Styleshhet problems with PP and VB3.5

[mclare]

I just upgraded to vb 3.52 and PhotoPost's latest version and I am also running vbPortal (latest version) and now my integrated style sheets are not working. Here is the URL: http://www.artists-exchange.com/covers/index.php

Thanks in advance,

1. Latest version of vB is 3.5.1
2. Maybe You did not chose to use vB's style in admin section:

vB3 INTEGRATION
Do you want to enable the vB3 Integration which uses your vB3 headers, footers and styles? = YES

[Chuck S]

Exactly mtha

Looks like he has not turned on any of the vb3 integration under edit integration and your forum options USE FORUM STYLE is set to no not yes.

I had turned it on, but when I do it uses no template at all. I have it turned on now and look at what it does. Before I had upgraded, it worked fine. BTW, I am a programmer with over 25 years exp. so I have tried many things already, that is why I am asking for your help...

[Chuck S]

If I go here though you do not have vb3 integration turned on in edit integration in admin

Your loading a default photopost

I would be glad to help. You can PM me your admin login and I can show ya how to set it up

[HobbyTalk]

I show your gallery is using http://artists-exchange.com/covers/s...ts/default.css for the style sheets but your forum is using http://artists-exchange.com/vbportal_demo.css so it is not pulling the correct style sheet.

You have two places to setup the integration on PP. Make sure both Edit Integration and Forum Settings in the PP AdminCP is set correctly.

[Chuck S]

Yep the vb3 integration is turned off in his edit integration settings.

He has correctly set use forum style to yes which is why there is a white page with no style but has not turned on the vb3 integration. Once VB3 integration settings are set and turned on in edit integration things will be fine.

Most appreciative....

Now - does anyone know how to add a "Download Photo" link when you click on a photo?

[Chuck S]

Why not just select in showphoto options UBBCODE to yes

[mclare]

Well because I deal with people that do a lot of downloads of photos in a session and it is time consuming to do that. I just need a link that when they are looking at the Med image, there is a link that would say "Download Photo" and they could just click it and it would bring up the download queue.

I tried it with this third party software, but it was unreliable. I need a good reliable download photo link.

Anyone that can solve this will get membership into my board of course.

[Chuck S]

maybe something like this code in bold added to the showphoto.tmpl page above the code noted here

Here is what I did, but the link does not show up... :


echo<<<PPPRINT
<tr>
<td class="{$Style['tddetails']}" align="left" valign="top">
Download Link
</td>
<td class="{$Style['tddetails']}" align="left" valign="top">
<a href="{$imgurl}">Download this file</a>
</td>
</tr>
PPPRINT;

if ( $Globals['showubb'] == "yes" && $imgurl != "" ) {
echo<<<PPPRINT
<tr>
<td class="{$Style['tddetails']}" colspan="2" align="left" valign="top">
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
function copy_to_clipboard()
{
window.clipboardData.setData("Text", "{$showcode}");
};
//-->
</script>
<span class="{$Style['small']}"><b>{$Globals['pp_lang']['ubbcode']}:</b> <input type="text" name="ubb" value="$showcode" size="80" onclick="this.focus();this.select()"> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<script language="javascipt" type="text/javascript">
<!--
if((typeof clipboardData != 'undefined') && (clipboardData.setData) && (document.write)){
document.write('<input type="button" style="font-size:7pt;" value="{$Globals['pp_lang']['copyto']}" onclick="copy_to_clipboard()" />');
}
//-->
</script></span>
</td>
</tr>
PPPRINT;
}


Thanks for the fast reply..

BTW - That is a great avatar... Do you have a reef tank?

Okay, I forgot and put it in the wrong place and now put it in the vb2templates and now I get this error:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in /hsphere/local/home/mclare/artists-exchange.com/covers/templates/vb3enhanced/showphoto.tmpl on line 277

I did put in the opening and closing braces and now the code reads:


{
echo<<<PPPRINT
<tr>
<td class="{$Style['tddetails']}" align="left" valign="top">
Download Link
</td>
<td class="{$Style['tddetails']}" align="left" valign="top">
<a href="{$imgurl}">Download this file</a>
</td>
</tr>
PPPRINT;
}

if ( $Globals['showubb'] == "yes" && $imgurl != "" ) {
echo<<<PPPRINT
<tr>
<td class="{$Style['tddetails']}" colspan="2" align="left" valign="top">
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
function copy_to_clipboard()
{
window.clipboardData.setData("Text", "{$showcode}");
};
//-->
</script>
<span class="{$Style['small']}"><b>{$Globals['pp_lang']['ubbcode']}:</b> <input type="text" name="ubb" value="$showcode" size="80" onclick="this.focus();this.select()"> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<script language="javascipt" type="text/javascript">
<!--
if((typeof clipboardData != 'undefined') && (clipboardData.setData) && (document.write)){
document.write('<input type="button" style="font-size:7pt;" value="{$Globals['pp_lang']['copyto']}" onclick="copy_to_clipboard()" />');
}
//-->
</script></span>
</td>
</tr>
PPPRINT;
}

Thanks

Okay, I got it working and there are only 2 minor problems:

1. The link is the medium image and not the fullsized image.

2. The link does not open the "save as..." dialog box but instead display's that image so the user has to do the right click thing.

Should be easy...

Is there somewhere that all of the variables listed and how the program is laid out?

THANKS AGAIN! ! !

[Chuck S]

$imgurl changes depending on the size of the photo. Otherwise you will probally need to define a new variable if all you want is the large url

In showphoto.php make this?

Where would that go? I have tried several combination of things and still cannot get it to work. I would be willing to pay a fee to get this thing to work if anyone can get it to work.

I just need a link that a person can click on and it will pop up a dialog box and let you download the full sized image...

Thanks

[Chuck S]

Well I dont know about a download link to auto download probally need some java for that but the code I meantioned was to place in showphoto.php and then in showphoto.tmpl in the html you entered replace $imgurl with $downurl and thats gonna give you the large image every time

[mclare]

I did that and it did not work...
