Add PhotoPost Pro to each forum.

This hack will allow you to fill-in catagories from Photopost Pro to display in a film strip format under the $navbar. This will show in every thread of the forum as well.

1 querry

• 1 template
• 4 Fields
• 1 file upload
• 3 plugins
• 5 phrases

Tested on:

• vBulletin 3.5.4
• PhotoPost Pro 5.21

Each forum extra options:

- Image Count:
(How many images would you like to show ?)

- Image Order:
(Enter 1 for newest, 2 for most viewed, 3 for most comments, 4 for highest rated, 5 for random.)

- Select Catagory(s):
(Here you can list catagories you wish to show images from. EX: 1,10,20)

- Show Imagebit:
(Title, Description, Rating, Username, Views, Dimensions, and more.)

I think default a image (some media icon) vs. a freezframe clip is placed as a thumbnail.

I saw in inc_features.php and inc_vbcat that the codes didn't fetched medie other then image formats like *jpg, gif and so on. I've added my self mpg. mpeg, avi and wmv. These files are now showing in forumhome, but without thumbnails

I'll have to look @ that. I did not test on non-images.

ya I do not see a problem. I do not think the DB has changed.

[TheOutdoors]

I've reinstalled this 3 times and I'm getting the same error. When I go to edit a forum to update the settings, and click Save, I receive the error "MySQL Error : Unknown column 'ppgcount' in 'field list'"

I uncommented out the lines in inc_vbcat.php to point to my PP database (it's separate from my VB database), but I still get this error.

It's like the database table wasn't updated properly with the new fields...what do I do next?
