Photopost vba gallery module

[acers]

Before i even give the code,
let me say that i made this module for my site based on what i wanted. It certainly is not the comprehensive module you see as "display images on forumhome" kind where you have the image info also being displayed (although doing this would be easy.. but i didn't cos i didn't need :) )and checks for permissions.

I just wanted a teaser of my gallery to be shown in the movie section and so i used this.

I am releasing the module code for you guys. Geek,, just have a look if i am not doing something atrocious :p i haven't got the hang of caching so i just saw one of your module code and added the caching part to mine


USAGE:
Put the vbgallery.php file to your mods folder
thats geek/gars/mods

go to modules, select register new module
add vbgallery.php
you don't need to cache template cos its anyway cached but enter
GARS_mod_container

give suitable title
save
go to module sets...
place the module anywhere you want
you have following options

Important: this assumes that your gallery is under gallery/ folder. If not edit the file

1) which cats to take image from
2) how many to take
3) vertical or horizontal

demo:
horizontal: http://www.techenclave.com/forums/king-kong-64183.html
vertical: http://www.techenclave.com/forums/movie-reviews/



if this goes ok i will release some more mods :)

Acers,

The title links of the articles, as well as the "..." link, all go to dead pages.

umm u sure..
its ok for me

just checked.. all are going to the right places

Is it possible to set it to show only images relating to review to the review? At the moment you can only specify a few gallerys which show random images for all reviews...

[acers]

would it help if i add a option when you edit the post to add the image ids of image?
and then it will show only those image ids.. randomizing between them

basically i added galleries as those are one time for all forums.. but if you want i can do it that way also.

btw have a look at this ... just in case this is what you need

Adding image ids would be great. Would this be able to be set for individual reviews?

[acers]

yep... can make that available at edit time or creation time..

you want randomization or all of them to be displayed?

[zgeek]

Having them show all at once would be best. Thanks heaps for doing this :)

[acers]

hi np..
will do it in the new year.. :)

Thank you for this modification, it would be great if you could do it with the image id's.
I need only one image instead of 4 and the possibility instead the standard header image module the option to give also a image id for the thumbnail picture of the gallery.
Only if it's not to much work, thanks.

[zgeek]

Any word on this?

[acers]

forgot ll about this

:D

sorry will release it soon.

[zgeek]

Thanks dude.. a image module like this is going to make GARS very, very sexy.

Wanted to change the path from www.mydomain.com/forum/gallery to www.mydomain.com/gallery
Original code:
$images[url]=$vbulletin->options['bburl'] . '/gallery/files/' . implode('/', preg_split('//', $images[userid], -1, PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY));
Changed code:
$images[url]=$vba_options['gallery_url'] . '/gallery/files/' ;

So far it was working, but if somebody was writing a comment the gars thread wasn't more accessible and get following error:
Die Cookies konnten nicht gesetzt werden, da der Header schon an den Browser geschickt wurde.
Datei: /home/www/web153/html/forum/geek/gars/mods/vbgallery.php
Zeile: 71
Anybody can help me?

this is for vba gallery not pp gallery

[ziG]

can something like this be made for photopost pro? with category ID's so that it displays only photos from certain categories instead of just random pictures. this would be a perfect addition to the GARs scrip imo.
