[Beta 1.5.1RC1 & 1.4.1] Photo Gallery Mod

[Angel Skin]

When I try to import new pics I get

List of new pictures

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: db_connect() in /home/sites/site284/web/yabbse/gallery/searchnew.php on line 42

@ Angel Skin: Yup, that's broken. Hopefully it will get fixed in the next version. For now we have been adding the pictures one at a time (Yeah PITA).

[Angel Skin]

Thanks.  Do you have any idea what the upload error is about?  I checked line 300 and I can't see what would be wrong with it.

PS the site is http://www.splintmusic.co.uk/yabbse

Argument 4 is the title argument for the picture. Did you edit the upload page to use a different variable or something?

I tested the upload thing on your site. I believe the image is being uploaded, but the entry is not added to the DB because the function is not being aclled with the correct parameters. Hope this helps.

[Nerd3d]

Yep, yep, I see it. You've replaced the "title" field with a name field. That could work, but the name of the text box needs to remain as "title" or you will need to do some serious hacking to change that.

[Angel Skin]

No I left it as it is.

Not sure what you mean about the parameters.  The only thing I did was use a newer version as the mysql for my site isn't localhost.  I'll try again!

Where do I change the field to a title field?

[Angel Skin]

Ok now I've changed it and I get this error

An Error Has Occurred!

Users are not allowed to upload images.

hmm... i don't know why that error occured
in db_input.php, line 200:

Code Select Expand

         if(!add_picture($album, $CONFIG['userpics'], $picture_name, $title))
and in function.inc.php, line 297:

Code Select Expand

function add_picture($aid, $filepath, $filename, $title)
so they "should" be fine...

did u get that error when trying to upload a new pic or use the search image feature?
what changes did u make to the source files?
i noticed that your gallery is empty, were u able to upload successfully before applying the patch?

[Angel Skin]

I'd never tried uploading.  The db_input.php line was wrong.  I've changed that and the new error message I got trying to upload a low resolution jpeg is


The picture 'albums/userpics/Leon 1.jpg' can't be inserted in the album

The image you have uploaded is corrupted

[Spaceman-Spiff]

To get the search new function working, edit addpic.php, search for:

Code Select Expand

if (add_picture($aid, $dir, $pic)){and replace with

Code Select Expand

if (add_picture($aid, $dir, $pic, '')){

as simple as that

Hi Spaceman!

Perhaps you want a better galley software - look at www.4homepages.de

This is a really great stuff of software.

[Spaceman-Spiff]

i went there when i was trying to find a gallery script for my community long time ago
the script is too bloated to integrate with YSE, it has its own login system, etc
it does have lots of powerful & neat features, but that also means it will be more difficult to integrate with YSE
Coppermine was simple and easier to integrate to YSE, thats the main reason why i chose it

I like the idea of the gallery mod for yabbse. But i'm a newb and dont have alot of confidence in myself about adding this mod. Is there a set of more detailed instructions for the install. The readme file is sorta vauge on a lot of issues. Dont want to screw up my board, took me along time to get it working right to begin with.


thanks

Tony

Tonyc, let's see how much of a newb you really are...

Have you used Board Mod?
Familiar with creating folders and CHMOD in your FTP program?
Know the "Real Path" to your www folder on your server?

If you answer yes to these questions you probably won't have any problems getting this going.
