Has anybody upgraded to vBulletin 3.0.1 with VBGarage running?

I'm still using 3.0.0 & because I've made some changes to VBGarage, along with installation of the games Arcade & post since last visits hack, I have been waiting for a time when I could spend a few hours to fix everything back up if needed.

What are the main files I should overwrite to get me to 3.0.1 without too many dramas?

[SVTOA]

I haven't upgraded while the vbgarage was installed on 3.0, but I have two sites with vb garage, one is 3.0 and the other 3.0.1 and I have not run into any problems of any kind. Since this is mostly template driven, you should not have any problems with upgrading.

[Odoin]

Yeah... I went from 3.0 to 3.0.1 with no issues at all...

I'm having problems with the thumbnails. We recently migrated to another server and I did mysqldump and then an import for the transfer. Now, the Thunbnails show up as red X's but when I click on them I get the actual image. I don't have much experience with images stored in a database, is this a common problem? Solution?

When I type in the URL; http://www.racersden.net/forum/vbgar...idth=100&id=90 , I get the following message:

Looks to me that your new server doesn't have GD 2.0+.

I had the same problem, its the servers GD version. This hack requires GD 2.0+ Since you said you changed servers, and just transfered everything. The server is the only difference in your site, so I'm almost positive its the GD version.

hope this helps

[Odoin]

Yeah I think it makes the thumbs on the fly rather then storing a thumb and a full size image. Check to make sure your GD is up to date

Hi
Ive been working on hacking my garage a bit and am having problems trying to include the profile feilds under the users garage.This would make it easy for users to view the garage and the users profile :surprised:
I can have the memberinfo template data show but the links are broken or missing the user ?=23 id at the end of the url.
When i include the member.php file in vbgarage it will display the users info but i also get broken images for the latest uploads and garage images,and or it displays an error saying the user is not registered and has no profile to view when i call vbgarage.php?do=listgarage :ermm:

Can someone tell me if im on the right track,
How can i add the profile infos under the users garage,
thanks

I have the same issue, if you click on the red x - The image comes up full size.

Now, I have GD 2.0+:

GD Support enabled
GD Version 2.0 or higher
FreeType Support enabled
FreeType Linkage with freetype
JPG Support enabled
PNG Support enabled
WBMP Support enabled

Direct from PHPinfo.

If I take the path that the server is giving me for the thumb directly and input that into the address bar I get a document can not be found error message (500). Now, what is wrong?
