gallery tab in forum

[cme1st2302]

Ok...I am new to the site and  would like to thank everyone in advance.  What I am tring to do is the following....I would like to include a login on my main page, which is a .shtml, so when people login it will keep them on the main page but if they click on the forum page it will recognize they are already logged in.  I am fairly new at this forum thing and would really appreciate any help I can get.  If you could include the code and where to put it that would be great.  Another thing too...I also have gallery2 installed on my site and if I could link all three to recognize the login that would be even better. 

Thanks,
Chris

For linking SMF and Gallery2, check out the SMF + G2 Integration Project.

As for integrating the SMF login, check out the SSI.php file included with SMF. You might need to change to php to use it, although depending on how the server is configured, shtml might work.

[cme1st2302]

  Cool....that is exactly what I was looking for with the G2 SMF integration.

I already have the login on the .shtml page but when I log in it takes me to the forum.  Is there a way to make it stay on the .shtml page and still know i'm logged in to the forum. 

Thanks,
Chris

I tried installing the mod and it seems that nothing happens.  It shows up in the list under features and options but there is no gallery tab at the top or anything that makes me believe they are linked together.  If I use a theme (Blocked),  do I have to do something special in the coding to make it work.  Another thing is I renamed the gallery2 folder to gallery.  Please help, I really want this to work because I love both programs and I don't want my users to have to login on both the forum and the gallery seperatly.

I appreciate everyones help so far!!! It is great to have such a wealth of knowledge right at my fingertips.

Thanks,
Chris

Far of my idea you need to install them manually in themes other then default

Use Package Parser. It will tell you where and what to do.

http://sleepycode.com/PackageParser/index.php

[cme1st2302]

When I try to run the package parser I get the following error:

ERROR: The package-info.xml file is invalid!


Debugging Information
Error message: String could not be parsed as XML
Source: /home/sleepy1/public_html/PackageParser/index.php:155

the package parser won't always work -- especially if the mod is coded in boardmod. 

The file to be modified is index.template.php -- if you look in the default theme's index.template.php and search for gallery (might not be the first result) then you should see how it added a block of code.   Then look at your theme's index.template.php around the same place where the tabs/buttons are defined -- you'd just need to add a new block of code there for it by copying one of the existing ones

let me know if you require more assistance

I am having a problem making the gallery tab to show up like the others in the forum on my site http://www.sjaaaa.com/Forum\.  I've tried everything I can think of.  Can anyone help???  I am using the blocked theme and the code for index.template.php is below.

/* This template is, perhaps, the most important template in the theme. It
contains the main template layer that displays the header and footer of
the forum, namely with main_above and main_below. It also contains the
menu sub template, which appropriately displays the menu; the init sub
template, which is there to set the theme up; (init can be missing.) and
the linktree sub template, which sorts out the link tree.

The init sub template should load any data and set any hardcoded options.

The main_above sub template is what is shown above the main content, and
should contain anything that should be shown up there.

The main_below sub template, conversely, is shown after the main content.
It should probably contain the copyright statement and some other things.

The linktree sub template should display the link tree, using the data
in the $context['linktree'] variable.

The menu sub template should display all the relevant buttons the user
wants and or needs.

Also, if I am logged in to the forum and click on the gallery tab should it show me as logged in on the gallery.  Do I have to modify something else due to the fact that I'm using the blocked theme.

Thanks in advance,
Chris

[metallica48423]

merged the topics.  deleted the last post with the link.

Can you post the block that the gallery installed into the default template?  then i can compare and give you the block to put in your custom theme.

<td valign="top" class="maintab_' , $current_action == 'gallery' ? 'active_back' : 'back' , '">
<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=gallery">' , $txt['galleryTitle'] , '</a>
</td>' , $current_action == 'gallery' ? '<td class="maintab_active_' . $last . '">&nbsp;</td>' : '';

I believe it is exactly the same

Find:

Koodi [Valitse] Laajenna


// Go to PM center... [pm]
if ($context['user']['is_logged'] && $context['allow_pm'])
echo '<li', $current_action == 'pm' ? ' id="active"' : '', '><a href="', $scripturl, '?action=pm"><span>' , $txt['pm_short'] , ' ', $context['user']['unread_messages'] > 0 ? '[<strong>'. $context['user']['unread_messages'] . '</strong>]' : '' , '</span></a></li>';



Add after:

Koodi [Valitse] Laajenna


// How about the [gallery] button?
    if ($context['allow_gallery'])
echo '<ul><li', $current_action == 'gallery' ? ' id="active"' : '', '><a href="', $scripturl, '?action=gallery"><span>', $txt['galleryTitle'], '</span></a></li>';

  Cool it made the button look like the others but it shifted the gallery button and all the ones after it down, take a look http://www.sjaaaa.com/Forum

Another thing is that the link doesn't work.  The href is pointing to $scripturl.  Is this a file I have to modify to make the link work?

By the way....THANKS for ALL your help metallica48423,  I appreciate it.

I'm going to bed now so I will check back in the morning.

oops... take <ul> out of the replacement code i posted above (thats what i get for copying the home button code )

[cme1st2302]

That worked great!!!!  The gallery link works when I am not logged in but when I login and hit the gallery tab it says the following:

We have detected that an account
with this username already exists in the gallery.
Please enter your Gallery password to continue.

I enter my password then it goes to a blank page

i don't know how the gallery works per-se, you really should ask the author of the gallery about it. 

I apoligize, but ive never used the system.
