DTO Garage - free garage features for all your members (vB 3.8.X)
Developer Last Online: Jan 2014
Drive Thru Online ? Garage
Overview DTO Garage is a free product allowing all members of a site to show off their car, truck, motorcycle or other powersports toy. Site owners can easily adapt the section and subsection titles to suit the attributes to the site's focus. Images are stored locally preventing broken links and over limit displays common with images linked offsite. Drive Thru Online has made upgrading to the paid version of DTO Garage Plus easy, all user data stored in DTO Garage is retained for a seamless transition. For users, management of their vBulletin garage is conveniently handled through their user control panel. The intuitive user interface encourages even the most challenged to create a compelling Garage. Images are added via a wizard from either the users own computer or a specified URL. Thumbnails are dynamically created with high-resolution images displayed in a navigable Lytebox. Users can designate whether a garage is visible to the rest of the site members or hidden until they have time to polish the information and give it the debut it deserves. Other users can view garages using interactive pop-up menus embedded in each post or through the Garage owner's profile. Key Features
Language Translation As of version 1.1.3 DTO Garage has not been fully phrased and only supports English. With a future release it is our intent to offer a fully phrased version to support language translation of the product. When the fully phrased version is available we will provide documentation and tools to speed translations of the product for use on your site. We will also encourage those who have performed a translation to contribute it for distribution to other members. Any contributed languages will be included with this thread and credit given to the author. Site owners are free to translate the product either in its current state or future releases as they see fit given that the note found in the following Upgrade section is followed when upgrading. While Drive Thru Online will provide information to translators regarding the context of wording we can not provide support to facilitate the actual translation itself. Compatibility

Sorry I meant that the code should replace that found in the Garage Postbit Pop-up Menu plugin. It certainly wouldn't work well if placed in the template
I've updated my post above to indicate the plugin. Sorry for the confusion! Mark |

My thoughts on the questions you have(they can change if someone come up with better one's ): "the permissions associated with the current album settings by usergroup" I think that when you reach vbulletin gallery max a message to the user that the maximum number of images is reached and that he should contact admin if he feels its wrong, or something like that. It should not prevent the creation of new garages, only new images from being uploaded. "Also, if using the vBulletin album store would it be ideal that the user already have the images he/she wanted in their albums and select those for use in their garage or, when creating a garage, allow the user to load new images and have those go into a given album? If the latter would the user want the ability to choose which album (or create a new album) to have the images placed into." I think it should go both ways, if the image exist in some album it should be possible to choose that one, but also the user should be able to upload new images through the garage and be able to either put it in a currently existing album or create a new one. |

Another thing that would be great is to have some sort of blog function for each garage where you can blog about new things you have done to the car or adventures you have taken with it. And be able to upload images to that specific blog. I guess that gives us the same dilemma as my previous post about picture integration with vb gallery store. But im not sure if you should be limited by the vb gallery max images here. A max number of images/blog is enough i think. So im not sure if integrating it with vb gallery store is such a good idea after all. Maybe it could be solved somehow.
But a blog feature for the garages would be nice however you solve the picture thing . What do you think, something that could be done? |

Thank you for taking the time to provide detailed feedback. I've added these items to our list of items to investigate further. I can't guarantee that we'll be able to address these in the release we are planning for sometime in August. That said we will look into your suggestions and see what would be involved in supporting them. I especially like the garage blogging concept :up:
Thanks again for taking the time to provide us with feedback! Best regards, Mark |

Thanks for this mod.
I just installed the free version and created a garage. Every thing seems to be working so far except for the "Garage" link in the navbar. If I click it, the pull-down works but only the help link is active. Is this because it is the free version? Or is the Garage link supposed to work? Thanks, Rich S http://www.kutsujuracing.com/forum/index.php Edit: I do have one real issue.... in adding pictures. I can upload a photo from my hard drive using the browse option. However if I link to a file on the internet I get a blank white screen. Thanks again, Rich S |

1) Here is a page containing an image (http://media.photobucket.com/image/b...ture_st4pz.jpg) 2) Right click on the image and select the option to view the image in its own window 3) Right click on the image to copy its URL to your clipboard (or copy it from your browser's address bar). In this case the URL is http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w...ture_st4pz.jpg Note: the URL in #3 is similar to that in #2 but one displays surrounding page content while the other does not. If you were to use the URL in #2 in the URL to Image field you would get a white page - a bug that I'll address in our next release since it should error gracefully. 4) Paste the URL into the "URL to Image" field when adding an image in your garage. 5) Add a caption and click upload. This should retrieve the image from the remote server, resize it if needed, and save it on your site's server. If something else is occurring and causing a white page please PM me with the steps needed reproduce the problem along with the URL you are entering in the "URL to Image" field. Thanks! Mark |
