This script will randomly select a photo from vbGallery and create a new thread in a specific forum with the photo and it's description. The script is run as a scheduled task in Vbulletin's Scheduled Tasks Manager.

Before uploading the script, you need to set which categories you want the photos to be selected from, the minimum width of the photo and the minimum amount of views that the photo has received.

Installation is easy, simply upload this script to the forums/includes/cron/ directory and create a new scheduled task. (See screen shot for suggested scheduled task parameters)

Tested on Vbulletin 3.6.4 and vbGallery 2.2
Confirmed to work on Vbulletin 3.6.8 and vbGallery 2.3
Confirmed to work on Vbulletin 3.7.0 and vbGallery 2.4.3
Confirmed to work on Vbulletin 3.8.2 and vbGallery 2.4.3
Confirmed to work on Vbulletin 3.8.3 and vbGallery 2.5

Please click install if you use this script.

This hack has been ported to PhotoPlog by TCooper.

I dont use either of the software, but if time permits, I will look into it.

The only problem is that it will select from private categories as well. Once I update the hack, ill have it exclude the private categories.
Due to the way private categories work, im going to leave the hack as is.

ahh ok, bummer. but no worries. at least it works any chance for the vbadvanced module though?


also, different suggestion (got this from a member andI think its a good one).... is there a way to make it post to a same thread?

ie. new photo of the day posts once a day to designated thread (ie: photo of the day thread). kinda makes it cleaner ... individual threads gets a little much after a while.

Good idea, that should be doable!

The way I have my photo of the day setup is that I created a forum just for it.
