I think this has been talked about... Using the VB system to store via disk space... Magnus would need to answer this if this will be in version 3.2 or a later release.

Ummm.....you guys know how I have my "latest uploads" on my forum home? Is their anyway to remove that or can someone give me the reversed steps? Our server is only a 400 Mhz. We used to get like around 5 new members a day, since I put that up, were only geting around 1, if that. It takes sometime to load with my high speed cable, just to think what the people with the 56K or even the 28K are thinking.

Thanks to whoever responds! Need this removed ASAP! You guys be the judge, does my boar load slow because it has to wait for the images to download? www.muscle-mustangs.com/forums

try removing this from your forumhome template --- I *think* this will work...

I am running a site that isn't car orientated and want vbgarage to be called something else in the address bar ... how many changes would I need to make to allow that? ... would I have to find and replace every instance in every file or could I just rename "vbgarage.php"

Thanks

No -- it was a yes to changing every instance. Mostly I think you have to change the phrases ---


Magnus----------I might suggest - for a future build -- you make it so the garage name is easily changable/selectable from the admin cp -

[Odoin]

its really not that hard to change it to whatever you want... there is few spots in the PHP file and a few templates you can do a search for .

Since I've never really contributed anything to vBulletin.org, your question seemed as good a place for me to start.

Attached is the uninstallation instructions for this hack. Unfortunately I am not knowledgable enough to automate this script, so my instructions are for manual removal.

Hope it helps!
