Michael's initial post got too long to post all bugfixes and ensure everyone got the latest copy that solves the issues brought up in that threads so here you go. Thanks Michael for your tireless work in bringing us Photopost.

nice one, thanks for summarizing the changes O

There only been about a hundred

Just Kidding!

hmmm.. no workie:
http://www.fiebre.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php

ok, I had to take out the 'require photopost.inc.php' line because it was printing the contents of that file at the bottom of ubbthreads.php and not the pictures

I just added the info right into the ubb threads template, which isn't good from a security standpoint.

Besides that, there's some table issues, for some reason it's not printing the tbclose after the first set of member's categories. That a photopost bug?

Has anyone of you made experiences with photopost 3.2 pro?

I am thinking about buying it and integrating it into my threads 6.2.2. If someone has already tested this it would be nice to get an email to exchange some info...

most everyone in this thread uses photopost 3.2.1 pro

Allen I will attach my template here. I have no problems or table problems either. Let me know what you come up with. Yeah from a security issue require photopost-inc.php would be a good choice to use. I know Michael is using that option with no problem. Now I think if I remember correctly in the other thread you had problems when you first installed this hack. I beleieve that came from needing to replace the closing table tags with $tbclose right before this hack. But then that has been documented. Use beyond compare as I also have a few other hacks installed.

Jluerken,

For a complete integration of Photopost into UBBThreads go look at my site http://www.reeftalk.com or Michael's site http://www.extremefitness.com Now we both run Photopost 3.2.1 but He runs Threads 6.1.1 and I run Threads 6.2.2

Allen I just looked at your template at that site. I see no obvious big differences between template except your not using the require statement.

I did notice after running this site through the validator there where multiple invalid tables on this site. The total errors were a whopping 521 so I would think that your seeing the result of those errors graduating down. Thats weird as this hack itself is XHTML COMPLIANT. There is no explanation for what is displaying on that site from this hacks point of view. I see where that $tbclose is not being read. I will look into that part of the hack and see if there is anything that can be done. Mysterious to say the least. I would tend to think that if it misses one tbclose it would miss another.

Very Very nice work!! Are table wrappers required for this one? Been dragging my feet adding that hack.

No table wrappers are not required though they will work for this mod LOL This hack is for 6.2 as it uses the tbopen and tbclose templates.

I had to make an update for forums which have multiple categories:

Thanks Michael attachment updated.

thanks everyone, that did the trick I'll work on tackling the require statement weirdness now

Yeah, there's lots of xhtml validation errors, the site owner is using some advertising code that's causing ~95-99% of them, making it difficult to track down any others in the list

Yeah tell me I freaked when I saw 521 errors.

Having difficulty with the require statement it lists the photopost.inc.php contents below the ubbthreads content.

I tried using beyond compare and omegatrons template for comparison. Looks good... but missing something with tired eyes. Need to win that review post license ya know

I found a fix to the photopost.inc.php file printing the contents.

At the top of the file add this:

<?

at the bottom, add this:

?>

That prevents it from printing and parses it as code.

Omegatron / Michael -

Any idea here.... it seems to only print every other category for me.

Here's the photopost:

Here's the threads site:

Note how it does every other category.
