This tutorial will outline the steps needed to integrate your vBulletin 3.5.X and Menalto Gallery 2.1 installations. The original thread located here has become a little too scattered, and since it's original focus was on the Gallery 2.0 and vBulletin 3.0 series, I think it'd be beneficial to start this new thread so that the information is more easily found for the 3.5.X and 2.1 series.

Before we begin, you should be aware that this tutorial assumes that you'll be placing your gallery in the root directory for your forums. My directory structure looks a little like this:

public_html/Vbulletin Files
and
public_html/gallery2/Gallery Files

As long as your gallery folder is located within your root vBulletin directory, this should work just fine.

Step 1:
Install Menalto Gallery 2.1. Remember to upload the "gallery2" folder INSIDE your root vBulletin directory!

Step 2:
Create a new file containing the following, and save it as gallery2.php:
PHP Code:
<?php

// ####################### SET PHP ENVIRONMENT ###########################
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);

// #################### DEFINE IMPORTANT CONSTANTS #######################

// ################### PRE-CACHE TEMPLATES AND DATA ######################
// get special phrase groups
$phrasegroups = array(

// get special data templates from the datastore

// pre-cache templates used by all actions
$globaltemplates = array(
'gallery2',
);

// pre-cache templates used by specific actions
$actiontemplates = array(

// ######################### REQUIRE BACK-END ############################

require_once('./global.php');

// #######################################################################
// ######################## START MAIN SCRIPT ############################
// #######################################################################

$navbits = array();
$navbits[$parent] = 'Gallery';
error_reporting(E_ALL );

$navbits = construct_navbits($navbits);
eval('$navbar = "' . fetch_template('navbar') . '";');

// #######################################################################
// ###################### Begin G2 INTEGRATION CODE ######################
// #######################################################################

$data = runGallery();
$data['title'] = (isset($data['title']) && !empty($data['title'])) ? $data['title'] : 'Gallery';

function runGallery() {
global $vbulletin, $userinfo;
require_once('/home/paranorm/public_html/gallery2/embed.php');

$data = array();

// If it's an anonymous user, set the g2 activeUser to null
$uid = $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] = 0 ? '' : $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'];

// initiate G2

'loginRedirect' => 'index.php',
'activeUserId' => $uid));
if ($ret)
{
if ($ret->getErrorCode() & ERROR_MISSING_OBJECT)
{
// Check if there's no G2 user mapped to the activeUserId

}
// die if it was a binary data (image) request
if ($g2moddata['isDone']) {
exit; /* uploads module does this too */
}

// put the body html from G2 into the xaraya template
$data['bodyHtml'] = isset($g2moddata['bodyHtml']) ? $g2moddata['bodyHtml'] : '';

// get the page title, javascript and css links from the <head> html from G2
$title = ''; $javascript = array(); $css = array();

if (isset($g2moddata['headHtml'])) {
list($data['title'], $css, $javascript) = GalleryEmbed::parseHead($g2moddata['headHtml']);
$data['headHtml'] = $g2moddata['headHtml'];
}

/* Add G2 javascript */
if (!empty($javascript)) {
foreach ($javascript as $script) {
$data['javascript'] .= "\n".$script;
}
}

/* Add G2 css */
if (!empty($css)) {
foreach ($css as $style) {
$data['css'] .= "\n".$style;
}
}

// sidebar block
if (isset($g2moddata['sidebarHtml']) && !empty($g2moddata['sidebarHtml'])) {
$data['sidebarHtml'] = $g2moddata['sidebarHtml'];
}

return $data;
}
// #######################################################################
// ####################### End G2 integration code #######################
// #######################################################################

eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('gallery2') . '");');

?>
(or download the attached gallery2.php)

Step 3:
Find and edit the following code to suit your site setup:
PHP Code:
 require_once('/home/paranorm/public_html/gallery2/embed.php'); 
and
PHP Code:
 $ret = GalleryEmbed::init(array('embedUri' => '/gallery2.php',
'g2Uri' => 'http://www.yoursite.com/gallery2/',
'loginRedirect' => 'index.php', 
Save and upload the file to your root vBulletin directory.

Step 4:
Create a new template in your style manager called gallery2 containing the following:
HTML 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>
And that's basically it! Your gallery should now be accessable via www.yoursite.com/gallery2.php or www.yoursite.com/forums/gallery2.php (depending on how you have it set up).

You can achieve further integration by using johnmont's plugins which will:
  1. Delete users from the Gallery when you delete them from the vBulletin control panel.
  2. Update user information in the gallery when they change their information in the User CP.
John has given me permission to post them The attached gallery-plugins.xml file will create two new plugins called Delete Gallery User and Update Gallery User. You'll need to edit both of these plugins after installation and change
PHP Code:
require_once('/home/paranorm/public_html/gallery2/embed.php''); 
(it's the very first line in both of them) to match your site setup.

Hopefully this tutorial sparks a little more interest in this area and we can get some additional people contributing solutions to achieve tighter integration :banana:

As the integration progresses, I'll update this thread to keep everything together and accessable.

Enjoy!

got a link for me? it woudl most likley require you to modify one of the VBB templates.

there is a way to integrate gallery related pictures into an external webpage. so i assume its doiable, but i dont know about just x users images(without looking at it again)

if you do a search on gallery2.org, you might be able to find somebody who did the code for PHPBB(or something). if so post up a link, and i will see if i can decyfer what they are doing into VBB... odds are i cant, but somebody might be able to

JohnMount and 1 other person(i keep forgetting who it is) were working on the code. they sent me a copy that was not posted, but i have yet to have the time to install it and test it on my board. i sadly only have my LIVE site, and i dont reallllly want to risk blowing it up

I also have this problem. I get the last error not only if i'm not logged in but even if logged in with a normal user.

I just made a fresh installation of gallery and placed it in my root directory

Question: will all my vb users automatically get a user account in gallery?

try creating a new user, then log into gallery VIA the integration script... i think it will work fine... the issue(most likley) is that you had a user, then removed it. gallyer still have the VBB userid saved in the DB.. you would need to go into the DB and remove the VBB id from ?Ext IDs?.

Don't manually create a user in g2 that has the same name as a vb user or you get the collision error.

I'm also right now working on a user import system for my board. I wasn't planning on releasing it, but if anyone wants it, I'll make it available - when I finish it.. The only reason you would need to import all the users is to have matching ids for an existing photo album....otherwise, the script on the original post will create them on the fly.


also...unless I missed it.. it is super important that you should deactivate G2's user registration module since all new users should register with VB (or don't install it).

ps- thanks brent....this is a great script and good info!!!

Will this also solve the collision error?

I have a pre-existing G2 installation and have integrated it with vbulletin - however when I attempt to view it whilst logged in to vbulletin, I get the collision error.

No. It won't solve your collision errors.

The collision error is a result of creating a new user outside the integration. As I said 2 posts up, you can't do that. What happens is when you visit the integrated G2 site, it first looks in a link table for your VB userid to find the appropriate G2 userid. When it can't find one (since you never registered inside the integrated G2) it then attempts to create a new user - with the same username - and then you will get the collision error.

There are a bunch of ways you can fix the error. If you are the only submitting user, just manually add the two userids in the useridmap table (I forget the exact name of the table offhand) and you will be set. If you have a lot of users, you could delete all the users in G2 (but lose who the owner is of each picture).

Frankly, the best option if you have more than a few users, is to edit the gallery.php script so that after it checks for id in the link table it looks for matching usernames. If it finds one, then insert the link record rather than going straight to creating a new user. If someone does bother to make this addition, it should be part of the default gallery.php people use.

I have the script completed.

It is a one time use script that will copy the users from your existing VB database into a clean G2 database.

There are going to be very few folks who want this (or could use it). The only purpose (I know of) is if you have an existing photo album and you import the photoalbum into G2, then you will need to have all the IDs matched before it will work correctly.

If anyone wants it, I'll release it.
