VbGarage 3.5

VbGarage 3.5
Let Your Members Show Off Their Rides !!!

Summary:

This is a semi-direct port of the hack located at:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=63681

The author has given me permission to re-release this hack under his 3.1.1 codebase, and as such I have converted it Vbulletin 3.5 support which involved a good many changes.

Also I changed a couple templates, and some html fixes so it will look a little better than it used to, feel free to suggest any other bugs that need to be fixed.

One last thing, although I will "Try" to get around to fixing any bugs that come in, this is NOT my hack, and therefore I will not associate myself with supporting this hack; I merely have done a service for the people that requested the port.

Credit goes to the original authors: magnus, noppid, action-n

Again: THIS IS NOT MY CODE. AND IT IS NOT SUPPORTED.


Information:

1. Make sure you have a writable tmp directory.
2. This script only supports jpg, png, gif files.
3. I dont plan on re-writing this entire script to make it bug free, so please dont ask me to do so.

Upgrade From Vbulletin 3.x.x :

1. There is no upgrader; you just need 2 do a couple things.
2. More than likely you can leave your old vbg tables (havnt tested).
3. You _Do_ need to delete any previous settings/phrases/templates though.
4. Use phpmyadmin or w/e you use, and search your database for vbg with a wildcard it should locate anything that has that name in it; and delete them. Then follow the INSTALL.txt

Installation:

1. Download Zip File
2. Read INSTALL.txt
3. Click install if you like


Changes:

3/10/2006 8:43am - Fixed Comments; they now post to correct Garage.
3/9/2006 10:37pm - Image Types are determined manually.
1. Did some actiontemplate optimizations, so only the necessary templates are loaded on the pages needed.
2. Removed the text field limit for describing your ride.
3/9/2006 10:37pm - Image Types are determined manually.
3/9/2006 12:54pm - A change to image output.
3/9/2006 12:06pm - Attempt to fix image corruption.


To Upgrade:

Simply overwrite the vbgarage.php file.

You only edited the .php file, no need to edit the .xml file ????


I just changed vbgarage to garage using crimson editor and it has made no difference

I miss read your first post, thought you just wanted to change all the words so it didnt say vbgarage. But I do remember when I did it to mine, that didnt change for some reason. Not sure where that is to edit it.

Just installed this on 3.5.2.

What would cause it to throw up a blank page when I try to submit a new car? I can go into my control panel, hit "Update Garage", enter year, make and model then when I hit submit all I get is a blank page.

We had an older installation of vbgarage a few years back and I've tried removing the original tables and reinstalling the mod.

You did the following steps of the "readme":

Open your styles NAVBAR template.
- Find the following:

<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="calendar.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[calendar]</a></td>

- Below add this:

<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="vbgarage.php?$session[sessionurl]do=list">$vbphrase[vbgarage]</a></td>

Two ways:
N?1 -> change the text marked red in the code above
N?2 -> edit the phrase (vbgarage) from vB Garage => to Garage

There was no "readme" so i assume you mean "install" of which yes i read.

The garage is working flawlessly with no issues. It is just the link in the navbar that i want to change in order to drop the VB from it.

I just tried your suggestions and it made no difference. I changed

<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="vbgarage.php?$session[sessionurl]do=list">$vbphrase[vbgarage]</a></td>

To this

<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="vbgarage.php?$session[sessionurl]do=list">$vbphrase[garage]</a></td>

Help a confused lost soul please

Thanks! Installed fine but the image limit seems to be forum wide. Not just the garage.

When I went in to edit and upload the pics the system wouldn't let me. Said I was over my limit on storeable images and had to delete some to make more room. I had the garage limit at 20. I have temporarily set it to 2000.

Shouldn't this setting only effect a user's garage?

Try this one :

<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="vbgarage.php?$session[sessionurl]do=list">Garage</a></td>

For some reason I missed reading this when I first saw it and I ran into this problem while editing mine.

Will this eliminate the dublicated pre-words? I really don't know enough about the mysql to get it to work correctly, can you possibly explain it more. I can add the tables but do know what to call them. Thank you in advance.

When i do that, it removes the link completely from the navbar.


I am guessing it is .xml file that needs changing. So the question is, if i remove the .xml file and replace it with a modded version with the VB removed from the garage title will i lose all the exisitng entires into the garage already? i am thinking yes. If so how do i save them or replace them once i change the.xml file?

Many thanks
