cannot get photopost to use my vb3 standard layout
 

hello, I'm a new customer that just installed photopost for my vb3 site. photopost wont accept the operation to integrate styles with the standard vb3 template

i get this error

Warning: chdir(): No such file or directory (errno 2) in /home/thinktal/public_html/usergallery/header-inc.php on line 64

Warning: main(/global.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/thinktal/public_html/usergallery/header-inc.php on line 65

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required '/global.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/thinktal/public_html/usergallery/header-inc.php on line 65

I think the path to global is correct, so im pulling out hair at this point

link is www.thinktalk.com/usergallery

thanks
chris

On last step of install the wrong forum server path was entered edit your config-int.php file and in the $vbpath variable enter the proper forum server path.

one more issue
 

sorry, I am able to upload multimedia files just fine but i get no icon for them (just the little question mark indicating it cannot find the multimedia image)

how do i fix that?

thanks
chris

tried that
 

the url path is www.thinktalk.com/forum

have tried ./forum
/forum
../forum


what else?

You need to use server path not url

I can not tell you what your server path usually something like this

/var/www/html/forums

use your server path there in that variable

first problem fixed
 

sorry didn't know i needed the whole path. second problem still exists

is this the standard layout, seems sparse

http://thinktalk.com/usergallery/index.php

also how do i get the recent images area as a separate html to post on my site index page?

thanks
chris

In Admin => Edit Integration you need to turn on the 3 vb3 enhanced switches to load the forum header footer and stylesheet

sorry to bug you
 

when i turn them on now i get this

Warning: chdir(): No such file or directory (errno 2) in /home/thinktal/public_html/usergallery/header-inc.php on line 64

Warning: main(/home/thinktal/public_html/usergallery/includes/init.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/thinktal/public_html/forum/global.php on line 24

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required '/home/thinktal/public_html/usergallery/includes/init.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/thinktal/public_html/forum/global.php on line 24

As noted above you have inputed the wrong server path to your forum. I beleive you want it in config-int.php to read this

$vbpath="/home/thinktal/public_html/forum";

thanks for bearing with me, apparently i forgot how to edit code and listen at the same time.. all is good now except the image file for the multimedia uploads still ? icon.

thanks a million
chris

where did you place mov as an acceptible type in upload options? In images or multimedia?

Basically if an optional jpg for the multimedia is uploaded it will show that otherwise it should show the default multimedia thumb video.gif. Trying to understand why your code is trying to find a .mov thumb.

no multimedia image
 

i put the video .extentions in the acceptable image file types area because when the accpetable image file types only have image extentions, i am unable to upload video even though the mime types are listed under acceptable multimedia types. It seems that the extention has to be listed under files types or i get an error message that says "unsupported file type"

hope that makes sense

thanks a million for your help

there is your issue you can not do that. You need to put multimedia extentions in the allowable multimedia types. You can then in admin options select to allow multimedia uploads

thanks
 

all is well, thanks
