vB3 Member Album 2.0

In vBulletin 3 there is an option for members to upload a profile picture. This hack provides more incentive for members to upload their picture, as it integrates a gallery to browse them all. :up:

In addition to browsing profile pictures, there is an option for viewing signatures. This comes in handy, for you don't have to browse through each individual member. Also, a "edit signature" link is provided for moderators, for fast access to editing signatures that aren't in accordance with your rules.

Other Features

• Require pictures to be approved in order to be visible. You can exempt specified usergroups from this.
• Thumbnails are generated for profile pictures. You must have GD installed and enabled via the AdminCP options page.
• For more insight, refer to the attached screenshots, or install it!

Upgrade to 2.0

• Redo steps 7-8, 11-12, 19-20, 26, 27, and 34
• Revert the template "modifyprofilepic", and do steps 29-32
• Run the following queries:
  [sql]
  ALTER TABLE `customprofilepic` ADD disapproved smallint(5) not null default'0';
  ALTER TABLE `customprofilepic` ADD reason varchar(100) not null;
  [/sql]

Notes

• This hack does not support uploading multiple images per account.
• Profile thumbnail sizes are defined by the attachment thumbnail sizes. So modify the attachment thumbnail sizes in your AdminCP options page if you wish to change the profile picture thumbnail sizes. Be sure to run "re-generate thumbnails" via the vB3 Member Album -> Approve Images" page.
• Profile picture sizes (not thumbnails) are defined for each usergroup. Modify a usergroup via AdminCP to change the dimensions members under that group are allowed to have for profile pictures.

Is there any way at all to uninstall this???

[blueuniverse]

Ok, I've finally managed to sort it by using phpmyadmin and manually uninstalling each table entry.

Okay, so it was working fine, despite the SQL mess up.

Something else happened and I had to start over. I followed the new install without a hitch and left out the default value in the one SQL statement.

Seemed great, I was happy. Wrong. Still bunches of little red x's.

Anything else I can try? I cleared the browser cache and even rebooted the server.

Thanks,

Anybody?

In admin cp under vb3 gallery "verify pictures" they are all X for some reason. I do have GD2 installed and working fine.

How do I correct this?

when you select your database click on sql : )

I think the only thing wrong with this hack is that the thumb images are not generated. This seems to be due to some issue with the database.

If I read things correctly the thumbs are stored there.

Can't anybody have a look at this and get it fixed? It's a great hack, shame to let it die from something so simple.
