SMF Media Gallery (SMG) - 2.0.5 is out! (December 2)

[Burke ♞ Knight]

In permissions for each membergroup, there will be one for auto approve.

[KahneFan]

I have that marked, but it doesn't seem to be working for some reason.

[Dragooon]

What version are you running?

[KahneFan]

1.5.1

Just to be sure, attached is my settings for "Regular Members"

[Burke ♞ Knight]

Not sure if it matters, but Add User Album is unmarked.
Not sure if regular members can upload to the regular gallery albums.

[KahneFan]

I'm wanting to have general albums, not user specific albums. As a (test) user I can upload images, they just show they need approval.

[panzz]

I have a quick question too. Is it currently not possible to let items be "really" automatically approved?

What I mean is that right now, users have to click on the approve button for single uploads and that is not "really" automated like the mass upload that just places all the uploaded items into the selected album without having the need to click on approve for each of the items.

If that is not how it should be originally, then I must have done something and require your help very much!

My SMG Version is 1.5.1 and forum version is 1.1.7 in case you have to know.

Thanks

hello.... i had 3 questions.. but one has been solved by the search... it seems that this mod is compatible with the Lightbox mod

So... i have two quetions left..

I have regular members and VIP members. Is it possible to for me to choose a membergroup who can view a specific video album?

Is it possible that the VIP members can choose to only show an album they have made to the VIP Members?

Thanks!

I just tried posting as admin and it still tells me I have to approve my own image. I don't mind having to approve images if someone can tell me where to find the code for the bar pictured below so that I can move it to the standard index page. This would make it so I can clearly see when images need to be approved.

Hey Ya'll,

  I was looking around the SMF site and saw someones list of installed mods and one of them was "SMG Slideshow Addon", can anybody tell me where to get this mod?

     Thanks Lots,

I do not know.. but why do you need it if the new version contains "Highslide animated transitions with per-album settings" ?

Its a premium addon for SMG, which can be found over http://store.smf-media.com

Hmm I'm doubting it as a bug. Let me investigate then I'll post what I've found.

No thats definitely not the original behavior

[Dragooon]

@All the items always being unapproved issue -
Open MGallery.php
Find

Code Select Expand

$still_unapproved = true;
Replace with

Code Select Expand

$still_unapproved = mGalAllowedTo('auto_approve_item') ? false : true;
Tested and works.

/Sources/MGallery.php if it help anyone.

Thanks Dragoon!

BTW, any chance you could make it so we could show the media (all folders together) as a board on the index?

Example:

Sample Category
- Board 1...... 3 Post - 1 Topic
- Board 2...... 56 Post - 4 Topics
- Board 3...... 24 Posts - 3 Topics
- Media Gallery...... ## Files (or posts) - ## Folders (or topics)

And make it so the "On" lights up when there's new content? I think this would draw more people to the galleries, plus give an easy indicator to admin when there's new content.

This is an awesome mode, Overall this mod Nails everything that one can want in a Mod like this! Thnx for this.

One question ?  I have highslide enabled but it is not working any help?

[KahneFan]

Dragoon, along with my suggestion above, another thought; would there be a way to link to a post similar to the calendar does? I'm not sure a site with A LOT of pics would want to do this, but it might be nice for an image/art specific forum to be able to have the option of creating a thread inside their boards each time an image is posted instead of commenting inside the gallery. Not something I would use, but I could see it being used.

I run SMF 1.1.7  what could be wrong?

[Burke ♞ Knight]

Another mod may have edited the file wrong.
That sometimes happens.
You will have to manually install on that file:

I have only found one other issue like this in my search, but no resolution.

I installed this and converted from an smf-lite gallery. Everything works great.

However....

I decided to change the default thumbnail/preview size. after words I went into maintenance to use the Regenerating thumbnails and previews section.

When attempting to regenerate any, it ticks once, counts 5 or whatever of xxx number of files. Does its refresh, but instead of continuing, kicks me out to the main smf admin page.
I have not been able to use any of the main maintenance functions because of this, which has led to some pics having different sized thumbnails.

Any idea on how I could do it manually perhaps, or maybe an idea on why I have this issue. There are approximately 200 items in the gallery.
