[rockergrrl]

Awesome!!

I'm installing it right now!
I'll let you know if there are any problems.

[DarkJediKiller]

Whoa, looks good! ^_^ Nice job

[Clb]

i would like to setup it ;)

PS. where is the download link...? :(

[rockergrrl]

I just tried installing.

And I got this error:
Parse error: parse error in /home/cv/public_html/forums/admincp/install_vbgarage.php on line 57

That line is:
<td class="tcat" colspan="2"><b>$bbuserinfo[username]'s $vbphrase[vbgarage]</b></td>


Suggestions?

[rockergrrl]

Looks like he took it off for the time being?

[magnus]

I'm an idiot. I forgot to include the correct .ZIP. All is fixed. :)

[rockergrrl]

The /includes/init.php file edit would be:

Find:
#######################
'caneditownusernotes' => 131072
#######################

REPLACE with:
#######################
'caneditownusernotes' => 131072,
// START VBGARAGE HACK
'canvbgarage' => 262144,
// END VBGARAGE HACK
#######################


You forgot to add a , at the end of 262144

[milkmycow]

just a suggestions.. maybe instead of just a big text box, why not have diff inputs for wheels/engine/etc that automatically makes a list? then an extra text box?

[Clb]

i installed it easily but when i go to let each usergroup USE the vBGarage i shows that there is a slight problem at ths SQL... does that happened to anyone else?

[rockergrrl]

I'm getting the same errors when I try and edit usergroup permissions.

[Rampag33]

I seriously like this too bad my site don't have enough people with fancy cars or this would be great

[ImportPassion]

This is awesome. GOtta get my vb3 running and ready!

Any chance of this getting integrated with Photopost? Instead of uploading images it would show thumbs you currently have and you select from those pics.

That would be cool for ppl with Photopost like me. ;)

[Clb]

is there any solution for the problem with the SQL while editing USERGROUPS...?

[dede1]

put This In Beta Testing 1st Mate!! ! !

[Clb]

worked for me!!

it was my mistake... :(

[Gizmo]

Thanx for your work, it's an original hack. I will translate it in french. :)

[corsacrazy]

any one got a live demo ?

[White Knight]

just a suggestions.. maybe instead of just a big text box, why not have diff inputs for wheels/engine/etc that automatically makes a list? then an extra text box?

Yup.. I agree..

Your snapshot looks great.. maybe have it so people can just enter that information and it will show up just like that.

Looks good though.. keep up the good work

[gibgib]

Can't wait to try this :)

Just downloaded but I'll have to install it tonight (aus time).

Thankyou!

[dede1]

I have this SQL error have also still someone?

[White Knight]

I have it running on my dec site no problem.

Suggestion.. i know its nice to have the Powered By:

however how about using this space for a direct link to edit your own garage?
and maybe then adding the powered by underneath it :)

[Red Blaze]

Well, you can put it on your own editing the templates, no?

I modified mine the way I'd like it, (yes, the powered by thing is there :p). Working great for me.

* Red Blaze clicks install :)

Ohhh you little fooker.. :).. why didnt i think of that :).. so used to hacking everything..

Ill have to take a look see and edit some stuff :)

No, there should be no , (comma) after 262144.

[magnus]

Thanx for your work, it's an original hack. I will translate it in french. :)
Please read the vbgarage_readme.txt file. Most specifically:

# - No, you may NOT translate/release this hack. Do not ask. #

I made the system work off phrases. People need to learn to use them.

[magnus]

any one got a live demo ?
Here is a temporary demo: http://www.sffba.net/forum/vbgarage.php

Yup. The beauty of templates. This is all template driven, you can make it look however you like. :)

[magnus]

I'm getting the same errors when I try and edit usergroup permissions.
Perhaps Clb could tell you what he did. He seems to have fixed the problem, and according to him, it was a mistake on his part.

[rockergrrl]

No, there should be no , (comma) after 262144.
I tried that, and I got errors...

When I added a comma, it worked fine.

[magnus]

Now *that* is weird.. unless of course you've modified the init.php with another hack. This hack assumes that it's an unhacked init.php. The canvbgarage line should be the last line in that array, if not, then you'll have to modify the 262144 as well.

what i did wrong was that i removed the 'caneditownusernotes' => 131072 part and i simply replaced it with 'canvbgarage' => 262144 which was wrong...

i should add it after that and not replace it ;)

Init.php is unhacked for me..

The clean init.php file has this 'canseedelnotice' => 262144

So having 'canvbgarage' => 262144, just wouldn't work

what should it be then?

Bah.... Its been one of those days.... (Never try and hack of vBulletin when you have kids screaming)

now it works ;)

[dede1]

@magnus

I thank you it run error free

[magnus]

Glad to hear you both got it working. ;)

For those who are playing at home, I'm working on adding user comments to the pages as well.. this turned out to be easier than I thought, so I may release it as an add-on. :)

[magnus]

dede1,

I checked out your site. One note, you might want to add a space to the end of your vbgarage_imagebits template. It will wrap the pictures, rather than having them all in a single line.

Just, literally, add a space to the end, that's it. :)

[dede1]

Like I said above, edit your vbgarage_imagebits template, go to the end of the last line, and press the spacebar, leaving a space at the end. Then, click save. That's it! :)

[dede1]

Thanks :)

[Envy-UK]

I've installed everything, it appeared to be fine.

However, when vbgarage.php is called (both by /vbgarage.php?do=list & vbgarage.php), I end up with a blank screen.

Anyone?

You're missing templates. Check your templates list, you should have the following:

vbgarage_editgarage
vbgarage_editimagebits
vbgarage_imagebits
vbgarage_listbits
vbgarage_listgarage
vbgarage_popup
vbgarage_viewgarage

If they all exist, check to make sure there is data inside. :)

[corsacrazy]

are pics thumnailed automatically?

[magnus]

are pics thumnailed automatically?
No, there's no "thumbnails". The pictures are simply displayed using "width=" tags. Once I figure out exactly how GD works, I'll be adding that so it will create actual thumbnails.

[RaceJunkies]

I installed everything but I don't see any of the options of vbgarage in the UserCP...

[gmarik]

Great, are the pictures generated by thumbs?

[Envy-UK]

You're missing templates. Check your templates list, you should have the following:

vbgarage_editgarage
vbgarage_editimagebits
vbgarage_imagebits
vbgarage_listbits
vbgarage_listgarage

If they all exist, check to make sure there is data inside. :)

The install script only appears to add these templates to the initial style ID, however, I'm using another as default.

"New templates added to styleid 1", can I change this to install to both style ID's?

Edit: Templates were added to my second style manually.

Quick question, is there any way to remove the "text" aspects from vbgarage.php?do=editgarage and vbgarage.php?do=view&id=x?

I'm looking to just have the images on the page.

[esoin]

I got it working! thanks
However
How can i change "Make:" into "Color:" ?

[magnus]

I installed everything but I don't see any of the options of vbgarage in the UserCP...
There are no options in the UserCP. All the options are under the "Usergroup" options.

[Ian Cunningham]

No, there's no "thumbnails". The pictures are simply displayed using "width=" tags. Once I figure out exactly how GD works, I'll be adding that so it will create actual thumbnails.

I think VB has a function to do this automatially? It shouldn't be too hard to add (I think!), so I might have a go at it later and send you the code if I can do it :)

That should do the trick. :)

[magnus]

I got it working! thanks
However
How can i change "Make:" into "Color:" ?
Edit the phrases. This is all template/phrase driven.

$vbphrase[vbgarage_year] = "Year"
$vbphrase[vbgarage_make] = "Make"
$vbphrase[vbgarage_model] = "Model"

etc ..

Just go into Phrase Manager, it's all there. :)

[magnus]

I think VB has a function to do this automatially? It shouldn't be too hard to add (I think!), so I might have a go at it later and send you the code if I can do it :)
Have at it, that would be great. ;)

[Ian Cunningham]

Have at it, that would be great. ;)
I have just had a look at the code, and I'm not sure how to do it after all - I thought you were using the vbulletin attachments system! doh :(

sorry

[RaceJunkies]

There are no options in the UserCP. All the options are under the "Usergroup" options.

Magnus I was missing editing and saving something it the Phrase Manager...
Everything works perfect now...

Great Hack! ;)

No problem. I've got my little GD howto guide, and once I figure it out completely, I'll be implementing it. :)

*NOTE: Those who donate are explicitly granted permission to remove the "Powered by" information from the vBGarage footer.

Version History
v3 - Initial release. Let's hope I don't have alot of entries here. :)

Planned Features
- Admin control. Ability to delete/modify user's garages.
- Multiple entries per user.

If you use this, please click https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/ (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/vborg_miscactions.php?do=installhack&threadid=63681)
When a user uses the WYSIWYG editor, do you still get the standard editor with no toolbar?
If so, will it be included in future versions?

[Floris]

Will a future version also include an option for users to add comments to that page (maybe show the last x comments with a link to 'all comments'. (kind of like usernotes used for that page). would be cool.

Y'know, I never thought about that.. I like that idea. So, yes, that will be included in the next release. :)

Yes, this is already in the works. In fact, I'm almost finished with it.

[magnus]

A little tweak I did for my forums, which some of you may find nifty was instead of having text input fields, I made it all drop down. See screenshot:

Sure, here's the (basic) code -- you'll need to modify it, of course, to suit your needs. Here is the code for the Year dropdown:

In VBGARAGE_EDITGARAGE:

Find:

<input type="text" class="bginput" name="year" size="4" maxlength="4" value="$data[year]" />


REPLACE with:

<select name="year">
<option <if condition="$data[year]==2002"> selected</if>>2002</option>
<option <if condition="$data[year]==2001"> selected</if>>2001</option>
<option <if condition="$data[year]==2000"> selected</if>>2000</option>

etc ..

</select>


You can obviously use this for the other fields as well, just be sure the <select name="foo"> variable matches the <input name="foo"> variable you're replacing.

[Ian Cunningham]

I'm really looking forward to future versions of this! It looks like its going to be good :)

Thumbnails would really stand out, I'll keep looking for a way to get them working :)

NICE! it worked! Thanks a load! This is going to work very well in my Go-Ped Scooter Forum.

[magnus]

Good news.. GD support is finished.. and it works. ;) Gimmie a few minutes to package it all up, and it will be ready to download.

[Action-N]

This was just the feature I needed for my forums, thanks. I did find some areas that need improvment, like use of image thumbnails. That's the biggy, then it would be nice to have more specific fields. This would help give the garages a more standard look instead of lteeting the user just add whatever to the text field.

I have already done this for myself, but just thought you might want to add some things to your "Features Planned" list. Below is a direct link to my garage, becuase it's eaiser than posting a screenshot. I have set it up to use the MultipleProfilePictures hack so images are thumbnailed. I reset the size for 250 wide, which is controlled in message attacthment options. Then I added more fields that I think are relevent to a vehicle profile. I still plan to add more features for my particular vbGarage. Thanks again for this hack

My vbGarage (http://www.action-host.com/forum/vbgarage.php?do=view&id=1)

[magnus]

v3.0 -> v3.0.1 UPGRADE INSTRUCTIONS (enable GD-Lib support!)

1. Download the vbgarage301.zip from the first post (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=498255&postcount=1), and upload the new vbgarage.php to your forum ROOT directory, overwriting the old one.


2. Edit the vbgarage_editimagebits TEMPLATE:

REPLACE with:
(be sure to leave a SPACE after the closing </td>)

<td class="alt2" valign="bottom"><img src="$vboptions[bburl]/vbgarage.php?do=thumb&amp;width=100&amp;id=$image[vbgarageid]" alt="$image[name]" /><br />
<center><input type="checkbox" name="delete$image[vbgarageid]">$vbphrase[delete]</center>
</td>

3. Edit the vbgarage_imagebits TEMPLATE:

REPLACE with:
(be sure to leave a SPACE after the closing </a>)

<a style="cursor:pointer; cursor-hand" href="vbgarage.php?do=popup&amp;image=$vboptions[bburl]/vbgarage.php?do=getimage&amp;id=$image[vbgarageid]" onclick="PopupPic(this.href); return false;" target="_blank"><img src="$vboptions[bburl]/vbgarage.php?do=thumb&amp;width=175&amp;id=$image[vbgarageid]" alt="$image[name]" border="0" /></a>

Scott, looks real good! I tried to make it as configurable as possible, so people, like yourself, could tune it to look how you like.

The layouts will vary from board to board, I'm sure, because many people intend to use this for non-automotive purposes. So, developing a strict automotive layout would sort of make it more difficult for other genres. With the generic text file, people can more-or-less enter whatever they desire, or, take it upon themselves to hack it up however they feel.

I'm sure people would love it if you could post your modifications for the rest of the board. Of course, that's up to you. ;)

GD-Lib support has been added, as it's just been released. You can modify the thumbnail size by editing the "width=" variable sent in the vbgarage_imagebits & vbgarage_editimagebits templates.

I can't wait until all features are properly tested, extended and included.
Thank you for replying to my posts so quickly and I will keep my eyes out for version 1.x or even 2.x when it looks a bit more stable and organized. (not really complaining right though, just meaning that it feels like it is still in development).

Yup. So far, it's stable. Of course, only time will tell. As for being in development, well, I think it'll more or less be that way forever.. I can see myself adding new things to this constantly. :)

how do i get this to work with php4?

[magnus]

how do i get this to work with php4?
This was designed on PHP Version 4.3.5. Are you having problems?

[esoin]

How can I make it so that before they hit "submit", it says that AT LEAST ONE attached photo is required? I'm not very fimiliar with coding in php, so if anyone can help me, that'd be great.

Also, will there be sorting functions in the display mode?

Limit attachments?

Limit attachment size?

Thanks again

In vbgarage.php:

FIND:

if (empty($year) OR empty($make) OR empty($model))
{


REPLACE with:

if (empty($year) OR empty($make) OR empty($model) OR empty($_FILES['src']['tmp_name'])
{


That should do it. ;)

Also, will there be sorting functions in the display mode? Thanks again
You bet'cha. ;)

[Envy-UK]

I've just made the update, however, although thumbnails do display, when clicked, I get the dreaded red 'X'.

Secondly, the username of the garage has gone completely, both from list and view.

[magnus]

Limit attachments?

Limit attachment size?

Thanks again

You can already limit attachments. Edit the $vbgarage_total_images variable in vbgarage.php. It's currently set to 6. This will eventually be an AdminCP option.

Attachment size will be added soon, too.

[Envy-UK]

Apart from the images, when clicked, still show up as red X's. :(

[magnus]

Hrm, that has to be template related. Highlight an image, and show me the link it's trying to go to. Look in the status bar at the bottom of your browser (if you're using IE).

It *should* be:

http://url/vbgarage.php?do=popup&image=http://url/vbgarage.php?do=getimage&id={x}

[Envy-UK]

It's linked to the following:

/vbgarage.php?do=popup&image=http://www.envy-uk.co.uk/vbgarage.php?do=thumb&width=175&id=12

My fault! Typo in my previous upgrade post. This is the correct instruction (I've gone ahead and updated the previous post, too):

[magnus]

Glad I could help. :)

That's the problem with GD1.6. You could use ImageCreate, but the thumbnail colors will be all whacked out. Only GD 2.0+ supports ImageCreateTrueColor.

Figures. There are a few 'workarounds', but they're sort of messy. If you can't get it upgraded, let me know, I'll code the workaround. :)

I'll take a closer look tomorrow.

Thank you again for the first class support. :D

Yup. That's the #1 most requested feature. I've got a preliminary design of it, but before I release it, I'd like to make sure the current version is stable. Expect it soon, though. ;)

I need to get the AdminCP interface up first, though.. I hate requiring the end user to edit the .PHP file to make a configuration change.

[joeychgo]

I just installed the new version - I added a car, and my username isn't listed at all under username ??

whats wrong? I just dl'd the zip an hour ago...?

Also -- one feature that would be great would be if I could assign a different number of images for each user group

Another that would be great would be some way to siplay a few random images on the forums page..

It looks fantastic Magnus --- thank you so much for this

Download the latest .ZIP. Replace the vbgarage.php file. It was a typo on my part.

Just redownload it.

That's what I had to do, and it worked fine.

[joeychgo]

Didnt realize he had revised it that quik...it worked.

One think I just noticed, I just tried to upload a large pic --- 1.7meg -- it tooka long time to upload - then gave no warning that the upload was unsucessful -- when I resized the pic to 65kb, it uploaded fine. There should be some kind of error warning shouldnt there?

Yea, it craps out on large images sometimes. That's more of a PHP limitation. I'll see what I can do.

[joeychgo]

Is there a file size limit? I'll just add a note explaining this where it says how many images the user is limited to...

no i havent tried to install it yet, but my forum uses the php4 extension rather than the regular php extension, and i was just curious if i had to change anything before i installed it, sorry for the confusion..

[Action-N]

I just upgraded with no problems, just had to revert back to the original template code. Yes that is so much better now with thumbnail support. Just had to remember to reupload the pictures. Now that I only have to add custom fields I could probably work towards a auto specific hack for this.

I found that you didn't add "where are they?" for vB Garage in the functions_online.php.

I also started making a htl file for this, but maybe you should be the one to make one magnus.

[joeychgo]

Is it me or are there no admin controls for this? This is important -- for example....if someone uploads an inappropriate image, how do I delete it?

[blitzkrg]

I cant get this to work at all.
i get this error running the install script
mysql error: You have an error in your SQL syntax near ';
' at line 9
i see others have as well.
i tried to add everything by hand, and it seems to have taken then with phpmyadmin.
but still no luck.
when i go to usercp, i dont see anything relating to vbgarage, and when i go into user groups to turn on permissions, the box it blank, i only have a yes/no opt. even if i select yes and save, nothing shows up in the user cp..

help?

You didn't follow the instructions completely. Read step 5 in the vbgarage_readme.txt.

5. In the ADMINCP, under Languages & Phrases -> Phrase Manager, click "Edit" on any random phrase, then click Save. You do not need to make any modifications. This is to update the phrases database to accept the phrases added during the automated install. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT! :)

[magnus]

Is it me or are there no admin controls for this? This is important -- for example....if someone uploads an inappropriate image, how do I delete it?
As stated before, this is all being added. It's not that it's been "forgotten", it's just being slated for a later release. Expect it very soon.

[magnus]

I found that you didn't add "where are they?" for vB Garage in the functions_online.php.
Yup. I tried to keep this first release to as few file edits as possible. The next version will be full blown. Options, etc..

I also started making a htl file for this, but maybe you should be the one to make one magnus.
I don't support the HTL. I did at one point, but it's not really my cup of tea. You're more than welcome to create an HTL if you desire.

[joeychgo]

Ohh ok lol I thought I was missing something..........

[SVTBlackLight01]

This is awesome. GOtta get my vb3 running and ready!

Any chance of this getting integrated with Photopost? Instead of uploading images it would show thumbs you currently have and you select from those pics.

That would be cool for ppl with Photopost like me. ;)

Anymore thought on this?

[blitzkrg]

You didn't follow the instructions completely. Read step 5 in the vbgarage_readme.txt.

i did read them.. i did that step 3 times just to make sure.

[magnus]

Anymore thought on this?
Since I don't own/use Photopost, I don't see myself working on Photopost integration. Unless someone is going to buy me a license, that project will have to be a 3rd Party Add-On. ;)

[magnus]

i did read them.. i did that step 3 times just to make sure.
If you're not seeing anything, and you've done step 5, then you haven't inserted all the phrases. Make sure you've run all of these:

Sorry. I guess it wasn't really a request; just wondering if anyone had given it any thought as a possible "a 3rd Party Add-On"

Great job on this, BTW. It's definately on my list after I upgrade to vb3. :)

[ImportPassion]

Since I don't own/use Photopost, I don't see myself working on Photopost integration. Unless someone is going to buy me a license, that project will have to be a 3rd Party Add-On. ;)
I will prolly tackle it when I get my vb3 going. waiting for vbportal to be ready. :ermm:

Also, is this all searchable from members search? Like, say I want to find someone with a kaminari body kit, i can search for kaminari?

I may, however, do a Coppermine add-on. If I do, I'm sure it could be easily modified to accomodate PhotoPost.

At the moment? No. I'll look into search capabilities.

hey magnus,

Just curious why you didn't go the route of using the profile options and just displaying them on a new page? This way they can be made searchable, they can have any type of form element, make them required or not etc.
Just curious.

Because, then I'm limited by those same options. This way, I'm free to do just about anything with no limitations.

[TheCaver]

I had the same SQL errors on install.

What I had to do was open the install file and insert the SQL commands for creating the tables manually WITHOUT the . TABLE PREFIX . part....Thats whats screwing it up.

If you want, you could probably delete the table prefix stuff (assuming that your vb install does not require prefixes) and resave the file, then run it again.....Should work fine then.....

Hope it helps........It's a cool board add on, can't wait for further updates....

[SVTOA]

Magnus I think you did a great job with this, take a bow! I am making some customizations to my copy, I have photopost like another member mentioned in this thread, I have a code for the postbit template that generates a link to the indivudual member's gallery, I think I can import that into the "view_vbgarage" template. I also think it should be pretty easy to make this support multiple vehciles. I already have mine so I can list two.

Nice work man!

[SVTOA]

I'm liking this hack more and more, make sure you claim the money I sent you. ;)

[SVTOA]

I have some suggetions I wish to add- (sorry had WAY to much Starbucks tonight!)

It would be REALLY cool to have a link in the member's profile to his individual Garage page as a conditional statement- If the member has created one, then when someone views his/her profile, there is a link to that member's garage. I suppose one can add a custom user profile field for "MY VB GARAGE" and require the member to paste the link into it, but it should not be too hard to make that an automatic process...

With regard to PHOTOPOST, I edited the titlebar that says "PHOTOS" to say "(also check my Photopost gallery for more pix of my cars!)"

This is the postbit code that generates a automatic link to a member's gallery:

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

If your Photopost is not integrated with your VB3 database, then you must edit the path to properly reflect what directory your PHOTOPOST files are located in.

[SVTOA]

Heheh!! Ok, all you really have to do with VB3 is place a link in your own signature to your VBGARAGE and then when someone views your profile, it shows up in the area that displays your signature. ;)

[SVTOA]

And here is another nice addition for those who have installed this- place this code in your POSTBIT or POSTBIT_LEGACY template and it will automatically create a link to that member's garage. This can also be added to the user profile template.

If anyone wants to edit it to make it conditional (will only display if they have a garage page) please do so!

<!-- added garage code here --><a href="http://www.yourwebsite.com/vbulletin/vbgarage.php?do=view&id=$userinfo[userid]"><smallfont>View my VbGarage</smallfont></a>
<!-- end garage code-->

[Envy-UK]

Just a couple of suggestions for future releases (as if you've not had enough already):

Firstly, I'd love for it to be able to post these images in threads with the [img] tags, as, at the moment, that's not possible.

Secondly, it would be nice to have some sort of either drop down or pop-up thumbnails that have been uploaded by a specific user available to them when posting in the forum, a click on one of these thumbnails would lead to the inserting of the [img] code into the editor.

Also, I use the following if statement in the MEMBERINFO template:

<if condition="$post['rank']"><td><strong><a href="/vbgarage.php?do=view&id=$post[userid]"><IMG SRC="http://www.envy-uk.co.uk/vb3bluesaint/buttons/garage_big.gif" BORDER="0"></a></td>
<else /><td><strong>This feature is only available to platinum members. <br><br>Further information regarding this membership can be found by clicking <a href="http://www.envy-uk.co.uk/subscriptions.php?">here.</a></strong></td></if>

See attached image for outcome. Obviously, they are the results in both cases.

I also use the following code in the user ranks, of those with permissions to upload, which acts as the if statement:

<a href="/vbgarage.php?do=view&id=$post[userid]">View Garage</a>

Yes, I just changed the code to fit this hack.

Thank you, though.

[magnus]

Firstly, I'd love for it to be able to post these images in threads with the [img] tags, as, at the moment, that's not possible.
Actually, you can get around this.. create a new BBCODE, (you can of course name this whatever you like), and have it use the HTML:

<a href="$vboptions[bburl]/vbgarage.php?do=getimage&amp;id={param}"><img src="$vboptions[bburl]/vbgarage.php?do=thumb&amp;width=100&amp;id={param}" border=0 /></a>


This will allow the user to insert: [car]{picture id} in a thread, which will be replaced with a thumbnail of that id as well as a link to the original size.

Secondly, it would be nice to have some sort of either drop down or pop-up thumbnails that have been uploaded by a specific user available to them when posting in the forum, a click on one of these thumbnails would lead to the inserting of the [img] code into the editor.
Hrm.. this could get messy in the long run. I'll see if there's an efficient way to implement that.

[SVTOA]

Well, I stayed up to the weeeee hours last night tweaking this and my members love it. We now have it so that there are automatic links to the member's Garage in the user profile and the postbit area.

It looks like with very little changes, this could be changed to something like "Member's Personal Pages" that would fit in with any website theme.

Once again, Great Job Magnus!!

[joeychgo]

Like I said before, I would like to see a way to display a few random pics on other pages, and maybe the newest pics posted on the garage page itself...

Otherwise, im loving this.

[Envy-UK]

Are you running GD 2.0 on your server? (Check your /admincp/index.php?do=phpinfo and find the GD heading)

That's my problem at the moment.

[White Knight]

Blah stupid me.. just relized I am running Imagemagik.. lol.. I was running GD on my old box.. blah.. i knew something was bunked :)

[spence2]

In your "to-do" list you say:

Planned Features
- Admin control. Ability to delete/modify user's garages.
- Multiple entries per user.

So, am I correct in assuming that currently users can only have one entry?

I'm very excited about this hack and thank you so much for your generosity in sharing it with everyone!

When you add comments, ability for users to have multiple entries and pagination for the entries pages then you have a great multi-purpose hack! One that could be used as an "articles" or "journals" hack as well...and, trust me, there is a huge demand for this! :)

[corsacrazy]

possible to tidy up the image quality? at the moment imagecreatetruecolor is stil making images blurry unless that is the width tag doing that?

[SVTOA]

How did you manage to do this? :)

Ian, look back in this thread, I included the code for POSTBIT/POSTBIT_LEGACY and USERINFO. It's really quite easy, just edit the paths to reflect your directory structure.

I have attached some screenshots of how these look on my board:

[White Knight]

Thanks for the quick template changes SVTOA.. good idea..

[SVTOA]

No problem White Knight!

I just had another idea- I also use Evil LS1's AWESOME Timeslip databse hack. I think I can edit the Garage to add those profile fields to the display page, and only if a member has filled them out. I think that would make this thing super cool. :D

[magnus]

Yea, I was planning on maybe doing that later.. but I figured I'd get out the priority stuff first. Although, if someone else wants to do it -- please, by all means. I'll post a link to the modifications in the first post.

On that note, User Comments are finished/tested/ready for release. I'm just tweaking a few things, and adding a couple other requested features. Expect an upgrade sometime today. :)

Sure would be and something I was going to add soon anyways. I just know I have to modify the code for sportbikes a little bit :)

But just like the vbGarage it just takes a little template fixing and database changing :)

But yes that timeslip hack would be very nice!

so it looks like this

or like this

like this

That way everything is clean looking.

Then leave the box so people can add whatever they want

these are just ideas

I was gonna say Photopost.
I think us users with photopost this is getting redundant. This is of course great work, but I think I may do an addon for Photopost to be able to add a page with the cars stats.

Keep it going tho, it's about time we got something like this.

Sure, you can simply not perform the template edit that makes them available.

I don't think it's redundant al all, because our photopost is also quite customized, and these two work together very nice! In my own "Garage" I have linked to my Photopost Dyno Sheet and best Timeslip image, as we have those as PP cats.

It's all good!

As I've stated a number of times, it's designed to be configurable. Very few people are going to want the same settings I use, or you use, etc.. So, make it unique. That's why this is template/phrase driven. Make it how you want. :)

Yeah, I already asked about that. He is right, not everyone will want to use this just for automotive. Would be nice if in admin you could add custom fields though. Well just wanted to tell you I am working on building a custom "Automotive" version for myself. I think he'll let me release it as a add-on hack when I'm done. Right now I'm working on adding the "vB Garage" to the users' profile. Check out my garage an see if you have any suggestions for an auto only garage.

[SVTBlackLight01]

For photopost, I have an idea. How about some text fields where users can post the URL of their photos they want displayed in the garage? That way they only have to upload photos once (in the gallery), and they can choose which ones they wany displayed (as opposedd to just having a script pull random pics from the gallery).

Download the vbgarage310.zip from the first post, extract vbgarage.php and overwrite your exsiting one with the new version.

[magnus]

When I run the upgrade file, it only updates the initial style ID templates, could I change this to update, in my example, style ID 5?
Yes. Edit the upgrade_vbgarage310.php:

FIND:

$styleid=$vboptions['styleid'];


Change $vboptions['styleid']; to whatever styleid you want to update.

[magnus]

instructions say

Upload "vbgarage.php" to your forum ROOT directory, overwriting the existing one!

Correct. Mistake on my part, you need to download the vbgarage310.zip from the first post and extract the vbgarage.php from that file.

[magnus]

Once I click submit, I just get the page refreshed and I have to go back to the garage manually? Is that correrect, or should it re-direct me after I click submit?
Yes, that's correct. Else, everytime you upload a picture you will be sent to View Garage. If you're uploading multiple pictures, that would be a serious PITA. :)

[magnus]

is vbgarage301.zip file still available? I'm trying to upgrade from v3 to 3.0.1 to 3.1.0

[magnus]

How can I take the 'latest uploads' and place it on other pages also, like in the forums page below the navbar and on my vbadvanced page?
Possible? Yes. It would require you to do some hacking. If this is a big enough request, I can make it a bit easier in a future release.

Loopy, yes, weeks ago when I first started my board :)

OK how do I get the pics toline in 2 columns? see what mine is doing now on the screenshot.......
You'll either need to enlarge the table, or reduce the thumbnail size. By default, I set thumbnails to 100x100, and that way they display in 2 columns.

[joeychgo]

I just think its a way to showcase the garage --- WOuldnt it be just a html block that would have to be inserted somewhere? (im getting better, but im still new lol)

[magnus]

I just think its a way to showcase the garage --- WOuldnt it be just a html block that would have to be inserted somewhere? (im getting better, but im still new lol)
Sort of. Except, in it's current state, the "Latest Uploads" are processed when vbgarage.php?do=view is called. Once it's called, it immediately outputs the vbgarage_viewgarage template.

You would need to isolate the "Latest Uploads" SQL queries in the 'view' function and copy them to index.php (or whichever file you want it called from). Then, edit the respective template to include provisions for the vbgarage_latestbits.

It's not really hard, and normally I wouldn't mind whipping it together real quick. But I'm sort of burned out right now. My TIVO has a few days of Law & Order episodes recorded, so I think I'm going to take a break for a bit. ;)

Of course, if there are any major problems or such, I will be here to help. If you can wait, I'll gladly modulize the Latest Uploads as well as include a Random Picture module.

Magnus.. upgrade went perfectly.. very nice work.. this looks to be a hack many people are going to play with and hopefully add on :)
Glad to hear it. I did, however, notice that your navbar link isn't working. You have it pointing to /vbgarage.php?do=list, when it should be /forums/vbgarage.php?do=list. ;)

On a side note, nice site. I just picked up a '96 GSXR750 yesterday, I might just sign up. :)

I'm sorry, I'm not understanding the question. Are you asking if it's possible to use this with GD1.6+?
Yes, whether there is a chance there also with GD 1,6 runs permits,
tip/assistance would be good

[joeychgo]

I want! :)

Ideally, random......... and clickable so you can go right to the pic owners garage...... IM looking to put it right below the navbar on my forums page...Maybe add it as a block on my VBAdvanced

i can make a latest pics on main page or a random images block if you guys want?

[magnus]

Yes, whether there is a chance there also with GD 1,6 runs permits,

Does it run? Sure.

In vbgarage.php:

FIND:

ImageCreateTrueColor(


REPLACE with:

ImageCreate(


The thumbnails will look weird though. I've read there are ways to tweak ImageCreate(); so the thumbnails display correctly. But, since I (and hopefully most people) use GD2.0+, I didn't pursue the issue.

i can definatly do it i just had a play, and sorted it but pics link to main garage not image, im off to bed now lol its past midnight and im working at 8 am today ! i lll see wot i can do tonight :)

[esoin]

You must be using GD2.0+, else thumbnailing will not work. You need to upgrade your GD version.

I upgraded from v3 to v3.1 successfully. I don't have GD support. I get red "x" where all the thumbnails used to be. Is there a way to revert back to thumbnail resizing? Thanks

[corsacrazy]

MAGNUS - please read posts #

MAGNUS

thanks it runs now :)

[magnus]

are my pics ment to look like this ? :( i have gd 2 +
Yes. Unfortunately I'm not a GD wizard, so if the image quality for thumbnails is unsatisfactory, there's not much I can at the moment. I'm still learning about GD, so if I come across anything that might help, I'll share the info. ;)

[magnus]

suggestion : add Vbgarage Pages And Info To The Wol Page !
Yup. Noted.

Perfect , sounds gr8

Yes. In both vbgarage_imagesbits and vbgarage_editimagesbits you will change ?do=thumb&amp;width=100 to ?do=getimage. Then, set appropriate width= variables for the <IMG> tags.

[lasto]

good hack magnus.
/me clicks installs

[magnus]

Add "Who's Online" Locations

In includes/functions_online.php:

FIND:

case 'bugs':
$userinfo['action'] = construct_phrase($vbphrase['viewing_x'], 'Bugs'); // Don't report 'bugs' as needing to be translated please :p
break;


Add BELOW:

case 'vbgarage':
$userinfo['action'] = construct_phrase($vbphrase['viewing_x'], $vbphrase[vbgarage]);
break;


FIND:

case 'bugs.php':
$userinfo['activity'] = 'bugs';
break;


Add BELOW:

case 'vbgarage.php':
$userinfo['activity'] = 'vbgarage';
break;


Done!

Did you see post 205 magnus?

[magnus]

Did you see post 205 magnus?
Yes. See post 211 (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=498878&postcount=211).

For future reference, if someone is going to reference a post.. please provide a link, it's much easier than me trying to find it in the list.

Thanks. ;)

[joeychgo]

oops sorry... :)


"You'll either need to enlarge the table, or reduce the thumbnail size. By default, I set thumbnails to 100x100, and that way they display in 2 columns."


How do I enlarge the table?

[magnus]

oops sorry... :)


"You'll either need to enlarge the table, or reduce the thumbnail size. By default, I set thumbnails to 100x100, and that way they display in 2 columns."


How do I enlarge the table?
By passing width="{x}%" variables for that specific <td> column. It's something you'll need to tinker with until you get it how you want it. :)

in teh template view garage change the 40% to 50 and change the 60% to 50% aswell

[joeychgo]

Errrr Where?


in teh template view garage change the 40% to 50 and change the 60% to 50% aswell

[corsacrazy]

try using this template instead u will have to re add the changes for comment system if u are using it

[joeychgo]

the 50%/50% change worked --- I just didnt know which template that was in, but I found it.......

[esoin]

Yes. In both vbgarage_imagesbits and vbgarage_editimagesbits you will change ?do=thumb&amp;width=100 to ?do=getimage. Then, set appropriate width= variables for the <IMG> tags.

I did that and I don't think it worked


<td class="alt2" valign="bottom"><img src="$vboptions[bburl]/vbgarage.php?do=getimage;width=100&amp;id=$image[vbgarageid]" alt="$image[name]" /><br />
<center><input type="checkbox" name="delete$image[vbgarageid]">$vbphrase[delete]</center>
</td>



<td class="alt2" valign="bottom"><img src="$vboptions[bburl]/vbgarage.php?do=getimage;width=100&amp;id=$image[vbgarageid]" alt="$image[name]" /><br />
<center><input type="checkbox" name="delete$image[vbgarageid]">$vbphrase[delete]</center>
</td>



I tried with and w/o the &amp

Any ideas? Thank you

You need to completely remove ;width=100. Change alt= to width="100" alt=.

This is how it should look:

<td class="alt2" valign="bottom"><img src="$vboptions[bburl]/vbgarage.php?do=getimage&amp;id=$image[vbgarageid]" width="100" alt="$image[name]" /><br />
<center><input type="checkbox" name="delete$image[vbgarageid]">$vbphrase[delete]</center>
</td>

Magnus- Upgrade worked perfectly, just had to remember to manually add the new templates to my added styles.

Our members are just eating this up! :D

You got any screen shots of your template changes? I would love to take a peek

[SVTOA]

Sure, give me a sec to process them for you... BRB...

[SVTOA]

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...

[SVTOA]

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?

[esoin]

This is how it should look:

<td class="alt2" valign="bottom"><img src="$vboptions[bburl]/vbgarage.php?do=getimage&amp;id=$image[vbgarageid]" width="100" alt="$image[name]" /><br />
<center><input type="checkbox" name="delete$image[vbgarageid]">$vbphrase[delete]</center>
</td>


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?


<a style="cursor:pointer; cursor-hand" href="vbgarage.php?do=popup&amp;image=$vboptions[bburl]/vbgarage.php?do=getimage&amp;id=$image[vbgarageid]" onclick="PopupPic(this.href); return false;" target="_blank"><img src="$vboptions[bburl]/vbgarage.php?do=getimage&amp;id=$image[vbgarageid]" width="100" alt="$image[name]" /></a>
