VB Pro Garage Timeslips · **Released**: 02-24-2010

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

some usergroups get a message saying they dont have permission when trying to add there car but all the permissions in the admincp are set the same as a usergroup that can use it any idea`s what the problem is

cTak · #**953** 10-07-2012, 02:10 PM

Thanks for the mod.

I just upgraded to the latest ver, running on 4.1.8, in my nav, the 2nd tab is to the garage, well the link now goes to / rather than /garage.php or garage.html

I can type it in manually and the garage is there, but the link in the nav is not working. Any idea?

Are you using advanced or basic permissions? If you are setting the usergroup permissions in the advanced section, make sure you have it selected in the garage general settings.

Question! I want to place a Google AD in the main Garage window. Tried to paste the google code in Garage ACP but does not show. I hade before an Affiliate AD in the same place and that one worked fine (same size). Any idea?

Picture with google ad is Photoshopped.

What is it doing? Is there an error or bad text or just a blank space?

bosken · #**958** 10-11-2012, 04:57 PM

Oh sorry, just blank space. Nothing there.

Hmm, I put your code in my dev system and it seems to work for me?

Attachment 141670

Maybe it's the html part, try opening the includes/garage_func_var.php and find

PHP Code:


			
    if ($vbulletin->options[garage_desc_html] == "1")
    {
    $welcomemsg = $bbcode_parser->do_parse(unhtmlspecialchars($vbulletin->options[garagewelcome]), $do_html = true, $do_smilies = true, $do_bbcode = true, $do_imgcode = true, $do_nl2br = true, $cachable = false);
    } else {
    $welcomemsg = $bbcode_parser->do_parse(unhtmlspecialchars($vbulletin->options[garagewelcome]), $do_html = false, $do_smilies = true, $do_bbcode = true, $do_imgcode = true, $do_nl2br = true, $cachable = false);
    }

and replace it with

PHP Code:


			
//    if ($vbulletin->options[garage_desc_html] == "1")
//    {
    $welcomemsg = $bbcode_parser->do_parse(unhtmlspecialchars($vbulletin->options[garagewelcome]), $do_html = true, $do_smilies = true, $do_bbcode = true, $do_imgcode = true, $do_nl2br = true, $cachable = false);
//    } else {
//    $welcomemsg = $bbcode_parser->do_parse(unhtmlspecialchars($vbulletin->options[garagewelcome]), $do_html = false, $do_smilies = true, $do_bbcode = true, $do_imgcode = true, $do_nl2br = true, $cachable = false);
//    }

Let me know if that helps

I'm running into 1 small problem though, not sure what I did wrong. When I go into my garage, I have some text under my navigation.

The new garage button has the same funky text too.
I uploaded all the images and files and when I uploaded the plugin I had rewrite set to yes.

Any ideas?

If you want to give me temp admin I'll take a look, or post a screen shot of what you are seeing. "Funky text" is hard to troubleshoot without seeing it

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
