Need a hand with how to set a few things up

Hi Chuck, how do I get the recent 10 comments to display in the gallery of my vBulletin forum. I have made all the settings the same as photopost on my phpbb forum.

Also, when you go to the photos in a category, how do you view the next image and previous image.

You must be talking about some hack you did for phpbb as there is no latest comment block that shows on a forum.

Next previous links are shown when viewing a photo. When you view a category of thumbnails there are page links to view the various pages of photos in a category

I don't think I was real clear in my first question.

How do I set up my gallery that is linked to my vbulletin to show members comments.

It is showing in my gallery linked to my phpbb forum

Photopost has never had a block that shows members comments from photos in any forum that we support which is why I keep thinking your talking about some type of hack. Comments in photopost show two places both of which are inside the gallery application not the forum.

1. under the actual photo they are placed on

2. In the little recent comments block that shows in the index of your gallery if it is turned on in sidebar options.

I didn't ask how do I get recent comments on photos to display on my forum.

I asked how do I get them to display in my gallery that is linked with my vBulletin forum.

The recent comments are showing on my gallery linked to my phpbb forum

The confusing part for me just for future reference is all the forum talk here. I mean you kept saying how can I get members comments to show like I do in my phpbb forum which is what I was zeroing in on.

You can under your Admin panel of the gallery in the sidebar settings turn on your undercats pal and you should see the recent comments block then.

I finally found your site info and took a look your okay now.

Chuck, everything is a mess now on the gallery, there are photos scattered everywhere.

Exhibition Poultry Group Gallery - - Exhibition Poultry Group Gallery

Why is the calendar, most recent, statistics, highest rated and top posters all at the bottom now when they are already on the sidebar.

If its not possible to have the comments displayed at the bottom without the the info I mentioned I would rather not have it at all. It makes my gallery looked too cluttered.

I have added an attachment on what I would like displayed.

Here is a screenshot of the photos that are scrambled. I have recent comments set to 4

Now, i will try and explain this again with out being to confusing.

Here is the link to the gallery linked to my phpbb forum Exhibition Poultry Group Gallery - Exhibition Poultry Gallery

I would like the gallery linked to my vbulletin forum to look the same

I would like it set up exactly like my phpbb gallery if thats at all possible.

Pretty much like that?

Aussie · October 2nd, 2011, 04:26 PM

That looks better. Now, down near the comments there is an extra ' by '

Will add a screenshot

Aussie · October 2nd, 2011, 04:28 PM

Can the Top Posters be added to the sidebar

Chuck S · October 2nd, 2011, 05:20 PM

Like that

Thanks Chuck, did you see the screenshot in my last post about the extra ' by ' in the recent comments

Chuck S · October 2nd, 2011, 09:07 PM

yeah I will see if I see anything

Aussie · October 10th, 2011, 02:54 AM

chuck, have you had a chance to look at why the extra by is showing up in the comments.

Chuck S · October 10th, 2011, 07:32 AM

still something we are looking into.

Aussie · October 10th, 2011, 07:06 PM

Ok, it's weird how it has appeared like that

Chuck S · October 11th, 2011, 07:25 AM

Not a problem we are looking at it. Basically its showing a ghost comment.

Aussie · October 26th, 2011, 02:51 PM

Hi Chuck, I'm just checking in to see if you have found out why it is showing what you called ' a ghost comment '. Have you heard of other photopost users having this problem.
