How to add username var to thread title for VB Garage?

[cTak]

I use the modification VB Pro Garage Timeslips.

When a user adds a new vehicle to their garage, a new post is automatically made in a certian forum.

You can customize the title, and the body, of this post. By default they are as follows:

Title: A new vehicle has been created in the garage!
Body: {username} has created a new vehicle in the garage. Go check out their {vehicle}!

I want to use the {username} variable in the title as well, to make the title look like this.

{username} added their {vehicle} to their garage. , but the variables do not work.
It shows up like this:


Anyone know how to make this work?

I believe I've tracked it down to this code from the file garage_func_var.php

I need to add the {username} var to the $title somehow, just like the $pagetext has the str_replace of {username}

Anyone help me out with what coding is needed to make this work?

PHP Code:

    $threaddm =& datamanager_init('Thread_FirstPost', $vbulletin, ERRTYPE_ARRAY, 'threadpost');

    $allowsmilie = '1';
    $visible = '1';
    $forumid = $vbulletin->options[garage_post_forum];
    $userid = $vbulletin->options[garage_post_user];

    $title = addslashes($vbulletin->options[garage_post_subject]);

    $vehicle_link = get_gar_veh_link($return_var, $vbphrase, $vbulletin, $garage_seo_rules);
    $veh_name = get_display_vehicle($return_var);

    $new_veh_user_link = get_gar_user_link($data[userid], $vbphrase, $vbulletin, $garage_seo_rules);
    $new_veh_user = htmlspecialchars_uni(fetch_userinfo($data[userid]));

    $full_user_link = '[url=' . $new_veh_user_link . ']' . $new_veh_user[username] . '[/url]';

    $full_veh_link = '[url=' . $vehicle_link . ']' . $veh_name . '[/url]';

    $foruminfo = fetch_foruminfo($forumid);
    $threadinfo = array();
    $user = htmlspecialchars_uni( fetch_userinfo($userid) );

        if (!$user[username])
        {
        $userid = '1';
        }

    $pagetext = str_replace('{username}', $full_user_link, $vbulletin->options[garage_post_text]);
    $pagetext = str_replace('{vehicle}', $full_veh_link, $pagetext);

    $pagetext = str_replace('{username}', $full_user_link, $vbulletin->options[garage_post_subject]);
    $pagetext = str_replace('{vehicle}', $full_veh_link, $pagetext);

Note:
"garage_post_subject" is "{username} added their {vehicle} to their garage" from the database

"garage_post_text" is "{username} has created a new vehicle in the garage. Go check out their {vehicle}!" from the database as well

This should help you out a bit. From one of my old modifications.....

PHP Code:

// Check to see if create new thread is enabled
if ($vbulletin->options['usml_staffapp_createthread'] == 1)
{
        // Make a new thread
                require_once(DIR . '/includes/functions_newpost.php');

        $forumid = intval($vbulletin->options['usml_staffapp_forumid']);
        $user_id = $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'];
        $username = $vbulletin->userinfo['username'];

        $target_foruminfo = fetch_foruminfo($forumid);
        $newpost = array(
            'userid' => $user_id,
            'username' => $username,
            'message' =>  $message2,
            'title' => 'Staff Application: ' . $vbulletin->GPC['username'],
            'poststarttime' => time(),
            'emailupdate' => 0
        );

        build_new_post('thread', $target_foruminfo, array(), array(), $newpost, $errors);

        // Check if any errors during post
        if (sizeof($errors) > 0)
        {
        // Post of new thread failed !
        $error_info = construct_errors($errors);
        //echo $error_info;
        // do anything you want here - likely to redirect !
        // ...
        }

        // Fix forums counters
        build_forum_counters($forumid);
