VbGarage 3.5

[jandm]

Ok, this is really strange.

I have noticed certain functions on my forum stop working for example the search function is disabled yet i have not disabled it and i can't seem to enable it, also quick links is the same. In the wysiwyg message editor certain things in there are no longer working for example the font size just doesn't work at all, you click it and nothing happens.

Now the latest thing i am noticing is that i can no longer find the garage settings in the admin CP What on earth is going on with my board :eek: where are the settings so i can increase the number of pictures members can upload to their garage.

Someone please help this is driving me insane arrrgggggg :D

[sml]

im not sure about your random board issues... I didnt run into those, what is your site?

your garage settings can be found in admincp -> vb options -> vbulletin garage

[sml]

I got alot of emails telling me that pictures wouldn't upload... people were trying to load pictures fresh off the camera without compressing or resizing! So I did a quick template edit to help members know there is a LIMIT! :D

in the vbgarage_editgarage template i found


Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.
---------------



and after this


Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.

i placed this


Code:
---------------

of course if you do you would want to reflect your max size!

hey guys i am having a problem installing this hack, once i add the code to navbar template i get this under my navbar

href="http://www.myforum/forum/usercp.php">User CP

and when i click on VBgarage in my navbar it tells me i have a 404 error and that it cant find the file vbgarage.php

i uploaded the php file to my fourm/ directory where the index.php and showthread.php files are, can anyone be of assistance to me?

thanks in advance

[sml]

can we see your navbar template?

[SAReefer]

yeah sure must i post the whole thing?

[SAReefer]

thanks...

[sml]

is th the current template where it is leaving the user cp code below the navbar?

also - can i have a link to your forumhome?

[sml]

I am assuming the space left here is where you inserted the code, doind it there you have broke a link, that is why your user cp is showing strange and your not linking right



Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.

close the above code to look like this:


Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.

Then I would place your garage code after the members link and would resemble below:


Code:

i have a child style for my two styles that i use to test things out before i put them into action, that way... if you mess it up beyond recognition. you can always go get the working template from your parent style and try again :0)

[SAReefer]

okay that got rid of this under my navbar thanks!!

href="http://www.myforum.com/forum/usercp.php">User CP

but when i click on VBgarage iy still says 404 not found /vbgarage.php

so i moved the vbgarage to the root directory and i get this

Warning: require_once(./global.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/sareefer/public_html/vbgarage.php on line 67

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required './global.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/sareefer/public_html/vbgarage.php on line 67

is there some how i can change the link in the navbar?

So change the path the in the href for vbgarage.php to /forums/vbgarage.php.

[SAReefer]

okay i was contemplating this but wasn't sure could you just verify for me pls so i need to go from this

href="vbgarage.php?$session[sessionurl]

to this

href="/forums/vbgarage.php?$session[sessionurl]

[GotVtec]

Yes.

[SAReefer]

okay i did that but i still get the same error?

[SAReefer]

okay i am making progress

[sml]

im not the best with paths, snd my site is forums.mysite.com rather then mysite.com/forums

do you need the first / in there?

Anyone have an issue where page 2 won't load?

The link to go to page 2 is: http://www.themazdaforum.com/vbgarage.php?do=$_REQUEST[do]&perpage=25&page=2

when it should be more like:
http://www.themazdaforum.com/vbgarage.php?do=list&perpage=25&page=2

problem is the numbers to the left of the username start back at 1.. unless that is as expected.

Wish I could search this thread for "page 2" but search term too short :P

I didn't install or mod vbgarage but from what I know the only mod to the install was to use lightbox for images.

[SVTCobraLTD]

What link? And what templete would you add it to?

http://yoursite.com/forums/garage.php is what you need to link it to.

You need to add it to your "header" where all your buttons are already. But you will either need to make a button or add to a drop down list.

[templaters]

I wish their was a way that when someone uploads a photo to vbgarage, that vbgarage would automatically resize it down to a set size, I have a large auto forum, and I constantly get questions from members saying I can't upload my photos to vb garage, most of them upload directly from a digital camera, and the photo size is like 1.5 meg etc, if I allowed all to upload 1.5meg per photo my server would fill up automatically.

So is their a hack that fixes this, I know vbgarage has a feature that states max file upload size, so I set that to something small like 500.00 k but instead of resizing the big photo down to the max allowed size it just acts like it is uploading but no photo is uploaded or saved.

I know I can say to the people resize your photos before uploading and then I get question, how do i resize phtos, etc.

I really need help and I am willing to pay for help

Thanks

I have that in my Navbar correctly...

What I want to do is diplay some of the garages on the forum homepage like shown in the screen shot of this mod. Any ideas how I would do this?

[DieselTruck]

I have figured out why my garage isn't working. I have a forum redirect in my server since I can't transfer my primary for 60 days.

After creating a Garage. When you click the user's name it wants to take you here:

http://www.dieselhaulin.com/vbgarage.php?do=view&id=1

But, It should take you here:

http://www.dieselhaulin.com/forums/vbgarage.php?do=view&id=1

Any ideas how I can change this?

[DieselTruck]

The problem is. When you create a garage, the host is redirected from my primary to dieselhaulin.com. And my template doesn't reconize that site. Can anybody configure my template to do this?

Anybody want to give it a shot?

Well, the trouble you are describing looks like already known problem, that appears even with lower versions of vB. Take time and read the topic carefully, you may find the solution.

Can someone please clean this topic of duplicate questions? It is getting too long and difficult to find info just because of these.

Thank you VERY much

Even though it is in the phases it does not change the name of the page seen here in red

http://aycu34.webshots.com/image/51433/2000741849990255099_rs.jpg

so this must be in a template somewhere? or a php file.

Could someone post where to change this so mine can say Car Photos.

Thank you,

It installed with no problems, none. I tried photoplog but had issues with it, so vbgarage works great

[Za4a Tuner]

I'm not really sure, but open the vbgarage.php-file and search 3-times for =>


Code:

near to this you'll find: => 'vBGarage'
Change this to => 'CarPhotos'

I'd also kick in a bit for this. Something with file system attachement storeage, defineable fields, in-CP garage editing, and of course multiple cars.

make sure your users have the option to edit their garages. Of course admins can edit any still, but the "edit vbgarage" link is gone from their userCP on 3.7.0 and I'm not sure what it linked to in order to put it in manually.

A user has been deleted that "had" a garage entry...so how would you delete the blank entry in the list?

[trilogy33]

A user has been deleted that "had" a garage entry...so how would you delete the blank entry in the list?

Found the answer:

1. View the vBGarage list with the entry missing e.g. entry #6
2. View the page source and find the entry
3. Find the related id: e.g. id=47
4. Enter: http://www.(yoursite).co.uk/forums/vbgarage.php?do=view&id=47
5. Select "Delete" from the [Delete] [Edit] options.

The next page says "...missing a required field", but it does actually delete the entry from the list.

Overall I guess it's better to edit the database but, for those not proficient at that, use the above!! ;)

Hi Everyone,

I've posted this elsewhere to, but I thought it would be worthwhile to post it here too as this is the latest garage mod available, and the author hasn't been online since 2006.

Anyway, I've posted an advertisement for an updated garage system (link (http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?p=1554653)) and I'm going to start to compile technical and functional requirements with the goal of providing a product to install for everyone who wants to participate.

If you want to kick in a few bucks to get a say in what it turns out like, and to actually get a copy, please PM me here or email me -- garage at f800riders dot org. The more contributors, the more money, the more elaborate we can be.

Alternatively, if you are looking to get paid to develop an updated version of this add-on, please contact me as well.

Thanks everyone, and I hope this isn't out of line. :)

So can anyone definitively answer the question as to how to get images to upload and show on this mod?

It seems to be the questions most asked, and about the only one not answered!

[FJCCrazy]

Does anyone know how and where the code needs to be modified to allow the thumbnails at the bottom of the edit page to wrap to a second row? I'd like it to wrap after 8 images.

I've looked extensively and unfortunately, my programming skills are limited, but I can follow clear directions.

Please post if you know.

You have to reduce the photo size until it uploads. Once that happens, it's all good!

Mustang...I had that problem too, but it seemed to solve itself.

I made no changes to files after upload, the only thing I could think was that it was a permissions error on the server or an issue with hosts/bandwidth limits?

Mustang...I had that problem too, but it seemed to solve itself.

I made no changes to files after upload, the only thing I could think was that it was a permissions error on the server or an issue with hosts/bandwidth limits?

Well I fixed the problem. I had a live chat with my host and they fixed the issue. They said it was an XSS problem so its working! How can we control the size of the inage on vBgarage? I noticed that we can't set the pictures on how big we want them.

Hi, works great so far in 3.6.8 :)

Question.... is there a way to show 4 or 5 random thumbs from the Garage on the forum index page?

Maybe I'm missing a setting somewhere...?

Anyone know how to do this? :(

Hey there people.

Some of you remember me from a few pages back. (http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?p=1382719#post1382719) regarding the modifications I made to vBGarage on http://forums.GenerationDub.com.

I don't exactly know if this is the right place to post this... but since there were over 100 requests for my modifications.... I have been developing a new plugin to "take over" where vbGarage left off. I call it "vHoist" or Virtual Hoist.

Basically the plugin fully integrates into your forum software providing seamless integration without the limits of other plugins with similar features.

We are currently looking for select Vbulletin sites to finish off our final testing before releasing it to the public on vBulletin.org. Obviously it is going to be a free plugin.

We are currently looking for candidates that have a current, active, vBulletin forum that is looking for a "Garage" type plugin but does not currently have one installed. If this is you, or you are willing to drop your current vBGarage or equivilant plugin for vHoist, then you are a perfect candidate.

If however, you wish to import your current vBGarage, then we can also accomodate you. We are currently working on an Import feature which will be availble shortly after our inital release of this plugin

Please visit http://forums.generationdub.com/ for a demo of what vHoist can provide your site, and if you are interested in either of the above options contact me here or via email, admin@vHoist.com.

A FAQ Has been provided at http://www.vhoist.com.

vHoist Has:
- Multiple Garages for each user
- No added SQL Query's
- Users Cars listed under their post info (if wanted)
- Full integration into your forum
- Users can share their garages over multiple websites without the need to modify their profiles for each site.
- Anyone that "parks" their car on your website, will provide a backlink to your site for every other site they are on.

The list goes on, but I don't want to "jack" this thread since I will be making my own soon.

I figured this would be ok since vBGarage is no longer supported anyway.

Thanks for your time!

Just so everyone knows, I upgraded to vB 3.8.0 RC1 over the weekend and re-installed vBgarage 3.5 successfully in less than 5 minutes without any problems. Even though it is unsupported it still works fine, check it out on my website:

Hello Joey,

I am planning to install vbgarage to my forum and I was wandering where you find the code that you are using for mods that users have done to their cars.

It is your code?? Is it published somewhere ??

Thanks,

No, that mod it isn't mine - FordF150 uses phpBB 2:

i'm trying to troubleshoot an existing vbgarage where no one can create or edit their cars in the garage. is there a control panel for vbgarage somewhere or do you have to do everyting from phpmyadmin?

yes you can add extra questions in, I have added engine type to a test forum after editing the xml and the php file. but it only shows the new field on a fresh install or after uninstalling then reinstalling again, or i can install the xml file with the old database still installed and then manually edit in the "engine" field through mysqladmin and it will work.
What it wont do, is add the field in via the xml when upgrading an existing installation.

I assume this is because its looking for the table exists statement and then as it already exists leaves it alone without inserting the extra field.
I have no idea how to re-write the sql statement to check if the extra fields exist and then if not to create them


$db->query("
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS " . TABLE_PREFIX . "vbgarage_users (
`userid` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
`year` varchar(20) NOT NULL default '',
`make` varchar(30) NOT NULL default '',
`model` varchar(40) NOT NULL default '',
`engine` varchar(50) NOT NULL default '',
`text` mediumtext NOT NULL,
`lastactivity` int(60) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
PRIMARY KEY (`userid`)
) TYPE=MyISAM"
);


I hope this makes sense!

The screenshots below are of the standard tweaked install and not the install with the extra fields

Isn't there any solution to link pictures instead of upload them?:confused:

When I click on the images I get this error:

You don't have permission to access /forums/vbgarage.php on this server.

Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.


vgarage.php is CHMOD at 644 but I tried 755 and still no luck.

Where is the information and images stored for vbgarage? I want to back it up because I am testing something and want to save everything incase it gets messed up.

Hello, i just installed it on 3.6.8-2 and it worket great. Now for a little question. Is this possibe to do in a members profile.

When you enter a members profile, and the member got a garage. Is it possible to then display a link to his garage. And for a member without a garage there will be no link.

And i whould like it to be displayed above the "signature" in the profile.

/Addonic

This can be accomplished by placing this code in the postbit. You would also need to upload an image for the garage. You'll need to create a profile field named Garage or whatever you want it to be. The user would need to determine their garage ID by viewing the properties of the link to their specific garage and enter that number in the profile field on the User Profile.

<!--Start My Garage-->
<if condition="$post['fieldxx']">
<a href="http://www.yourwebsite.com/vbgarage.php?do=view&id=$post[fieldxx]"><img src="../images/misc/garage.png"border="0"alt="View My Garage"></a></if>

It would really nice if someone could tell me where and how to change the RAND() value because my host is killing off the process half the time I refresh my forum index because it is using too much CPU time to process the queries to get random pictures out of 138 garages. Nobody has an idea? I like the mod, but I can't keep it on my site with this happen so frequently. I'm sure it's just a simple modification of the RAND() code to fix it. This value is not found in any of the vbgarage templates or my vbgarage.php file. Is there a way to go into phpmyadmin and correct this where it doesn't call for random pictures? Or run Execute an SQL Query in AdminCP to correct this issue? The ORDER BY RAND() is causing me a lot of problems. I need it to be changed to use less processing time. It takes 5 - 6 second to run this query and half the time my host is killing off the process.
