Is anyone using VBdrupal and VBgallery together

And if so, have you gotten the Drupal Blocks to show on the VBgallery side?

I use this piece of code in my forums nav template, its placed right at the bottom:

<if condition="THIS_SCRIPT == 'drupal'">
<else />
<table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="center">
<tr>
<td valign="top" width="202px">
$drupal_blocks[left]
</td>
<td width="10px"></td>
<td valign="top">

<else />
</if>

As you can see it pulls in $drupal_blocks[left]

When you look at the forums on my site it works great.

When you go to VBgallery

http://www.coastsidefishingclub.com/forum2/gallery

The left hand table loads, but the important parts are missing:

<if condition="THIS_SCRIPT == 'drupal'">
<else />

$drupal_blocks[left]

Seems like it wants to work.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I could do here to make this work?

Thanks

I have never tried it.

Was there a plug-in / product to integrate Drupal ?
How was it integrated with vBulletin? (php wise)

I do not know what good you are getting out of Drupal, but under high loads I have fear it will kill your server. There may be a config problem to cause those errors.

EX:
ForumHome: Queries Executed 127
forumdisplay: # Queries Executed 127

Every page has over 100 Queries per page load.

1 user looks at 1 page = 100 Queries to your SQL server
300 user online looks at 1 page = 30,000 Queries to your SQL server

Normally if the content is great people can look at 100's or 1000's of pages.

------------------------------------
PS: - an idea hit me on the query count

I have seen that before in vBulletin. in the /includes/config.php files cache was turned on for the datastore and the cache file the datastore uses is chmod 644 vs. 777 so all the cached queries are no longer cached. Once I changed the permissions on the datastore php file all was wonderful.

Yea the queries do worry me a bit as well.

VBdrupal is installed at a product - it sits in the mange products area.

I like drupal for the content managment side of things, but I must have VBgallery working.

Shoot me some AdminCP access in a PM, I'll take a look.
