Description
VB Pro Garage Timeslips (formerly CND Garage/Timeslips) is a free vehicle and timeslips add on for vBulletin 4. This is a great way to allow members to show off their rides, whether they are cars, motorcycles, atv's, etc. Site administrators have dozens of options to tailor the way the garage is displayed and the number of vehicles, images and timeslips the user can enter. User vehicle creation is done through a simple screen with dropdowns and simple text fields. Users can enter either miles or km and system will automatically calculate differences for front page statistics.

** New Features **

* SEO Friendly URLs (htaccess only)
* Page Caching - physical html files which make a HUGE reduction in sql queries
* Front Categories - a category system as an alternate front page to the block layout. I believe it will increase the garage ranking in search engines greatly when used with SEO URL's and the included dynamic meta tags.
* Thread Creation - Automatically create new threads in the forum of your choosing with the text of your choosing when a new vehicle is created in the garage.

Main Features

* No vb template modification needed
* Ajax driven menu's to keep load time down if you have a very large lists of makes/models
* Usergroup level permissions to set the amount of vehicles, images, timeslips allowed
* 99.9% of the text is phrased so that it can be translated for multinational sites
* On the fly image/text watermarking ability to make sure images are tied to your site
* Lytebox image presentation

Installation
Instructions, tips and more are now in the included chm file. If you have problems with the chm I have the document published at:
http://www.vbprogarage.com/forums/docs/html_vb4_ts_300/

The quick and dirty install:
1) Upload all files in the upload folder
2) Import vb_pro_garage.xml into Product Manager
3) Import vb_pro_garage_language_english.xml into Languages & Phrases
4) If you want all makes and models I've collected, import vb_pro_garage_vehicles^^new_install_only.xml into Product Manager

Post Installation
So you don't have to find it in the instructions. After install, there is a button up top in the navbar. This button by default is admin only. This is so you can configure and test without having to close the garage. When you are ready to deploy to the community:
ACP->Settings->Options->Garage General Settings - Set Garage Menu Button to Enabled.

The garage is developed on vb 4.0.7 and tested back to 4.0.0. The garage will run on PHP 5.x+ compiled with GD/GD2 and MySQL 5.x+

Additional options for the garage like adding featured businesses that support your site, fuel tracking, dyno charts, modifications and lots more are included in the commercial version.

Many thanks to Coroner for his stylebridge which led me on a path that saved me hours and hours of template editing

-the color question
-mileage
-purchase date
-no year
-no timeslips
-and just have one of the model/make dropdowns

Is there anyway at all i could do this as maybe a custom non-vehicle garage? I'm not a coder so i dont wanna screw anything up. It would probably be really useful for others like me that want to use this to display a collection.

Thank you!!

You can remove all the fields you mentioned besides the make/model. Those two are tied in too much to remove one without screwing up a lot of stuff. it would be possible only if you tweaked some of the code, kind of messy though.
Timeslips can be turned off through the ACP settings. Garage Page Settings

If you want to give me temp admin I can go in there and remove the fields and change any of the language you want.

So i did everything right to the " T ".. but when I import the xml (which loads just fine), I click on my forum homepage and get this meesage:

Warning: require_once([path]/includes/garage_plugin_func.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in [path]/includes/class_bootstrap.php(517) : eval()'d code on line 84

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/home/content/68/6995168/html/includes/garage_plugin_func.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/php5/lib/php') in /home/content/68/6995168/html/includes/class_bootstrap.php(517) : eval()'d code on line 84


once I delete the plugin the site goes back to normal. Any idea?

It looks like the includes/garage_plugin_func.php file didn't get moved over to the server.
It should be at <your forum directory>/includes/garage_plugin_func.php

EDIT:
Oh sorry, just read it again. You also need to update the garage_directory.php file with the absolute path to your forum root.

So open the file and change
PHP Code:
//$forum_directory = 'C:/doc_root/www/domain/forums/'; 
to whatever the path is, something like

PHP Code:
$forum_directory '/home/xxxxhtmlpathxxxx/forums/'
btw, might want to edit the post and remove your domain name and directory structure

You only needto uncomment the forum directory and modify the variable to the path of your forum.

The Garage URL field should have the url of the garage files. Like http://www.yoursite.com/vgb/
