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 latest image block is down too far, it's actually looks like the right column block is pushing it down.

I also noticed that the latest images, are not the latest images. I've uploaded a few (see my garage chrisfromwa) All the shots of the car in red were ones I uploaded the other day. But they never appeared in the latest image.

One last thing I noticed, is the categories, all the totals are 1?

Any ideas?
Here is a screenshot of what I'm talking about
The latest image block is down too far, the actual 'latest image' isn't the latest image. They seem to be stuck from some point in time. Same with forumhome, it's the same images over and over no matter what I upload I never see anything new there.

And the categories all say (1)

Update: So on my forum home, the only way I can get one of my new images to display is if I delete the current image that keeps showing. So a new image is finally showing, but it's still just repeating this one image over and over.

It should be selecting any random image from all the garages right?


Just found another bug, When posting a comment on a image. I get the following error

The error is saying you don't have the garage_func_var.php file in the forums includes directory.

I haven't fixed the comment error in the files yet. Here is the fix
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=664

The block is down further because the right side column above it is longer then the left. It's set to line up vertically.

Do you have the page caching turned on? If you do, try turning it off and see if it fixes the images. I've had some problems with the caching, my first go at caching the way I did it and it didn't work out the way I wanted.

Turning the cache off, fixes the latest image block. Also on forum home, is the 'random image' using the same query as the 'latest image'? because I noticed that the images appear to be the same ones that are displayed in the Latest Image block.

I would really like forumhome to just randomly select any image from any garage in the database. Seeing the same images over and over, is not making users want to click.

Thanks for the fix on the comments too, that's all working now.

Do I need to upload that file into my server? I uploaded the downloaded file as instructed. Just want to make sure I'm doing it correctly.
