VB Pro Garage Timeslips Details »» | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Description
VB Pro Garage Timeslips (formerly CND Garage/Timeslips) is a free vehicle and timeslips add on for vBulletin 4. This is a great way to allow members to show off their rides, whether they are cars, motorcycles, atv's, etc. Site administrators have dozens of options to tailor the way the garage is displayed and the number of vehicles, images and timeslips the user can enter. User vehicle creation is done through a simple screen with dropdowns and simple text fields. Users can enter either miles or km and system will automatically calculate differences for front page statistics. ** New Features ** * SEO Friendly URLs (htaccess only) * Page Caching - physical html files which make a HUGE reduction in sql queries * Front Categories - a category system as an alternate front page to the block layout. I believe it will increase the garage ranking in search engines greatly when used with SEO URL's and the included dynamic meta tags. * Thread Creation - Automatically create new threads in the forum of your choosing with the text of your choosing when a new vehicle is created in the garage. Main Features * No vb template modification needed * Ajax driven menu's to keep load time down if you have a very large lists of makes/models * Usergroup level permissions to set the amount of vehicles, images, timeslips allowed * 99.9% of the text is phrased so that it can be translated for multinational sites * On the fly image/text watermarking ability to make sure images are tied to your site * Lytebox image presentation Installation Instructions, tips and more are now in the included chm file. If you have problems with the chm I have the document published at: http://www.vbprogarage.com/forums/docs/html_vb4_ts_300/ The quick and dirty install: 1) Upload all files in the upload folder 2) Import vb_pro_garage.xml into Product Manager 3) Import vb_pro_garage_language_english.xml into Languages & Phrases 4) If you want all makes and models I've collected, import vb_pro_garage_vehicles^^new_install_only.xml into Product Manager Post Installation So you don't have to find it in the instructions. After install, there is a button up top in the navbar. This button by default is admin only. This is so you can configure and test without having to close the garage. When you are ready to deploy to the community: ACP->Settings->Options->Garage General Settings - Set Garage Menu Button to Enabled. The garage is developed on vb 4.0.7 and tested back to 4.0.0. The garage will run on PHP 5.x+ compiled with GD/GD2 and MySQL 5.x+ Additional options for the garage like adding featured businesses that support your site, fuel tracking, dyno charts, modifications and lots more are included in the commercial version. Many thanks to Coroner for his stylebridge which led me on a path that saved me hours and hours of template editing There are a few bugs that you might run into on this version. Instead of working on correcting them in the files and working on getting a new package up here, I'm working on the next version and including the posts that fix the errors here.

I'm also keen to find out... I'm tearing my hair out trying to get responses from anyone who develops garage plug-ins for VB4.2. Sadly DTO cant be bothered to answer emails, vHoist seems to have been still-born...
Anybody else got any ideas? |

yawn... sadly after reading 61 pages of repetitive posts, I still cant seem to get this installed properly to 4.2
It appears that there may be an error in the xml file? For some reason, many database tables are not installing. I have tried multiple attempts at reinstall and debugging with no luck. Apache version 2.2.22 PHP version 5.3.13 MySQL version 5.1.63-cll Architecture x86_64 Operating system linux Issue: Missing database tables Below are the only tables that are being installed: vb_garage_blocks vb_garage_colors vb_garage_currency vb_garage_engine_type vb_garage_generation vb_garage_guestbooks vb_garage_trims Browse vb_garage_vehicle_classes I briefly examined the xml and could not find an error as of yet but still looking. |

I'll get a fresh install of 4.2 going this weekend and do a fresh garage install to see if I can find the problem. |

Ok, I got it installed.
Apparently some db queries use ENGINE=MyISAM and others use TYPE=MyISAM After changing about 13 entries of TYPE to ENGINE in the xml, it installed fine. |

Bilderback, would you be so kind as to post what the fixes you made were? Just do a replace of one for the other?

OK, got it installed but the admincp menu for it looks odd. Looks like some menu definitions are missing
See attachment. Also doesn't install the menu item in the navbar, even though I'm logged in as admin |

There is a plugin rewrite for the navbar if your running vB4.2 here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...18#post2334918 I guess you figured out the XML file. I cant remember exactly how many changes there were (approx. 13) but at the end of each database query in the garage install XML, I changed some from TYPE to ENGINE. You should see that the first few use ENGINE and then it uses TYPE. |

Thanks
All up and running. Do you know if there is any way to create custom text blocks, things like mods to supension engine tuning etc, similar to the old DTO Garage I also need to disable timeslips - we're offroaders, not racers |

There is a vB settings page where you can disable the timeslips section.
Right now custom fields need to be added through plugins. The new version I'm working on (which seems to be taking forever) will have an area in the ACP to add custom fields a lot easier. |

I'm guessing developing the plugins requires some good coding knowledge:erm: |
