Gallery RSS

DirtRider · May 14th, 2011, 08:48 AM

Before I purchase PhotoPost I had a pre sales question and asked the following. I needed to have some way that it would post in a forum area when I new upload was made so my members could have some type of notification that we have new images in our gallery.

I was told it does not really do this but I could use the RSS feed from the gallery and make up a feed from vBulleting feeding into a forum area as a normal RRS feed.

Now that I come to doing this I cannot see any RRS feed being generated from PhotoPost. I have looked in the normal place of the following browsers for the feed icon and found nothing.

Fireox 4
Google Chrome 11.0.696.68
Opera 11.10
IE 9

So where do I find said RSS feed ?

Your RSS feed would be in the browser window address bar of most browsers. It is the same script name as vbulletin just different directory.

Your not using Pro your using vbGallery. I would have to ask if that has RSS.

Well if I look at the email I got when I purchased it it tells me?

PhotoPost PHP Pro license and download
Thank you for purchasing a PhotoPost PHP Pro license. Your license grants you permission to run one instance of PhotoPost PHP Pro on one domain and one web server for an unlimited period of time.

So what is going on then that I only have vbGallery and not what I purchased?

You can use vbGallery or Pro just not both. I believe your install thing if I remember said something about trying to get vb4 album content into the gallery. That plus the very custom style your using when we installed your gallery vbGallery fit best for what you wanted to do. There are no supported scripts to get album content into our galleries. vbgallery just happened to have a test script for users to try.

Now if you want I can gladly delete your vbGallery and install Pro but the css integration is not as tight as vbGallery and there would be no way to import vb4 album content into your gallery so your choice. We run Pro here on our site so you can compare the features etc. You will get more features with Pro but there are pros and cons for either product. vbGallery supports the best look and feel with vbulletin.

Well I feel we really have no choice but for you to install the Pro as we need the RSS and the mass upload in zip for members. I will sort out the members Photo at a later stage so not to worry about these at all. I have made the current version inactive in the Installed Products as you know the turning it off also does not work the way it is (members see a corrupted page when selecting gallery)

DirtRider · May 15th, 2011, 10:14 PM

Nope it is the same as last time, remember I had to change it from what I first sent you as it did not work and the second one it did. I will PM you the info again

Chuck S · May 16th, 2011, 08:23 AM
