I just upgraded with no problems, just had to revert back to the original template code. Yes that is so much better now with thumbnail support. Just had to remember to reupload the pictures. Now that I only have to add custom fields I could probably work towards a auto specific hack for this.

I found that you didn't add "where are they?" for vB Garage in the functions_online.php.

I also started making a htl file for this, but maybe you should be the one to make one magnus.

Is it me or are there no admin controls for this? This is important -- for example....if someone uploads an inappropriate image, how do I delete it?

[blitzkrg]

I cant get this to work at all.
i get this error running the install script
mysql error: You have an error in your SQL syntax near ';
' at line 9
i see others have as well.
i tried to add everything by hand, and it seems to have taken then with phpmyadmin.
but still no luck.
when i go to usercp, i dont see anything relating to vbgarage, and when i go into user groups to turn on permissions, the box it blank, i only have a yes/no opt. even if i select yes and save, nothing shows up in the user cp..

help?

You didn't follow the instructions completely. Read step 5 in the vbgarage_readme.txt.

5. In the ADMINCP, under Languages & Phrases -> Phrase Manager, click "Edit" on any random phrase, then click Save. You do not need to make any modifications. This is to update the phrases database to accept the phrases added during the automated install. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT!

As stated before, this is all being added. It's not that it's been "forgotten", it's just being slated for a later release. Expect it very soon.

Yup. I tried to keep this first release to as few file edits as possible. The next version will be full blown. Options, etc..

I don't support the HTL. I did at one point, but it's not really my cup of tea. You're more than welcome to create an HTL if you desire.

Ohh ok lol I thought I was missing something..........

Any chance of this getting integrated with Photopost? Instead of uploading images it would show thumbs you currently have and you select from those pics.

That would be cool for ppl with Photopost like me.

Anymore thought on this?

i did read them.. i did that step 3 times just to make sure.

Since I don't own/use Photopost, I don't see myself working on Photopost integration. Unless someone is going to buy me a license, that project will have to be a 3rd Party Add-On.

If you're not seeing anything, and you've done step 5, then you haven't inserted all the phrases. Make sure you've run all of these:

[SQL]
INSERT INTO phrase (languageid, varname, text, phrasetypeid) VALUES (0, 'vbgarage', 'vBGarage', 1);
INSERT INTO phrase (languageid, varname, text, phrasetypeid) VALUES (0, 'vbgarage_allowed_total', 'You are allowed a preset number of images. Once that limit is reached, you will no longer be able to upload. Delete existing pictures to regain upload ability.', 1);
INSERT INTO phrase (languageid, varname, text, phrasetypeid) VALUES (0, 'vbgarage_file', 'File', 1);
INSERT INTO phrase (languageid, varname, text, phrasetypeid) VALUES(0, 'vbgarage_footer', 'Powered by: <b>vBGarage</b> by magnus', 1)
INSERT INTO phrase (languageid, varname, text, phrasetypeid) VALUES(0, 'vbgarage_year', 'Year', 1);
INSERT INTO phrase (languageid, varname, text, phrasetypeid) VALUES(0, 'vbgarage_make', 'Make', 1);
INSERT INTO phrase (languageid, varname, text, phrasetypeid) VALUES(0, 'vbgarage_model', 'Model', 1);
INSERT INTO phrase (languageid, varname, text, phrasetypeid) VALUES(0, 'vbgarage_text', 'Text', 1);
INSERT INTO phrase (languageid, varname, text, phrasetypeid) VALUES(0, 'vbgarage_text_desc', '<a href=\"$vboptions[bburl]/misc.php?do=bbcode\">vB code</a> is <b>On</b><br /> <a href=\"$vboptions[bburl]/misc.php?do=showsmilies\">Smilies</a> are <b>On</b><br /> <a href=\"$vboptions[bburl]/misc.php?do=bbcode#imgcode\">[IMG]</a> code is <b>Off</b><br /> HTML code is <b>Off</b><br />', 1);
INSERT INTO phrase (languageid, varname, text, phrasetypeid) VALUES (0, 'vbgarage_uploaded_images', 'Uploaded Image(s)', 1);
INSERT INTO phrase (languageid, varname, text, phrasetypeid) VALUES(0, 'vbgarage_car', 'Car', 1);
INSERT INTO phrase (languageid, varname, text, phrasetypeid) VALUES(0, 'vbgarage_listtitle', 'Member vBGarage(s)', 1);
INSERT INTO phrase (languageid, varname, text, phrasetypeid) VALUES(0, 'vbgarage_edit', 'Edit vBGarage', 1);
INSERT INTO phrase (languageid, varname, text, phrasetypeid) VALUES (0, 'can_vbgarage', 'Can use vBGarage?', 3);
[/SQL]

Sorry. I guess it wasn't really a request; just wondering if anyone had given it any thought as a possible "a 3rd Party Add-On"

Great job on this, BTW. It's definately on my list after I upgrade to vb3.

I will prolly tackle it when I get my vb3 going. waiting for vbportal to be ready. :ermm:

Also, is this all searchable from members search? Like, say I want to find someone with a kaminari body kit, i can search for kaminari?

I may, however, do a Coppermine add-on. If I do, I'm sure it could be easily modified to accomodate PhotoPost.

At the moment? No. I'll look into search capabilities.
