[MOD] SMF integration

[AntiNSA2]

Thanks for your help.  I appreciate you trouble shooting this. Unfortunately that mod was one from kurt who is now gone and he took all his mods with him. I can attach my sessions.php amd functions if it helps---


Thanks again-

Thanks again-

looked over your files but did not see anything unusual about them. The variables do not seem to overlap...
Can not tell for sure without actually installing the starrating mod 
If anyone can get me any info on that mod for me to place on my test site to see what is conflicting, that would be great!
I know that the star ratings seem very important for almost every 4images site. Not sure if Kurt was behind all of them or if there are any left. The one I used was the hover line thing in the details page. Not sure who created it. It has been installed for awhile now. Have not touched that part of the code and it works fine with the SMF mod at my site.
I do not have the ratings for thumbnails, kinda wish I did but not high on my list of things to do....

AntiNSA2,
Sorry I could not help

no problem... It looks as though I am going with the vbulletin forum... Thanks for you help and effort-

Jetzt hab ich 5 Seiten gelesen, SMF find ich ja eh klasse, sieht man ja an diesem Forum, darum meine Frage:
Öffnet sich SMF immer als externe Seite, oder wird das so eingebunden, wie das Dreamboard??

Gibt es mal paar Links zu Seiten, wo SMF als Brindge von 4images aus, eingebunden ist??

google translated to this...

Now I've read 5 pages, SMF find ich ja klasse anyway, so you can see on this forum, so my question:
SMF always open an external site, or is so involved, such as the Dream Board?

Are there times some links to pages where SMF Brindge by 4images than that is involved?

Still not sure what you are actually asking?

near top of my post it is listed... (not very clear... will modify it better for future)

http://www.simplemachines.org/download/?tools
download the smf api file and place it in the root of your smf forum (mine is root\forums)
It is called SMF 1.1.x API on their site...

I just updated my gallery to 1.7.7 and SMF to 1.1.9 this morning and running a bunch of tests to make sure everything is still working. I logged in/out a few times without any issues...

I do know of one bug with my mod that is you log out of the admin panel it does not log you out of the forum.
I just know not to logout of admin and logout at the main user login/out screen instead....

lets see, when you will be finished and it functions!

Have not heard of anyone saying it does not work...
I did not create the API's that are doing all the work. It has been working fine on my site since my first post in this topic. I only showed everyone how to integrate the API's so they will login-out the forums when you login-out of 4images. The admin panel was an oversight. I seldom logout at that panel anyway so have not seen a reason to find it logout routine but may look into it.
I wish 4images made some kind of API inteface to talk with the rest of the world of products that are out there. I feel 4images is the best and for my taste SMF is the best forum so they should be together in some way.

My big projects are starting to wind down so I may have some extra time this summer to work on it again, My only fear is that 4images would come out with a whole new and better system before I get done and all the work goes down the drain. SMF is still in beta on thier version 2 so will have to look at things deaper.

Sorry for the rant,
Question for everyone, are they wanting the gallery to be inside of SMF or the other way around or is everyone wanting them to be thier own pages just usernames to be the same?

In Version 1.7.7 it is dosn´t wort!
i hav a problen in:
4images:
includes/session.php near line 170 an line 156
SMF:
in Sources/Profile.php or in Themes/default/Profile.template.php

A new user in 4images on CP > Adminstrator is a User (Level 0) in SMF not Level 1 = Administrator

What is the error in the session.php and profile.php or the profile.template.php files?

The permissions question...
Yes, you are correct. I believe it is in the api that way by design. The permissions are handled independently of just actually creating an account. I liked it that way because I would not necessarally want the admin of the gallery to be an admin on the message boards. I preferred making my own decisions in that area. So yes, you still have to handle permissions on each database.
All it does is make them a normal user in the API using the username/password they created on the 4images side so you do not have to recreate the account on the SMF side. I did not design it that way. All I do is go into the smf admin area and upgrade people that I wish to but I can see where if you have allot of people it would become a bother.

I do not know how the other bridges/connectors handle this information and I have no desire to buy vbulletin to find out.
For being free, I am happy how this mod turned out. Will think about your ideas when I get more time to look into the code more.

[honda2000]

I work and get it probably also!
Result become I naturally post.
I do not give up!
