NEW Latest Album Pictures - Forum Home
It shows the pictures added to the albums on the main page. It shows only the public mentioned files. If not shows the reasons are: vbulletin settings show albums must be enabled.
The user grup that owns the pictures must be enabled show picture setting. Or there is no picture to show.
Additionally you can slect the number of pictures that can be shown.
Hope it works for you as I like it very much.
install
Go to your admin cp, then:
Plugin System -> Manage Products -> [Add/Import Product] -> Select 'product-newalbum.xml' from your computer then press 'Import'
This does not seem to uninstall from vb5. Following the uninstall option yields apparent success, but it still appears as an option under Settings, and when you go back to >Products it's there again...
Edit: disabling seems to work, but not uninstalling.
Unless I am missing something, which is entirely possible, the mod doesn't currently respect profile privacy settings. As an example, if a member selects that only friends can see their album the thumbnails from that album may still be displayed. Arguably if the member has selected that option then the thumbnails shouldn't be displayed either.
To fix this the main SQL select needs to change to include:
LEFT OUTER JOIN profileblockprivacy AS pbp ON (pbp.userid = album.userid AND pbp.blockid = 'album')
and
AND (pbp.requirement = 0 OR pbp.requirement IS null)
Has this been included in the mod or is it still a privacy nightmare?
I have installed this mod on my site. Everything seems to be working fine, and thanks to the help from post #140 I now have it on the navbar. The problem I am having is that I have a few random pictures that show up larger than others. I ran the "Rebuild Recently Updated Albums" as others have suggested, but that didn't seem to solve the problem.

Ok so I've been wanting this above my forum as alot of people and seeing the one post that told how to do it got me wanting it more, but I have an ad and don't want to replace it. So here is what I did to get it up on the top of the forum, and can be collapsed. this does take a decent amount of editing to do, and use these steps at your own risk, and I hope im not imposing too much by sharing these changes to get the result I was looking for
Go to products and edit the New Album Picture Forum Home product
replace
So I've been wanting to do this, but I can't figure out how to edit the product.
If I edit the XML file I see $template_hook['forumhome_wgo_pos2'] .= $templater->render();
NOT: 'forumhome_wgo_pos1'
is that the correct line? Or am I looking in the wrong place?
The only way I figured out how to edit the product was the XML file itself then re-upload it.
BTW - I have recently disabled this plug in due to it not showing images correctly in Internet Explorer. I have not yet gone through this though to see if it is something else with in my site causing the issue other than this plug in.
