Hi everyone, I was hoping you could help me out as I'm trying to get an idea on how your galleries are working on your sites.
If you wouldn't mind posting your sites below for me check out your galleries I'd really appreciate it!

Thanks to all who replied. Were testing in Dev to see if it'll work for our site, we have a custom wrap that we need to work with and it can be a bit of a pain.
We're still using v7.2, and I've been requesting an upgrade, did you find an differences in the PhotoGallery in newer versions or does it still function the same?

I find they are pretty much all the same with the exception ok in 7.4+ where you can grab the image location off the site top place it in post's in that site or other sites.
I personally edited out that as people were using it to host photo's on my site then displaying them on others sites stealing my bandwidth.

I personally edited out that as people were using it to host photo's on my site then displaying them on others sites stealing my bandwidth. Well, with some .htaccess magic you could do a couple of things as well... 1. Allow linking but define sites allowed to do so. 2. Redirect "unauthorized" linking to another file which will load in its place (feel free to get creative here). This is what i use: # Allow authorized sites to retrieve files. #
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
# Start UGN Specific Hosts #
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !65.19.133.34 [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !65.19.133.39 [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !undergroundnews.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !undergroundnews.net [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !undergroundnews.org [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !ugnsecurity.com [NC]
# Start Affiliate Hosts #
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !ubbdev.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !ubbcentral.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !home.corthell.net [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !virtualnightclub.net [NC]
# Start Search Engine Hosts #
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !google.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !yahoo.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !picsearch.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://aolsearch.aol.com [NC]
# Start defined files & redirect location #
RewriteRule [^/]+.(exe|com|swf|fla|mp3|mov|wmv|rm|ram|wma|zip|txt|bat|tar|rar|gz|tgz|gif|jpg|jpeg|psd|png)$ - [F] Basiclly, the rewritecond's for the referrer are domains you wish to allow, then the rule between the ()'s are the type of files, and the - at the end of the rule is where you'd put the file to load (or - for none). So for images only, just leave gif|jpg|jpeg|psd|png then set the - to a full url of an image of your choosing (say a big banner saying "Stop stealing our bandwidth" ... You'd ofcoarse want to add any domain that can access your files from your site (like i did in section 1) Oh, and the search engine bit there still lets search engines troll your site and display images, but that's for more of a method of gaining incoming users so they can still see graphics.

I have a few more questions if you don't mind answering! 1. Is there a way to also add a new photo without having to upload via the image manage. ie. if someone already has a photo on photobucket/facebook, why can they not use the IMG tahs around the photo? 2. When commenting on a photo is there a way for someone to add a photo using IMG tags in their reply? I see our users wanting these options. 3. Is there a way to change the error message that comes on in the Image Manager Box to plain English. I know that the issue was that my photo was too large, is there a way to state this in stead of this? We encountered a problem. The reason reported was
Script: /var/www/path/to/ubb/forum/ubbthreads/scripts/filemanager.inc.php Line#: 278 SQL Error: Incorrect integer value: '' for column 'FILE_WIDTH' at row 1 SQL Error #: 1366 Query: UPDATE ubbt_FILES SET FILE_NAME = '26.jpg', FILE_ORIGINAL_NAME = 'IMGP3291 - Copy.JPG' , FILE_WIDTH = '' , FILE_HEIGHT = '' WHERE FILE_ID = '26'

1. Hot-linking without the permission of the server's admin is a no-no. Plus, you don't have control over another server's content. It could always change or just plain go away, leaving you with possible obscene images or broken images. 2. This has been brought up before, but I don't believe it is an option at this point in time. 3. It pretty much is already in plain English. "Incorrect integer value: '' for column 'FILE_WIDTH' at row 1" It is actually saying that the integer value of nothing is incorrect. A value >0 for the file's width needs to be passed. 'Incorrect integer value' = Bad number ':' = ,which is '' = nothing, 'for column 'FILE_WIDTH' at row 1' = for the FILE_WIDTH value Easy peasy Japanesey to comprehend.

Normally if your attachment file is to large based on file permissions you get a message like: We encountered a problem. The reason reported was
Files can be no larger than 75 Bytes bytes.
Please click back to return to the previous page. I have set the limit to 75b for this example. Yes the Bytes bytes echo is a flaw in the language file. Also you may have edited your mysql.inc.php file to show errors from a previous problem. Which should be turned back off. HERE is a post on this subject. Looking at your post users should never see your paths in a error message. In fact it is probably to late for you to edit your post but maybe one of the moderators could alter it so we can't see it.Just use the notify option in this topic and request someone to edit your post to mask your absolute path. But it really looks like the file you are testing is hosed up. I currently am using 7.5.2 and I think you have a prior 7.2 version but I don't recall a change in this area of the code.
