Picture Gallery for vB4
This is a simple mod written out of frustration with the lack of such a basic feature in vb4 (and vb3, etc....) http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/images/smilies/mad.gif
Features:
Adds a Gallery drop-down menu to the nav bar which allows browsing AND searching of all pictures and albums on the site.
The search function searches the album title album description, picture caption AND username.
If any usergroup AdminCP->Usergroups->UserGroup Manager->Unregistered/Not Logged has Can View Albums set to "yes" then members of that group will be able to browse and search the album and picture galleries BUT they may NOT be able to view the actual albums or full-size pictures unless their permissions allow.Tested with Vbulletin 4.0.2 (note: earlier versions have not been tested and are not supported) AND vBadvanced 4 beta1.
Settings:
None are needed - it does what it says on the tin http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/images/smilies/tongue.gif.
AdminCP->Options->User Profile:Album Options "Pictures Per Page" and "Albums Per Page" control the number of thumbnails displayed per page in each gallery.
The gallery pages are phrased - the drop down menu isn't. To change the menu text, edit the plug-in Gallery popup menu (documented in the code). There is also an option in the code to show an inactive menu to unregistered users
Installation
Unzip the download package and copy the files albumall.php and picall.php into your forum folder.
Go to the VB AdminCP->Plugins & Products click "Manage Products". The click "Add/ImportProduct" at the bottom of the page.
Click "Browse" button and point to the product-gallery-(etc).XML file included in this ZIP package.
Click "Import"
... all done
Updates
v1.03b
Major update - product MUST be completely removed and reinstalled (including uploading new albumall.php and picall.php files!
Changed permissions to allow guests to view thumbnail galleries
Added phrasing for main gallery code.
Removed navbar template - replaced by plug-in code
Changed album display template from albumbit to album_latestbit (it works better!)
Various template mods to clean up display
v1.02b
Wasn't remembering search query between pages.
This is my first "proper" product so comment/criticism/etc is welcome http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif
Have fun.........
