vBGarage v3.1.1 (now with GD-Lib support!)

[White Knight]

Hey I just want to be sure I am going to show you the right screenshots. Do you want to see the template edits I did for USERINFO and POSTBIT/POSTBIT LEGACY?
Otherwise, for my added styles, I just made sure I copied the two new templates created by the upgrade over to my other styleset.

I also have shots of how the mod looks after the upgrade but I think Magnus already attached his?

Ahh I thought you might have changed the edit garage template.. like modifications and so forth.. my mistake :).. i already did the postbit legacy.. works like a charm..

[SVTOA]

Ok great! :D

[White Knight]

Sweet. I got the thumbnails working. However, they are not working in the "Latest Uploads" table. Did I miss a part?

does my imagebits look correct to you?

Make sure you upload the latest vbgarage.php file.. he forgot to add that the first time around :)

[White Knight]

Ok great! :D

Yeah i am going to dip into the code as soon as Magnus is done with all the additions.. but at this rate I love watching his updates and changes.. becuase I never know if its already going to cover what I am looking for.. hahaha

[Ian Cunningham]

Excellent work Magnus :)

I do have a few ideas which I think might be good coded in!


WYSIWYG Editor - Should make posting MUCH easier for n00bs!
A small message posted after clicking "submit" to update details, informing that the page has actually been uploaded. A few of my users got confused and thought the script didn't work.
More than one vBGarage per person, which has been a frequent request from my users.


This is such a good hack you have created here! Let me know if I can help with any parts in anyway!

I am going to take a look at how GD2 works, as I use it for a gallery somewhere and the thumbs look a little different.

[magnus]

WYSIWYG Editor - Should make posting MUCH easier for n00bs!
Yea, I'm looking into that. I believe filburt mentioned it earlier. I'm not sure I can use the vB WYSIWYG Editor, since I'm not using the vB posting system. But, we'll see.

A small message posted after clicking "submit" to update details, informing that the page has actually been uploaded. A few of my users got confused and thought the script didn't work.
Do you have vB redirects disabled? I'm pretty sure I put a redirect message in there.

More than one vBGarage per person, which has been a frequent request from my users.
Yup. Already working on it. It's pretty much done, just working out the kinks.

I am going to take a look at how GD2 works, as I use it for a gallery somewhere and the thumbs look a little different.
By all means.. if you stumble upon anything, let me know. :D

Ian, the "more than one garage" is easy- you can do that now with no modifications other than to perhaps change the text of the first three input fields-

You can "cheat" so to speak by simply manipulating what text you enter in those boxes- I have two cars, so what I did:

field "year" entry: "2003"
field "make" entry: "Azure Blue Mach1 and"
field "model" entry: "1994 Rio Red Cobra"


Result is my Garage title appears as so:
"2003 Mach's 2003 Azure Blue Mach1 and 1994 Rio Red Cobra"

Then I just listed the Mach1 first and uploaded the pix for it first, then listed the Cobra second and uploaded the pix second, result is a garage with two cars in it. :D


See screenshot:

Make the same changes in your vbgarage_latestbits template. Replace do=thumb&amp;width=100 with do=getimage and add width=100 in the <IMG> tag.

See screenshot:
I think he was referring to two separate garages. Although, your idea works fine for the meantime. I will be allowing multiple garages (which is definable in AdminCP) in a future release.

[SVTOA]

Magnus: Please see #248?

Can we:
Enable or disable the IMG tag in the cpanel for the Garage?
As admins have the option to EDIT a member's garage for them?

Thanks!

[PranK]

So sweeet!!!!

2 Questions,

How hard would it be to integrate with Photopost (do you know?) I have an if statement atm so that if a user has a members gallery it will put a link to their gallery in the postbit - i was thinking of having a 'Click here for this users Gallery' type thing in the profile of the car.

Also, could this be integrated with the VB Timeslips?

Thanks again!! I'll install it regardless of the answers!! :)

Christian

* PranK clicks install.

[White Knight]

Hmmmm.. but why multiple garage's? I mean when I open my Garage door I see both my vehicals in the same garage. Maybe have it so you can add to different cars in the same garage? This way it keeps someones "Garage Profile" on the same page

[SVTOA]

I agree. Multiple garages will mess up the postbit link also. :(

[Ian Cunningham]

Yea, I'm looking into that. I believe filburt mentioned it earlier. I'm not sure I can use the vB WYSIWYG Editor, since I'm not using the vB posting system. But, we'll see.

I managed to integrate the WYSIWYG editor into the page, but I couldnt get it to submit the data correctly - I think that is just my lack of knowledge though, so I will keep trying.

Do you have vB redirects disabled? I'm pretty sure I put a redirect message in there.

I'll check this one out, as this must be at my end!

Yup. Already working on it. It's pretty much done, just working out the kinks.

You're good :D

By all means.. if you stumble upon anything, let me know. :D

Will do!

[magnus]

I managed to integrate the WYSIWYG editor into the page, but I couldnt get it to submit the data correctly - I think that is just my lack of knowledge though, so I will keep trying.

Exactly. Getting the WYSIWYG Editor to display is easy, it's simply a template. However, getting to actually submit is the trick. I may just have to create a secondary WYSIWYG routine/template and implement it. It's redundant, but it would work.

We'll see.

[Envy-UK]

Would it be possible for users to create seperate folders/garages within their initial garage?

Something like the attached image is what I'm thinking.

[magnus]

Magnus: Please see #248?

Thanks!
At the moment, you would have to edit vbgarage.php and change the parse_bbcode2(); options. I will, however, be implementing AdminCP options for these. If you want to go ahead and change it now, to allow [IMG] tags simply perform the following edit:

In vbgarage.php:

FIND:

$data['text'] = parse_bbcode2($data['text'],'0','0','1','1');


REPLACE with:

$data['text'] = parse_bbcode2($data['text'],'0','1','1','1');


As for Admin ability to edit, yes, that will included.

Just sitting here eagerly awaiting the next update :)
Well, it's the beginning of the week. I can't spit out updates as fast as I could over the weekend. :)

[Envy-UK]

Another question - Instead of having images pop-up, could they appear on a seperate page?

[joeychgo]

I hope not, you had me hoppin the last few days.

[joeychgo]

IM just curious as to why you want this (im learning as I go) ~~

[magnus]

Another question - Instead of having images pop-up, could they appear on a seperate page?
Sure. Edit vbgarage_imagesbits and remove the references to the PopUp javascript:(). Just use regular <a href=> tags.

[magnus]

I hope not, you had me hoppin the last few days.
Well, I try to make the updates as easy/painless as possible. ;)

[joeychgo]

no no, not complaining in the least..... youve been perfect, just complicated enough that I learn something while doing it without feeling overwhelmed or over my head --- absolutely perfect --- thanks :)

Your support for this hack is beyond compare. I think I will have to paypal another donation to the cause!
With that said... I sure do not mean to be a PITA, but.. Any ideas as to why the code that inserted into the POSTBIT_LEGACY and USERINFO templates that will create a link to the member's Photopost gallery will work fine in the postbit and user profile but nothing shows up or happens with the SHOWGARAGE when I insert the eaxct same code into that template?

This is how I am doing it in POSTBIT_LEGACY:
(my board url edited for example)

<!-- added gallery code here --><div class="smallfont"><br><br><a href="http://www.yourwebsite.com/vbulletin/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=500&ppuser=$userinfo[userid]&thumb=1"><smallfont>View my photo gallery</smallfont></a><br>
<!-- end gallery code-->

I would like it so that when a garage is viewed, there is a link generated to the user's photopost just like we have on the forums. Right now we are doing this manually.

[White Knight]

Magnus:

Looking into the latest pictures on front end. I noticed it would be kind of nice to have the username and there "Vehical" underneath there name. Not just a picture

I see you have this in the latestbits


<td class="alt2" colspan="1" align="center"><a href="$vboptions[bburl]/vbgarage.php?do=view&amp;id=$latest[userid]"><img src="$vboptions[bburl]/vbgarage.php?do=thumb&amp;width=100&amp;id=$latest[vbgarageid]" border=0 /></a></td>


However whever when I add

$user[username]'s $data[year] $data[make] $data[model]


it doesnt add the correct name.. plus doesnt input the year/make/model field.. just a username is under the picture.

Just was wondering if there was something simple.. if not dont worry about it.. had time to kill at work and just playing with template changes and stuff :)

[joeychgo]

maybe have it clickable, leading to that user's garage page?

[SVTOA]

I think i already know what the answer to my question will be about the photopost link- there will be an edit to vbgarage.php with a $data parse of vbcode string I need to ad, and I should be able to figure this out myself.
but an answer from Magnus would be fine too!

Hey guys- if you haven't done so, send Magnus a little donation via paypal, he has gone WAY beyond the call of duty with the support for this hack.

[Envy-UK]

Sure. Edit vbgarage_imagesbits and remove the references to the PopUp javascript:(). Just use regular <a href=> tags.

And what about putting the image on a page with the vbgarage surroundings?

[Envy-UK]

IM just curious as to why you want this (im learning as I go) ~~

Well, I just feel that's the way I'd like to take my version. I've never been a fan of pop-ups.

From there, you could add further options, perhaps it could also display the vB code for the image, etc.

<!-- end gallery code-->

<!-- end gallery code-->

[White Knight]

Welp just got done sending Magnus a little something for all his help and work. I must say he has taken the time to support this hack. I think he is a little suprised how many people wanted something like this :) I think this will be a very big turn out.

Thanks again Magnus.. I appreciate it

This worked perfectly, only thing to add is that the phrase

vbgarage_text_desc has to be edited so "IMG code is ON" will display in the edit or creation panel. :D

I am sending another payment for your time Magnus. Please go claim it!

[magnus]

I'm just really glad everyone likes the hack. I guess that's a hack authors biggest concern.. "will people like it?"

I appreciate all the support I've recieved from you guys, it really makes it all worthwhile. :)

As long as people keep using the hack, I'll keep working/adding/toiling over it. ;)

Yup. The vbgarage_text_desc will be updated automatically once I incorporate those toggles into the AdminCP. :)

Thanks for your donation! :)

Funny you said that.. was the first way I tried it also. :) Would only make sence though. Still showing up the last person's name on the page and doesnt show anything for information

Anyways dont worry about it.. it was something I was just trying to help out with thats all. I will continue to look for it.. Maybe one day you might come across it and have it added :)

Just to confirm, which template are you adding this information to?

[Envy-UK]

I'm just wondering if you've missed the following request:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=499122&postcount=282

Use this instead:

<!-- end gallery code-->

That was the ticket! And what I did to make it fit in with the garage, is edit the vbgarage_viewgarage template like so:

found "PHOTOS" and replaced the table with:

<td class="tcat">My MMA Garage Photos <!-- added gallery code here --><div class="smallfont"><a href="$vboptions[bburl]/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=500&ppuser=$data[userid]&thumb=1"><smallfont>You may also click HERE to see my MMA photo gallery pix!</smallfont></a>

That would require an additional template to be create and a little hacking. Hrm.. when I get home today, I see if I can make it a toggle in the AdminCP, "Use Popups?".

[magnus]

vbgarage_latestbits
In vbgarage.php:

FIND:

eval('$latestbits .= "' . fetch_template('vbgarage_latestbits') . '";');


Add ABOVE:

$latestuser = fetch_userinfo($latest[userid]);


Then, you can use $latestuser[username] to display the username. However, if you really want to view the vehicle info, it would requiring an extra query. If you don't mind an extra query, I can paste code for that, too.

I know the basics, so I'd be able to build the template, however, calling the appropriate image may be a problem for me.

Extra Query doesnt bother me.. heck im all about killing the CPU :P if it was on forumhome or something i would have to think twice :)

So sure another query would be fine.

BTW.. your addition worked fine. However now I am confused as ever. Im thinking I need to go open a php book or something. Just makes no sence to me why you have to basically do two things to make one output code.

But hey thats why i only do minor custom changes to fit my website now.. or I can get myself in real big trouble :)

Thanks for the code edit

[spence2]

How much text can people enter as comments? Could this be expanded?

[magnus]

Sounds good to me. :)

Actually, now that I think about it, this is cake:

In vbgarage_imagesbits:

REPLACE with:
(Be sure to include a SPACE at the end!)
<a style="cursor:pointer; cursor-hand" href="vbgarage.php?do=popup&amp;image=$vboptions[bburl]/vbgarage.php?do=getimage&amp;id=$image[vbgarageid]"><img src="$vboptions[bburl]/vbgarage.php?do=thumb&amp;width=175&amp;id=$image[vbgarageid]" alt="$image[name]" border="0" /></a>

In vbgarage_viewgarage:

FIND and DELETE:
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
function PopupPic(sPicURL) {
newWin=window.open( sPicURL, 'newWin',
'resizable=1,HEIGHT=200,WIDTH=200');
newWin.focus();
}
</script>


Now, customize vbgarage_popup to look however you want. Simply ignore the fact that it says "popup".

[magnus]

Just makes no sence to me why you have to basically do two things to make one output code.

I only store the userid in the vbgarage_images database. So, in order for it to return the username, I need to use the vB function fetch_userinfo(); which will parse the specified input (in this case $latest[userid] and return an array for that user consisting of his/her entry in the vB user database.

I'm then assigning that array as $latestuser and calling the specific field, username, with $latestuser[username].

I'll whip up the code for the vehicle info in a bit. :)

$result_data = $DB_site->query("
SELECT year,make,model FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "vbgarage_users WHERE userid = $latest[userid]
");

$data = $DB_site->fetch_Array($result_data);


Now, you should be able to return $data[year], $data[make], $data[model] in vbgarage_latestbits.

Let me know if you have any problems. :)

Everything is fine, apart from the thumbnails do not display.
Eh? That's odd.. that shouldn't change. Can you see what URL it's trying to parse for the thumbnails?

Are they displaying as X's?

[Envy-UK]

'vbgarage.php?do=thumb&width=175&id=20'

Yes, they're red X's.

The new page looks great though, see attachment.

Edit: Come to think of it, would it be possible to have the filename where I've added 'Return To Garage"? If so, what code would I need to add?

[magnus]

Edit: Come to think of it, would it be possible to have the filename where I've added 'Return To Garage"? If so, what code would I need to add?
Hrm, could you open your site real quick so I could take a look? Let's tackle this first, and then I'll paste the code how to do the filename.

[Envy-UK]

Sure, it's open.

I've been having a few style problems, let me know if the style you're viewing is the default vB style, if so, then those problems are still there.

[Envy-UK]

Just a quick note, my thumbnails were working today, as I received word from my host that they had upgraded to GD 2.0.

[magnus]

Sure, it's open.

I've been having a few style problems, let me know if the style you're viewing is the default vB style, if so, then those problems are still there.
Well, in the default vB style you still have popups. I cannot select any alternative style as there's no dropdown selector. :)

[magnus]

Well, nevermind.. here's your problem. When trying to access http://www.envy-uk.co.uk/vbgarage.php?do=thumb&width=175&id=20 directly, I recieved:


Warning: imagecreatetruecolor(): requires GD 2.0 or later in /homepages/33/d84375326/htdocs/envy/vbgarage.php on line 299

Warning: imagecopyresized(): supplied argument is not a valid Image resource in /homepages/33/d84375326/htdocs/envy/vbgarage.php on line 301

Warning: imagejpeg(): supplied argument is not a valid Image resource in /homepages/33/d84375326/htdocs/envy/vbgarage.php on line 302

Warning: imagedestroy(): supplied argument is not a valid Image resource in /homepages/33/d84375326/htdocs/envy/vbgarage.php on line 305


So, apparently they haven't upgraded. Or else, they haven't recompiled.

Unfortunately, I have a meeting to attend, so I probably won't be able to assist any further until around 5:30PM EST.

Here's the code for the filename, though:

In vbgarage.php:

FIND:

if ($_REQUEST['do'] == 'popup')
{
globalize($_REQUEST, array('image', 'id' => INT));


Add BELOW:
$result_data = $DB_site->query("
SELECT * FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "vbgarage_images WHERE vbgarageid = $id
");

$data = $DB_site->fetch_Array($result_data);


Now, you can call the filename with $data[name]. Good luck! :)

Hey before I forget- Magnus- Any chance of adding the ability for an admin to be able to edit a Garage for the user? Some of my members can barely type a reply much less type VB code, and I don't mind helping them with things like this. Also, the ability to enable IMG tags in the text area (controlled from the ADMIN CPANEL) would be really nice...

;)

i really need it too ;)

ur work is perfect mangus ;) :ok

[Envy-UK]

Thank you again, file name code works perfectly. ;)

I guess it's a case of waiting for my host to get themselves back on track regarding the GD 2.0 issue.

[M@rkus]

Hello Magnus.

I have another problem. I`ve installed a [BIMG]-Code. What do i have to do to prevent or deny my users this code in the description field?

[M@rkus]

Next Question: Can i change something on the pages of the user by myself?

[corsacrazy]

not yet

[White Knight]

Lol.. fixed it.. you dont even want to know what i did.. hahaha.. i am so bad :)

Its like Magnus giving me keys to a new car.. and me seeing how far I can take it without getting myself in trouble

[magnus]

Hello Magnus.

Hrm.. that's a good question. I'll have to look into that for you.

[esoin]

Make the same changes in your vbgarage_latestbits template. Replace do=thumb&amp;width=100 with do=getimage and add width=100 in the <IMG> tag.

Thanks magnus, it worked! Here's a screenshot of my website:

[esoin]

One thing i've noticed however. The "add comments" TEXT BOX, doesn't stretch. I think it's at a fixed width? Do you know where I would make that change?

[Envy-UK]

Magnus,

I'm looking forward to the next upgrade, can you reveal what you have in line for us next upgrade?

[joeychgo]

Magnus,

I'll tell ya... Upon clicking a button, a little guy is gonna jump out of the computer, run to the users house, take the pic of his car, and run back and upload it. This will take 2 template changes, 1 uploaded file and 3 querys.

: :banana:

[Envy-UK]

You made a funny! :ermm:

[joeychgo]

lol its about the only thing one of us hasnt asked for...

[Envy-UK]

lol its about the only thing one of us hasnt asked for...

To be honest, that's the truth. :tired:

[SVTOA]

I'm having a little glitch I can't figure out? Some members have no "upload button" anymore, since the last upgrade. If I use the original vbgarage.php for testing, then the browse button comes back. If I use the upgraded version, the upload pix function goes away again, but for me as an admin, it always works?

Any ideas??

Does just the button dissapear? Or does the entire field dissapear? The field will dissapear once the user reaches the preset number of images. The default is 6. Make sure you've set/saved the settings in the AdminCP.

[magnus]

Magnus,

Well, I've got Admin garage editing finished. Do you guys want me to release that now, or wait until there's more things added? There are no new templates and no new queries. Just a new vbgarage.php and a couple minor template edits.

I was going to hold off until I finished the multiple garage function. Let me know what you would prefer.

[magnus]

In vbgarage_viewgarage:

FIND:
<input type="text" class="bginput" name="comment" size="$stylevar[tablewidth]" /></td>

Change size="$stylevar[tablewidth]" to whatever you wish.

[magnus]

Organize Your vBGarage Templates

In includes/adminfunctions_templates:

FIND:

'subscription' => $vbphrase['group_paid_subscriptions'],


Add BELOW:

// START VBGARAGE HACK
'vbgarage' => $vbphrase['vbgarage'],
// END VBGARAGE HACK


You will now have a "vBGarage Templates" Category, which can be expanded and contracted, in your Template Editor. This is a nice little tweak which will clean up your template editor, Lord knows it's probably a mess. :)

multiple garage function when ready :). right now my users are happy..

Ok, what happens with even a "fresh" garage is that the browse box is not there, and this is even with members who have never uploaded even one pix?

I checked in the admin cpanel, even upped the minimum images to 8, still no joy. As I said, if I revert to the 3.01 version of the vbgarage.php file, the upload ability returns.

I'm thinking something is not right with the 3.1.0 version of the file?

Can you explain this a little better? You mean you ran the install process for the upgrade over again?

I guess my question is why does it work for me only, and why will it work when the OLD vbgarage.php file is used (renamed the upgraded file temp and re-uploaded the original)

Make sure you're now using the 3.1.0 version of the file, also, be sure to do the modifications to the file in the post below this. Or, you can just download the already "fixed" vbgarage.php in the upgrade thread here (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=498782&postcount=188)

So Magnus, do you have the version where I would be able to edit member's garages for them?? Release it!

[spence2]

When you say that access can be limited to usergroups do you mean that:

usergroups can be permitted/denied to view
usergroups can be permitted/denied to post
usergroups can be permitted/denied to comment

could commenter's name be a link to their profile?

is the database table used to hold model year able to accomodate alpha characters as well?

are you close to implimenting a WYSIWYG submission form?

have we told you lately that we love you?

[alkatraz]

wow!! thanks for the hack

can't wait to try it out when I upgrade. Hopefully integration with photopost will be availible then.

[magnus]

When you say that access can be limited to usergroups do you mean that:

At the moment, usergroups can only be permitted/denied to access vBGarage.

I am, however, planning to make it more selective in the future.


could commenter's name be a link to their profile?
Sure.

In vbgarage.php:

FIND:

while ($comment = $DB_site->fetch_Array($result_comment))
{


Add BELOW:

$user = fetch_userinfo($comment['username']);


In vbgarage_commentbits:

FIND:

$comment[username]


REPLACE with:

<a href="$vboptions[bburl]/member.php?u=$user[userid]">$comment[username]</a>


is the database table used to hold model year able to accomodate alpha characters as well?
The table you mean? Yes.


are you close to implimenting a WYSIWYG submission form?
No, not yet. That'll be next, after the multiple garage feature.

Hello Magnus,

I've just completed my donation as promised.

Your hack & support are of the highest quality. I installed your hack in the early hours of Sunday, running into much the same problems as dede1 in the first few pages. I believe my host's mysql database is rather ancient but is offered free due to the common interest in French cars.

It's taken me 3 days of interupted sittings to get through the 24 pages this thread has turned into.

I also bookmarked significant updates along this thread:

Post 82 (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=498262&postcount=82) gave new files & instructions on upgrading from v3.0 -> v3.0.1
Post 188 (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=498782&postcount=188) gave new files & instructions on upgrading from v3.0.1 -> v3.1.0
Post 232 (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=498914&postcount=232) Adds "Who's Online" Locations

I'm going to upgrade now :)

[White Knight]

Morning.. just wanted to give you a quick update.. Got 3 pages of user entries now.. people love it.. works very well. I will have to take a bite into the posting template again.. people want to just fill in fields instead of having to type code :)

[White Knight]

Can you explain this a little better? You mean you ran the install process for the upgrade over again?

Sorry bro.. ran out of time last night and ended up playing with the kid for a while..

But anyways it looks like you guys found it

I didnt reinstall. I just took out the template code out of the install script and added it in. Thats how I got it to work again

Kids are most important, got a few of them running around here. No problem bro.
I don't think that would have mattered in my case- if you read the info Magnus supplied, my copy of vbgarage.php needed updating and so did the template code, I must have had an older version of the ZIP file. It's all good now.

Don't want to hijack this thread or be out of line- just want to say I was lurking on your site and was in awe of the amount of traffic! Nice job man...!
sorry all, back to the topic!

Is there any chance to upload the users file not into the database. I want that these files get into an own directory on my server. Does the GD-Lib function would work anyway?

2. Extract and upload vbgarage.php from the archive and upload it to your server, overwriting your existing copy.

3. In vbgarage_editgarage:

FIND:

$bbuserinfo


REPLACE with:

$user[username]


FIND:

$logincode


REPLACE with:

<if condition="$bbuserinfo[userid] == $id">$logincode</if>


FIND:

<input type="hidden" name="do" value="edit" />


Add BELOW:

<input type="hidden" name="id" value="$id" />

Done !!

[u]Added Features in v3.1.1

Admin "edit" garage displayed on garage view.
Fixed missing require_once(); call.

[magnus]

Well, here it is, as promised. The only new thing added is the ability for the Admin to edit a user's garage. I didn't feel it was worth an upgrade, but, apparently you guys did. So.. here it is. I tested this on my forum for a bit, and I saw no problems.

As always, let me know if you have any problems! :)

Remember, if you've made any modifications to your vbgarage.php, you'll need to reapply them! :)

[SVTOA]

I am in process of upgrading and will let you know how it goes. Funny, I was just answering a post on my forum where a member was raving about this feature.

Am I the only one who thinks Magnus's hack should be "HACK OF THE MONTH"????

[SVTOA]

PERFECT!!!! THANKS MAGNUS!!! Being able to edit as an admin will make it so I can help my members get the most from this feature.

[joeychgo]

Updated, works great!!!!!

What about being able to place the latest uploads on another page? i.e. forums main below the navbar?

[Ian Cunningham]

Looking forward to the next release - multiple garages will be great! You can be sure of a nice donation from me once I get my adsense cheque cashed!

Yes, multiple garages will definately be in the next release. Hopefully, it'll be one of the last releases for a while.. I really can't think of much more to add, lol. :)

[Envy-UK]

Have you found anything relating to the quality of the thumbnails?

I had a look at a few tutorials, but, sad to say, it's all over my head.

[magnus]

Increase Thumbnail Image Quality (v3.1.1 and older)


Have you found anything relating to the quality of the thumbnails?

Actually, yes.

In vbgarage.php:

FIND:

imagecopyresized($thumb['data'],$thumb['file'],0,0,0,0,$width,$thumb['height'],ImageSX($thumb['file']),ImageSY($thumb['file']));


REPLACE with:

imagecopyresampled($thumb['data'],$thumb['file'],0,0,0,0,$width,$thumb['height'],ImageSX($thumb['file']),ImageSY($thumb['file']));


That should increase thumbnail quality quite a bit. :)

[DaveLogic]

It would be nice,if possible to have the garages listed in alphabetical order instead of submitted order on the main page..

[Envy-UK]

It would be nice,if possible to have the garages listed in alphabetical order instead of submitted order on the main page..

Indeed. Would it also be possible to remove the '#' column?

Edit: Nevermind, I figured out.

[magnus]

It would be nice,if possible to have the garages listed in alphabetical order instead of submitted order on the main page..
Hrm. Being as only the userid is stored in the vbgarage_users database, it wouldn't be very simple, unfortunately.

[spence2]

For an alphabetical listing...how about adding a table to the members list with a conditional link to their garage (if one exists)?

[magnus]

For an alphabetical listing...how about adding a table to the members list with a conditional link to their garage (if one exists)?
You could do that, too. Or, you could add a 'username' field to the vbgarage_users table and just stuff the username in there as well. That way, it's all inclusive into a single table.

[magnus]

Alphabetize Garage List


Actually, I take that back. Yes, you CAN alphabatize your listing very easily using LEFT JOIN. :D

In vbgarage.php:

FIND:

SELECT * FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "vbgarage_users ORDER BY userid ASC LIMIT $pos,$perpage


REPLACE with:

SELECT vbgarage_users.*,user.username FROM vbgarage_users LEFT JOIN user ON vbgarage_users.userid = user.userid ORDER BY username ASC LIMIT $pos,$perpage


Done! :)

[White Knight]

nice upgrade.. im going to hold off untill the next one i think :) or when i get bored at work (damn busy day) nice job magnus

[gibgib]

My host is using "GD Lib 1.6.2 or higher" & as a result, all new image additions are not working (X) on the latest vb garage releases.

What would I need to do to take out all thumbnailing but keep the latest features you have added?

How hard would it be to add support to earlier versions of GD-Lib?

I am doubting the host will upgrade, & the current version is thumbnailling posting image attachments ok.

[SVTOA]

Increase Thumbnail Image Quality (v3.1.1 and older)




Actually, yes.

In vbgarage.php:

FIND:

imagecopyresized($thumb['data'],$thumb['file'],0,0,0,0,$width,$thumb['height'],ImageSX($thumb['file']),ImageSY($thumb['file']));


REPLACE with:

imagecopyresampled($thumb['data'],$thumb['file'],0,0,0,0,$width,$thumb['height'],ImageSX($thumb['file']),ImageSY($thumb['file']));


That should increase thumbnail quality quite a bit. :)

Yet another nice fix. :D Makes quite a difference!

[Ian Cunningham]

How is the multiple garage part coming on ;)

The image quality is much better now! Excellent!

[spence2]

Will members garage list, multiple entries and multiple comments be paginated?

With admin restrictions as to how many of each are shown per page?

Are they perhaps, already?

[BfB]

I need help with teh GD stuff ... pictures not working. The other GD stuff works (verficiation images works)

Please help, I'm retarted about some of this linux stuff

[Envy-UK]

You need GD 2.0 with this hack.

Right click on one of the red X's, then click properties. Type in the URL that it is looking for and click enter. Let me know what comes up.

Acctually there is no red "X" it seems to upload then doesnt display anything. Its a little frusturating.

[M@rkus]

so, how about changing the usergallery`s as an admin? and next question: how about uploading the pictures into a directory on my server, not into the db!?

I'm not an expert and can only go on problems that I've had in the past. Your best bet is to wait for Magnus. Sorry I couldn't be more of a help. :ermm:

[magnus]

Will members garage list, multiple entries and multiple comments be paginated?

With admin restrictions as to how many of each are shown per page?

Are they perhaps, already?

Garage List is already paginated. I'll tackle the rest when I come to them. :)

Upgrade to 3.1.1, it has admin editing capabilities. As stated before, I have no intention of storing images as files. This entire script revolves around SQL, changing it would mean re-writing the basic structure.

[Envy-UK]

My host is using "GD Lib 1.6.2 or higher" & as a result, all new image additions are not working (X) on the latest vb garage releases.

What would I need to do to take out all thumbnailing but keep the latest features you have added?

How hard would it be to add support to earlier versions of GD-Lib?

I am doubting the host will upgrade, & the current version is thumbnailling posting image attachments ok.

I could do with the following information too, Magnus.

[magnus]

I need help with teh GD stuff ... pictures not working. The other GD stuff works (verficiation images works)

Please help, I'm retarted about some of this linux stuff
First, be sure you're not uploading an image with a filesize greater than what's set in AdminCP. If you've checked that, and it still doesn't work, I'll need for you to create an account on your forum for me to use so I can test it. Just PM me with the details.

If you have to use GD1.6, you can change all instances of ImageCreateTrueColor to ImageCreate in vbgarage.php That will work, however, the thumbnails will look sort of weird. I am told that this can be corrected with additional settings, but I'm not too familiar with GD. The only other option, that I'm aware of, is it set it up like the first release of vBGarage. You'll need to change do=thumb to do=getimage and include width= within the <IMG> tags in the templates.

[Envy-UK]

Could you please post the code from imagebits to show the thumbnails via the do=getimage within the <IMG> tag, please?

I've been playing about with the original, without creating a back-up. :(

Perhaps you could also post the GD code, for when my host finally upgrades.

[Hialls]

Would it be ok if i released an addon for vbadvanced to have a random image from the garage shown?

Magnus - I have a user with 2 show cars. He asked if there was a more organized way for him to display them....Maybe where the display box could be divided in half if the user so chose? This way he could have two cars listed with the mods and so on.

Any chance you can add Imagemagick support for this hack magnus, not very complicated actually since its a command line driven program that is quite popular on many hosts. It also does GIF which of course later GD versions dont.

[blitzkrg]

i asked for IM support about 20 pages ago.. i think he said he'd look into it..
lets hope so.. i think getting GD2.0 to work on windows 2003 server is a problem.

As I stated before here (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=499642&postcount=349), if I get time, I may entertain the idea of toying with Imagemagick. However, at the moment, I'm more focused on getting what I currently have finished.

Anyone else is more than welcome to incorporate Imagemagick support, and I would be glad to include it with future releases.

[exTracT]

if someone has devised a way to add more sections than just the one text area, that would be great.

even tho i know its not technically the 'right' way to design a DB, id rather concat them all together and post it into the DB than add a new column for each one in the db. the reason, is so that i wouldnt have to alter the table to add more sections at a later point.

ie: rather than adding to vbgarage_users (userid, year, make, model, performance, appearance, etc, lastactivity)
just leave it as vbgarage_users(userid, year, make, model, text), concat everything into one text and add it.

then again, its not like it would be hard to add columns for these things.

not sure which direction to go...comments?

magnus awesome hack.

I'm sorry if this has already been answered, I searched and couldnt find anything, probably because its such an easy question and any moron should already know but since im apparently stupider than the average moron I guess I'm going to ask:

No, this isn't a stupid question. This ability will be automated in the next release, as it will have a toggle in the AdminCP. However, for the time being:

In vbgarage.php:

FIND:

$data['text'] = parse_bbcode2($data['text'],'0','0','1','1');


REPLACE with:

$data['text'] = parse_bbcode2($data['text'],'1','0','1','1');

[magnus]

So.. last question.. how can i deny the use of my [BIMG]-code?
M@rkus, in order to disabled , you would need to disable BBCode altogether. There's no way to specify individual codes to allow/disallow. In order to disable BBCode, do the following.

In [b]vbgarage.php

FIND:

$data['text'] = parse_bbcode2($data['text'],'0','0','1','1');


REPLACE with:

$data['text'] = parse_bbcode2($data['text'],'0','0','1','0');

It also looks like you have a style on your forum that has none of the VBGARAGE templates installed...
Are you sure you didn't place the vbgarage.php file in your admincp directory by mistake?

[SVTOA]

Well then something appears to be fubared with your directory structure.
If the file is there, it should do something when called up in the browser, even if that something is to show a "no permissions" error.

Did you properly extract the ZIP files?

Yep, I'm positive its in the right place, here I'll attach a screenshot (I use pcanywhere to attach to my server.) Anywase if you look in the address bar you'll see the forum folder, and at the bottom is the VBgarage.php file.

hmm....confusing

*bangs head on wall* LOL....thanks you guys, I just figured it out by your last post! The file had a security thing on it, I had to set it to EVERYONE!

crap another error! :tired:

It won't let me upload pictures. Theirs a box that says upload pictures. but now upload button, do I have to install this my self or is it messed up?

No, v3.0.1 has no edit/delete support. v3.1.0 was the first version with delete functions. However, v3.1.1 (latest) has delete AND edit functions. I highly suggest upgrading. :)

Well, here's a screenshot of the multiple cars progress. I've basicially been rewriting from the ground up, optimizing here and there, adding more security precautions, etc..

Unfortunately, so far it's looking like either you're going to need to do some manual editing to each user's garage, as well as each image, in the MySQL Database, or you're going to need to re-install. Quite a few things have had to be modified/added for this upgrade.

I'll know more for sure soon, though.

oh if we could avoid having to make the members re-upload ----- please do so........

[SVTBlackLight01]

The pics are basically attachments, right? I believe attachments are stored in the database.

Although, while you are rewriting everything, the option to store the mages in a file may make gallery (PhotoPost) integration easier. Just an idea.


I have to say what a great job you have done on this. It has turned out to be more than anything I had imagined, and just keeps getting better. :up:

[joeychgo]

I think there is one addition that hasnt been requested magnus...

Maybe there could be a button where when the user clicks it, a little man with a camera runs out or the back of the CPU, runs outside, takes ad quality pics of the user's car, then runs back to the computer and uploads them automatically.

Shouldnt be harder then making a littleman.php file and a few queries right?

[spence2]

Magnus,

One of the great things about this hack is its versatility. Presently, I am thinking of using this as a hack where photos may be secondary to the actual entry. Some users may have them, some not...like icing on the cake if they do.

So, if you develop a vb...garage...gallery would you consider making that a hack of its own? To preserve the versatility of this hack as it now stands? Or am I misunderstanding your notion entirely?

[Rick Sample]

Sorry to bother you so guys so much about this hack, but its a cool hack, so I gotta have it perfect on my site:

Anywase I have the following ?'s

1. I'm still having trouble changing VBgarage text into Members Rides. Everytime I edit something in navbar, it gives me an error message, so I'm not sure if i'm editing the right thing or not!

2. like on top of the garage page or bottom is their a way to add a link so members can edit their garage, many don't know you do it though User control panel. If they see an "edit your car" button, their more likely to add their car!

3. what is last activity? is it just when they last updated or the last time they were online? mine keeps saying last activity was yesterday, and I've been online all day. just wondering :)

Thanks for your help guys, :) :) :)

Sorry to bother you so guys so much about this hack, but its a cool hack, so I gotta have it perfect on my site:

Anywase I have the following ?'s

1. I'm still having trouble changing VBgarage text into Members Rides. Everytime I edit something in navbar, it gives me an error message, so I'm not sure if i'm editing the right thing or not!

1. You have to edit the PHRASE for the navbar. Search in PHRASES for "vbgarage" and edit the translation to say "Members Rides"

2.Look in the template "USERCP_SHELL" for this:

<if condition="$permissions['genericpermissions'] & CANVBGARAGE">
<tr>
<td class="$navclass[options]" nowrap="nowrap"><a class="smallfont" href="vbgarage.php?$session[sessionurl]do=editgarage">$vbphrase[vbgarage_edit]</a></td>
</tr>
</if>

Edit as needed and insert into SHOWGARGE template where you want it to display.


3. Last activity refers to the last edit made to that Garage.

Hope this helps.

Thanks, I got everything, but how do I find the showgarage template? I searched the templates and phrases for showgarage, and came up empty. any suggestions?

[SVTOA]

Sorry, that should be "vbgarage_viewgarage" not "showgarage"

I had this fine on my board for a couple days

then today i updated to the newest version of vb

installed the link hack and just changed a few other things

the actual vb garage is fine

but admin vb garage is missing from the admin cp.

its a problem because I need to change user permissions so that everyone can look at the vb garage.
its currently set for admin only.

someone help me out :(

I even donated 10 bux to the writer cause this is a cool hack :)

edit:
i think a few things got reset.
i added vb garage to the user group php file

but i get a sql error;
mysql error: Unknown column 'canvbgarage' in 'field list'

mysql error number: 1054

should i have a fresh re-install done tomorrow?

I'm trying to add a PM this Member link below the Photo in Vbgarage_viewgarage..I've taken this code from MEMINFO but it doesn't seem to work..

<if condition="$userinfo['pm']">
<tr>
<td>
$vbphrase[private_message]:<br />
<a href="private.php?$session[sessionurl]do=newpm&amp;u=$userinfo[userid]"><phrase 1="$userinfo[username]">$vbphrase[send_private_message_to_x]</phrase></a>
</td>
</tr>
</if>

Any ideas???

[DaveLogic]

Didn't mean to cross post this...Sorry..I thought I'd posted it in the wrong section..

Magnus,

One of the great things about this hack is its versatility. Presently, I am thinking of using this as a hack where photos may be secondary to the actual entry. Some users may have them, some not...like icing on the cake if they do.

So, if you develop a vb...garage...gallery would you consider making that a hack of its own? To preserve the versatility of this hack as it now stands? Or am I misunderstanding your notion entirely?
The whole goal of this hack is to be versatile. No worries there. :)

Most likely a typo, a couple people have gotten that error and each time it turns out they made a typo. Go over each edit, and verify each character, each closing ;. Make sure your ADDED lines rather than REPLACED them where applicable.

What's not working? You get an error, or the link doesn't show up? If it's a matter of not seeing the link, chances are you need to enable the phrase group in the vbgarage.php file. Find out what phrase group the phrase send_private_message_to_x is in.

[Ian Cunningham]

Like I've said over and over. It's all template and phrase driven. Make it say whatever you want.

See v3.2.0 in action @ http://www.sffba.net/forum/vbgarage.php?do=list

V3.2.0 looks excellent!!! Is it in stable release form now?

[Skipsoutdoors]

Thanks Magnus.

I just converted over to v-3 and this was the first thing I installed on it. I was using the v-2 version. Some tweaking yet to do, but I'll figure it out eventually. It made a dandy trophy room.

I've changed this in vbgarage.php

// get special phrase groups
$phrasegroups = array('user','global');

to include Global phrases

The link is showing up but not adding the userID i.e

http://www.my_test_site.com/forums/private.php?do=newpm&u=

This also occurs for send Email to....

The global phrase group is included by default, there's no reason to add it to the $phrasegroups(); array. Also, what variable are you using for the userid? If you're calling this in vbgarage_viewgarage template, you'll need to use $data[userid]

[SVTOA]

Just letting everyone know, I have installed this on another site with vb 3.0.1 and it works great. (If this has been mentioned already, sorry!, 30-something pages here)

[Rick Sample]

One more question...LOL

I have VBgarage installed and it would be nice to have 2 of them. 1 for members cars and one for my Pin-Up girls. Is this possible? Can I have 2 of them and users can both add vehicles and on a seprate page, add their pics?

You know like on the main nav bar have VBgarage then a title like pin-up girls. Then in the User CP have the same thing: edit Vbgarage edit you pics. or something like that. It would be cool if this would be possible.
