4images Gallery 1.7

A lot of people, both here and at 4homepages.de have been requesting for a mod/hack that would integrate vBulletin 3 RCX with 4images 1.7 lately. The solutions are scattered around the forums, but nobody has it all in one page.

So I've decided put them all togather, and release it, so it will be easier for people to do the intigration successfully.

Please note that all the codes in this hack/mod are property of Jan and mtha.

I have tested this on vBulletin 3.0.0 RC3 and it worked successfully.

Features:

• Uses your existing vBulletin powered forum's login account for authentication.
• Uses your existing vBulletin powered forum's whos online feature
• Can be modified to display any information from your existing vBulletin database, perticularly from the "user" table, which means you can display any information about the logged in user.
• Since it is integrated with the database, you can display any gallery information such as latest picture, how many pictures a member have submitted etc... on your vBulletin powered forum.
• Extra modifications can be found here

(Please note the gallery sports a custom style, not the default)

Elmer's code does use the variables and settings from the forum style

I meant i want the gallery script, like its main page and all of that, to show up like the boards style.

Oh ...I am sorry ...

You could do that, you have to make the script use the template in the vB database instead of the file in the templates folder. I will try to come up with something

No need to say sorry when theres nothing to be sorry for Consider it a request

If you could make it work with the boards style scheme i will make you my new god (Html isnt my thing)

What is your directory structure? Like where are the forum and the gallery folders located? Did you change this "http://www.yoursite.com/forums/" line in your sessions.php? And its sessions.php of the 4images folder though, not your vBulletin sessions.php

Thanks Matrixgl for your replay,

Well the cookie domain or my site is .showtimemag.com it's always been that.

my forum is located at:
http://www.showtimemag.com/forum/

my gallery is located at:
http://www.showtimemag.com/forum/media/

And yes I edited everything in the 4images sessions.php file.

Any more ideas for why this is happening to me?

nice to see the hack posting over here, thanks Matrixql. I didnt think that so many people will get interested like this

This is a complete hack, doing fine on what it does. If you want to do more than that, you are free to do more tweaking or hacks or whatever.

I meant i want the gallery script, like its main page and all of that, to show up like the boards style

I suggest you look over at photopost.com. They have exactly what you need, except for ... it's not free.

When I installed this ... it logged everyone out of my forum.... and I couldn't log into the media gallery.

It logged EVERYONE or it log you out of the forum?
if it kicks everyone out of the forums, means it may delete the session table somehow, to write in some incorrect way.

Check your sessions.php file.

by the way, I've clicked the install button


Charlie just login and go to the gallery and you will be able to upload pics with the same username in the foros

Also I've added another hack that shows the resents images from the gallery in the forums

Hi Elmer

I just noticed the gallery, but I think is killing the server because the charge of the page is too slow.

Btw nice girl

See Ya
