Geek Article and Review System (GARS) LITE

From the makers of disco and square dancing comes the LITE, GARS LITE. Released for those needing an article/tutorial/recipe/review/blahblahblah system for only 1 forum, GARS LITE will make your site sing.

To say that GARS is only for articles, tutorials and reviews is like saying spoons are only for eating cereal. GARS can radically transform your forums look and functionality by allowing you to create an unlimited amount of different configurations of phrases, template and modules that can be applied on a forum by forum basis.

Designed with its own module system, you can easily expand and customize your configurations like never before. Modules can be re-used and re-used each time with different settings.

GARS LITE Key Features

• Transform any forum instantly without importing or changing the underlying data.
• Since GARS sits in front of vB, Anything you can do in vB you can do in GARS (user permissions, WYSIWYG editor, BBcode, Subscriptions, attachments, etc...)
• Create an unlimited amount of configurations, template sets, etc...
• Upload default thread header images and create a gallery of images for users to choose from
• Create a standard set of Ratings for each configuration to use (perfect for reviews)
• Page break and navigation system for GARS that span multiple pages.
• GARS LITE comes with 9 pre installed modules.

What you cant do in the LITE version that you can in the PRO:

• GARS LITE limits you to using it on 1 forum.
• Users can not upload their own header images.
• Users may not rate in reviews only authors can.
• The module caching system is disabled

Please note that you MAY NOT remove the copyright at the bottom of the GARS enabled pages.

Check out the in depth on-line manual for information and admin screen shots

GARS requires vBulletin 3.5x and requires no file or template edits.

If you install, do me a please click the freaking install button.

I installed this and made a GARS review forums....however I made this forums permission to 'moderate new threads'...unexpectedly I had every forums that was lower in order also have this attribute. I assume this is a bug.

Any help?

UPDATE:

I disabled the plugin. Double checked all my settings..then enabled the plugin once again. All seems normal now. I am not sure what went wrong.

i am totally baffled on how to use this.

i have installed it as per the instructions, but how do i get it onto my forum?

[kj_ugs]

I have a big issue lol. I'm using a RC version of the first version. How hard is it going to be to update from the version 1 to the new version 2 for vb 3.6.0?

Any help or advice would be helpful.
Thanks

[soletrader]

does this work with 3.6?

[m0nde]

I used to use all of your stuff when I ran 3.0.x. Now with the advent of 3.5 and beyond, I've had to forgo your beautiful lines of code.

I see that you're selling the full versions of these plugin-friendly packages on http://www.vbgeek.com.
Smart business move!

Once the article system comes out of beta and goes into v2.0 I will buy it.
But I'm going to try this LITE thing now.

You rock! And your installer thing, GISH was great in the day!

:laugh:

Thanks

Havent been here for awhile - btw: Its out of beta.

Everyone else - please remember that this thread and release is totally unsupported. It wont work on 3.6x and it will only work on 1 forum.

Thanks

I have to click uninstall only because I bought the full version.

Upload default thread header images and create a gallery of images for users to choose from
