Are there any errors?
I have not looked at the importer, so I'm not familiar with it at all, but I will help as much as I can.

I will look into this when I get a chance.

To me, it looks like it develops the Photos directories, but doesn't place any images in them. It does place a blank index.php in each.

I am not getting any errors since the removal of the files related to not having the delimiter /'s

I really hate to abandon the hundreds of users who have taken the time to upload into Garage, but maybe that is what I am just going to have to accept if I want to clean up my board.

Give Eric (Dragonsys) a chance to look into this...he knows what he's doin' and I suspect he'll get it rockin' again (no pressure, Eric LOL!) :p

lol, thanks

hmmm, ok I will take a look at it as soon as I can.

I have another site running the same vbulletin version and garage. I attempted an import of rides there too with similar results. The other forum is pretty plain and has no problems with garage.

Is there something basic I can be doing wrong?

On my first attempt I did show this error:
[26-Dec-2016 00:11:08 UTC] PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function can_administer() in /home/carscene/public_html/forums/vbrides_import.php on line 36

No, it is probably an issue with the importer. I have been sick all week and have not been able to look at it yet.

Thanks, so often I just don't see the problem.
Sorry to hear you have been sick, hope you are feeling better soon. It is easy enough to get something with all the seasonal socializing.

try this.

Add the below to line 200-201 (vbrides_import.php):
Save and try running the import again. Not sure if this is the issue, just stood our to me that the script doesn't seem to create all the folders it tries to use.
