problem with VB and PP integration --

I am feeling pretty stupid --

-- my forum is here -- www.pbsmiles.com -- vBulletin Version 3.0.3


-- I read this below -- and have the following problems --

(A) - the files inc_features and inc_photopost.php are not in a "photopost" directory -- they're in "gallery" -- when i try to re-route them, and run them as php files, nothing comes up --

I paid for the PP $60 install, and I don't know HOW to make these files work -- though I found them -- I don't know if the databases are at the same location, though I think they are -- this is very frustrating --

-- then, problem 2 --

(B) these first two are not in my VB code --

To include the PhotoPost "features" box, add the variable $photopostfeature to your template:

$header
$navbar
$photopostfeature

What am I supposed to do here?

This is an awfully difficult install, considering I paid the "install" price --

eric


3) In your vB index.php file, you will need to add two lines under under these four:

// ######################### REQUIRE BACK-END ############################
require_once('./global.php');
require_once('./includes/functions_bigthree.php');
require_once('./includes/functions_forumlist.php');
include('./photopost/inc_features.php');
include('./photopost/inc_photopost.php');

vB TEMPLATE ADDITIONS
=====================

1) In your vB templates, select Forum Home Templates and edit the FORUMHOME template.

To include the PhotoPost "features" box, add the variable $photopostfeature to your template:

$header
$navbar
$photopostfeature

This places the feature at the top of the forum (as done on our site).

TYPE 1
------
1) Down lower, to add your gallery section, add the $photopostcats variable under your Main section:

<!-- /main -->
<br />
$photopostcats
<br />

Your using vb 3.03 so this requires hacking of files in vb which we would not do on an install unless asked for liability reasons edited some other products files.

This is pretty simple here. Your issue is simple your includes should be this as you just have the wrong path

Code:
Content visible to verified customers only.
The second thing is you never edited the template the instructions state to edit. Your FORUMHOME template in vb is the one to edit and I placed the code in that for you.

I can not do your index file for ya as your ftp info does not work

I told you I already placed the template thing in there for ya

The script is only designed to show category photos not members gallery photos which is why the only one that shows is the test I uploaded

It is in your vb templates in your vb styles admin and it has already been edited as I noted.

You might want to visit your vbulletin support forum for assistance but basically you go to vbulletin admin => Styles Admin => Edit Templates
