Menalto's G2 integration into VB3
NOTE: Development for G2.1 and vB 3.5 is on this page: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=111931 I was about to post this on Menalto's site until i realized that I'd be publicly posting VB3's code... A no-no!!! heh! So, I'll post the instructions here, and then refer people to this post on how to do it! (obviously they'll have to log on w/ their licensed account to see it) Ok, here's how to integrate menalto's G2 gallery into VB3. Menalto's gallery is sweet. Menalto's gallery is free. Menalto's gallery is here: http://gallery.menalto.com/index.php This works on my system of vBulletin 3.0.7 and Gallery 2 Holy Hand Grenade. Known issues: VB3 has a password structure that consists of the user's password plus the salt md5'ed together. It is not possible to strip out just the user's password. Thus, this script pushes the users's password plus salt from VB3 into G2. The outcome - the standalone G2 passwords will not match *just* the user's password! There is talks of looking into salt'ing in the future w/ G2 integration, but that's the dealio as of this integration technique... If you are using G2 as 'embedded only', then game on, no worries. If not, then your users will need to log on through the VB3 install to setup their session, then can visit the G2 standalone if they wish... Step 1 - create a new file named 'gallery2.php' as per this thread: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=62164 (thx Gary King!!!) in that thread, the first box (the gallery2.php file), the contents will be (this is the section that contains the G2 embeded code which is available on Menalto's site... i'll update this thread w/ direct links once it's in place! *only* the G2 code is on their site, no VB3 code in accordance w/ the VB license agreement! ): Code:
<?php // ####################### SET PHP ENVIRONMENT ########################### error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE); // #################### DEFINE IMPORTANT CONSTANTS ####################### define('NO_REGISTER_GLOBALS', 1); define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'gallery2'); // change this depending on your filename // ################### PRE-CACHE TEMPLATES AND DATA ###################### // get special phrase groups $phrasegroups = array( ); // get special data templates from the datastore $specialtemplates = array( ); // pre-cache templates used by all actions $globaltemplates = array( 'galley2', ); // pre-cache templates used by specific actions $actiontemplates = array( ); // ######################### REQUIRE BACK-END ############################ require_once('./global.php'); // ####################################################################### // ######################## START MAIN SCRIPT ############################ // ####################################################################### $navbits = array(); $navbits[$parent] = 'Gallery G2'; $navbits = construct_navbits($navbits); eval('$navbar = "' . fetch_template('navbar') .

$ret = GalleryEmbed::init(array('embedUri' => 'gallery2.php', 'embedPath' => '/VB', 'relativeG2Path' => '../gallery2', 'loginRedirect' => 'index.php', 'activeUserId' => $uid)); Code:
require_once('../gallery2/embed.php'); step 2 - creating the template as per the same thread, https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=62164 (2nd code box) create a template named 'gallery2' (no tics) and in it, place the following code: 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> oh, forgot to add! in scouring the net, i've seen a couple of posts where people have offered to pay for this solution. if you are one of them, and are serious, then here's Menalto's donation link! (nope, i'm not affiliated w/ them... if you wanna donate to me, then i'll redirect you to the donation link to the site that this is for: a non-profit saltwater aquariast club's site! ) edit 2006.01.11 Quote:

After a bit of effort, I gave up trying to truly integrate G2.
What I ended up doing was setting up a new photo album system for Members, and importing my Gallery1 albums into Gallery2 separately. After copying G2's Siriux Theme into a different name, I edited the template files so that it came roughly 95% of what my normal vbulletin theme looks like. Had to remove my top navbar, and the dynamic links. My Gallery Album has over 29,000 photos in it. What I've learned over the years is that user turnover will leave many photos in any online album without owners. Since Gallery never really had a true relationship with any CMS's user management functions (just read it's database), it isn't a significant hardship to just integrate G2 visually and manually setup new moderator/user profiles for those with significant contributions to manage. It may seem like a cop-out, but the end result still looks visually "stunning" and the current community can enjoy thousands of photos contributed over many years. I'm still a big believer in Gallery, maybe someday it will offer a true vB integration. |
