Geek Article and Review System (GARS) LITE
Developer Last Online: Jan 2019
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
What you cant do in the LITE version that you can in the PRO:
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. nJoy Show Your Support

Hi i was wondering these 2 limitations
GARS LITE limits you to using it on 1 forum. Users can not upload their own header images. Using on 1 forum meaning we cant have articles categorized into sub forums? And also whats the default header image for users? Thanks |

Hey Looney,
Yes, limiting it to 1 forum means that you can not organise categories via sub forums as per the PRO version, however there are crap loads of sites that simply have 1 forum where they dump their articles, tutorials or reviews in so its perfect for those guys. Its also perfect for those that want a particular forum to be specialised (i.e. using the .org install/release add on I did). People may already have an article/review solution, but want a different type of solution for another aspect of their site (ie. maybe a recipe location on their site, or a download area). GARS is pretty freaking versatile, flexible and customisable. I think people will find loads of use for this LITE version. The default header image thing is not in the LITE version and optionally gives users the ability to upload an image for the header. This image appears in the title of the GAR as well as the threadbit. Some don't use this feature anyway as there is also a 'gallery' of sorts where you as the admin can upload a selection of images for users to choose from to customise their entries. The important thing is that even though it is 'LITE' and there are a small handful of features that exist in the PRO version, there is crap loads of functionality and features which will benefit countless sites without ever needing those features found in the PRO version. Check out the link in the first thread for the on-line manual. Hopefully that will help give you an idea of the possibilities with the system. Thanks |

If I wanted to upgrade from LITE to PRO, will it just be a matter of overwriting the LITE files?

Forum ID Hint Look, dont mess with this unless you are told by secret service agents eating bannanas. Basically its a quick hint for GARS to spawn itself which saves a query to the datastore on non GARS pages. This value is fed by the GARS Settings admincp page. Tweak it there. Goodbye! Warning: Unknown(./geek/gars/includes/gars_ignition.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /global.php(337) : eval()'d code on line 33 everything is uploaded to the forum root so i dont understand that unless in the admin cp gars admin that i am missing you have to set something |
