Major Additions - vBPortfolio Lite

vBPortfolio Lite is the "Lite" version of the still in-development full version. This version is completely free.

Features:

• Template
• Phrases with Custom Phrasegroup
• Uses a repeat method for display all entries.
• Pagination
• Settings
• ACP Backend:
  • Listing
  • Add
  • Edit*
  • Delete*
  • Reset
• Version Check

* ACP backend currently does not work. Bugs have been found that hinder use of this feature, but the rest is stable.

Known Bugs:

There are two bugs that haven't been touched. There is one bug that is partially complete and needs some tweaking. The page navigation has been completely rewritten to include less code and better performance.

Patch Released
For an immediate fix for users with entries not showing up when they are added a patched portfolio.php has been uploaded. To install the patch version please overwrite the portfolio.php file on your server. Than in your vBPortfolio settings, please turn pagination OFF. (set this setting to no)

When installing, this will add 2 plugins and add a 1 entry into a mysql table, and add 1 table.

Edit/Delete Bug:

This bug does not call data from the database. We are working hard on fixing this.

Compatible with vB:

3.6 RC2+

3.5.4+ Version available later.

Hack Idea: Steve M
Code Idea: King Kovifor
Coding Help: Chroder, Chris M, various other coders.

Note:

That as of now, all vBPortfolio Lite installations have hard coded HTML. We have not tested and or figured out how to use a template for this section.

Future Lite Features:
ACP Required Feilds
Display Options (what to display and alternative method)

Could this also be used to post "projects" dealing with car parts and audio installations? I could see it being helpful that way too.

vBPortfolio can be used for anything your mind can think of. As you have the option in your settings for this hack, to call the portfolio whatever you want.

You may also rename the file and all links will be changed within the file as it's an ACP setting.
