Linking of gallery images in vb

Hi,

I`m new to this forum and photoPost and today I managed to install PP, which went well. Now I`m testing how my forum members can easily include images from the galery into their postings. Is there some tutorial for it?

It would be great if the insert-image button in the vB editor would feature some kind of categorized gallery-thumbnail view. Could someone give me a hint?

Thank you - all the best,
Sacha

You can elect to show the ubbcode in Admin => Show Photo Options and when viewing an image there will be a ubbcode box the user can use to click and copy and paste the image when doing a post.

thank you, that`s a little improvement but neither comfortable nor suitable for low-tech users.

Could you program something better? E. g. a list of image titles from the current users personal galery? Or a browsable thumbnail pop-up? Please make some suggestions and add prices to them.

Ciao,
Sacha

it seems that the ubbcode shows up only for the medium-sized image. This is too large for a posting in the forum. It would be better if the ubbcode for the little preview image could be generated (including a link to the medium sized image in the gallery!).

There should also be a possibility to upload images within the vB image dialogue when you post a new message. Well at least I think that would make sense. I hope I don`t appear too demanding, I`m just writing down what I think could be improved and hope it`s useful feedback for you.

Ciao,
Sacha

You may modify the code to your liking but the features themselves in the product are as they are shown. We do have a modifications forum should you wish to interact with users on code mod questions which fall outside product support.

I changed showphoto.php a little bit so that the ubbcode shows the image-code for the thumbnail including the link to the page with the medium-sized image. My users can copy the link and include those into their posts. Still far from being a good solution but it makes things a bit easier.

This is how I quick-hacked it:

find
Code:
Content visible to verified customers only.
and insert the following lines below it:
Code:
Content visible to verified customers only.
then change the line below the two inserted lines to this:
Code:
Content visible to verified customers only.
Example:
http://www.wunderkessel.de/galerie/s...to.php?photo=5

Result when inserted in a post:
Code:
Content visible to verified customers only.


Hope this helps someone,
Sacha

I tried this in my showphoto.php but it did not work.

I don't even see an option in Show Photo Options for ubbcode. I see where I can turn on Direct Link and have done so, but it the above code does not work like yours does.

Thanks very much Sinucello! I've been looking for an easier way members can paste pic links into posts at the forum. Will try this out soon.

What would be even better is if the showphoto link shown was relative to the mode that the pic was being viewed.

Group by Member: photo=1837&cat=678&ppuser=123

Member Gallery: photo=1837&cat=500&ppuser=123

Member's Album: photo=278&cat=3013

In our artists gallery, they don't like when pics lead on to others pics.

... so I guess we will still need to do some manually editing.

Thanks anyway for providing at least an easier way they can link any pic from the gallery to the forum.

Mark
