instead of gallery2.php, also I have my Cookies settings to: Path: / Domain: .forums.scubapost.net (my forum is in a subdomain) It is now working with the urls but some icons are missing. The program paths are : embed: http://forums.scubapost.net/v/scripp...-0046.jpg.html stand alone: http://forums.scubapost.net/gallery/...-0046.jpg.html I assume is wrong. Any idea what I don't have configured right? Thanks, Sean

OK I actually modified my board to match all of your settings... My gallery is working! but I still have the link issue. Check out this photo and notice the broken links.
http://www.scubapost.net/forums/v/sc...-0184.JPG.html I check out the navbar and made the changes you said to make but they didn't have any effect. I am using 3.5, might these templates have changed? When I click on a picture the broken links are "reload page" and "go back"... Is there anyway to eliminate them or hard code them? As far as random blocks, I have made an html file and call it from the forum... Here is my html file: table width="100%" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr valign="top"> <td align="center"><?php readfile('http://gallery.scubapost.net/main.php?g2_linkTarget=_blank&g2_view=imageblock.E xternal&g2_show=none&g2_blocks=randomImage&g2_maxS ize=140'); ?></td> <td align="center"><?php readfile('http://gallery.scubapost.net/main.php?g2_linkTarget=_blank&g2_view=imageblock.E xternal&g2_show=none&g2_blocks=randomImage&g2_maxS ize=140'); ?></td> <td align="center"><?php readfile('http://gallery.scubapost.net/main.php?g2_linkTarget=_blank&g2_view=imageblock.E xternal&g2_show=none&g2_blocks=randomImage&g2_maxS ize=140'); ?></td> <td align="center"><?php readfile('http://gallery.scubapost.net/main.php?g2_linkTarget=_blank&g2_view=imageblock.E xternal&g2_show=none&g2_blocks=randomImage&g2_maxS ize=140'); ?></td> </tr> </table> here is the code I put in the forumhome: <!---------- PHOTO GALLERY START ----------> <table class="thead" align="center" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"> <tr class="alt2" align="center" colspan="100%" border="0"> <div><iframe id="main" name="main" align="middle" valign="middle" src="http://www.scubapost.net/forums/randomimage.php/" border="0" frameborder="0" resizeable="no" scrolling="no" height="190" width="100%"> </iframe></div></tr> <td class="tcat" colspan="100%" height="25" align="center" nowrap>Random Photographs from Our Member Photo Galleries</td> </table> <!---------- PHOTO GALLERY END ----------> I'm no coder, but I saw the question was asked.... I do appriciate all documents to get me so far... I just have to clear up those urls and I'm good to go! Thanks, Sean

hi,
i have been following the directions in this thread to attempt the bridge between gallery and vb. i am currently getting the following error message Notice: Undefined index: HTTP_REFERER in /home/freshdis/public_html/forum2/includes/class_core.php on line 1546 Unable to add cookies, header already sent. File: /home/freshdis/public_html/forum2/includes/class_core.php Line: 1546 I am using galler 2.0.1 and vb 3.5.1 I do realise that this bridge is for an earlier veersion of vb but i did notice that a few ppl on here said they have got this working in 3.5 any ideas?

Whodah, Thanks for all the information for embedding Gallery into Vbulletin! I tried the phrase and menu bar again and your instructions worked! I don't know what was up earlier, but my Gallery is working great now! Thanks again! Sean

Would it be possible to see your .htaccess file so I can get the mod_rewrite to work. Ive been pulling my hair out for hours trying to figure it out. Ive also setup the site with Multiaccess to aleviate andy login issues.
