vBulletin-Carplate

[Vossi]

What is vBulletin-Carplate:

With this addon you can create little car plates within your forum and even allow the use of it in other forums (with advertisement).

Installation

- !!! always create a backup from the database of your forum !!!
- upload files within folder 'upload' to your server via FTP.
- set chmod '777' for following directory:

/vbcarplate/userplates/
- import 'product-vbcarplate.xml' in admincp
- check usergroup rights
- import wanted carplate types in admincp under 'vBulletin-Carplate' -> 'Manage carplates'
- do the settings under -> 'vBulletin-Carplate' -> 'Settings'
- done

If you dont use TMS you need to do the template modifications manually, check the '/templateedits'-folder for details. The AddOn doesnt work properly without those changes.

Edit:

It would be nice to get more translations and if you help me to create carplates for your country. This addons grows with the help of the community.

Some more screenshots with this post...

Have a little issue here. See attachment.

[Vossi]

Weird... :confused:

What you could try is to delete the lines within the product:
require_once(DIR . '/includes/functions_vbcarplate.php');
create_vbcarplate_datastore(true);
and try to generate the datastore out of the tools in admincp then.

Very nice :)

In the US there are Car Plates (License Plates) for each State... And most States have multiple Plate formats... Could easily reach 400 plates just for the US.

[Vossi]

Yeah, I read about that. I was trying to do a test with the acual NY-plate. It worked fine so that might be a base for creating the most important plates for the US.

[TheRedGoat]

Would you be able to modify this to make it a country flag instead of a license plate?

I have been searching for something for 4.0.6 to display flags for each user.

http://www.15q.net/canindexold.html

still actual? If yes then I can help if you want me to.

[Krusty1231]

Thank you for your offer. I had a look at ALL those plates for every province. They are all correct. With only 10 provinces and 3 Territories those plates could be added?

Thanks

[Merjawy]

I like it... very neat

How do we help? you need pictures of plates to add them?

Also, it set for postbit and I am using postbit legacy so its not showing there.. it shows above and under signature only

4.0.6


Thanks

EDIT:
I switched to postbit and still won't show under username or in profile ... It only shows up above and under signture


EDIT2:
My bad.. I did not read the note about manually editing template. :) .. Will do that now and see

EDIT3:

Yep yep... it worked just fine after I manually edited the template

Thanks

When viewed on RTL, the layout is not lined up ... The especially if there are 3 boxes

LTR
District of car registrationCharacters
as you can see, no space and not above each box

State:Inspection to (month):
way at the end of box

and you have two boxes together and one alone

RTL

the labels are fine, however, the three boxes are separated 1 to far right, 1 in middle of page and 1 to far left

[DAMINK]

This is kick ass. :) I will be sure to try it out.
Really a cool mod mate. I hope it works well.
Will be sure to reply to this.

This is nice but will have to wait for the US plates

[BlackJacket]

This is awesome! As soon as you get JDM (Japanese) and U.S. Spec plates i will be installing. Please hurry because i really want this mod! :D

[Vossi]

Plates for the US or Canada are no problem to include, look:

121755

I fetched the plate and those few chars for it (as i didnt find the complete fontset).

What I need for plates from the us and canada is the plate itself and the fontset. The rest can be done with the addon already.

[Vossi]

Also available ist brasil and the UK:

121765

[Brandon Sheley]

looks like a fun app, maybe we'll add it to our forum :)

Vossi, I don't have the fontset, but there is a site with the plates from the United States, Canada and Mexico.


United States Current Plates: http://www.15q.net/curr.html
Canada Current Plates: http://www.15q.net/currcan.html
Mexico Current Plates: http://www.15q.net/currmex.html


I would love to install this, but need the United States plates first. :)

[NTMID8]

Any update on plates for the US? I could have it up and running on my forum as soon as Indiana, Kentucky and Ohio are available.

[NTMID8]

I just got notified that v1.0.3 was released, though it looks like it is only on the vBulletin Germany site. Could you please update your mod here as well, please?

[bosanci28]

[Scalemotorcars]

Vossi. PLEASE update this mod with the one at VB Germany. Thanks!!!!!

[Dragonsys]

I wonder if this could be used to generate a random plate for a user upon registration

[Scalemotorcars]

Well its been a few years and no reply. It looks like this mod is dead. To bad I would have loved to see this updated with US plates.:D
