Problem with img/ubb code not showing(FIXED)

[Ted S]

I've enabled UBB code (Show UBBCode on Photo page set to "yes") yet the box does not display. Playing with the templates it appears that the variable $imgurl is null and has no data. What settings do I need to change to resolve this?

Thanks.

[Ted S]

Any ideas?

[Chuck S]

Well I can not explain why your $imgurl variable would be empty as it makes no sense since thats what we use to display the photo but I have seen this on a couple systems. There is a little edit one can make. I think most users I have encountered with this are on Vbulletin and I think they have a hack installed that must intefere with the variable.

In showphoto.php find this

Content visible to verified customers only.

then in showphoto.tmpl

if ( $Globals['showubb'] == "yes" && $imgurl != "" ) {

change to this

if ( $Globals['showubb'] == "yes" ) {

[Ted S]

That did the trick, thanks.

Actually, users are still reporting issues:

I've tried again to insert a photo from my gallery and it's a no go.

I tried the new little code box at the bottom of the gallery page and the world link icon thingie.

Extremely frustrating!

I've been having the same problem. The url from the page gets copied rather than the url for the particular picture. As alcina said, very frustrating!

How is an img tag not be right. You have an example. I show no issue with this here is a tag I get. Your not going to be able to see it since I have the data thing locked down but the url is indeed right

Chuck,

Here's how...

example url from ubb code

http://www.scubaboard.com/gallery/da...ue_springs.jpg

actual url (view source from the photo display page):
http://www.scubaboard.com/gallery/wa...e=15969&size=1

Mind you water marks are turned off

[ehm]

I'm having the same problem here, with UBB 6.5.1.1 and PhotoPost 5.13
At the begining I had no link, even do I put YES on the option (like Ted S)
Then I use Omegatron fix and now I have the display link, but it's not doing any good.
This is the link:

When I paste it on UBB, the photo does not came up.

Are you protecting your data directory

this doesnt seem to exist on your server although I am sure it does

remember image protection and image display arent mutually exclusive

[Ted S]

That was it... I didn't even realize there was a photo protection option in the configuration area.

Thanks

Actually we still have a problem...

If the image being viewed is a medium image it will not work.

See http://www.scubaboard.com/gallery/sh...00/ppuser/8823 which tries to show http://www.scubaboard.com/gallery/da.../occytext1.jpg but should show http://www.scubaboard.com/gallery/da.../occytext1.jpg

[Chuck S]

why should it not show it. It is coded to show the medium
Sorry this feature always shows the medium image and it is not coded to show a fullsize image. if thats what your after alter your code in showphoto.

[Ted S]

It should show a path that works, it isn't. If the image has no medium version, the link works fine. If the image has a medium version, the link to that image is wrong. The problem is that the code isn't displaying the appropriate link for images, no changes have been made to the source php files.

[Chuck S]

try linking them to either the thumbnail or large

$ubburl = "{$Globals['datadir']}/$storecat/$bigimage";
$showcode = "

";
