I restructured the database fields as well.
You can see it in action here. Nothing to do with cars though

What would be the appropriate conditional to use when placing this in the postbit, to determine if a user has setup their Garage?

great hack, install went smooth and fast.

One thing that would be cool is the code buttons on the edit page... I've looked through this thread and searched and came up with no mods for this... Anyone do it yet?

As far as I know, the S10 version's layout is based on the DodgeTalk one. And I coded the DodgeTalk one. (Although they look the same, they're not.)

i've tried all the suggestions for making this work with 3.0.3 but no such luck. i've read and re-read the instructions step by step. here's my init code...

// Reputation

'canseeownrep' => 256,
'canuserep' => 524288,
'canhiderep' => 1048576,
'cannegativerep' => 2097152,
'canseeothersrep' => 4194304,
'canhaverepleft' => 8388608,
// START VBGARAGE HACK
'canvbgarage' => 16777216
// END VBGARAGE HACK
);

i've ran the queries on the database as suggested in a previous post also. i've checked permissions, etc. but users still get an error saying they don't have permission to access the garage.

any help would be appreciated. thanks

hy,

are there any known problems with vBulletin 3.0.3 german version?
or is this hack working for the german version smoothly?

thx!

problems:
1) in the admincp > user groups management the field for the vbgarage is blank but has the yes or no radio button.
2) in the vbulletin board options the vbgarage field isn't neither.

i'm running 3.0.3
