Right now I'm working on adding the "vB Garage" to the users' profile. Check out my garage an see if you have any suggestions for an auto only garage.


my vB Garage

I can't hit page two to view the rest of the submissions. It goes back to page 1. Anyone else having that problem?

Download the vbgarage310.zip from the first post, extract vbgarage.php and overwrite your exsiting one with the new version.

Yes. Edit the upgrade_vbgarage310.php:

FIND:

PHP Code:

$styleid=$vboptions['styleid']; 


Change [high]$vboptions['styleid'];[/high] to whatever styleid you want to update.

but u didnt attach new one !

Correct. Mistake on my part, you need to download the vbgarage310.zip from the first post and extract the vbgarage.php from that file.

Yes, that's correct. Else, everytime you upload a picture you will be sent to View Garage. If you're uploading multiple pictures, that would be a serious PITA.
