I've seen this VBgarage on a Greek Auto Club,

http://www.bmw-motorsport.gr/forums/vbgarage.php

It's on 3.5.1 and it's working...
Which version is it and where can I download it?

[@ngel]

Anybody...???

[cbr929rrerion]

if you figure out how I wannna do it...

[dead7]

well, if you hack out the globalize function from a 3.0.7 functions.php and just paste it in the 3.5.* functions.php, you can then edit vbgarage.php and change $DB_site and replace that with $vbulletin->db->

lol, i hacked around and that will start displaying the garages anyway haha... useless i know but hey its something eh

[erroneus]

count me in on a $donation too. Let's try to get them to port it over to 3.5!

The author should setup a paypal donation page and ask for whatever amount he wants. Then we could each pitch in til that amount is reached. Time is money and I'm sure it'll take a lot of his time, so I'm sure whatever amount he asks for will be reasonable. Just my thought on it..

[Freezerator]

good plan, count me in.

I too am willing to make a donation for someone to update this to work with 3.5.3

[cbr929rrerion]

Hey guys,

So far, i'm liking the way vbgarage is working. However, I have a couple questions and suggestions for improvements.

1) Create a verification for deleting a garage!!! Logged in as an admin, and viewing a garage, there's the delete/edit links at the top. I accidentally clicked delete, and it was gone. There really needs to be an 'are you sure' step in there somewhere to prevent that.

2) The table for viewing needs to be set to the top of the cell. Right now they're set at middle, which places the text way down the middle of the page if there's a lot of pics in the garage. I'm sure that's just a simple mod in the template, so if anyone has done it, let me know how you did it.

Thanks for a great mod!
