Geek Gallery Popup 4.0

From the makers of lint and fuzz come the oh-so-popular-cant-live-with-out Mack that transformed the lives of all whom beheld it.

Yes, this is: Geek Gallery Popup for vBa and PhotoPost*

Gpop will allow your users to easily insert pictures from their gallery into their posts and private messages.

New features include:
Browse by category
Insert aligned images

Installation difficulty: About as hard as a sneeze
File edits: 0
Plugins: 0
template edits: 1

Known issues:
If the editor isnt selected, and you click a pic... it inserts the freaking pic in the page instead of the editor. Odd stuff. Im sure ill figure that out shortly.

*PhotoPost support is built in however please note that I dont have PP any longer and so I cant really test for it. Therefore, if you are a PP user, let me know if it works

Please click install if you install it.

Any resolution to that pesky issue of the image being placed within the site and not in the editor?

Also, if any of the options are changed my images dissapear and I have to close the window to get them back...Odd stuff indeed!

Any help would be greatly appreciate with these two issues

We're running the photopost on a different database with a different username/password. The Geek Gallery Popup Settings allow choosing the database, but not the username/password... Is there somewhere in the script that I can set this? Thanks.

Can I just throw in a meek ditto?

This mod would be fantastic, but given the number of users on my board, these two issues make this mod not quite ready for primetime.

I have Photopost VBGallery and after trying everything listed on all these pages it simply won't work. I'm not sure what changes Photopost made to the gallery but they are effecting the hack.

ProjectCamaro, try this.......If you can see your image's in the gallery normally.

Server Path: /your/path/here/forums/gallery

Gallery URL: http://www.yoursite.com/forums/gallery

Data Folder: /files

click save.......

Now go to the geek-gallery-popup.php either in your file manager, or you can edit the file, reupload it and just copy over the existing file....
Anyways, open geek-gallery-popup.php and scroll down to

$folderstring = $gallery_files_path;
if ($photo_system == "vba")
{
$folders = preg_split( '//',$userid,-1, PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY);
foreach ($folders AS $uid)
{
//$folderstring .= '/' . $uid;
}

And where you see $folderstring .= '/' . $uid; Put // in front of $folderstring .= '/' . $uid; just like i have in the quote.........see what happens.

Hmmmm, I can't seem to get this to work. Right now it is popping up a blank white window.

I am running this on Windows 2003, so I was wondering if someone can help me get my paths correct.

c:\inetpub\wwwroot (CMPS home)
c:\inetpub\wwwroot\forum (forum home)
c:\inetpub\wwwroot\gallery (VBA Gallery home)
c:\inetpub\wwwroot\gallery\files (VBA Gallery photos)

Right now I am running this on a local test box, so my url is http://localhost

I think I have tried every combination but still can't seem to get the right settings.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Hello,

Hotwheels' modification corrected an issue I was having. My images are all being stored in the "/files" directory and not "/files/1/". This includes my members. I was getting a bunch of the horrid "red x's" where the images should have been. I am running the ORIGINAL vBadvanced Gallery by Brian if that makes a difference. Mine was not upgraded through PP.

By adding the comment that Hotwheels suggested, MY images appear now. I am currently waiting to make sure member submissions do as well.
