Major Additions - VB image Hosting

VB Image Hosting Version 1.0.1

This is the port for my hack to vb 3.6.x
check it for vb 3.5.x here

A New installer replaced the old one so you should not face any problems with database

NOTE :
People who were using vbimghost in vb 3.5.x and moved to vb 3.6.0 MAKE sure that you have vbimghost 1.4.1 Since this port will only support upgrading from that ver only
People who do a fresh install use this ver.

Requirements:

1. requires GD 2.0.1 or later (2.0.28 or later is recommended).
2. PHP ver 4.3.x or later (newer ver is better).

NOTE:
before you post any error here :
Set that path to your forums correctly in the vbimghost options.
if you getting the error ""supplied argument is not a valid"
that's because you didn't set the path correctly

And for all the people asking when is the next release it will be in 2007 not this month .. due to some problems in real life ..

I notice that to uninstall this, one of the points says:

"you'll have to manualy delete the table vbimghost from the database."

I don't have access to SQL to do this, so the question is, if I did all of the rest of the uninstall instrucitons and just left this table, will it cause me problems?

Thanks for any feedback....

Either way Ranma2k can make the new mod thread for this when he gets around to it. I believe I fixed all the issues that have been mentioned in regards to 3.7, but I am running this on 3.7.4PL1 so that is the only 3.7 version it was tested on. I will watch the thread if there are further issues. Thanks

:up::up::up: Thank you very much TomasDR.

Just reinstalled this (removed the old version first), but now my last5 don't show up in my user profiles. Anyone have any ideas?

I've been looking at it for a while and I'm stumped.

[Warlord]

I guess I should give you a bit more to go on...

I had this installed before (not sure what version). I hacked it to make it work for webcomics. I ended up not liking it for webcomics so I tried to overwrite the hacked version with this. That worked fine and dandy until some old images that weren't turned into thumbs for some reason was stretching user profiles in the last 5.

I removed the hack entirely from my site (including all the folders and dropping the vbimagehost table from the db - I kept the template edits and phrase changes I made). Then I reinstalled this latest version, uploaded three images under my account, but the latest uploaded images aren't showing up in my user profile. Instead only the "No image hosted" appears. It's as if the IF statement isn't coming true, but I don't know why it all of a sudden the IF statement won't come true. I'd appreciate any help or ideas anyone might have.

I feel stupid... my images were set to private.

I am getting the following error messages on each file upload above the redirecting message...

[Warlord]

1. Did you upload the files in the zip to those locations?
2. Did you CHMOD those folders/files to 777?
3. If all else fails, remove the hack and reinstall it.

Will this work on Vbulletin 3.8?

8 has an albums feature built in.

You should really try to get this working with 3.8.0 it would really be a great mod
