Administrative and Maintenance Tools - Import External Images

This vBulletin 4 product imports external images in your posts from external servers or paths into a specific path, normally your forum's image folder.

Differently than the previous product Image Cache for vBulletin 3.x., it parses the posts at regular intervals for new images and replaces the external references in the background. Also, instead of using only a single folder, it creates folders for years and months, making it much easier to handle large quantities of images. The source and destination image URL's are stored into database, too, avoiding unnecessary duplicates.

It moves and optionally converts images from one place to another. It is a handy tool in order to keep your images local to your forums.

Version 1.0.4 is temporarily in BETA stage until the users have confirmed the newly requested features.
Version 1.0.5 is still in BETA stage. It adds a new bunch of additional features, one of which allows you to test your mathematical understanding ... and a few other to fine-tune CURL and socket timeouts, and resizing on the fly of too large images. If you don't know what these options do, please leave them at their default values.

Can you please send me the whole error via PM? As it looks here, there is no problem at all.

MySQL Error : MySQL server has gone away

This is an issue with your database server, there is nothing I can do about it.

I wonder if the host blocked it.. was working fine before.

No, but they have changed the server settings in order to reduce the server load. Eventually you can get it back working by reducing the number of imported images for every run.

I only had it set to 1...

Anyway we can get this to import Tapatalk images?

Figured it out. Great mod.

Thanks!

Question, I am having an issue where a few images are being replaced with different images from the source image. Source images and replacement images are all different in different posts/threads.

Any insight on this issue? Let me know what you need from me.

Thanks

In theory yes, however I'm unsure about the technical problems.

No idea. Unless the server is feeding random images ...
