vB Timeslip Database -for Automotive websites

This is the newest version of my Timeslip Database hack. If you don't have an automobile related website ya might as well stop reading here because this will probably be of no use to you.. But if you do, read on!

What does it do? This hack does a few things. First, it will add a separate "Vehicle Profile" page to your forum where your users can enter their type of vehicle, engine, tranny, tires, horsepower, best 60' time, 1/8 mile time, 1/4 mile time, upload thier timeslip and more. Once the data is entered the timeslips.php page will display the info sorted by the best times, highest trap speeds, highest horsepower #s, proof of ET, or ET brackets (user selectable).

You can also ban users from editing their Vehicle Profile. This comes in handy if you have some users who insist on entering false data into the Timeslip Database just to be funny. To use this feature, just click on the user's vehicle profile, then click "user options" and set "Can edit vehicle profile" to no. The user will still be able to edit his regular profile, but not his vehicle profile.


Features include:
*The ability to sort by:
-1/4 Mile ET
-1/4 Mile MPH
-1/8 Mile ET
-1/8 Mile MPH
-60' Time
-Horsepower
-Cars with proof of ET (actual timeslip)
-N/A cars only
-Username
-ET brackets
*Show the average ET, MPH, and HP for your site.
*Vehicle Profile (separate from user profile)
*Ability to ban users from editing their vehicle profile
*Users can upload their timeslip in the vehicle profile. (New!)
*Timeslip uploads can be disabled in the admincp. (New!)
*Admin can delete user's uploaded timeslip. (New!)
*Maximum width, height and filesize for timeslip uploads can be set in the admincp. (New!)
*Admin can set an ET for which a timeslip is required if user's ET is quicker. (New!)
*Installer

Support: (Updated: 8-6-05)
Due to my busy scedule and the release of vB 3.5 this version of the Timeslip Database will no longer be supported or developed. Please do not PM me with questions about when the next version will be released because I honestly have no idea.. But when I do start working on it I'll be sure to let you guys know.
Read more here:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=666

Please search this thread before posting questions. Theres a good chance that your question has already been posted and answered.

Also, reading through the old thread for vB Timeslip Database v1.3 can probably answer some of your questions about adding new features or customizing.

The VB2 version of this hack is located here:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=58076


Add-ons & How to's:
*Show the Top 5 ETs on your vB Advanced Homepage.
*Show the Top 5 ETs on your vB Advanced CMPS page. (by coolmody)
*Show the Top 5 ETs on your vBindex page. (by SVTBlackLight01)
*Change the default sort method
*Show the ET club that users belong to in the postbit.
*Show the 1/4 mile ET in the postbit only for users who have added it.
*Set permissions for editing the Vehicle Profile per usergroup.
*Require a link to the actual timeslip for all ETs that are 11.99 or quicker (for v2.0 only.. this comes standard in v2.1)


This hack has been confirmed to work with vB versions 3.0.0 - 3.0.8.

Many thanks to my beta testers: 350Chevy and Corsacrazy :up:


Version History:
v2.1: -Added the ability for users to upload timeslips in their vehicle profile. Added the ability for admins to require an actual timeslip for specified ETs. New Timeslip Database settings added to the admincp to control maximum upload sizes and turn the upload feature on & off. (current version)
(Check this post for more info about the new features.)
v2.0: -Ported hack over for VB3 and added a few new fields to the vehicle profile.
v1.3: -Added the ability to sort by ET brackets or "clubs". (ie. show 10 second cars only. 11 second cars only, 13 sec cars, etc).
v1.2: -Added a new action that will show the average ET, trap speed, and horsepower for your site.
v1.1: -Added the seperate vehicle profile page to input timeslip data. Added a few new fields to the vehicle profile page (race weight, track, D/A, mods, tranny type, etc). Added a "details" column to the Timeslip Database page which lets you view all vehicle profile fields when clicked.
v1.0: -Initial release. (VB2)


NOTE: If you've recently upgraded your forum software and you're having trouble with timeslips.php showing all users (regardless if they have an ET) or it not sorting correcty, Read This!


If you find this script useful please click install.

If you've restored the backup of DB to the state it was in before you ran the installer all of the settings and anything to do with the new version (2.X) of the timeslip hack should be gone (the previous versions didn't add any settings to the admincp). Once thats done, and fields 50-65 are clear, you should be able to run the script without errors.

OK I DID IT!!!! OMG I cant believe it I had to hack my database and remove all entries with timeslips (you are a very organized guy it was time consuming and quite easy a soon as I ran the succsesful installer I had up and running in 5 minutes.....

THANKS A LOT

and you can check it (with only one record now) at:

http://www.auto-mania.com.mx/foro/upload/timeslips.php?

now Ill add the hack to my portal page and one last question when I press 1/4 de milla (quarter of mille on the nav bar) while I am at the Vbadvanced it takes me to the root folder and looks for timeslips.php so I get a NOT found also It happens in my photopost navbar. If I click on the forum it lloks into the vb folder so it works... any hints on how to fix this small prob?

Best regards

[EvilLS1]

Glad ya got it working.

To fix the problem with the navbar links in your navbar template find this:

		<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="timeslips.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[timeslips]</a></td>

Replace it with this:

		<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="$vboptions[bburl]/timeslips.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[timeslips]</a></td>

I read the majority of this post and didn't see this problem mentioned... hopefully I didn't miss it.

Single digit timeslips are being sorted to the end. I have some guys with 7 second timeslips on my page that are being listed last while the 10.00 guys are listed first.

Also, the "sort by single digit ETs" doesn't seem to work.

Has there been a fix for this?

** EDIT ** Adding a 0 before the single digit times makes them show up correctly. Hopefully this is an easy fix.

We're using the hack at http://t6p.com/forums/timeslips.php

Thanks!

From the first post:

For those who have recently upgraded to vB 3.0.2 or later: If you're having trouble with timeslips.php showing all users (regardless if they have an ET) or it not sorting correcty, Read This!

KidCharlemane,
Check the second paragraph of this post:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=274

Upload and run TD302.php. That will solve both of the sorting problems.

Excellent.. thanks.. I scanned like 200 replys of this message and never saw the solution. Glad to see it's been fixed. For a car forum, the villagers love this hack.

Always check the first post. I try to keep this hack as bug free as possible and whenever I find something that needs to be fixed I'll always make a note of it in the first post and send out an update notice to those who clicked install.

{edit} Nice website btw.. I love GNs and T-Type Regals. Best sleepers ever.

Oh yeah? Whats it run in the 1/4? I'll post my slip if you'll post yours.

[PranK]

Hey Dewayne,

I have just re-installed my forums and a heap of hacks and I am getting a plank page on profile/php?do=edittimeslip. timeslips.php displays correctly tho and I have modified the templates to use my fields 80-96 as opposed to 50-56 (or whatever they are).

The only thing I can think of is that I didn't have 'modifytimeslip' before or the 'custom timeslip pic' db table... maybe i have skipped a crucial 'upgrade' step or something... any help?

Thanks mate.

Christian,
Check and make sure that you added this bit of code to profile.php:

// ############################### EDIT VEHICLE PROFILE #######################
if ($_REQUEST['do'] == 'edittimeslip')
{

  if ($bbuserinfo[userid]==0  or $bbuserinfo[tdban]==0) 
{
	print_no_permission();
  }


	unset($tempcustom);
	exec_switch_bg();
	// Get Custom profile fields
	$customfields = array();
	fetch_timeslipfields(0);

if ($vboptions[allowtimeslipupload]){
		$timeslippic = $DB_site->query_first("
			SELECT userid, dateline
			FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "customtimeslippic
			WHERE userid = $bbuserinfo[userid]
		");

		if ($timeslippic)
		{
			$timeslippicchecked[1] = HTML_CHECKED;
			$timeslippicchecked[0] = '';
		}
		else
		{
			$timeslippicchecked[1] = '';
			$timeslippicchecked[0] = HTML_CHECKED;
		}		
}

	// draw cp nav bar
	construct_usercp_nav('vehicleprofile');

	$navbits[''] = $vbphrase['edit_timeslip'];
	$templatename = 'modifytimeslip';
}
// ############################### start update ###############################
if ($_POST['do'] == 'updatevehicleprofile')
{
	
  if ($bbuserinfo[userid]==0  or $bbuserinfo[tdban]==0) 
{
	print_no_permission();
  }
        $userfields = verify_vehiclefields(0);
	// insert custom user fields
	if (!empty($userfields))
	{
		$DB_site->query("UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "userfield SET userid=$bbuserinfo[userid]$userfields WHERE userid=$bbuserinfo[userid]");
	}
if ($vboptions[allowtimeslipupload]){

	globalize($_POST, array('timeslippic' => INT, 'avatarurl' => STR));

	if ($timeslippic==1)
	{
		require_once('./includes/functions_upload.php');
		process_image_upload('timeslippic', $avatarurl);
	}
	else if ($timeslippic==0)
	{
		$DB_site->query("DELETE FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "customtimeslippic WHERE userid = $bbuserinfo[userid]");
	}
}

$url = "timeslips.php?$session[sessionurl]";
	eval(print_standard_redirect('redirect_updatethanks'));

}

If it still doesn't work, check the spelling of the template name and the contents of the modifytimeslip template.
