Menalto's G2 integration into VB3
NOTE: Development for G2.1 and vB 3.5 is on this page: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=111931 I was about to post this on Menalto's site until i realized that I'd be publicly posting VB3's code... A no-no!!! heh! So, I'll post the instructions here, and then refer people to this post on how to do it! (obviously they'll have to log on w/ their licensed account to see it) Ok, here's how to integrate menalto's G2 gallery into VB3. Menalto's gallery is sweet. Menalto's gallery is free. Menalto's gallery is here: http://gallery.menalto.com/index.php This works on my system of vBulletin 3.0.7 and Gallery 2 Holy Hand Grenade. Known issues: VB3 has a password structure that consists of the user's password plus the salt md5'ed together. It is not possible to strip out just the user's password. Thus, this script pushes the users's password plus salt from VB3 into G2. The outcome - the standalone G2 passwords will not match *just* the user's password! There is talks of looking into salt'ing in the future w/ G2 integration, but that's the dealio as of this integration technique... If you are using G2 as 'embedded only', then game on, no worries. If not, then your users will need to log on through the VB3 install to setup their session, then can visit the G2 standalone if they wish... Step 1 - create a new file named 'gallery2.php' as per this thread: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=62164 (thx Gary King!!!) in that thread, the first box (the gallery2.php file), the contents will be (this is the section that contains the G2 embeded code which is available on Menalto's site... i'll update this thread w/ direct links once it's in place! *only* the G2 code is on their site, no VB3 code in accordance w/ the VB license agreement! ): Code:

$ret = GalleryEmbed::init(array('embedUri' => 'gallery2.php', 'embedPath' => '/VB', 'relativeG2Path' => '../gallery2', 'loginRedirect' => 'index.php', 'activeUserId' => $uid)); Code:
require_once('../gallery2/embed.php'); step 2 - creating the template as per the same thread, https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=62164 (2nd code box) create a template named 'gallery2' (no tics) and in it, place the following code: Code:
$stylevar[htmldoctype] <html dir="$stylevar[textdirection]" lang="$stylevar[languagecode]"> <head> $headinclude $data[headHtml] </head> <body> $header $navbar <table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center"> <tr><td class="tcat">Gallery</td></tr> <tr><td class="alt1">$data[bodyHtml]</td></tr> </table> $footer </body> </html> oh, forgot to add! in scouring the net, i've seen a couple of posts where people have offered to pay for this solution. if you are one of them, and are serious, then here's Menalto's donation link! (nope, i'm not affiliated w/ them... if you wanna donate to me, then i'll redirect you to the donation link to the site that this is for: a non-profit saltwater aquariast club's site! ) edit 2006.01.11 Quote:

After 2 days of usage, the verdict is brilliant! I couldn't be more happy, as I've been waiting forever to be able to merge these 2 babies together...
My old Gallery1 albums all imported accross beautifully... the permissions I'm able to set for different usergroups is excellent... I'm over the moon... Cheers Whodah! This should be turned into an official integration hack as soon as Gallery2 becomes RC or full release. |

i'm glad you like it!
as an update: sounds like the mod_rewrite redirection method in integration is becoming obsolete and they're working on a session/cookie based method for multi-directory, multi-embeded (cms, whatever) and even... mutli-site! integration... it should be up on the CVS soon from what i read on the gallery forums. for the random block: i had it up on our site, then it was erroring out. i think i was initializing it wrong... but i think i've got it straightened out. a couple more days of testing and i'll post it! hey, anyone doing this w/ G2b3? if so - do your users get logged out of G2 after you 'surf around' G2 a bit? after about 5 navigations through G2, my IE users are getting logged out. my FF users stay logged in. i was wondering if anyone can replicate this? |

Whodah,
I just went live with my site today and the one problem I'm having is with the other Admin. Anyone else who logs into the site, Gallery2 creates an account automatically and then permissions can be set on the individuals album. However, when the other admin logs in, he gets the following error message and an account is never created for him:- line: 107, G2 did not return a success status. Here is the error message from G2: Error (GALLERY_SUCCESS) in at line 0 Any idea what this could be? Thanks bud! |

I followed the instructions as requested, but I can't seem to get mine working.
www.guardianbrotherhood.org www.guardianbrotherhood.org/forums (vb3) www.guardianbrotherhood.org/forums/gallery2.php My gallery install is in www.guardianbrotherhood.org/forums/gallery and when I go to the php it gives me: Code:
Unable to add cookies, header already sent. File: /home/guardian/public_html/gb/forums/gallery2.php Line: 1 Ok... it looks like it's working now, but it's not picking up the color scheme/theme of my main vb site. Also, I'm curious how I can control the permissions of users for the gallery???? It's also not letting me upload any pictures to any of the albums... the remote won't download, the xp tab doesn't work, even the java applet complains about something.. HELP!!! My members have been begging for a picture gallery and I have been DESPERATELY trying to get one working that doesn't cost a fortune. I'd even be willing to pay someone to help me get this working right on my site... just PLEASE help. |

ZED28: will your 2nd admin be entering the gallery stictly from vB3? i.e. will NOT be entering it through the standalone version? (not to be confused w/ accessing, we're talking entering here)
if so (and hopefully how it is!!) - i'd visit yer G2, delete the 2nd admin. then have the 2nd admin log on to vB3, click yer gallery2.php integration file, the integration script will then create the 2nd admin user. you'll then have to go in as the 1st admin and edit the 2nd admin's account to make them an admin as at this point, they'd just be a regular user. Zeoran: can you post your gallery2.php file and gallery2 template? |

quick rundown:
my main site is www.zeoran.com. I'm running vb and the gallery on www.guardianbrotherhood.org which is a sub-domain pointer off my main site. So the web for guardianbrotherhood.org is under /home/guardian/public_html/gb/. I installed the gallery under the forums directory which is at www.guardianbrotherhood.org/forums/gallery. here is my gallery2.php Code:

Whodah,
I'm still tinkering with the admin problem I was having and that's on the back burner right now, I haven't heard from the guy to know if it's still a problem. But on a totally unrelated note; I have changed my theme quite a bit and of course, the standard theme that comes with Gallery is not suitable so I changed the values in the Gallery CSS (Matrix) to make it fit my vBulletin theme. Well then I get to asking myself what I'm going to do if I want a different skin? LOL So I tried something that just seemed too easy for words, I copied the entire contents of the Matrix theme.css file from Gallery and apended it to the "Additional CSS Definitions" section of the Main CSS for my theme, deleted or renamed the original style.css file in Gallery and voila! Switch themes in VB and the Gallery does the same! Now of course, you do have to create a matching CSS file for Gallery to match your chosen theme but once you have done that, copy the modified CSS as stated above and that should work! |
