PonyTab released (User Pics in Ponygallery)

@ lennox: Well yes, that's exactly what I did:

At my site, the user has a menu item in the "Edit"-menu of CB which links to his gallery User Pannel, I think it's better there.

However, I would use "userpannel" instead of "showupload". That way, the user can check his uploads there (maybe delete or edit something) and upload pictures with the "new" button.



@ CB Devs: Would it be possible to include that menu item by default into CB, if it finds the config of Ponygallery present?

hehe very nice....
Oke, now the next step...
I want the picture pop-up in a blank screen when you click on it in a profile.
that would be great.

I have that on my old site, with zoom:

www.nightcity.nl/m00n (then click on: fotoalbum (=Photoalbum)

To have a icon in the CB menu in you're profile for the photo upload function for the ponytab please follow this steps

cb.menu.php (components/comprofiler/plugin/user/pluginmenu or something like that

Just add this code after line 834 (You can put it in a other place)

[code:1]// PONYTAB!:
$mi = array(); $mi["_UE_MENU_EDIT"]["_UE_MENU_PONY"]=null;
$this->menuBar->addObjectItem($mi, _UE_MENU_PONY,sefRelToAbs($ue_pony_url), "",
"<img src=\"".$adminimagesdir."newavatar.gif\" alt='' />","", _UE_MENU_UPDATEPROFILE_DESC,""«»);[/code:1]

Then go to line :780 (URL STRING)
And at this line:
[code:1]$ue_pony_url = "index.php?option=com_ponygallery&func=showupload";[/code:1]

Then open the lang. file from comprofiler:
and make a new line:
[code:1]DEFINE('_UE_MENU_PONY','Upload a picture in the album');[/code:1]

you said:

"Just add this code after line 834 (You can put it in a other place)"

You said it very nicely, but maybe didn't expect that you can even add menu items in your own plugin without hacking the core cb plugins...

Check the plugin API documentation for the way to that

Wooooow! This plugin bombs CB & Joomla! :woohoo:

It would be nice, if everything would be inside the plugin itself (Upload) and don't "switch" to PonyGallery Component. It's a little bit confusing for my users. They don't understand, why they have to leave their profile to upload. In the same time, it would be great if you could select the galleries, who the users are allowed to upload. At the moment, each user can upload his images anywhere in Pony.

In other respects, GREAT WORK!!!!

PS: I'm not a PHP scripter, but if you need some help with icons/images, just send me a PM.

I'll see what I can do, but I don't know how wise it is to have all to code of PonyGallery "outsourced" at the plugin.
'Cause as soon as there are changes in the implementation of the gallery, the whole tab has to be re-written...

That configuration can be done in the Ponygallery setup (backend)

This tab is not working for me I have installed it with CB plugin installer then I choose where I want it to be and it is not shown in tab menagment it is published
