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

Hmm mine seems to work fine, and I upgraded to 3.5.0 all the way from 3.0.3.

Where does your's begin to have problems?

[mpikounis]

There seem to be problems with the session. A logged in user (in vb) does not appear logged in when in 4images. In addition I get several errors in php error log. Here is an example of the errors:

Well I haven't checked my PHP error log but I found what you were talking about. It appears though that if you were logged in 4images before you upgraded it, you would still appear logged in. So I logged out, and I cannot log back in. Doesn't display any errors or anything though, just acts like you are but when you are not.

[mpikounis]

There is a problem with the session since vb 3.5 seems to handle session information differently. If anyone knows a way to deal with this it would be extremely helpful!

[mpikounis]

Ok, I think this is it. Edit the file sessions.php in the includes folder of 4images.

Find:

PHP Code:

($this->session_id = $this->read_cookie_data("sessionhash")) 


and replace with:

PHP Code:

($this->session_id = $this->read_cookie_data("bbsessionhash")) 


Now everything seems to work just fine. I have NOT tested this thoroughly so use at your own risk! Please let me know if it works or if there are any other problems.

when i changed this, 4images didn't show me as logged in anymore so it didn't work for me

[vBFreak]

Erm, I can't find any of the lines mentioned above in my sessions.php, I'm using 4images 1.7.1 and vBulletin 3.5.0 Gold... My sessions.php differs from the one used in 4images 1.7...

What can I do? Need help, the whole thingie isn't working anymore :/

[mtha]

For integration with vB 3.5.0, please check the following release:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=98640

Any support for vB 3.5.0 will be given over that thread!

Long time since the last activity....
However I'd like to ask if anyone has integrated his/her existing 4Images gallery V 1.7 into a vbulletin 3.6.8 ?
Really looking forward to find a solution to get my old gallery (900+ pictures ) into my new VB.

@mtha
As I do understand that all the coders do the work on hacks & mods for free, which is great, and they also have a real live beside this work, there is no way to demand anything. period.
However ) I would be willing to spend some money to get this thing done.
Is there any chance ?
