Multiple Cars/Garages for vBGarage

I wrote some code today. I'm using some code snippets and the basic logic that magnus sent me. I believe the author was Action-N and magnus. Thanks again to both of them for sharing. We needed some logic, code, and templates to do this addition and again they cheerfully provided them.

vBGarage public release will be an adaptation using the above logic, some edited code, and some edited templates. If you have seen those branchs of the code, you may see some similarities and some differences in the adaptation.

You can see what I have so far at my Computer Rigs Forum. I have two garages set up to view. I really need a few testers to register and login to test using the garage to provide feedback on addition work.

There are database changes, template changes, template additions, and an updated vbgarage.php so far. URL's are also affected by including/passing addition variables.

Comments are needed in this thread, please give us your two sense and we'll see where the chips fall.

Here's the list of changes so far...

A bit off topic, but if its not to much trouble, how did you get the google ads in their under the users list of modifications on their personal page? I'd like to put a <hr> break in ther like you have, then under that, list some paid links of some sort!

It's just template edits in the correct places, not difficult. My motorcycle site is running 4.0.3 and my computer site is running the upcoming vBGarage (4.1.0?). Depending on which site you are referring to, the google ads do go in different places, but with a little more detail, we could get ya going.

For the upcoming release, I'm considering leaving markers in the code as comments to suggest the google placement. Honestly, the template were rewritten to be specifically more SEO friendly and target the ads. Thanks to JoeyChgo for his time and suggestions doing the optimization!

Ah ok, something like this with the google ads, but it will host regular text links instead of the google ads!

I've not upgraded to any newer version, so I'm not sure if that will make a difference or not?

Ah OK, I've dealt with those issues you pointed out... I think. Should be in a previous posts.

Thanks

Actually thank *you* for the hard work! Oh and I just checked the other fixes. It looks great now that the php and other code tags don't warp the page.

Is there anything in particular on vbgarage you want us to debug? If not I'll just go ahead and test things at random.
