[Beta 1.5.1RC1 & 1.4.1] Photo Gallery Mod

[iccwz02]

When I try to install a "Photo Gallery Mod", one of step is run 'Gallery0.9.mod' in BoardMod. I have download BoardMod (bm252setup.exe) from www.boardmod.org, but I don,t know how to use it.

- download the zip version, unzip it somewhere
- go to Mods directory and delete everything there, make a new directory called 'YSE1.5.1' and put my .mod file there
- load the boardmod.exe
- browse for index.php (your yabb se files)
- apply the mod
- upload the changed files (i think only english.lng and subs.php)

read the BoardMod site's FAQ for more info

I still have the following error when I loading the install.php page:

Notice: Undefined index: test_gd2 in D:\cgi-bin\yabbse\gallery\install.php on line 585

Notice: Undefined index: phpinfo in D:\cgi-bin\yabbse\gallery\install.php on line 592

Notice: Undefined index: impath in D:\cgi-bin\yabbse\gallery\install.php on line 71

The installer can not find the '
Notice: Undefined index: impath in D:\\\\cgi-bin\\\\yabbse\\\\gallery\\\\install.php on line 301
/' directory you have specified for ImageMagick or it does not have permission to access it. Check that your typing is correct and that you have access to the specified directory.

curious, which are you using for images, GD2 or ImageMagic? If you are using GD2 you should have a path for Image magic. I only ask because both are referred to in the error messages.

Does I need to change "ImageMagick configuration" in install.php?

What is ImageMagick? Does I need install it at my server?

[JRCarr]

Yes, ImageMagick needs to be loaded on the server to use.  I don't have any experience with ImageMagick yet so can't tell you much about it, but it can be downloaded for free.  If this is not your own server and is a host, you need to find out what they have loaded, GD1 or GD2. My host has the GD1 so that is what I set my gallery setting to use.  If you will create a file called phpinfo.php and place the single line
<? phpinfo(); ?>  into it and ftp it up to you server and call it: www.yourdomain.com/whereyouputit/phpinfo.php you can see whether they are running GD1 or GD2.  You will find it do the list about half way under the section "gd".  Then set your gallery to the right one and remove any path you may have listed in the ImageMagicK path on the gallery settings.

i dont know why the installer wont pick up the values from Settings.php :|
is your settings.php located in the parent directory of the gallery installer?

im attaching a galler test installer, u'll need to open the file and edit the db settings first before running it

I will try that installer. Also, my Settings.php in in my forum directory along with template.php and English.lng etc... I also have the gallery directory created within my forum directory.. just like the Sources and YaBBImages directories.

Sorry but now the error I get is:

mySQL could not locate a database called '' please check the value entered for this


All of my Database settings are in the new intaller correctly.

EDIT - It looks like I had to add $db_name to the global line. Now it installed.

I still have the following error when I loading the install.php page:

Notice: Undefined index: impath in D:\cgi-bin\yabbse\gallery\install.php on line 71

The installer can not find the '

/' directory you have specified for ImageMagick or it does not have permission to access it. Check that your typing is correct and that you have access to the specified directory.

u're on windows server, i guess some directory names will need to be changed, but before that, a question: do you have GD installed in your server?
ImageMagick is just optional, it has GIF file support, which GD1 and 2 dont have

@ Zombie: i dont know much about ImageMagick settings, can u try to post here: http://www.chezgreg.net/cpgboard/ in Coopermine 1.0 support, explain about your GD and IM settings
hopefully ppl there will know more about those stuff...

A couple of my members are having the same problem when posting comments, no one has complained about getting this error any where else.  I have been looking but find no reason for this error yet.  Any guess Space-Spiff

OK. Now that I finally got the gallery installed (thanks Spaceman-Spiff), how can I make it look like all of the rest? Mine is not formated.. CHECK IT HERE

Hi Spaceman-Spiff,

I am using WIN2k Server with IIS web service, I have following the procedure of installation, but still can't install the Photo Gallery. Any more step I have missing at the installation.



Installation Steps:
-------------------
1. upload 'gallery.gif' into your YaBBImages directory

2. run 'Gallery0.9.mod' in BoardMod (I find a MOD  file with file name "GalleryInstaller_v0.9_yse1.5.1.mod", is it correct?)

3. edit your forum template and add these tags:
   - <yabb galleryMenu> Recommended place: right after <yabb menu>("<TD bgColor=#afc6db><FONT size=1><yabb menu><yabb galleryMenu></FONT></TD>", is it correct?)
   - <yabb galleryHeader> Recommended place: inside <head> after YSE <style> tag("<HTML><HEAD><TITLE><yabb title></TITLE>
<STYLE type=text/css><yabb galleryMenu>A:link {", is it correct?)
   - <yabb galleryBodyTag> inside <body> tag, example: <BODY text=#000000 link=#0033ff bgColor=#f5f5f5<yabb gallerybodytag>>("<BODY text=#000000 link=#0033ff bgColor=#f5f5f5<yabb galleryBodyTag>>", is it correct?)

4. create a folder for your gallery inside YSE directory, recommended directory name: 'gallery'

5. upload everything in Coppermine package acording to the directories (I extract "CoppermineYSE1.5.1-RC3.zip" to 'gallery' folder which inside Yabbse directory)

6. CHMOD 777 these directories: 'gallery', 'include' & 'userpics' (inside'albums')(I change these folder full access for "Everyone" in Win2k)

7. CHMOD 666 'style.css')(I change this file full access for "Everyone" in Win2k)

8. run install.php and follow the instructions(I have got the following error when I run install.php:

Notice: Undefined index: test_gd1 in D:\cgi-bin\yabbse\gallery\install.php on line 577

Notice: Undefined index: test_gd2 in D:\cgi-bin\yabbse\gallery\install.php on line 585

Notice: Undefined index: phpinfo in D:\cgi-bin\yabbse\gallery\install.php on line 592

Notice: Undefined index: impath in D:\cgi-bin\yabbse\gallery\install.php on line 71

Notice: Undefined index: impath in D:\cgi-bin\yabbse\gallery\install.php on line 286

After I click "Let's Go" button, I have got following error:
The following errors were encountered and need to be corrected first:

The installer can not find the '
Notice: Undefined index: impath in D:\\cgi-bin\\yabbse\\gallery\\install.php on line 301
/' directory you have specified for ImageMagick or it does not have permission to access it. Check that your typing is correct and that you have access to the specified directory.
)


For Security:
-------------
After done installing, set 'gallery' and 'include' directory back to CHMOD 775.


Post Installation Config:
-------------------------
- to edit settings, u must be logged on as the admin, then click the 'Gallery Settings' button inside Gallery
- to edit gallery menu, open 'functions.inc.php' inside 'includes' directory, search for "function yygalleryMenu()"

one more error in Explorer Taskbar when i click on comments field.

this what i see in Taskbar -->error on page


one more thing:To see the comments field I have to remove this code $exif = exif_read_data($filename,0,true); from line 58 in exif.inc.php file.

OK. Now that I finally got the gallery installed (thanks Spaceman-Spiff), how can I make it look like all of the rest? Mine is not formated.. CHECK IT HERE

The <yabb galleryHeader></HEAD> should look like this in your forum template.
