Add-On Releases - CND Garage - Timeslips

Description
CND Garage Timeslips is a garage/timeslip add on for vbulletin. Although it looks like phpbbgarage this is NOT a port, it is 100% my own code. I just modeled the layout to look like it.
Users can add as many vehicles, timeslips and images that the admin allows. The admin can define the amounts per site or per usergroup. Images are stored in the filesystem and thumbnails are automatically created as the image is uploaded.

Main Features

• No vb template modification needed (except to add link to navigation/community)
• Ajax driven menu's to keep load time down for very large lists of makes/models
• Button images are attached to style so that each style can have their own images
• 99.9% of the text is phrased so that it can be translated for multinational sites
• User's vehicles shown in their profile (vb 3.7+)
• vboption used for type of garage, to help aid in change it from a car to a motorcycle, atv, etc garage system
• Easily import data from vbgarage

NEW FEATURES IN 2.0!!!!

• New navbar menu, dropdown vehicle options and dropdown administrator options to clean up the layout
• On the fly watermarking, text and image
• Run garage outside of the forum directory
• Image resizing, 3 sizes of images, link on lytebox to open large image
• Trim field, vehicle class and purchase date added to the vehicle data
• Vehicle of the day automatic cron added
• Vehicle of the month setting with customizable image

Installation
Instructions, tips and more are now in the online documentation as well as an included chm file.
Both are linked in the read me file.

The garage is developed on vb 3.8.3 and tested back to 3.7.0. The garage will run on PHP 4.4.7+ compiled with GD/GD2 and MySQL 4.1.x+

I am currently working on an importer for the old timeslips database.

Additional options for the garage like dyno charts, modifications and lots more are included in the commercial version at CND Systems

Added
The vba_vehicle_display.xml is a vbadvanced module to add a verticle column with vehicles, can be either latest vehicles, random vehicles or the featured vehicle. Once imported you can modify the module to change the number of vehicles displayed. This only works with the 2.x series.
The forum_home_2_0_2.xml file is a vb product which will display garage images on your forum home page. It has options for the location and number of images which is set through the ACP vboptions section. This only works with the 2.x series.
The postbit_user_garage-1_4_1.xml is a vb product which will add a link to the user garage in the postbit. Configure this on the Garage General Settings vboptions tab.

Ok I attached an image of an error. A user was uploading his vehicle info and when he clicked to submit it he was directed back to the login page. Maybe due to a timeout because he took so long to add the info. The vehicle showed up as having no owner.

Ah thanks, that makes sense now. I didn't understand how the no owner vehicles were being created. I was just checking to make sure they had permissions and an id when they go to add the vehicle, but not after submit. Since their session timed out, they were submitted at userid 0.
I'll fix that right now and post it up

The garage.php file in 1.0.3 is the old one that cause red x's in the images.

[Dylanblitz]

No, since you are at 1.0.2 then you just need to upload 2 files to your server.
garage_func_var.php
garage_vehicle.php

Thats weird, I thought I had the right file in there. I just uploaded a new one with the right garage.php file in it.

This is a great mod and glad to see it. But, I'm having a few problems installing it on 3.8.1 When I upload all the files and go to Plugins/Products, manage product > add/import product and I choose the garage xml file all seems to go well with no errors. After the install I now have *[garage_settings]* on my lefthand admin cp and inside it, there's *[garage_make]*, etc. When I click on garage_manage, I only have 2 OK buttons. Any help is greatly appreciated!
