Gallery 1.4.2 and Invision 1.3 - making progress, BUT . . .

I'm attempting to integrate invisionboard 1.3 and gallery 1.4.2 using the gallery imbed at http://mods.ibplanet.com/db/?mod=354
It was designed for gallery 1.3.1 and IBF 1.1, and to use API 3.0b, (I'm using API 4.0 http://mods.ibplanet.com/db/?mod=417)

I've run into several problems others have, and I have overcome some with the help of a friend, but we've got more we can't figure out. First is the error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: settableprefix() in /blah/blah/blah/gallery/init.php on line 307

which required changing this:
-----
$gallery->database{$INFO['sql_database']}->setTablePrefix($INFO['sql_tbl_prefix']);
-----
to this
-----
$gallery->database{$INFO['sql_database']}->$INFO['sql_tbl_prefix'];
------
that problem fixed.

Then we got another error:
------
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class info in /blah/blah/blah/forums/main.php
-------
which is an api 4.0 file. It appears they used the same class name in API 4.0 as this hack use (info), so we renamed the info class to API_info in the main.php file.

So on to the next error:
-------
Parse error: parse error in /blah/blah blah/member_gallery/html_wrap/wrapper.header.default on line 12
-------

So we change:
------
if(isset($GALLERY_EMBEDDED_INSIDE)) {

case "invisionboard":
-----
to
-------
if(isset($GALLERY_EMBEDDED_INSIDE) && $GALLERY_EMBEDDED_INSIDE == "invisionboard
") {
-------
Now THAT problem was fixed.

Next problem:
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class func in /blah/blah/blah/forums/sources/functions.php on line 29

Looked at line 29, its part of the way invisionboard works so it doesn't look to be the problem. So I looked in init.php, and find:
------
require_once($root_path."sources/functions.php");

$std = new FUNC;
$print = new display();
$sess = new session();
-------
I believe this is where the problem lay, but I don't know what to change.

I believe we're close but I don't know what to do next.

Would it be that hard to modify the existing phpBB User.php and UserDB.php files to work for IPB? Or is there more to do?

I will pay money to get this mod completed! I am VERY close to dumping Gallery for the gallery software that Invision Power has that's already integrated into IPB. I am offering $50US via paypal to whomever gets this to work with IVP 1.3 and Gallery 1.4.3.

Hi everyone,
i'm working on this mod to make it work w/ the latest release of IB
I've already succeed in overcoming all error returned by PHP and now i'm working on the graphic integration because it looks very ugly now.

I'll hope i can publish a release of my mod within the next 2/3 days.

Ouranos

This is great! We gave up on integrating gallery, but I still would prefer it. I can't wait until this is done!

Hi,
the skin integration is finished
and i've juste overcame a small problem with users permissions.
I'm going to make this make easy to install and release it soon

Ouranos

Hi everyone,
you can download my mod here : http://ouranos.intranet-bosser.net/files/ibf-gallery_v1.1.zip

Mirror : http://www.cyberatom.com/tmp/ibf-gallery_v1.1.zip

It works perfectly with easyphp but I encounter a little problem with session
on my website.

Tell me if you have any problems and I will upgrade this mod.

If you want to make donation (rpr :wink my paypal account is

.

Thx.

If the server is down retry later because i've got a dns problem

Or I'll try when the DNS is working.

Ouranos,
if you get this, and don't mind mailing it to me, I'll put it online and post a link until your site is working.

i've added a mirror site ;)

Okay, I don't know what the problem is with that last post, I tried editing a post and it made a new one. Okay..
But, the gallery install worked!

A few minor problems I ran into though...
first, anyone who attempted the earlier version of the hack will get an error when running the db_hack.php file. I just removed the g_gallery_moderate and g_gallery_createalbum fields because I didn't know if they were the same as the old hack.

Next problem... in the first modification of the init.php, right after the hack prevention, its missing the <?php ?> around it. Took me more time than I'd like to admit to figure out why it was putting the code as text at the top of the gallery.

I think thats it. It seems to be working well - Although I need to play some more. But I wanted to report my findings asap.

It's the same file as the old hack, I've only copied it

Oops sorry

I think you didn't install correctly ibf

I followed your directions and hit the exact same 'session' problem you are having on your site. I took a peek at it and it is a trivial fix. Go look in init.php, you have an extra blank line is my guess.

Now, just need to get skin support going. ;)

Great mod, thanks much for it!

-Robert

I will install it ASAP and let you know how it goes. I assume you would help fix any issues that may arise from 1.4.3 Final being released?

And if it does what I need, I will be sending you the money.

Tom

Thanks for your work on this, most appreciate.

No the server is working
but if you want you can try the mirror

I have this all running on my IBP 1.3.1final fine.

http://www.aussiehomebrewer.com/forum/gallery/index.php

Works a charm - no issues here.

Next development def has to be further skinning support - I had to hack mine up a bit to get it to work but on a vanilla IPB install it should work fine 'out of the box'

Just follow the readme instructions ;)

I'll develop a skin integration asap but i've a lot of exam this month;

Ouranos

Yes I would like to see that too

I've installed this Mod into my Gallery and Invision Power Board and its working. There are still some final skin issues which I'm working through. I had thought it was more of a integration similar to how Coppermine is integrated into IPB, however it is not.

This Mod gives the user the ability to share the database of the message board with the Gallery, essentially not using it at all. Its fairly nice and would be better if there are some Control Panel fixes into the IPB part, I might see about doing that myself. Overall though its a great mod and saves a lot of time and registration since they only need to be registered on the message board itself.

It is easy to install and modify your Invision Board to integrate the Gallery. There are two main issues. There isn't a real support for the skins of the Gallery, that is all strictly gallery modifications.

Its best if you don't have an existing Gallery. It will work with an existing gallery but you'll encounter an issue. If you have users who have albums in Gallery but not registered on message board they won't be able to get access to their galleries until they have registered on the IPB. If you have pre-existing albums as well since the member database isn't associated with the members you'll have to reset permissions for each album giving the user ownership of their albums again.

Other than that its not that bad. Give me a few days to go through the install file, add in the changes that I had to to get things to work properly and I'll rezip it back up for download with some better instructions.

    Embedding Gallery into Invision Power Board 1.3.1
    Author: Shadow Wolf / Ouranos / copland 007 / windrider
    Version: 1.2
    Updated: 07/08/2004
    Website: http://www.protoculturex.com/index.php?pid=9

    This hack should allow you to get Gallery v1.4.3 to use the Invision
    Boards Members Database information.  Still could use some work 
    (like Skin Support) and probably other AdminCP functionality.  But
    hopefully this will be enough to get you started with having a 
    Photo Album for your Invision Board site.

    Requires: 
        InvisionBoard 1.3.1 (http://www.invisionboard.com)
        Gallery v1.4.3-RC2 (http://gallery.menalto.com)

    Credits:
        - Original code written by copland007.
        - Code changed by windrider. (mjb@braindead.net)
            -- Added minimal AdminCP support.
            -- Removed hardcoded Groups from User.php/UserDB.php
               Now the group access is controled from AdminCP.
            -- Removed other hardcoded strings.
	- Code modified by Ouranos (ouranos@cyberatom.com)
            -- Added compatibility with the latest IPB version.
            -- Don't need API.
        - Code changed by Shadow Wolf
            -- Corrected errors in install.txt. 
            -- Tested with v1.4.3-RC2.

    Things to still do:
        Add skin support. 
*/

First create a "gallery" directory in your forums root and install a standalone Gallery using their install process into this directory.
Once installed you can then begin to hack away.

******************************

Upload db_hack.php into forums root. (where your conf_global.php file exists)
Load the db_hack.php file in your web browser.
Once hack is done delete the db_hack.php file.

******************************


Make an "invisionboard" directory under <gallery dir>/classes/
Upload the supplied User.php and UserDB.php files into <gallery dir>/classes/invisionboard/

******************************


Upload all files supplied in html_wrap into <gallery dir>/html_wrap/
These files (especially 'wrapper.header') will require a bit 'extra' modification to make it match your site
until I or someone can write a good Skin integration.
But they are well adapted to the default skin.

Upload all the file changes if you haven't already.

Go into AdminCP and modify the groups you want to have access to Gallery for creating albums and/or moderation access.  SuperMods and Admins already have Moderation access to the Gallery.  But also added a specific function for Gallery moderation if you need/want it.

******************************

Use the 'loggedin' permission, not 'everyone'.

'Everyone' is exactly what it says...

May I know if any of you guys have gallery working in your IPB 2.0?

Thanks for your attention.. do advice

I am still having a problem where guests are able to upload pictures in one album. Does anyone else have an idea for this issue?

Thanks in advance

anybody??? This is quite odd and I would really like to get this to work
