vB Integration Issues

[Darwin]

Hello

I`ve two Problems when turning on "Do you want to enable the vB3 or vB4 Integration which uses your vB3 or vB4 headers, footers and styles?".
No other Changes are made, just this Point turned On/Off.

• When I want to integrate with a vB3.6.8 the Lightbox in Photopost is not working.
  All Pictures are shown in self Window in Original Size. With integration turned "Off" Lightbox works fine.

• When integration turned "On" in a Test-Installation with vB4.1.5 the Style is a mess. Especially the Navbar is not showing correct.
  Maybe a CSS Problem ? Please see attached Screenshots.
  The Test-Installation is a 100% Copy of my existing site with vB updated from 3.8.6. to 4.1.5. With Integration turned "Off" everything is working fine.

Thanks for Help and Hints.
Michael

well are you using the current code? I use PhotoPost with vbulletin and lightbox works fine and style as well.

Maybe you have some lightbox mod installed in vb that might be conflicting?

Hello Chuck

No, I have no vB-Addon installed which has anything to do with Lightbox. Just the normal Lightbox which is already Part of vB3.8.6.

Try turning off the lightbox in vb and see if things work?

For vb4 you definately want to be using the latest code but try looking at your style links are the correct urls there? Is baseurl on vb set to yes?

[Darwin]

Yes, I`m using the latest 7.1 Code.
Where can I find the "style Links" to check for correct URLs ?
Baseurl is set to "yes".

Best Regards
Darwin

I was referring to your images you can place a url here if you want me to comment on your install as to what I can see.

[Darwin]

Thanks, I think I got it working so far.

Two little things:

The "Show last Photo"

Content visible to verified customers only.

Buttons are not in the same position. One is right, and one left align. How can I fix this ?

A thin Border, a "Box", around the single Categories would be looking nice. Any way to get this ?

Oh your using that old categall template which is non existent in PP8 so not much I can say. I can tell you how to move your arrow. In that template simply add the code in bold where noted around line 60

Content visible to verified customers only.

[Darwin]

If I modify categall.tmpl in AdminCP this Way I get an Error:
syntax error, unexpected '{', expecting ',' or ';' in ..../templates/vb4enhanced/categall.tmpl on line 80

Is there no Way to add somewhere a border="1" to get a Line around the single Categories ?

Would you suggest me to update to PP8 Beta at this time ? When will be a final Release ?

[Chuck S]

Maybe try editing the template directly via ftp?

Your free to modify anything you wish we just do not assist with code modifications and stuff like that.

I would suggest you install the beta sure its stable I run it on my site

Now couple things to consider. Read the upgrade instructions and perform your upgrade which is uploading all the files except install and the 2 config files and run upgrade.php

after you are done read the install doc as well there are some extra steps you want to do noted below

IMPORTANT - FOR VBULLETIN 4 ONLY. New plugins included in download.

1. Upload the contents of the additional.css in our stylesheets directory into your vbulletin style manager under edit templates the additional.css stylesheet in vb.

2. In your gallery directory set permissions on the file pppro_product.xml to 777

3. Go to your photopost admin panel and hit the option to generate vbulletin plugin xml. That file will download to your computer.

4. Go into your vbulletin admin panel and under plugins & products select the option to manage products. You can then use the add/import product option
and upload the xml file you downloaded to your computer called pppro_product.xml file. Once that is done your forum will show gallery content.

5. Thats it your done!!

Worked! I could ask why it didn`t work in AdminCP, but I don`t care...

OK Chuck, I did it on my own.
For other Users: I added in categall.tmpl the Red marked Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

This makes me a nice looking Border around the Categories.

As soon as I´ve done a complete Backup of my Site, I will Update to PP8 Beta.
If I want to decide if Gallery Content should be show on my Forum or not, can I simply activate/deactivate the PlugIn you described ?
The pppro_product.xml.

Thanks
Michael

You can disable certain plugins if you do not want to run that sure.
