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:

Code:

$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

The integration simply integrates vB's user database with 4images - so if you are logged into your vB forum, you are also logged into 4images. No need for two separate logins. It makes it very convienant (sp?) for your users - they don't need to signup for your forums and image gallery.

- Use vBulletin's user database to access 4images album
All forum's members can access your 4images album and upload pictures (depends on permissions). You dont need to register twice in forum and album.

I have another question about adding to this hack... when you view your forum's Who's Online page it shows any user who's browsing the gallery as "Viewing Index" and the link below goes to the forum index. How would you edit it to say "Viewing Gallery" and the link below links to your gallery?

KTBleeding · #35 06-23-2004, 05:30 AM

mtha, say I'm running more than one 4images on my site..
I'm using one for a .. let's say "classified" script, and the other as an "album" script.

In the "functions_online.php" how would I make it so one says, "Browsing Album" and the other say, "Browsing Classifieds"??

Read the instruction file and follow the steps carefully.

There's a part in step 4 to do it:

======================
<edit file>
includes/functions_online.php
</edit file>
======================

<search for>

PHP Code:


			
 switch($userinfo['activity'])
{

</search for>
<add after>

PHP Code:


			
// Album user online Mod
case 'album':
$userinfo['action'] = 'Browsing album';
$userinfo['where'] = "<a href=\"$userinfo[location]\">$userinfo[location]</a>";
break;
// End

</add after>
======================
<search for>

PHP Code:


			
 else
{
$userinfo['activity'] = 'modcp';
}
return $userinfo;
}

</search for>
<add after>

PHP Code:


			
// Album user location 
else if (strpos($token, "/album/") !== false)
{
{
$userinfo['activity'] = 'album';
}
return $userinfo;
}

</add after>
======================

make sure that you have that part correct
and remember to correct the token too

else if (strpos($token, "/album/") !== false)

same as above, you have another token for /classified/ add add the same code (replace the name) in the places

by the way, the $token will read the value from $userinfo['location'];
if you dont have the location field for album different from forum's, you may get in trouble with this

what's the different?

No. I design the skin to match my site, I dont look for free skins. sorry cant help here

of course it's only the 4iamges, and even with the forum the whole database couldn't be that much.
the difference is: I thought all GVN's work is of BM, as far as I've heard from others admin, BM takes care almost all the important things of GVN. now I see you are a good hacker then you may do some role in GVN life ^^
sorry to going off topic. I'm going to install 4images to trouble you by this hack
mtha do you plan to make any hacks ? like a music online hack which fully uses vb3 template and function ? I am looking for a good hack like it.

KTBleeding · #38 06-23-2004, 03:37 PM

Okay, I just reinstalled this mod and when I go directly to the gallery, I'm logged in, but some of my users aren't.. They are logged in to vB, but not 4images.

Was this fix supposed to check if they are logged into vB and have them be logged into 4images, or is it basically they go to the gallery, log in, and then it keeps them logged in/remembered?

CreedFeed · #39 06-23-2004, 04:54 PM

Ahh I just realized I have been looking at the wrong installation file. I've been looking at the old one posted on the 4images website - the one made before this thread. That's why I didn't have the fix for the who's online thing, as that isn't in that installation file. Whoops!

This hack supposed to allow you login directly to album AND login to forum then go to album.

It is working fine in my album/forum

why dont YOU try to test it yourself? doing this:
- login to your album (without "remember me" checked)
- login to your album (with "remember me" checked) and close browser and come back to album
- login to your forum (with/without "remember me" checked) and browse to album from there.

Make sure that you CLEAN your cookies before doing this (just to make sure that you dont have other cookie problems)

come back and let me know how it works.

It you can do it fine, and your member cant do it, then the problem could be at your member's side, tell him to clear his cookies or check his computer

if you get trouble too, register for me an account over your forum/album, and PM to me, I will take a look

CreedFeed, do you have everything working as it's supposed to?

if you look at this hack, you will see some part if this one from him. He's a great coder though, and he does take care of all the important things of GVN. and you are really funny too. you think that I, having a administrator title, do no role in GVN life? :tired:

No I dont. There're too many "music online" scripts, and I am not interested in this.

CreedFeed · #41 06-23-2004, 06:35 PM

mtha,

Actually I'm still having a problem. It seems that the session fix thing isn't working in Mozilla and Firefox. It works in IE, but not the other two. I've cleared my cookies and all that stuff.

What I'm going to do is reinstall the 4images gallery from the beginning because I ended up missing some of the steps from that installation file. I want to be sure I have done everything. I'll update my status when I'm done. Starting this now...

CreedFeed · #42 06-23-2004, 08:23 PM

I just installed twice and it still isn't working.

mtha, I just signed up for your forums/gallery. When I login through your gallery page, then close my browser, reopen, and go to your gallery it shows me as not logged in. ??

BlackxRam · #43 06-23-2004, 09:10 PM

MTHA!!!! YOU DID IT!!! IT WORKS COMPLETELY!!!! YOU ARE THE MAN! IF I WAS NEAR YOU I WOULD KISS YOU!!!!!!

ANYONE still having problems, start with a fresh install or fresh unhacked VB and 4IMAGES files... if you go slow you can't mess it up... ITS PERFECT! YOU ROCK!!! NO MORE LOGGING OUT!!! WOOHOO

STAND UP JOB MTHA!!!

CreedFeed · #44 06-24-2004, 12:57 AM

Mine seems to only remember sessions for admins now. Normal users are not remember as being logged in.

I'm pretty sure that's the same case as me.

I was wondering why the code is still there, but my testing version was working fine (as I was being an administrator), so I didnt investigate more

Sorry guys.

the new sessions.php in the first post was updated.

basically, you will only need to change the condition:

Look for:

PHP Code:


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

replace with

PHP Code:


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

this is applied for the sessions.php file in the first post. if you have the VBLICENCE_NUMBER here, just need to replace > USER_AWAITING with != USER_AWAITING
or you can remove the whole
&& $this->user_info['user_level'] != USER_AWAITING

well, I see this doesnt make alot of sence to force those who are awaiting for email confirmation not to be "remembered". but it was is the original code, so ... I just leave it there in case someone use it.

sorry.
