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:

$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

i'm an problem :

- and when I am on the gallery, text "user online" does not apprait, but the person on line yes (look file attach "error2.gif")

an idea of the problem?

[Allan]

rooooooooooooooo

[mtha]

I guess my problem is somewhere in the sessions, if you notice in the who's online - the 4images is not showing the # of online members or guests!!
When you replace the original sessions.php file they appear correctly!

I'm using VB 3.0.7 !! Are there any updates for your hack for this VB version?

Regards,

I dont have any update for this hack yet. sorry mate.

@Allan
You can
- try to edit whos_online.html template.
- check {lang_user_online} in language file

This must be something to do with 4images itself. you can try to look over 4images website too.

Since I have to install this gallery, I have a problem of Cookies, I have to logguer me has every time, similar for the members

[BlackxRam]

Same thing here, ever since the upgrade to vbulletin 3.0.7 the 4images gallery doesn't track the login. You have to relogin every time. It worked with installations up to 3.0.3 but I made the skip from 3.0.3 to 3.0.7. So something changed in there.

[BlackxRam]

If i can get a guarantee on a fix I will pay for it, lol. I have 3000 members unable to view my gallery since the update to 3.0.7 and in my website gallery usage is a MUST.

Any takers?

let me take a look at your site, I will see what's going on. PM me with your info.

[Kaishi]

when there's an update for this for 3.07 i'll definitely install this. my site needs a gallery

[Lionel]

This works for me on 3.07. The only annoyance is the who's online not hiding hidden members, so I disabled it.

did u only follow the install instructions from the zip? or were there some fixs i have to do that i need to look for in 24 pages of this thread? XD

also i was looking at some pictures in the demo gallery, some of the pictures had a width greater than the design table that it was in. and it looked weird. is there a fix for that?

like this post for example, i'm using firefox btw http://www.randomforum.com/forums/ga...p?image_id=237
