Car Site Related Hacks (vbGarage, Timeslip Database, etc)
 

Just curious about some of these hacks for vb3.5 I know the guy running LS1tech.com was creating alot of these hacks, and I'm running an f-body forum and the main thing keeping me from moving towards 3.5 is those hacks that are car site related.

Anyone have any news on them?

car sites https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/

interested as well :ermm:

Wow, great input.

Also interested - I've installed a fresh copy of 3.5.0 and require vbgarage etc

One of the reasons why I'm waiting a bit to do the upgrade....

i have been enlightened past all current knowledge of man. :rolleyes:

I think it was, would you like some input too?

Behave young one. :mad:

EvilLs1 won't be upgrading his hacks anytime soon. He has some personal things going on that he needs to take care of first. If and when he decides to upgrade his hacks, I'm sure he will announce it first. I will be looking into upgrading some of them for him as soon as I get a few other things done first.

I was thinking of doing the same thing myself. I already begain coding some things for a new site, so I might add some of these too the list.

Make sure you get his permission before releasing any updates to his hacks.

I wasn't planning on releasing anything, I suck at writting how-to's.

However, I have been contemplating one idea on my own. I use vbgallery and was using vbgarage.

But on a car site, most people upload pictures of their rides in the gallery. And then you go over to the garage and do the same thing all over again. Seems redudant to me.

So I was thinking of making an add-on for vbgallery users that would allow them to create garage albums that would simulate the garage hack.

that would be awesome

Which hacks are you going to work on?

I have vBGarage running on vB3.5 but:

1) I don't want to share it.
2) I can't share it because it's heavily modified.
3) I am not allowed to share it.

I too need the Timeslip DB, I'm upgrading this weekend.. HELP! :)

I will probably run without it for a while until it's released/modded.

It was really useful on the old board, and like everyone else it seems, I'd love to have it on the upgraded 3.5 version too.

noppid has said that he is NOT converting vbGarage for 3.5.. instead he's making a gallery product to take it's place since it almost is a gallery.

Has any timeline been released for that??

I have converted timeslips.php for a client so the timeslips DB is not useless and the page stays in the serps. But, that's it.

I would be willing to share it since the author has given permission. However, I don't use the hack so I have not been compelled to convert anymore of it.

It's already released - see it in action at Lincoln vs Cadillac or Team-2G Mitsubishi Forum

yes please I really wanna get to upgrade to 3.5 and these are the same reasons I haveyet to do it!

What is it that you want? timeslips.php?

I'd take it the timeslips, I checked out the gallery deal, still seems redudant if I already have a gallery.

No doubt.

PM me an email address.

Yes I'd like timeslips but I mean I also have the garage also have a few other mods like banner ads and stuff heh

Thanks man. PM sent.

I sent him a pm too............did he ever get back to you with the hack? Just curious.

Do you know which gallery product it will be based?

Its actually almost exactly like vbgarage: http://www.cpurigs.com/forums/vbpicgallery.php?do=list

i need vBGarage or its replacement ASAP, i've just upgraded my site.

timeslip database is also important.

The replacement is vbpicgallery. It does cost now to buy the file, but it is worth the money. It upgraded my site perfectly and it actually has some pretty kewl features in it. Here is a pic of it running on my site: http://www.insanemustangs.com/forums/vbpicgallery.php? and here is a pic of the timeslip database inaction too: http://www.insanemustangs.com/forums/timeslips.php?

Any progress?

I want the full install for 3.5 also. Thanks

What did you have to hack to get the time slips to work. Also does vbpicgallery work with the old vbgarage tables. I don't want to lose all my users info. I'd drop $20 now if it will fix the time slip and garage issues I'm having...

You can check out www.fordcustoms.com as they have something like your talking about.

i've got the timeslips part wroking on my site now. however i really need the vBgarage. can this be done using the exisiting vBgarage data?

I was able to get the timeslips working also and I have part of the trader ratings done but I haven't started vbgarage yet. Fun, Fun, Fun....
