My question is that I run a dog forum, so how can I change vBgarage to something like 'vBDogHouse'...and how can I change the text fields that are defaulted at make, model, year...etc....to something like "Number of dogs you own, breed, names, age, etc"

Thanks

Edit the phrases.

This is one of the best hacks ever

I need a little help, I hope this hasn't already been posted...
I started to install this a while back, then ended up upgrading my vB to 3.0.1... so now when I try to run the install, I get this error message---

Database error in vBulletin 3.0.1:

Invalid SQL:
CREATE TABLE vbgarage_images (
`vbgarageid` smallint(6) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
`userid` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
`name` varchar(50) NOT NULL default '',
`data` longblob NOT NULL,
`type` varchar(50) NOT NULL default '',
PRIMARY KEY (`vbgarageid`)
) TYPE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=1

mysql error: Table 'vbgarage_images' already exists

mysql error number: 1050

Unfortunately, I can't get past that to finish the rest of the install... how do I do it manually?
LOL I've read the install.php, and I see the queries, but I don't know exactly what to do with them, or how to tell which ones I need?

[cinq]

You already have the neccessary tables created, as well as the phrases, settinggroup/settings and templates when you first installed it on vb3.

Does it not work in vb3.0.1 after your upgrade that instigated you to try to run an install for it again ?

edit : woo just realised this got HOTM for May. Congrats Magnus

[maggie]

Everything seems to work (except that I haven't put it on all the styles yet, I don't want everyone to see it til I'm sure it's right)... only thing I KNOW is wrong at this point is that it doesn't show up in the admincp-- vB options, so I can't check who can upload how many pictures, that kind of thing...
I don't want to adjust all of the picture names, either, til I'm sure...

[cinq]

It's highly likely due to your upgrade resulting in replacing/overwriting the old php files.

This hack required a few file edits, ( ADMINCP/USERGROUP.PHP, INCLUDES/INIT.PHP ) so you may have to readd those file edit changes before it works again

Everything else *should* work fine.

Hope that helped.

[maggie]

I started over from scratch after the upgrade, and added all the file edits... you sure it doesn't sound like it left some tables intact, and won't skip past the "done" ones to one/some that got changed by the upgrade or something?

[cinq]

There were file changes in the vb3->vb3.0.1 upgrade in init.php but i doubt it will affect this hack.
I installed this hack on 3.0.1 direct without any problem.

Do you have access to phpMyAdmin or something to view your current database ?
If so, check to see if the following tables are there :

vbgarage_users
vbgarage_comments
vbgarage_images

If they are there, your tables are fine.

Then go to the Settinggroup table, check to see if u have a 'vbgarage' entry.

Go to your settings table. check to see if u have the following entries :

vbgenable
vbgcomments
vbgmaxupload
vbgmaxfilesize

Hint: sort by varname in desc order, so these should be listed first.

If these are all there, there shouldn't be a problem of you as admin not having the option to give access to vbgarage to specific usergroups in your admincp.

[maggie]

LOL Ok, I downloaded phpmyadmin, now I'm thoroughly lost! Guess I have some reading to do, before I know what tables I have...

[cinq]

Doesn't your host have phpmyadmin installed already ?

how to enable rig ratings ?

Thnx.

[maggie]

Oops! Yeah, they do, I was looking for it in the wrong place...
I don't see anything in the settinggroup about vbgarage, though?

[cinq]

maggie, then create a new row for it

In your phpMyAdmin page, click on the SQL tab.
Input this in the box :

INSERT INTO settinggroup (grouptitle, displayorder, volatile) VALUES ('vbgarage', '650', 1);

And click go.
If properly queried, you should now have a settinggroup 'vbgarage'.

[maggie]

Ah... now I have it in the admincp-- vboptions , but I don't have anything to set...
vbgenable
vbgcomments
vbgmaxupload
vbgmaxfilesize
still aren't in my settings...

[maggie]

Ok, I went searching and found the details and numbers for those, now I've asked 'em to check it out for me... hopefully it's all working now...
I guess ya'll will hear if it's not...
