Suddenly thumbnails would not appear yet pictures were all still appearing behind...

[brianresler]

I know what you are saying

http://servicelance.com/photopost

I've uploaded identical waterfowl category images to that "test" install

so I'm pretty sure everything is where is is supposed to be.

see pm

[brianresler]

and this is a install that does not depend on VB3 DB for registration etc, etc.

I'm pretty sure i will again see blank screens when attempting the VB3 integration

that seems to be where my problem came from initially

[Chuck S]

I install these all day long and there are no problems with vb3 installs provided its installed right

Now as far as uploading with the information you give me you have not set permissions correctly

Unable to move file [/tmp/phpfxp0UM] [/home/.sites/123/site64/web/forum/gallery/uploads/1/testfile.jpg]

[brianresler]

permission on upload directory were 755 (for whatever reason)

but internal "1" was set to 777

all photos are now loaded.

where are difinitie info on integration with vb3?

[Chuck S]

Integration with VB3 on install is pretty easy with the new install program. the questions are pretty specific and explained what everything means.

If you continually have issues I would suggest you purchase an installation

[brianresler]

my questions was "where are definitive integration instructions" I have it done 90% but gallery is not completely picking up styling of forums

actually if you set up photopost standalone

and assign new admin name and pass.

then switch to VB3 registration etc, etc.

photopost does not recognize admin user or password from vb3

"Invalid login. Please check your username and password, or register."

When logged in as admin in vb3 it does not recognize admin status to photopost even though they look like they share the theme so there is no way to get into photopost admin (no visible link).

And then using the original userid and pass given to standalone photopost to log in no longer works when pp is told to use vb3 reg info

[Chuck S]

In your admin options Forum Settings do you have use forum stylesheets set to YES

The definative instructions happen when you install each setting specifically states what it does as I stated.

Here is the thread that explains the new integration options

4.8.5 vB3 Enhanced Integration Instructions

[Chuck S]

Brian there is way more to set up if you switch forums after the fact then just flip a switch and say vb3

You need to have pointed to the proper mysql database

You need to have entered the proper cookie settings

You need to have entered the correct VB license number

[brianresler]

I did all that, regarding you last post this was discussed earlier in this 3 page forum post.

// We need to know the server paths to both your vB installation and your PhotoPost installation
$vbpath = "/home/.sites/123/site64/web/forum/";
$pppath = "/home/.sites/123/site64/web/forum/gallery/";

// We need the URL path to your PhotoPost and vb installation
$url_path = "http://www.ongaros.com/forum/gallery/";
$vb_urlpath = "http://www.ongaros.com/forum/";

// The URL of your photo dir where your images are stored (with / at end)
$data_dir = "http://www.ongaros.com/forum/gallery/data/";

// If your PhotoPost tables have a prefix, put it here
// Example:
// = "pp_";
$pp_db_prefix = "pp";

// If you use the mobile phone integration, set this variable to the CatID for the gallery
define( MOBILE_CAT, -1 );

//------------------------------------- vB3 -----------------------------------------//
// VB3_INTEGRATION is for using vB3 headers/footers and styles
// VB3_ENHANCEDINT is for Enhanced vB3 Integration (using vB3 elements in PhotoPost)
// requires that VB3_INTEGRATION also be set to 'on'
// VB3_COMMWYSIWYG is for turning on the WYSIWYG interface on the Post A Comment page
// if you set this to 'off' then only the standard input box will appear
//
// Set to 'on' to enable specific integrations
define(VB3_INTEGRATION, 'on');
define(VB3_ENHANCEDINT, 'on');
define(VB3_COMMWYSIWYG, 'on');

still does not pickup the styles for the main body o the page.

Had to reset my PP password to regaing entry.
VB does not recognize this password

[Chuck S]

You need to read my last two posts and set things accordingly

[brianresler]

Ok I have it all working except for final complete STYLE integration

my issue thus far was a problem permission a 755 instead or 777

and an uppercase/lowercase error in one field which renders the fatal white screen problem through out photopost

I stated the answer above.


DID YOU MISS THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[brianresler]

no I got it.

if you look http://www.ongaros.com/forum/gallery/

the left side bar per PP settings is ON to display in a left column

there is a blank space there and the content is pushed off to the right

when the left column is switched off content moves back to left

but overall styling of forums does not filter down to gallery page

[Chuck S]

No you have not got it !!

Admin-->Forum Settings

Use Integrated forum stylesheets?
If you use a forum like vB3 or Threads and want to use the intergated stylesheet option, choose Yes

SET THIS TO YES


As far as the sidebar of course if you turn it on its going to come on. You have all the sidebar pals turned off so of course you have a blank nothing.

[brianresler]

IT IS SET TO YES has been for a couple of hours

Ok did not know about the PAL stuff. Just followed some info on the link for integration and EXPECT it to look like photopostdev.com with pretty images in side bar. Not just some stat info

There are two settings for "Left" on the Sidebar admin screen for sidebar display in the pull down both are same.

[Chuck S]

There is no way it is set to yes

Your using the photopost styles in your source

<td class="menubar" width="100%" colspan="2">
<table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td class="menubarnb" width="50%" align="left" valign="middle">

PM me an admin login

[brianresler]

pm sent

[Chuck S]

Your user registration is set to photopost how would you expect it to pull the vb style?

[brianresler]

Changed that a few times already it does not stick
