XThread gallery - Difficulty
Hi,

I have been looking far and wide in search of a decent gallery to use with MyBB, especially as my forum theme is so heavily customised that third party integrations can't really match my theme.

For reference my website is here: http://www.vampirecounts.net

So my conundrum is I want a gallery with good features (for example coppermine), but I want it to fully integrate with my forum, which only simple galleries lacking the features I want do.

So looking at Xthreads, I am wondering if it could do what I am looking for, but I wonder about the difficulty of it as it looks complicated and my coding knowledge is very limited.

So rather than ramble on, I'll post here what I would like from my gallery and would very much appreciate if someone could advise whether it is possible with XThreads, and if someone with limited knowledge in this area would be able to implement it.

Requirements
  • Full intergration with MyBB forum in regards to logins etc
  • Users can create their own albulms to upload their pics
  • Pics can have a title, tags,, ability for users to comment on. It would be useful if the url of the pic could be displayed to link elsewhere in the forum
  • Ability to search in the gallery for specific tags / titles
  • Images to be limited to a certain size. Ideally would be able to see standard size image, then click for full size
  • Latest pictures are updated in index and shown in searches such as posts in last 24 hours (like posts/threads do).
  • Users get notifications on comments etc as they would on a normal thread (i.e replies).
  • Normal moderator options, restrictions on album creation (example guests can create)

If the above could be done I would be very interested in this. There are more features I would like on this, like link to album in postbit, show random pics on portal etc however I think they may be wishful thinking.

Thank you in advance for any help.

Cheers

DoN

This MyBB forums is using Coppermine: http://www.pavementsucks.com/photos/index.php
& this is its tutorial to integrate it: http://community.mybb.com/thread-76482.html

Or You can use this simple gallery plugin: http://mods.mybb.com/view/ezgallery

I doubt the integration is a full integration.
And I don't believe anything can allow you to create multiple "albums" per se.
