I double the request :D please help us to use 4images as a component/module in joomla, instead of using joomla wrapper function… :|. I think this will be the best CMS- gallery combination available  :D

Thanks in advance :)

You might want to look at the Joomla component "com_connector" http://forum.joomla.org/index.php/topic,21066.0.html  I believe that with it you may be able to acomplish what you are looking for.

here is the basic idea of the component that scubaguy mentioned above. Now if the 4images developers can spend about maybe 15 mins on this then maybe 4images can be integrated with joomla. here is the LINK
sample SMF file is attached. it has comments which are helpful.
sample phpbb file is attached. that is the basic level integration needed.
vbulletin file is also attached, in case anyone wants a look :)
the functions that need to be done ( taken from the SMF file ) by the 4images developers are :
  • function login($username,$password)
  • function logout()
  • function userset($username, $password, $email)
  • function userget($userid)
  • function userupd($old_name, $username='', $password='', $email='')
  • function userdel($username='')
  • function getcookies()
these are all well marked and commented in the smf file. if the developers of 4images could do this then we can use joomla and 4images together.

Thanks in advance :)

what did I do :?:

* V@no does not do integrations.

oh nooo.... then who does? if my understanding is correct, just the code from 4images login function, user update function, etc needs to be included in that file. the smf one has been done already, and has the most functions. ie: user add, user del, user set etc, which can all be done through mambo. The most simplistic one is phpbb wich has just login and logout stuff, i think.
The smf attachment is properly commented. could somebody please just fill in the correct info so that we could start testing :)

Making a common login and integrating the user management into joomla/mambo is a nice idea, but the real use of this component/bridge will be when the 4images URL is reflected in CMS joomla/mambo URL….

^^ i dont understand. :(  i think that the component creates a wrapper for the 4images site. I have setup one for a default 4images and default Joomla and i think it looks great. In my site, i dont need the integration, but its nice to offer a powerful gallery software as 4images to potential clients who wish to use joomla.
my site: http://cutewalls.com  -> Look at the gallery link :D

Hi friends,

the Problem is, that a lot of People are using 4images and change to joomla...
more then 70% (sites with gallerys) install the community builder on Joomla/Mambo

the majority of the 4imagessites are communitys and with the time to CMS will change.
thinks of my words. I remind you in one year again of it

Please look at the Menalto-Gallery, he understand, that CMS-Integration inexorably, or 4images is a dead end for all CMS changed Websites

if anyone is trying to make an integration, then please take the url matter into consideration, rather than just integrating the user management part, give first preference to url integration, cause if a spider cannot index our sites well then there is very less chance that it will show up on the top 20 pages...

the wrapper functions is the last pref, cause it just does an visual integrations.... and from my experience; I have see, that even the best spiders do not index well within the wrappers... can say did not do it at all in my case.... spiders find it difficult to index such sites using frames....

Let's hope that out of our massive 12992 (as per 16/3/2006 ;) ) members here at 4images, someone comes up with a MOD to achieve this...
Wishing all the best  :D

I would pay anyone who would come up with the mambo/4images bridge (one login for both cms and 4images)
if you can do this and do it reasonably soon, make it functional, contact me! I need my 4images gallery and I really need to upgrade to a CMS asap.
