In index.php:

FIND:

PHP Code:

// ### WELCOME MESSAGE ################################################# 


Add ABOVE:

PHP Code:

// START VBGARAGE HACK
// ### VBGARAGE #########################################################
$result_latest = $DB_site->query(" 
    SELECT vbgarage_images.* 
    FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "vbgarage_images 
    ORDER BY vbgarage_images.vbgarageid DESC 
    LIMIT 5 
"); 
     
while ($latest = $DB_site->fetch_Array($result_latest)) 
{ 
    eval('$latestbits .= "' . fetch_template('vbgarage_latestbits') . '";'); 
} 

$DB_site->free_result($result_latest); 
// END VBGARAGE HACK 


FIND:

PHP Code:

    'forumhome_subforumseparator_post'
); 


REPLACE with:

PHP Code:

    'forumhome_subforumseparator_post',
    'vbgarage_latestbits'
); 


In template FORUMHOME:

FIND:

$navbar

Add BELOW:

<!-- START VBGARAGE HACK -->
<table cellpadding="$stylevar[outerborderwidth]" cellspacing="0" border="0" class="tborder" width="$stylevar[tablewidth]" align="center"><tr><td>
<table cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%">
<tr>
	<td class="tcat" colspan="5"><b>$vbphrase[vbgarage_latest_uploads]</b></td>
</tr>
<tr>
$latestbits
</tr>
</table>
</td></tr></table>
<!-- END VBGARAGE HACK -->

That should do it.

Thanks!!!!!!! your the best!

Ugh --------- I cant find 'forumhome_subforumseparator_post'
); in the index file, right???????????????

[joeychgo]

ok, I found it --- im running vba so index really means forum.php to me

BUT........... when I did everything, I got this

Database error in vBulletin 3.0.0:

Invalid SQL:
SELECT vbgarage_images.*
FROM vbgarage_images
ORDER BY vbgarage_images.imageid DESC
LIMIT 5

mysql error: Unknown column 'vbgarage_images.imageid' in 'order clause'

mysql error number: 1054

Joey, you said "forum home page" so your VBadvanced has nothing to do with this- in this case "index.php" refers to the index.php in your vb3 root directory, not your vbadvanced index.php.

[SVTOA]

It sounds like you edited the wrong file, hence the database error. Revert or restore the file you edited and then apply the edits to /vbulletin/index.php (where "vbulletin" refers to your forums root directory- whatever that may be)

Thanks Magnus, your code worked great!

[Xabbu]

A couple Questions:

1. Is it possible to rename the vbgarage.php file to something else without a great deal of work? My forum isn't about cars...

2. How do I change the vBGarage phrase for the breadcrumb template? There doesn't seem to be a phrase for that somewhere.

magnus i dont know what im looking for......

i would like to just have it where users can upload image, removing the required fields in the "vbgarage.php?do=editgarage", how can i do this?

cuz i did remove the options, but when i go to upload a image, after i submit the attachment, i get a error:

"Please complete all the fields. Press the back button, correct the problem then try again."

and those fields arent there nemore.

Magnus,

I'd like to add a simple image within another table above the "Latest Uploads" one on the Garage main page (and preferably above the rest of the pages). What would I edit?

Thanks.
