PP-Popup - Photo-Popup for Photopost
![]() Developer Last Online: Apr 2022 ![]() ![]() ![]() This modification is in the archives.
************************************************* PLEASE NOTE: This mod will be discontinued in this form. However, there now is a completely remade version that integrates vB's Albums and Photopost Gallery. Either one can be used alone or both together. URL to the new mod: http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=202385 *********************************************************** *** Preface and Credits *** This is my fist released mod, so please be patient with me ![]() When my long fostered Photopost-Popup, the well known and unrivaled Geek Gallery Popup, finally stopped working in IE I tried to find replacement. When I couldn't, I decided to tackle the job myself. Credits go to the Geek not only for the idea, but also for parts of the code - or at least for a very great many of hints I took from looking at it. Since The Geek granted permission to use his abandoned code as base for new development, I felt free to do so. While some of the code is close to his, especially the trouble-rousing injection-process of the images into the editor follows different lines altogether. Please note that this modification is Photopost only and there are no plans to change that - especially since I do not have other gallery software. I use this on my own live board, but will not be liable for any problems it may cause. Use at your own risk.The mod is fully functional and has been tested on
*** So, what does it do? *** If you have installed Photopost, your users can click on a link below the smilies on the right in the editor. A window will pop up, where your users can click on their uploaded photos to insert them into the editor. Upon insertion the script will detect whether editor is in wysiwyg or codeview-mode and act accordingly, so that in wysiwyg-mode the actual image will be visible. Several insert-options are available, and your users can choose from their own personal albums (or see all their uploaded photos). *** What's in it? *** Not much: 1 file-upload 1 product to import: bunch of phrases, a new Options-page in AdminCP and one template will be installed 1 template hack, done automatically if you're using TMS. *** Installation *** Is simple: Just upload pp-popup.php into your forum root, import the product file and - if you're using TMS, you're done, - if not, follow the instructions in templateedits.txt *** Configuration *** Just as easy: In the AdminCP go to vBuletin Options -> PP-Popup There you'll find detailed instructions. See screenshot below. *** Upgrade *** Just reimport the product-xml-file, overwriting the old version, and reupload the pp-popup.php. Thats all. *** Possible Pitfalls *** Different databases setup If your vB and PP use different databases, you'll have to activate the different databases setup in AdminCP/Options/PP-Popup. Furthermore, you'll have to give some information concerning the other database at the top of pp-popup.php file.*** Debug Mode *** There is a limited debug mode that shows some information only to administrators of the forum. Go to admincp, options and activate debug mode (set to yes). Now you'll find the debug informtion on the bottom of the popup. If you do not get mysql-errors, the popup seems to work but you do not see any photos, please provide the information given in the debug box (especially datadir and code). If there are links given to original image and thumbnail, you can click them. if they don't work, there's probably a problem with your path to datadir. *** Languages *** German language file included. Import via phrases system. *** Version history *** -- v1.0 - complete rewrite of different databases setup, now tested and working - added insert-options (7 different possibilities to insert images) - of course, everythings phrased (or so I hope) -- v0.3.1. - added several new phrases - changed templates accordingly. Please update template edits, TMS-users will receive those automatically - added debug system, see this post. -- v0.3 - new approach to implementing external PP-Database (if vB-db and PP-db are not the same). Should work, all db-Settings for PP are pulled from PP's config.inc.php, no more configuration needed than a simple yes/no-choice. -- v0.2 - fixed some issues in pp-popup.php that caused broken links (some hard coded paths changed into variables) - extended javascript for image-injection, now detects whether wysiwyg- or codeview-mode is active; therefore in wysiwyg-mode no longer code is visible upon injection, but the actual image -- v0.1 initial release Download Now Only licensed members can download files, Click Here for more information.

Hi cellarius nice idea!
I have some questions. 1: Does ist also work with vbGallery? 2: If you have pp installed in a different db, where in the admincp section can you edit the username and password for this db then? Or is it not needed cause the product is fetching these information from the pp config file?

So, here I am back: Took another approach to pulling PP-db-data out of config-inc.php. That was a real good idea!
Is this your setup? Do you have different dbs? I really'd like to know whether that works. Should - I pulled my own database settings, and though they're the same, I did'nt tell the script ![]() Screenshot for admincp will change in a minute.

I just installed on my board. My photopost and vb pull from different databases. Not sure if that's what is causing my problem but no photos are showing up. There is a cell for each one, and the correct number of them, but no photo is in them.
BTW, the phrase geek_gallery_open was not installed. Had to create it before the editor link would show up. No members have liked this post.

So you're not getting a db-error and the script is pulling information from the database; else you'd probably see a mysql-error or the result would be empty. Most likely there's something wrong with the path to data-dir where your photos are stored.
A possibility to check this would be: Look at the source code of the popup window. Look for Edit: By that I meant the html-source in your browser, not the files of the mod. Sorry for misunderstandigs.
The code should read something like:
Please look at the part:
Is the URL to the image thumb valid and does it correspond correctly to your gallery installation? You can check this easily by trying the URL in your browser window. If there is an error there, we can look to resolve it. If you want to, you can tell me your gallery settings (paths to gallery root and datadir) and copy the relevant part of the popup's source code here.

Just a vote to say very well done for doing this.
I'm just getting my dev server rebuilt and will install this on there with vB 3.8 to test it for you if you still need that. All we need now is a slick way of getting photo's in to Photopost and then it might actually be a decent integration. No members have liked this post.

Also the phrase geek_gallery_my_pictures isn't installed by the product file.

Not in the files, but in your browser, the html-source code. But wait a few minutes, just adding some more phrases (the one you mentioned among them) and a debug system.

There now is a debug modus that shows some information only to administrators of the forum.
Go to admincp, options and activate debug mode (set to 1). Now you'll find the debug informtion on the bottom of the popup. In the case of mfowler70: Are there Links for Original image and Thumbnail image? If you click them, do they work? If they do not work, there's something wrong with your paths. You may want to give the informtion given on Datadir and Code.
