Instant Image Gallery - 5 minute install

A simple user image attachment gallery that requires a single script upload, 2 template creations, and 1 phrase creation.

Live demo:

http://www.zeewaterforum.org/forums/...s=1&userid=359

Step 1: Upload gallery.php to your forum home directory.

Step 2: Create a new global phrase named "gallery" with the text "Click to view {1}'s image gallery" or something similar.

Step 4: Create a template called "gallery" and past the following code into it:

<form action="gallery.php" method="post">

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<thead>
<tr>
	<td class="tcat" colspan="4">
		<if condition="$show['attachquota']">
			<a style="float:$stylevar[right]" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('attachinfo')"><img id="collapseimg_attachinfo" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_tcat$vbcollapse[collapseimg_attachinfo].gif" alt="$vbphrase[attachment_statistics]" border="0" /></a>
		</if>
		<phrase 1="$username">$vbphrase[attachments_posted_by_x]</phrase>
	</td>
</tr>
</thead>
<if condition="$show['attachquota']">
<tbody id="collapseobj_attachinfo" style="$vbcollapse[collapseobj_attachinfo]">
	<tr>
		<td class="panelsurround" align="center" colspan="4">
		<div class="panel">
			<div style="width:$stylevar[formwidth_usercp]" align="$stylevar[left]">
				<fieldset class="fieldset">
					<legend>$vbphrase[attachment_statistics]</legend>
					<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="$stylevar[formspacer]" border="0" width="100%">
					<tr>
						<td><phrase 1="$attachsum" 2="$totalattachments">$vbphrase[currently_using_x_to_store_y_attachments]</phrase></td>
					</tr>
					<if condition="$show['attachlimit']">
					<tr>
						<td>
							<table style="border:2px groove" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="1" border="0" width="100%">
							<tr>
								<if condition="$show['currentattachsize']"><td width="$attachsize" style="background-color:red; font-size:10px" title="<phrase 1="$attachsum">$vbphrase[current_attachment_total_x]</phrase>">&nbsp;</td></if>
								<if condition="$show['totalattachsize']"><td width="$totalsize" style="background-color:green; font-size:10px" title="<phrase 1="$attachlimit">$vbphrase[maximum_attachment_storage_x]</phrase>">&nbsp;</td></if>
							</tr>
							</table>
						</td>
					</tr>
					</if>
					</table>
				</fieldset>
			</div>
		</div>
		</td>
	</tr>
</tbody>
</if>
<tbody>
<tr align="center">
	<td class="thead">$vbphrase[attachment]</td>
	<td class="thead">$vbphrase[title]</td>
	<if condition="$show['deleteoption']">
		<td class="thead">$vbphrase[date]</td>
		<td class="thead" style="padding:0px"><input name="allbox" type="checkbox" value="Check All" title="$vbphrase[check_uncheck_all]" onclick="checkall(this.form);"  /></td>
	<else />
		<td class="thead" colspan="2">$vbphrase[date]</td>
	</if>

</tr>
<if condition="$show['thumbnails']"><col align="center"></col></if>

$template[gallerybits]

<tr>
	<td class="tfoot" colspan="4" align="$stylevar[right]">
		<span class="smallfont" style="float:$stylevar[left]">
			<if condition="$show['thumbnails']">
				<a href="gallery.php?pp=$perpage&amp;page=$pagenumber&amp;userid=$userid"><strong>$vbphrase[hide_thumbnails]</strong></a>
			<else />
				<a href="gallery.php?pp=$perpage&amp;page=$pagenumber&amp;showthumbs=1&amp;userid=$userid"><strong>$vbphrase[show_thumbnails]</strong></a>
			</if>
		</span>
		<if condition="$show['deleteoption']">
			<input type="hidden" name="perpage" value="$perpage" />
			<input type="hidden" name="pagenumber" value="$pagenumber" />
			<input type="hidden" name="showthumbs" value="$showthumbs" />
			<input type="hidden" name="do" value="deleteattachments" />
			<input type="hidden" name="userid" value="$userid" />
			<input type="submit" class="button" value="$vbphrase[delete_selected]" />
		</if>
	</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>

</form>

<if condition="$pagenav">
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" style="margin-top:3px">
<tr valign="top">
	<td align="$stylevar[right]">$pagenav</td>
</tr>
</table>
</if>

Step 4: Create a new template called "gallerybits" and paste the following code in it:

<tr>
	<td class="alt2">
		<div>
			<if condition="$showthumbs">
				<a href="attachment.php?$session[sessionurl]attachmentid=$post[attachmentid]" target="attachment"><img src="attachment.php?$session[sessionurl]attachmentid=$post[attachmentid]&amp;stc=1&amp;thumb=1" border="0" /></a>
			<else />
				<img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_attach]/$post[attachmentextension].gif" alt="$post[attachmentextension]" /> <a href="attachment.php?$session[sessionurl]attachmentid=$post[attachmentid]" target="attachment">$post[filename]</a>
			</if>
		</div>
		<div class="smallfont">$post[size], <phrase 1="$post[counter]">$vbphrase[x_downloads]</phrase></div>
	</td>
	<td class="alt1">
		<div class="smallfont">
			<div><strong>$vbphrase[thread]</strong>: <a href="showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]t=$post[p_threadid]">$post[t_title]</a></div>
			<div><strong>$vbphrase[post]</strong>: <a href="showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]p=$post[postid]#post$post[postid]">$post[p_title]</a></div>
		</div>
	</td>
	<td class="alt2">
		<if condition="$show['inprogress']">
			<em>$vbphrase[in_progress]</em>
		<else />
			<div class="smallfont">$post[postdate] <if condition="!$show['detailedtime']"><span class="time">$post[posttime]</span></if></div>
		</if>
	</td>
	<if condition="$show['deletebox']">
		<td class="alt1" align="center" style="padding:0px"><input type="checkbox" name="deletebox[$post[attachmentid]]" value="yes" /></td>				
	<else />
		<td class="alt1" align="center">&nbsp;</td>
	</if>
</tr>

Step 5: Call the script passing the "userid" variable of the users gallery you wish to view.

Example - I simply added the following code to my postbit template:

<a href="gallery.php?userid=$post[userid]&pp=10&showthumbs=1" target="new"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/gallery.gif" alt="<phrase 1="$post[username]">$vbphrase[gallery]</phrase>" border="0" /></a>

This allows the user to link to the gallery from anyone's posts. Then I uploaded the image to my button image directory. I've included an image you can use.

This even shows the location in Who's Online with no modifications necessary. Uploading/delete capabilities should be a simple addon, I'm working on it now.

Edit: Completely redone with it's own templates because it didn't like using vB's templates (hard coded URLs).

Edit: Changed template conditional making this 3.0.3 friendly.

Edit: Typo mysteriously appears in source making code fubar. Code revised and reuploaded.

Updated script down and uploaded, still no luck.

If you give me the url I'll take a look.

Edit, just saw the URL - looking now.

[x3n0]

I tried a user with known attachments:

http://www.zeewaterforum.org/forums/...php?userid=379

Are "Unregistered" users permitted to view and download attachments from your forum? Do you have thumbnails enabled?

The script ran and the page loaded, just without any attachments showing. Must be some difference with 3.0.3's queries or variables or perhaps I don't have the permissions. I will look into it this evening and get back to you.

BTW, I keep live reef aquariums too. I like your forum, too bad I can't read it I used to post at Albert Thiel's site quite often.

[Dennis01]

Thank you very much... And for reef aquariums, you (at least i assume your an american) have reefcentral.com !!!! Almost as nice :bandit:

[x3n0]

I'm German, living in the US.

I also don't support George Bush's actions.

[Dennis01]

Than you have the even better sites as http://www.meeresaquaristik.de/foren/ and korallenriff.de
Im from holland (dunno if you recognized the language) and for marineanimals I drive often to Germany, more shops better choise and prices

Ill check back tomorrownight,

thanks in advance

[x3n0]

I've been known to drive to Holland for the coffee shops!

[Highlander]

dont works, it shows 73 pages of attahcments but says NO ATTACHMENT AVAILABLE .. have the filesystem and version 3.0.0

Link:
http://spieleplanet.com/board/galler...0&showthumbs=1

nothing showing up

[Neal-UK]

Well i've installed this and even though I have attachments posted in the forum, it says I haven't with this mod.

Everything has been done correctly.

[x3n0]

I don't get it..... This is the same code vB uses to view attachments in the control panel. Can you guys see attachments from your control panel?
