You can also remove the tables.
If you are using MS Access, download the database, delete them using Access, tolls/database/repair it, and re-upload.
If using MS SQL Server, use EM.
One other option is to write a simple DBS file and use MOD setup in admin (with caution).

Well, I've converted everything to response.writes real pretty code now!. Also makes it suitable for 3.4 release I will be packaging the new code for both 3.3.x and 3.4.x and have it up no later than Monday, so I can have some test time.I have also cleaned up the navigation a bit looks prettier. Rewrote the admin page that actually shows what the current settings are. Finds the size of a pic all exept tiff file types and sets the view size to get rid of the jerkyness that was reported, thanks Bozden! Moved all the functions used to a single include to clean up the code a bit. Minor bug fix that would show the "edit your album" when you didn't have an album to edit.
Things on the list now for the next release are:
Paging for large albums
More user friendly setup/removal launched from the admin page, no running a setup file you had to type in manually.(may bundle this up in mondays release)
Admin option to make a single forum album.
Admin would have control over making categories categories but any user could upload that had a album acount
The ability to pic a picture to show at the album level an entry pic like I have seen on stand alone albums.
Ether display a photo in its own pop up or in the browser like now.
Some type of security to prevent off site linking of photos.
Secured albums maybe tied to private forums.
If anyone has any other ideas or a good way to implement an option listed for the next release let me know!
Thanks for all the input!

how do I get the album to look at a directoru higher than my forum.
For Example:
My forum is in
www.site.com/forum
My uploads directory is in:
www.site.com/uploads
Right now, the album wants to go to
www.site.com/forum/uploads
Thanks for the help and the mod!! |

I didn't plan for that without a virtual directory. I am working on that right now. The way I have it setup is a directory on a data drive and a virtual drive mapped under my forum folder in IIS you should be able to enter in the direct path to the photos in the admin page just like the example for the thumbnailer instead of just the name of the directory, i.e. the apsolute path c:\pic\ . Or, you can enter the path like /Uploads it should map it back to the root of the site. I tested it out by having my default site i.e. http://mysite.com/ be the root. I moved the forum to a directory called forums so we have http://mysite.com/Uploads and http://mysite.com/forums. It seemed to work just fine. If you have any problems with it just let me know!
Thanks for trying the mod out!

I tried using the absolute path and the picture in the album (on the web page) is now pointing to:
file:///d:/(path)
Is there any way I can modify the code to use a virtual path? |

Nevermind on that, I got it to work by using the / in front of "uploads" like you suggested, however...
When I upload a picture, everything seems to go fine, but it never creates the user's folder and does not upload the picture...
I double checked my directories and the picture was nowhere to be found. The album looks as is everything is correct, it just displays the red"X".... |

Well, I have made a huge error in logic... You cannot use the d:/folder/files/image.jpg, If you don't use a folder off of the root of you web site you will have to map a virtual directory. I'm almost done recoding all the statements needed and adding as much error trapping I can.

New minor version up! Check the new readme at the beginning of this thread. Please send any bug reports! I try to fix anything like that ASAP. It should now handle any directory off the root web site. Also, you can now do a partial uninstall from the admin page. It will delete all photos uploaded to the site and remove all the tables it created. You will have to delete the album files themselves from your site. I am going to clean up the code base more i.e. variable useage connections and file system object useage to eek some better performance numbers and keep the mod from being a burden to busy sites. Next I will be adding:
Paging for large albums
Admin option to make a single forum album.
Admin would have control over making categories categories but any user could upload that had a album acount
The ability to pick a picture to show at the album level an entry pic like I have seen on stand alone albums.
Ether display a photo in its own pop up or in the browser like now.
I won't be taking on security yet as I don't have a strong enough working knowledge of snitz security in 3.3.05 or 3.4. If anyone has any clues for me please, let me know!

| I am having problems with the file upload. It appears to work correctly, but it never creates the folder or actually uploads the file. I know I have access to FSO and write permissions, because I have another ASP file that uploads files directly into my uploads directory... |
