NEW Latest Album Pictures - Forum Home

It shows the pictures added to the albums on the main page. It shows only the public mentioned files. If not shows the reasons are: vbulletin settings show albums must be enabled.

The user grup that owns the pictures must be enabled show picture setting. Or there is no picture to show.

Additionally you can slect the number of pictures that can be shown.

Hope it works for you as I like it very much.

Yes, it would be better than having an ALT="269" tooltip.

Anyone tweak this mod to do show that info?

edit template: newalbum_picture

replace all with:

<td align="center">	
		<a class="picture" href="album.php?albumid={vb:raw lpicture.albumid}&amp;attachmentid={vb:raw lpicture.attachmentid}"><img  src="attachment.php?attachmentid={vb:raw lpicture.attachmentid}&amp;thumb=1&amp;d=1258906442" alt="Image uploaded by: {vb:raw lpicture.musername}" border="0" /></a>
<br />
<a href="member.php?u={vb:raw lpicture.userid}">{vb:raw lpicture.musername}</a> 
<br />
{vb:raw lpicture.title}
</td>

will give you a little more "tool tip" info.

We have asked this like 15 times, yet everyone ignores it?

I don't understand.

i manage to move it on different location (any location you prefer). Here's how:

1. Goto to plugin manager then search for "New Album Picture Forum Home" there are two result select the one under "forumhome_start" hook.

2. Scroll down thru the php code and find this line

PHP Code:

$template_hook['forumhome_wgo_pos1'] .= $templater->render(); 


then replace it with this

PHP Code:

//$template_hook['forumhome_wgo_pos1'] .= $templater->render();
$ad_location['ad_navbar_below'] .= $templater->render(); 


then save it.

The above code means that instead of showing the album under whats going on it will now be shown under the position of the advertisement position below the navigation bar.

Note #1: If you have ads in that location then it will be replaced by this mod.
Note #2: The album will show without a design it means no title bar, no border, etc. So you may want to edit your template.

To edit goto to Style Manager then edit your template. Goto Navigation / Breadcrumbs template > navbar. Search for

{vb:raw ad_location.ad_navbar_below}

then replace with this format:

START HTML CODE
{vb:raw ad_location.ad_navbar_below}
END HTML CODE

EXAMPLE:

<div class="mystyle">
{vb:raw ad_location.ad_navbar_below}
</div>

I'm not a vb coder. I just wanted to help so please be gentle. You are free to try but i will not be responsible whatever happen to your site.

Here's the sample www.pinoyrepublic.org i placed mine under the shoutbox.

Awesome thanks for that. I have one little problem on mine. I have used HTML markup for my usernames so the alt tag is getting all messed up with the span tag breaking it.

Does anyone have a way of printing the username in the alt tag without printing the rest of the markup?

Thanks

Does this mod work in 4.0.1 ?

[movslow]

PinoyRepublic I really appreciate the reply, however I'm not sure about that.

I am REALLY trying to limit the amount of code I edit, b/c I spent the better part of yesterday recoding all the mods after the update.

This is just one more thing I'd have to sift through and remember.

Personally it should be a little more automated, or be coded w/in the mod.

Having the opportunity to move this mod to a different area such as footer/header is pretty much a standard by what I've seen that I'm surprised isn't offered here.

Great hack but I think it needs more flexibility. I will keep my eye on this one for future upgrades. I hope that this can eventually placed below the navbar in it's own div and have the username and album linked underneath. I see that there are ways to do it, and I did it, but I would like for it to be more automated as movslow stated. Again... I'll keep my eye on this one!
