Photopost and vbulletin would be installed on the same domain

simply go to your gallery directory from your forum like so

http://www.mydomain.com/gallery/install.php

You have install instructions already so I assume you have set permissions and done all that

You simply put your photopost database on the config screen where asked and put vb database info in the user database portion. You run through the install and select external integration make sure vb3 is the dropdown highlighted and answer all questions correctly on step 4 meaning the correct table prefix of vb if there is any and the cookie prefix which is most likely bb

Now on the last step of install you make sure the server path urls are correct to forum and gallery and you can turn on the 3 advanced integration swithes for vb3

Thats all there is to it your done with install.

I dont really know what you mean by domain off.

ok here is the link to the site

Main Index - My Photo Gallery

i have installed vbullettin and photopost but i dont see that it has intergrated and same problem as before if i click on register,faq,members list it comes up and says error 404 not found

Chuck S · July 3rd, 2008, 08:54 AM

Where is your photopost? You have given us a link to the forum not photopost.

Your problem is most likely you are inputting an incorrect url for photopost on install but of course I would actually need to see your site for this

Chuck S · July 3rd, 2008, 08:55 AM

We do offer installation service for those that need it also available on our online store.

spirittina · July 3rd, 2008, 09:16 AM

cheers

thanks
tina

spirittina · July 3rd, 2008, 01:37 PM

ok one sec i am going to give something a try

Chuck S · July 3rd, 2008, 10:37 PM

well again Tina that would have seemed to be a link to your forum not photopost.

Remember your vbulletin is here

http://www.digitaldownunder.com/index.php

You said your gallery was suppose to be there

http://www.digitaldownunder.com/gallery/index.php

Just remember to use the proper urls on install

Your site once again does not show so I am not sure what your doing there to vb and photopost

spirittina · July 4th, 2008, 01:33 AM

i had another go from scratch......no good

this link will work,and i won't touch it lol

Main Index - My Photo Gallery

so could you please look at it
thanks
tina

Main Index - My Photo Gallery

what do you mean no go?

I only see a few minor issues basically from you entering either relative paths or incorrect paths

Now example you have the proper forum server path as your loading the vb header? However when asked on install you entered your forum url as this?

http://digitaldownunder.com/DDU Forum

That is obviously incorrect so that is issue 1

Issue 2 is your header image from the forum is a relative link no big deal easily corrected

Now if you tell us where the forum is we can tell you how to correct these two issues

Chuck S · July 4th, 2008, 01:58 PM

Each of these applications need to be installed in different directories like so

http://digitaldownunder.com/forum/index.php

http://digitaldownunder.com/gallery/index.php

Only thing I see when trying to view things is you installing them overtop of one another etc.

spirittina · July 4th, 2008, 06:55 PM

hey chuck

thank you so much chuck i see what is happening here now

when i first install vbulletin to bring up the install page it should look like this right

http://www.digitaldownunder.com/foru...ll/install.php

thats if i renamed the vbulletin folder to forums

but there is the problem when i enter that it says error page can not be found
and it is the same when i install photopost.

so what i did was just install it as

PhotoPost Install Script for photopost
http://www.digitaldownunder.com/install/install.php for vbulletin

so if i cant get the install page to come up with the right directory what do i do?

is that the problem?????????

Chuck S · July 4th, 2008, 09:52 PM

well the urls your giving me all seem to be bogus because the script does not exist so everytime i go to your site nothing exists.

http://www.digitaldownunder.com/install/install.php

Second look at the url your trying to install vbulletin on top of Photopost?

Thats why everyone here is confused we dont really know what your doing. As stated before if you install the programs into two separate directories the urls would look like this

http://www.digitaldownunder.com/gallery/install.php

http://www.digitaldownunder.com/foru...ll/install.php

See how the install scripts run from the respective directories and the programs are in their proper places. Is this some hosting server or is this some machine you are configuring? I would suggest installing the programs as I note.

spirittina · July 4th, 2008, 11:49 PM

hey chuck

as for these links that i posted i typed in something totaly different and they have come up as this i dont understand why

yes i have a web host which is 1&1

you guys are confused as well as i am lol

one day i will get it up and running i just dont understand.

i upload all my vbulletin files to /forums and photopost to /gallery how is that overwriting the files

spirittina · July 4th, 2008, 11:51 PM

i am starting a fresh install wether or not that makes a difference

spirittina · July 5th, 2008, 06:06 AM

ok i have succesfully installed both vbulletin and photopost yayyyyyyy!!!!!!!

but i have another problem it seems like i have to log twice once for the gallery and then for the forum??????

this is the link to the photopost gallery
Main Index - DigitalDownUnder

it seems also that only admins have the upload photos option and when you press on it it says Sorry, you don't have permission to upload photos.

i am not sure if it has intergrated properly

and if it has how do i navigate between the forums and gallery

thanks
tina

spirittina · July 5th, 2008, 07:11 AM

ok i have figured out the upload images scenario lol that is all good

when i am in the gallery and i press on the usercp option it takes me to the forum but then i cant get back to the gallery so i am unable to navigate from the gallery to the forum lol

i thought maybe this is a cookie problem or even a paths problem but i don't know

oh the other thing is i uploaded a image and it does not create a thumbnail i know when you do the install it asks for something to do with that but i didn't do anything so what can i do for that

and how do i create the navigation buttons and is there any themes i can use other than the default where do i get them from lol

thanks
Tina

Chuck S · July 5th, 2008, 08:08 AM

See what happens when you install both applications in their own directories like I explained.

Cookies and Login Problems!!

Yes if your login is not recognized it is cookie issues. Try setting your cookies as noted here. Make sure also in your config settings in admin you have the proper vbulletin license number set where asked. This is license number should be at the top of any vb file not the customer number of vb.

spirittina · July 5th, 2008, 08:21 AM

yeah i know hehehehe

ok i have set the cookies to what they are supposed to be but still when i click on the usercp it takes me to the forum and i cant get back to the photo gallery cause i dont have any buttons to get back there lol

like this site see how they have home and picture album how do i create those
