Dont forget to click

Update 03/24/2005
If you get error loging out of album:
in page_header.php, line 110

replace

PHP Code:

"url_logout" => (!empty($url_logout)) ? $site_sess->url($url_logout) : $site_sess->url(ROOT_PATH."logout.php"), 


by

PHP Code:

"url_logout" =>(!empty($url_logout))?$site_sess->url($url_logout):$site_sess->url($url_app."login.php?do=logout&u=$user_info[user_id]"), 


Update 10/30/2004
Since meny people have problem with vB usergroup, I've add Usergroups arrays,
Now you can set multiple custom user groups to be USER, USER_WAITING, or ADMIN
By default:

$waitinggroups = array(3, 4); // vB Group should be waiting for moderate. seperate each group by comma
$usergroups = array(2, 7); // Groups that are USERS in album. seperate each group by comma
$admingroups = array(6); // vB groups that are ADMINS in album. seperate each group by comma

Update 10/20/2004
Sincemeny people ignore to config the "VB_TABLE_PREFIX" inconfiguration,I've pull all the prefix into one place, and make STRONGrequest tocheck this one.
If your album works fine, you dont have to update your files.
If you do want to apply the changes, here's where you can check:

constants.php
define('VB_TABLE_PREFIX',''); // your vb tableprefix. vB default is blank
define('SESSIONS_TABLE', VB_TABLE_PREFIX.'session');
define('USERS_TABLE', VB_TABLE_PREFIX.'user');

sessions.php
define('VB_TEMPLATE_TABLE', VB_TABLE_PREFIX.'template');

Update 06/25/2004
Clean up some codes, add some more instructions. Adding constants for Cookie prefix, cookie timeout, album folder ...
If your album works fine, you dont have to update your files.
If you do want to ... work again, just follow all the steps


Update 06/22/04
IF you have "Remember username/password?" problem with album (Album session dont remember your logged in if you go directly to album - installed before 06/22/04)

Edit the attached sessions.php, and replace the VBLICENCE_NUMBER, and upload to your album/include/sessions.php

OR

Manually edit:

In 4images sessions.php

Look for

PHP Code:

 if ($this->read_cookie_data("bbpassword")==$this->user_info['user_password']&&$this->user_info['user_level'] > USER_AWAITING) { 


replace by

PHP Code:

 if ($this->read_cookie_data("bbpassword")==md5($this->user_info['user_password']. 'XXXXXX')&&$this->user_info['user_level'] != USER_AWAITING) { 


CHANGE XXXXXX with your Licence Number, located on top of any of your vB file

NOTE: for those runing into table doesnt exist problem, check your VB_TABLE_PREFIX variable

Table '4images.template' doesn't exist
DB Error: Bad SQL Query: SELECT sessionhash FROM session
Table '4images.session' doesn't exist

OK, I have installed this hach and have the same table issue!!!

PHP Code:

DB Error: Bad SQL Query: SELECT template FROM template WHERE title='options'
Table 'gallerydb.template' doesn't exist

DB Error: Bad SQL Query: SELECT sessionhash, lastactivity, host, userid FROM session WHERE sessionhash = '9f580daff7691a3a3d9fc7edee1a4580' AND host = '82.69.76.24'
Table 'gallerydb.session' doesn't exist 


I DO UNDERSTAND that I have to have the 4images tables in the VB database BUT how the hell do I get them into there?

Also do I have to change the config.php in 4images route to also have my forums database name and password (if so I did not see that in the install readme).

Xrayhead

[edit]

OK when you say a FRESH install........ Do you mean that when you run the install script for 4images you have to fill in the database as your on VB details???????

[XrayHead]

Right I have fixed this now.

I did a fresh install of 4images and when I ran the install I put my VBulletin database details into the 4images database settings. Ran the install and hey presto I now have the correct tables in my VB database!!!

It dose not say this anywhere in the install instructions and it would be really useful if you could add what I have just stated.

Xrayhead

When I say "fresh install", I mean you make a NEW installation for your album.

It does state clearly in the instruction note that

2. 4images tables and vbulletin tables have to be in the same database.

maybe you skip the "Notes before you install" section.

[XrayHead]

No I did not skip the notes, (I read them about 20 times and could not understand how to get the tables into my database) I was also searching for a script in this thread that would install the new tables into my database for me!!!

I think the hack is very good indeed and a lot of work must have gone into it.
I have had my forum running for 3 years now, why would I not read or skip something that could mess it all up?

2. 4images tables and vbulletin tables have to be in the same database.

I would suggest that you include in the install file that you have to enter YOUR OWN forum database details when you run the install.php for 4images!!
As you know when you install Vbulletin fresh it destroys ALL tables within the database, I was worried that the 4images would damage my database (although I had backed it up prior).

I hope this makes more sense of what I am trying to say and I hope it helps others with the same problem.

PS, Thanks again for a really good hack (have it installed and working a treat on my site) finally. :squareeyed:

[Mattius]

Did the integration today and i got problems accessing the admin area.

I never did have problems previous to the integration...

When you check this pic below, its obvious i have a path problem somewhere but ive double checked it all and cant figure out where it is...Exactly what bit of code is being utilized here.

Once i get this once sorted, then ill move onto login...Quite frankly ive had exactly the same problem with Coppermine and spent 2 days on it...gave up on that in the end...but it worked flawlessly before integration. I feel like just forcing my users to double login if they want to use it...personally i wouldnt bother me..

Anywayz if somebody could help id really appreciate it...

Ok what directory did you install the 4images to?

I have mine in the following "/home/lsmith/public_html/vboard/gallery/"
And access it via http://www.my_url.com/vboard/gallery/
And Admin would be via http://www.my_url.com/vboard/gallery/admin/

I have just installed this and it works a treat, let me know if you need any help.

[XrayHead]

Ok I had a look at your site and you are useing the wrong url to login.

Have a look at the attached.

Interesting. How can you call a login.php when it never exists in admin folder? or you created one? It should be index.php

album/admin/index.php

I feel like just forcing my users to double login if they want to use it...personally i wouldnt bother me..

with this hack, if everything works properly, your users dont have to double login.

[rockyou]

I installed for my 4images, but I can't login. Can you help me ?

yes but how do you want me to help you?

[Mattius]

Thx for the response guys...

I have my forums setup in my root directory. So www.gamerscurse.com for me, is everybody elses www.gamerscurse.com/forums/

so the full path is /home/httpd/vhosts/gamerscurse.com/httpdocs

4images is set up in www.gamerscurse.com/gallery/

so path wise its /home/httpd/vhosts/gamerscurse.com/httpdocs/gallery

Ive rechecked the installation and cant see where i stuffed up, all i did was change the word "album" for "gallery" in a couple instances.

I have this in constants.php, other than that its all standard.

// If 4images has problems to find out the right URL, define it here.
define('SCRIPT_URL', 'http://www.gamerscurse.com/gallery'); //no trailing slash
define('VB_TABLE_PREFIX',''); // your vb tableprefix. vB default is blank

I have the main config for sessions.php as follows

define('USER_INTEGRATION', 'VBULLETIN');
define('VBLICENCE_NUMBER', 'XXXXXXXX'); // The correct number is here btw. This is just to hide my licence number..

define('SESSION_NAME', 's'); // Default of vBulletin is "s".
define('COOKIE_PREFIX', 'bb'); //Default of vBulletin is "bb".
define('COOKIE_TIMEOUT','1800'); //Set the same with your vB timeout, in second
define('ALBUM_FOLDER','/gallery/'); //Your Album Folder WITH trailing slash

// Define here the name of the template database table.
define('VB_TEMPLATE_TABLE', VB_TABLE_PREFIX.'template');

// Set her the corresponding database fields of the user table.
// If there is no corresponding field in the new user table,
// leave the value blank. Normally no need to change.
$user_table_fields = array(
"user_id" => "userid",
"user_level" => "usergroupid",
"user_name" => "username",
"user_password" => "password",
"user_email" => "email",
"user_showemail" => "",
"user_allowemails" => "",
"user_invisible" => "",
"user_joindate" => "joindate",
"user_activationkey" => "",
"user_lastaction" => "lastactivity",
"user_location" => "",
"user_lastvisit" => "lastvisit",
"user_comments" => "",
"user_homepage" => "homepage",
"user_icq" => "icq"
);

// Set here the URL to your vBulletin forum. WITH trailing slash!
$url_app = "http://www.gamerscurse.com/";

// Set here different URL's to your vBulletin forum.
// Normally no need to change.
$url_register = $url_app."register.php?do=signup";
$url_lost_password = $url_app."login.php?do=lostpw";
$url_control_panel = $url_app."usercp.php";
$url_mailform = $url_app."sendmessage.php?do=mailmember&u={user_id }";
$url_show_profile = $url_app."member.php?u={user_id}";
$url_login = $url_app."login.php";
$url_logout = $url_app."login.php?do=logout&u={myuserid}";
$clientscript_md5 = $url_app."clientscript/vbulletin_md5.js";

Now i notice in the installation it says to replace

if ($user_info['user_level'] != ADMIN) {
show_admin_header();
?>
<br /><br /><br />
<table cellpadding="1" cellspacing="0" border="0" align="center" width="500"><tr><td class="tableborder">
<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%">
<tr class="tablerow"><td align="center" nowrap><p><?php echo $lang['no_admin']; ?></p>
<form action="<?php echo ROOT_PATH; ?>admin/index.php" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="login">
<input type="hidden" name="redirect" value="<?php echo $site_sess->url(ROOT_PATH."admin/".$self_url); ?>">
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="1" border="0">
<tr>
<td><input type="text" name="loginusername" size="<?php echo $textinput_size2; ?>"></td>
<td><input type="password" name="loginpassword" size="<?php echo $textinput_size2; ?>"></td>
<td><input type="submit" value=" <?php echo $lang['admin_login']; ?> "></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><font size="1" class="smalltext"><?php echo $lang['field_username']; ?></font></td>
<td colspan="2"><font size="1" class="smalltext"><?php echo $lang['field_password']; ?></font></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
</td></tr></table>
</td></tr></table>
<p align="center">4images Administration Control Panel</p>
<?php
show_admin_footer();
exit;
}

with

if ($user_info['user_level'] != ADMIN) {
show_admin_header();
?>
<br /><br /><br />
<table cellpadding="1" cellspacing="0" border="0" align="center" width="500"><tr><td class="tableborder">
<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%">
<tr class="tablerow">
<td align="center" nowrap>
<p><?php echo $lang['no_admin']; ?></p>
<form action="/forum/login.php" method="post" onsubmit="md5hash(vb_login_password,vb_login_md5pa ssword)">
<script type="text/javascript" src="/forum/clientscript/vbulletin_md5.js"></script>
<input type="hidden" name="vb_login_md5password" />
<input type="hidden" name="s" value="$session[sessionhash]" />
<input type="hidden" name="do" value="login" />
<input type="hidden" name="forceredirect" value="1" />
<input type="hidden" name="redirect" value="<?php echo $site_sess->url(ROOT_PATH."admin/".$self_url); ?>">
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="1" border="0">
<tr>
<td>
<input type="text" name="vb_login_username" size="<?php echo $textinput_size2; ?>">
</td>
<td>
<input type="password" name="vb_login_password" size="<?php echo $textinput_size2; ?>">
</td>
<td>
<input type="submit" value=" <?php echo $lang['admin_login']; ?> ">
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<font size="1" class="smalltext"><?php echo $lang['field_username']; ?></font>
</td>
<td colspan="2">
<font size="1" class="smalltext"><?php echo $lang['field_password']; ?></font>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td></tr></table>
<p align="center">4images Administration Control Panel</p>
<?php
show_admin_footer();
exit;
}

Now those bold areas have the "/forum/" removed because its in my root directory...so its just "login.php" (should i have a slash at the front?) and "/clientscript/vbulletin_md5.js".

Also based on what you guys said isnt

<form action="<?php echo ROOT_PATH; ?>admin/index.php" method="post">
...the old version

correct and not
<form action="/forum/login.php" method="post" onsubmit="md5hash(vb_login_password,vb_login_md5pa ssword)"> which is what the instructions say to put in...

im calling login.php there and not the old index.php?

[Mattius]

ok i put the "/" infront of login.php and now i dont get the error i got before but it keeps just bouncing me back to the admin login screen after i entered it.

[permabanned.net]

So far, it looks awesome and it seems to be working correctly. Thanks for an awesome hack

How can I add a Navbar link to the gallery?

How about a link in Quick Links?

At least knowing the relevant Admin CP path and code to look for would be a big help.

THanks!

[permabanned.net]

Found this relevant bit for navbar still working on it...

The login.php is vBulletin's login file:

Change ALL /forum/ by / or you can use your full path:

<form action="http://www.gamerscurse.com/login.php" method="post" onsubmit="md5hash(vb_login_password,vb_login_md5pa ssword,vb_login_md5password_utf)">
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.gamerscurse.com/clientscript/vbulletin_md5.js"></script>
after making changes, clear all cookie, logout and login again.

Test: you may try to login in your forum home first, change to your album, and then browse to your AdminCP. You shouldnt have to login at these points.
