This is an awsome hack and I have installed it into our site http://www.commodorecarclubwa.com

This is a great hack! I am however having a slight problem with it. A few weeks ago we upgraded to the very latest version of VB. When we did that, one small glitch apparently occured with our database. Anybody with a 1/4 mile time in single digits went from the top of the list, to the very bottom. We cant explain why since im told nothing about the timeslip database was modified for the upgrade. Anybody know what I might need to be looking for to fix this?

Here is a link to the timeslip database. As you can see, everybody with a 9 second or better slip is on the very last page..

Rog,
Check the note at the bottom of the hack post. ;)

Just upload this and run it. It'll fix your sorting problem.

Installed this hack on my new Mopar Forum - Thanks for this great hack!

Nice forum design on you nav link bar...a lot of thought went into it I'm sure...:rolleyes:

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I will definatly be more careful in making sure I read everything before I post a problem in the future.. :)

Thanks again!!!!

would it be hard to mod this into a dynograph page?

EvilLS1 -- Today I added the timeslip database back to my forum installation, and I noticed that it seems all of my users have defaulted to not being able to upload timeslips to their profile.

What query can I run in Query Analyzer to reset all users to "YES - Can upload timeslips" ?

Thanks.

Tungsten,
No query needed. Theres a setting in your admincp to turn timeslip uploads on/off for all users. If you switch it to on everyone will be able to upload. The setting is under vb options - Timeslip Database settings.

Dewayne

Thanks! I didn't realize it was set for everyone.

I am working on upgrading this on my site. The first thing I did was use the script TD302 I believe, since I installed Timeslip 2.0 when running VB2.x. I upgraded to 3.07 and so started there. I then downloaded the upgrade to 2.1 script.

When I get to this part:

###### In admincp/user.php find:

print_yes_no_row($vbphrase['can_edit_vehicle_profile'], 'tdban',$user[tdban]);

###### Below it add:

print_yes_no_row('Delete Uploaded Timeslip?', 'deleteslip',0);

I can't find that in my user.php

Now....my site was hacked so I had to upload new VB files, thus erasing this. Do I have to re-install it fresh then?

Thanks

frankjp302,
Yes, you'll need to redo all the file edites if you uploaded fresh ones. Shouldn't need to run the upgrade script again though.

Great...thanks...I'll go and re-do all that.

Very nice setup you have here!

Sweet Hack! I just installed it and it is running perfectly on my site, http://www.carolinarides.com

Any idea how to get it to sort by 1/8th mile ET by default?

Thanks Joey.. You can see how to change the default sort method in this post:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....5&postcount=54
that shows how to change it to the 60' time but changing it to 1/8 mile ET is just as easy.

Also - when I try to edit a user's profile in my admincp, it sets their referrer to "tdban", and I have to delete the "tdban" in the referrer box before it lets me save. This started happening right after I installed this hack. Any ideas?

Never heard of that happening before. Only thing I can suggest is to carefully redo the file edits to admincp/user.php and see if that fixes it.

EvilLS1, are you going to make a VB 3.5 version?

Not right now (too much other stuff going on).. but whenever I get around to upgrading my board I'll port it over for 3.5.

Trying to make this work with vBindex, and I've followed the instructions 100%. When loading vbindex.php, I get these errors at the top of the page:

Any ideas?

Just installed this on Pontiac Zone and the guys think it's cool. What they suggest is that there be an extra category for links to the video of their runs. Many of them have videos, which are even more proof than the slip itself. Very cool stuff.
I guess the link section could also be used to link to a personal website or something too.
Just a suggestion.

What about when a user has more than one car?

EvilLS1... we've noticed that for some reason we aren't seeing all of the users who have entered timeslip data. www.tennesspeeed.net/forums/timeslips.php

There are only 14 people listed there but reportedly there are more that just aren't showing up. Any ideas as to what I could check?

Joey,
I dont use vbindex so I can't help with those errors. Maybe SVTBlackLight01 can help.. He released the vbindex addon.

Aeolian_X,
Thanks for the suggestions. Maybe in a future version.

Tungsten,
Can you give me the username or better yet the user ID of a couple of your users who say their info isn't showing up? I want to look at something. Keep in mind, if they only enter 1/8 mile info and leave the 1/4 mile fields blank they will not show up unless you sort by 1/8 mile times.

Let me check the 1/8 mile thing. That may be it!

Yes, that was it. :rolleyes: I'm an idiot. :lol:

Im running 3.07 and just tried to make a change to the avatar size for one of the usergroups and it resulted in this error which appeared to be Timeslip related
I was able to update the size by editing the mysql directly but it would be nice to be able to use the gui ...

Any ideas ?

Doug

Doug,
The "cantimeslip" thing is not part of the hack itself.. Its from this addon:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=270

Check over the code edits in that addon and see if everything is there. If it is, something has probably changed in 3.0.7 so email me your init.php file and I'll take a look.

You rock - That fixed it - I hadent updated the code since 3.01 ....

THANKS

I really hope you can add more timeslips/cars per user in the next version. I have people signing up now under multiple usernames just to post timeslips. I've forced them to make 10 posts before being able to use the timeslip database, but they just make 10 stupid posts just to use it. LOL! I hate to force rules on everyone, just for a few jerks, but that's the internet for ya.

Any word on a new version for 3.5.0?

JoeyAnderson,
vB 3.5.0 is still beta and will probably see many more code changes before the final stable version is released. So I won't begin porting the hack until its out of beta.

Has anyone got a FAQ section written up for this?
I know its pretty damn simple but unfortunately there are those people around that need that little extra help!

With vB 3.5 well into the Release Candidate stage, can we expect to see a revised version of the Timeslip database soon? There are new features with vB 3.5 that I'd like to take advantage of, but my users are very attached to the timeslip db as well.

I have it on my site too. Can you list me under your name? www.s10planet.com

great hack, can't wait to see it for 3.5

Is there any news on the workings of a hack for multiple cars/timeslips under one user??

Thanks a million Evil! I LOVE this hack! One quick question though. Being the admin, is there a way I can edit/delete other members timeslip data? Have a clown on there playing games, and I want to get rid of his entry altogether.

Thanks again!!!

In the admincp, you can edit the information under the member's profile. You can also prevent him from entering in his timeslip info.
