vB Timeslip Database - for Automotive websites

[deathemperor]

Yes, finally I can release it here the converted version off Timeslips database for vbulletin 3.5.x. I made it as a product, try to change the file edits into plugin as best as I could but you still need to edit 2 files (optional). I can't think of an easy way to remove that but if anyone can, please pop in.

I've made the timeslips.php page XHTML valid. Of course the look has not been changed. Also made it fully phrased.

The permission is granted here (http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showpost.php?p=793917&postcount=666)

Please let me copy what EvilLS1 (http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/member.php?u=11714) posted in the 3.0 hack (http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=60945&highlight=timeslips)




This is the newest version of EvilLS1's Timeslip Database hack. If you don't have an automobile related website ya might as well stop reading here because this will probably be of no use to you.. But if you do, read on!

What does it do? This hack does a few things. First, it will add a separate "Vehicle Profile" page to your forum where your users can enter their type of vehicle, engine, tranny, tires, horsepower, best 60' time, 1/8 mile time, 1/4 mile time, upload thier timeslip and more. Once the data is entered the timeslips.php page will display the info sorted by the best times, highest trap speeds, highest horsepower #s, proof of ET, or ET brackets (user selectable).

You can also ban users from editing their Vehicle Profile. This comes in handy if you have some users who insist on entering false data into the Timeslip Database just to be funny. To use this feature, just click on the user's vehicle profile, then click "user options" and set "Can edit vehicle profile" to no. The user will still be able to edit his regular profile, but not his vehicle profile.


Features include:
*The ability to sort by:
-1/4 Mile ET
-1/4 Mile MPH
-1/8 Mile ET
-1/8 Mile MPH
-60' Time
-Horsepower
-Cars with proof of ET (actual timeslip)
-N/A cars only
-Username
-ET brackets
*Show the average ET, MPH, and HP for your site.
*Vehicle Profile (separate from user profile)
*Ability to ban users from editing their vehicle profile
*Users can upload their timeslip in the vehicle profile. (New!)
*Timeslip uploads can be disabled in the admincp. (New!)
*Admin can delete user's uploaded timeslip. (New!)
*Maximum width, height and filesize for timeslip uploads can be set in the admincp. (New!)
*Admin can set an ET for which a timeslip is required if user's ET is quicker. (New!)
*Installer

Demo:

http://www.ls6.com.au/forum/timeslips.php?



Installation overview:
Files to edit: (2)- member.php (1), functions_user.php (2), image.php(2)
Files to upload: (2)- timeslips.php, slipicon.gif
Templates to edit: (2)- USERCP_SHELL, navbar
Templates to add: 0
Phrases to add: 0

Why do I still have to edit files ?
The reasons for those editions are because you don't want users to see the timeslips profile fields in the memberlist/member profile/edit profile

and just that. So that means if you exclude those the hack will still work whatever



Installation instructions:

BACK UP EVERYTHING BEFORE INSTALLING ANY HACK

Firstly please read the file Instructions.txt file on how to install this hack.

the steps are: Import the product-timeslips.xml file. Do file and template editions. Upload files to correct folder. Then enjoy it !


I have tried all that I can by installing this hack on a fresh board and solved *almost* all the problem. But if you find any errors, please post it here (just do not duplicate things :P ).


Upgrading

I haven't had a chance to do the upgrade because I convert this for a fresh vb3.5 board. I've set up things that I think it's ready for the upgrade. I'm willing to test the upgrade on your board if anyone can give.

For the upgrade to work, you must use the latest version of timeslips which can be taken from here: http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=60945



Support

I'll try my best to give supports. But please understand due to my heavy busy I may miss your post. Please understand.


Screenshots?

The shots from its 3.0 version are fine.
here's the link: http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=60945&highlight=timeslips


Changes Logs

03/18/2006: version 1.1 Fully phrased the hack.
03/19/2006: fix the problem showing your current timeslip image when editing your timeslip. To upgrade simply re-import product-timeslips.xml.

03/19/2006: fixed a few bugs in this post: http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showpost.php?p=928929&postcount=31 . Again to upgrade just reimport the product file.

03/20/2006: Hack version change to 1.1.3: Changed the field of field 52,53,55 to decimal (6,3). Added one more file editions into the instructions file to fix showing proper image. So bad to add another file edit but this is becaus there is no hook in image.php. this is how to do it:



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


Again to upgrade you need to import the product file again to overwrite. then do the above edit.

03/23/2006: Update: fix a JS error when submitting the new timeslip. (Thanks Sidewindr). Also the new product will attempt to remove your old vb3.0 options then add the new ones, this is for upgrading from timeslips for vb3.0 to vb3.5 . I didn't test that tho.

12/05/2006: Version 1.2 for vb3.6 released.

12/09/2006: minor fix for missing adding field50.

12/12/2006: fix the error: Fatal error: Call to undefined function build_hiddenprofilefield_cache() in C:\Program Files\xampp\htdocs\folder\admincp\plugin.php(1468) : eval()'d code on line 6

Please click install if you use this hack for updates. http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/vborg_miscactions.php?do=installhack&threadid=110717

Excellent, your new .xml file worked flawlessly! One last issue, you forgot to include slipicon.gif with the zip file. I grabbed it from garycutri's ls6.com link but you might want to throw it in the original zip ;) Great work and thanks!!!

[deathemperor]

That means you are upgrading from the old version. As mentioned above I never had a chance to try the upgrade. If anyone can give me a test site (forum 3.5 with timeslips 3.0), that would be great for making the installer work on upgrade.

@MillerLight: it is not fully phrased I think. that can be changed, soon :).

[deathemperor]

It is now fully phrased. I didn't make the vehicle tech words to be phrase because I think in whatever language they are still so.

[MillerLight]

Death,

Thanks for the quick turn around. This hack now that it is fully phrased can be used for a large variety of community themes :banana:

Clicked Install!

[MillerLight]

Death,

What did you mean to express by the below statement? The actual part of your statement that I didn't get your meaning to is highlighted below.


It is now fully phrased. I didn't make the vehicle tech words to be phrase because I think in whatever language they are still so.

[deathemperor]

I meant the values like:
1/4 Mile MPH, 10 Sec Club, etc.

[MillerLight]

Death,

Just so I am clear, those values you listed above, are they Changeable or Non Changeable by altering the phrases?

Thanx ;)

[deathemperor]

they are changeable by editing the templates for now.

[tommyxv]

Question #1: Do you have to have attachments enable for members in order for the upload timeslip feature to work?

Because I am getting a blank page when trying to view a time slip image.

Question #2: Can you or anyone make hooks/plugins for these code modifications?

Question #3: Is there a way to get a confirmation that the info has been saved instead of defaulting back to the edit page? It fooled me the first time as I re-entered the info again thinking I missed something.

Thanks in advance.

[deathemperor]

#1: No
#2: For what purpose ?
#3: Are you using firefox ? firefox save input fields, try it on IE which does not.

[o85au]

Hi death, absolutely spectacular work here, however I'm having a small issues, seems whenever my members input an ET above 10 it reverts it to 9.999. Just wondering how I get around this?

Regardz :)

[deathemperor]

Sorry for my bad knowledge on vehicle but is it "1/8 Mile ET & MPH" or "1/4 Mile ET & MPH"

[bouncer18]

I have the modd'ed 3.5 version installed.. ill click install that way i can help with questions..

[o85au]

Yeah, I seemed to have fixed it by changing the data type to decimal (6,3)

Regardz :)

[garycutri]

Nice site!

Thanks :)

[Sidewindr]

There's a few bugs ..

1. The enforcement for uploading of image if under the set time does not appear to work.
2. The maximum timeslip image size is not changeable in the admincp
3. The users hopepage on the Details page shows up as the user looking at the details not the user.
4. The timeslip pic that comes up is the users avatar in my case.
5. The DECIMAL values for fields 52,53 and 55 should be DECIMAL(6,3) NOT DECIMAL(4,3) in the XML Installer File.
6. Hooks would be much better than file edits :)

The fix for #3 is to change the following in getvehicleinfo template..

Brilliant!!! Worked first time on 3.5.4 no problems at all :banana:

Just put in a test entry and seems to be working all good!

http://www.ozls1.com.au/forum/timeslips.php?

Great install instructions...especially for a VB NOOB!!!

Thx again!!

[SilentNoise]

I'm using the patched version of vB 3.5.3 and it works like a charm
(The link is in my sig if anyone cares)

It's a really simple install, which is a nice bonus too.

Thanks man!

[garycutri]

3. The users hopepage on the Details page shows up as the user looking at the details not the user.



This is only the case when viewing the details using the admin account. I saw that a while back but didn't worry about it.

[MoveOver.cc]

Mine works just fine so thanks and great hack.

If I can be cheeky and suggest some additions -

Change the HP to BHP as opposed to Power at wheels. (or add another section).

Have another choice - Front Wheel Drive, 4 Wheel Drive, Rear Wheel Drive

Have another choice for car models, with Admin being allowed to add new Car Models in the Admin CP.

:banana:

From admincp go to "User Profile Fields" and select "User Profile Field Manager" and you can make changes to the fields (e.g. Add extra options to the Induction drop down box etc.). I also removed altitude and added a Tuner/Workshop field.

#4: it can't be, you can try looking at the demo site in the above post.

#5: that was because of my lack of vehicle knowlegde. I will change that if more ppl want it.

#6: There are no other possible ways to remove those file editions AFAIK. If you can do it just point me out. I'll be greatful.

#7: I'll be more greatful if you keep the credit of timeslips on your site. Please do respect the volunteers. Thank you.


@Thanks Gary for helping me support this hack while I'm away :up:

[tommyxv]

#1: No
#2: For what purpose ?
#3: Are you using firefox ? firefox save input fields, try it on IE which does not.

#1, For reason I get a blank screen. hrrrmmm

#2 For the purpose of not having to re-edit files everytime I upgrade vBulletin.

#3 I am using IE, it does save the info, It just doesn't let you know it did. Is there anyway to make it show a "all info saved page" then redirect to the timeslip page?

[SilentNoise]

I'm found one hiccup.

When I'm trying to get to the timeslip database from CMPS, which is outside of the forum directory, it brings up

Warning: main(./global.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/xxxxxxx/public_html/timeslips.php on line 35

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required './global.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/xxxxxxxx/public_html/timeslips.php on line 35


To fix this, change the line that you put into your navbar to:

#1. I can't hardly tell what's the problem then because as for the demo site it is working without any problem for a month before it is released here.

#2. You know I hate the truth that hack need file editions. But this hack does requires 2 and those are not possible to remove AFAIK. Anyway try reading my first post for the reason why. Those editions are still optional = without it the hack still works.

#3. To see the saved message notification, make sure to enable "redirect message" on your vbulletin options.

[Sidewindr]

This is only the case when viewing the details using the admin account. I saw that a while back but didn't worry about it.

Nope .. all users got it .. it's a problem in the template .. see my fix above.

[dsotmoon]

so just to be sure, since its phrased I can change this over to use it on a 4x4 offroading site and as an example change " 60' " to "lift amount" or "1/8 Mile ET & MPH" to "tire size" etc etc ?

[Sidewindr]

Hi folk.

#1: I don't quite understand what you mean on this. more explanations would be better.

The option in admin CP to enforce a timeslip pic/scan if the timeslip is under say 13.00 seconds or what ever you choose... I think you're missing some of the necessary edits/checks from profile.php I am looking at them now ... but the enforcement options to stop Timeslips under the value set in the admin cp being submitted without a pic.

etc etc etc

Actually the issue appears to be in the modifytimeslip template, the java validation script appears not to run/execute properly. It should also check that if a link is given it is to a jpg or gif file not to a htm etc.


#2: fixed

#3: fixed

#4: it can't be, you can try looking at the demo site in the above post.

Trust me you need to change the DECIMAL values to 6,3 for those fields as there are not many people running under 9.999 seconds on the quarter mile. I'm trying to impart some vehicle knowledge here :)


#6: There are no other possible ways to remove those file editions AFAIK. If you can do it just point me out. I'll be greatful.

I am unsure as well but there HAS to be a way ... some far more complex hacks manage to do it but it requires reworking of the code.

Well it would hardly be accurate would it seeing that the hack is not complete and needs extra work to get it working :p Lets get it all working first.

Thanks for those, I did miss the edit on image.php. but as Gary's site I did not. Anyway, added.

Another user has requested to change the decimal range, so I changed it too.

[Sidewindr]

I am looking at the java code in the modifytimeslip template.

It appears that the if statment cannot evaluate the values for theform.field55.value etc.

I tested the IF with 1==1 and 2<=3 and it behaves as expected ..

Changing the if statement to just



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

does not work.

[Sidewindr]

Almost fixed it .. will post up when I have :D

[Sidewindr]

Ok the problem in the javascript is that where the variable is "theform.field55.value" it should be "theform.ctb_field55.value" and the smae for all other fieldNN.value's ...

I am wrestling with the logic there at the moment as if you have upload slip pic allowed it will not let woy use a url instead.

[tommyxv]

First I just want to say this hack is awesome and thanks for porting it. I am still testing it on my test board.

I found an issue with removing a timeslip image. It removes the timeslip icon but the image is still there if you follow the original link.

My concern is that the database will hold this data and keep growing.

Can someone try this too. Upload an image, view the image via the timeslip page, save the url, then remove the image and then follow the original URL.

Is it still there?

[fkatzenb]

I have some problems.... I imported the product, I get the following when visiting the php file and I also found that none of the fields have been imported...



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

[fkatzenb]

I figured it all out.

See what happened is that I had a botched old install/attempt at this. I failed the XML import, found the SQL artifacts/old stuff, removed them, attempted to reinstall, however it doesnt install properly.... basically ignoring most of the stuff (like fields). I attempted to uninstall, but didnt work. So I went in, re-removed the SQL artifacts it had just created, then when it in and removed uninstall code, uninstalled the product, attempted again, and WHAM!

AWESOME!

I am going public with it here shortly. I am so pumped!

What do you guys mean buy multi-car support? You can modify any of the fields that you want, change the type of field it is, and add more as well.

Once all these changes have been made it's pretty well bug free.. although I am not a big fan of client side verification of forms as it is easy to circumvent. :)

Modify the xml package (or I can do it for you) and reupload then I'll upgrade it retaining the credit .. prolly should also have some additional credit ;)

[tommyxv]

Some FYI: If you deleted one of the profile fields for whatever reason, you won't be able to uninstall this product. It will give you a database error because the field is no longer there. You have to remove it from the uninstall code to have it uninstall correctly.

I want Fields 50 and 51 to be drop downs, so I have changed the XML.

Seems to work well.

OK, since things seem to be a little everywhere....

- Download the new attached ZIP file from this thread
- Make the changes mentioned in the TXT file from the attached ZIP file
- Alter the code in image.php using the changes listed in the header of this thread
- Make the change in this post to fix the menu link: http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showpost.php?p=929280&postcount=39
- Edit the XML file that comes in the ZIP file as well. Make these changes: http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showpost.php?p=930448&postcount=63, then upload it as a product from your Admin CP.

EDIT:
- Also while you're in the Admin CP, change the template "modifytimeslips" (it's in "Modify User Option Templates") - follow the instructions here: http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showpost.php?p=930437&postcount=61
(thanks for the heads up Sidewindr)


I'm using the patched version of vB3.5.3 and everything is working great after doing these things.

[Sidewindr]

Did you update the javascript in the modifytimeslip template so that the timeslip image/link enforcement works ?? :)

http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showpost.php?p=930437&postcount=61

[SilentNoise]

OH, ya I got that done too. Must've missed it when going back and forth looking for links, but I remember it taking a couple of minutes to find the "modifytimeslips" template.

I've added it to the list above, so hopefully everyone should be good to go.

[Jenkins]

this is a weird problem. I can't tell where it comes from. Is any body else having this problem ?

It's almost like that stuff should be hidden. when you highlight the text, it highlights the coorosponding field below

[Sidewindr]

Some more .. I have refined the checking in the modifytimeslip template..

Here's the new code for the javascript at the top ..



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



This will ensure that if there are no timeslip uploads are allowed then the url for the slip image is something that resembles a url to an image.

If timeslip uploads are allowed it will accept wither an uploaded image or a valid url to an image. :D

If anyone wants the fixed xml installer PM me :D or I can attach it here if ok with deathemperor or I can send it to him :D

[tommyxv]

Can you PM me the XML (or link to) with all these updates?

Thanks

Sorry, the flu sucks and is sapping my thoughts. When you are logged into VB and view details for each slip entry, the hopepage is your hopepage in every case.


Frank

[tommyxv]

Some FYI: If you deleted one of the profile fields for whatever reason, you won't be able to uninstall this product. It will give you a database error because the field is no longer there. You have to remove it from the uninstall code to have it uninstall correctly.

I want Fields 50 and 51 to be drop downs, so I have changed the XML.

Seems to work well.

For the people having un-install issues, you may need to follow this.

Frank

Do you have the latest version becuase that was fixed.

EDIT: Also for anyone installing this, it's highly unlikey but make sure you don't already have profile field numbers 50 and up or you will have problems. If you don't want certain fields, it's best to remove them from the XML before you install it. This way you can remove it later down the line withour problems. EX: I decided not to use "Density Altitude" so i removed all traces of that field from the install and uninstall code. Also of you want certain field to be drop downs, you need to change "input" to "select" for that field in the XML.

[tbroush]

For the people having un-install issues, you may need to follow this.

I try running the query for the uninstall code and I get errors also. I'm running mysql 4.0.12 or something like that.

An error occurred while attempting to execute your query. The following information was returned.
error number: 1064
error desc: You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '$db->query_write("DROP TABLE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "customfile")'

[tommyxv]

Did you delete any of the fields that were created (50 to 65)? If so that is the only un-install error that I have come across. I have installed and uninstalled this over 20 times as I am customizing it, with out problem. If it's beyond that, you might need to wait for Death to chime in.

This a fresh install for this site, never had this feature before, I checked the database and I only have 6 profile fields, none are within the numbers on this installation so I'm guessing is not installing correctly for some reaso I guess.

[92GreenGT]

So is the error I posted anything to worry about or should I just go on with the install? I have had Timeslip mod on my site before. Thanks

[92GreenGT]

Went ahead and installed it, when I click "Timeslips" on my navbar it takes me to a blank white page and when I click "Edit Vehicle Profile" in my User CP it takes you to a blank page. Is this related to the product error I got earlier? Any help is appreciated. Thanks

I had Timeslip database already installed ya know, I deleted all the templates and files that I knew of but it was still showing up in my Vbulletin options section.

You still have the stuff in the SQL database. You have to manually clean these out and then attempt this again. Then there will be other steps you have to do. If you want me to do it, hit me up in a PM.

It used to be supercharged now is being fitted with a turbo. I don't have any problems helping you just let me know, is kind of hard to tell you exactly what to do in the database, you used have find everything that has to do with the timeslips database and delete it.

Cool we order a SL T76 from turbonetics and it has being almost a month and still no turbo, we are probably going to cancel the order and go with a Precision or Innovative one, not sure yet.

Thanks anyway.

What are you trying to do with this modification?

[tealv6]

I've looked through the whole 11 pages.. is there a way to make "ride" a drop down menu with options I set?

Also, what is the easiest way to delete a timeslip for a user other than the control panel? I would recommend a delete option from the timeslip.php page that only the Admins can use, normal users/mods will not see it.

Thanks
Steve

sidewinder this was for people who where trying to add the xml file and getting that error. However my issue now is since this is for a fresh install I tried copying over my old data into the new database but all my timeslip pictures are messed up. I tried editing the file timeslips.php to use my old table but that didn't work either. Anyone have any suggestions.

[BlueBulletRL]

Also question when viewing the details it has the HOmepage. How can I take that out it doesn't read correclty and I find it unnescarry

Just rename your old table timeslippic to customfile (I think).

[BlueBulletRL]

Alright awesome that worked. So yes now my problem is when viewing details it shows homepage I want that gone

[Sidewindr]

If the user does not have a homepage it will not be displayed.

As for where to remove this from the timeslip detail display I am not sure .. don't have time to look for it right now :D

[BlueBulletRL]

ha dude I've been searching and can not find it anywhere. But like I was saying if I am viewing the details of a time slip for say user on sale at the bottom it says homepage and then will say view BlueBulletRLs Homepage

[BlueBulletRL]

Alright I found it its in the getvehicleinfo template. I just went ahead and deleted and and BAM gone :) But however anyone that does wanna use this it does not show the users homepage but yet your own homepage. I guess this is something that could be looked into but since I found it unnessacary I deleted it. Thanks for the help!

[Johhhn]

I still get the same error, I can't upload the product file :(
Any ideas?

Ahh this was a bug I fixed .. check the posts in this thread .. maybe you don't have the latest xml file or it may have not made it into the one on here. Mine certainly works ;)

[Sidewindr]

I have also discovered another bug when updating timeslip info with respect to enforcing the timeslip pic or URL... will post when I have fixed it.

[Sidewindr]

Ok bug/s fixed. I have attached the xml to this post.

There was a typo in the regexp matching for url checking of the timeslip url and the logic needed a finishing touch to correct a condition where if you uploaded a timeslip pic and then edited your profile you could delete the pic (default action, fixed now) and still have a time under the minimum time required for a timeslip pic or URL.

[92GreenGT]

Getting the same error still, same as the one Johhhn got when im trying to install the product. I tried the "fix" posted on page 11 and it didnt help. Really wish I could figure this out, :(

[BlueBulletRL]

Hey sidewinder yea I'm getting the same error when I tried to upload your new xml file into product manager. I'm gonna see what I can possibly find out. Just curious but is this because its not made for an upgrade but yet a fresh version? If so that would be why we are getting this error correct?

No idea .. it works fine for me when I add the product with overwrite. All I can suggest is to check out the SQL statements in the xml file and also look at your tables, maybe you have some remnents of a previous install ...

Do you have existing data or are you starting from scratch?

If it's a clean install it appears you have a "allowtimeslipupload" field in your setting table. Try removing the "allowtimeslipupload" field from the settings table and then installing the product.

Did you follow all of the instructions in the zip file??? The xml I put up is just a modified product file there are more things that need to be done than just installing the xml product. I am sorry but I have no idea what the error you are getting means exactly apart from you're making call to a nonexistient function .. :confused:

[Sidewindr]

Have you read any of this thread at all??? :cross-eyed:

[Johhhn]

Hi Sidewindr,

I appreciate you porting this hack to vb3.5.

I was running this hack under vb3 and followed the upgrade instructions on two installations of vb3.5 and I get the error that many others have gotten: Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /public_html/forums/admincp/plugin.php(1239) : eval()'d code on line 5

I really want to get this working, but have no idea where to go from here. Since many others have the same problem, I assume it's not isolated.

Thanks,

John

John,

I didn't port it I just fixed some bugs in it :)

As for your error I really have no idea what's causing it. :(

[Johhhn]

:(

Ok, how about this-

Any idea how hard/easy it can be to setup a new install of this and then reimport the old data?

[92GreenGT]

Someone needs to figure out what is causing the problems from the old install. That has to be the problem, its the remaining info that was on there with the 3.0.x version. How do you delete remains out of your SQL database?

[dragtech]

So does this installing fine (no problems) on a new 3.5.4 clean setup?

Seconded. Also something for circuit racing, different tracks etc.

You can just change the wording if you want it to count for circuit racing instead of drag racing. Change the name to lap times, and add a field for length of the track, and whether it's oval, D-shaped, or road coarse. Every field in this hack is customizable.

thanks in advance!

join the club, bro.. readup and you'll see you won't be the only one ignored!

[black04gt]

ahh i see now that you had the same problem.... weird... i have been searching the forums and no where that I can see of does it talk about a problem with importing a .xl file maybe the file is bad??? Do you have any other hacks on your board??? I have vbgallery, vbms, and flash chat... that should affect it.. Im going to try to upload another hack and see if it works if it works fine then something is wrong with the .xml file...


Update!!!... i just tried to upload and install the ecdownload buddy product.xml file.. it installed perfectly no problems so this definitly has something to do with the timeslip.xml file I thought it might have been my forums corupted or messed up but its working fine just something in the timeslip code that the forums hates????

[black04gt]

heck, at this point, i'll pay someone to help fix it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :tired:


il pay soemone to fix mine too... my memebers want the timeslip mod they are going to riot soon!

I PM'd EvilLS1 to see if he could tell me the changes his hack made in the database so we can go in and remove all the old changes and then install the 3.5.x version again. He replied with a super quick and helpful reply. Can someone make a uninstall script to help everyone who is having problems out? He said it would be fairly easy for someone with some coding skills to make one. Anyways, here are the database changes that the 3.0.x version changed.

Tables created:
customtimeslippic

Additions to table "settinggroup":
timeslips

Additions to table "setting":
allowtimeslipupload
tdmaxwidth
tdmaxheight
tdmaxsize

Additions to table "phrase":

I removed all the modifications listed above from the old timeslip DB manually using mysql admin. Just go through the tables and find the fields and tables that were added and drop them.

I'd love to help out with a script but I will not take that risk incase I make a boo boo and causes grief for others ;) I am by no means a master coder hehe just a hack :banana:

sniff sniff :(

damn

Wish there was a better way,, i can't believe no coder can figure out WHY it's giving that error message.. it works for some peeps but not others? makes no sense to me :(

[92GreenGT]

It only works for the people who deleted their old stuff from the database or hadnt installed the old version.

It doesnt take but a minute to re-enter your info in the timeslip database.

[Zachariah]

What is going on with this hack ?
- I started to work on the 3.5 ver and shot PM's to hotwheels and got lost in a few hacks.

This hack is awesome. However, myself and some other members have multiple 11 and 12 second cars.

The question is. Is there a way for me to manually enter more than one entry for a given user into the database?

With manual access to the database I know this is very doable.

Thanks guys

[Zachariah]

Hello I am here - I have posted what has been talked about to speed up why I am here.


Hi,

The havk that deathemperor did is really only a port to v3.5. The whole things needs a revisit and rewrite with added features etc. If you are still keen to do a hack along these lines it might be a good thing to have a feature request thread and then decide what to do :)

cheers,
Jason.

Did he not want to play with the hack anymore ? What's the status ? I talked to Elvis1 about the hack and I have the ok to redo it, but since deathemperor had a ver. out I did not want to step on toes.

I doubt it would be a problem, deathemperor has not really beeen around to answer questions and I had to fix quite a few bugs and logic errors in the code he released. I'm by no means a gun programmer but I am an Engineer so I tend to think quite logically ;)

As I said no one would be upset if a new hack were discussed maybe do it in this thread http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=97408 :D

That is if you feel like it, but IMHO there is a need for such a mod that provides a bit more than the current mod. Like Multiple vehicle entries, maybe a couple of pictures etc etc.


And

http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=97408


Can anyone get me up to date on this project and if deathemperor is MIA or not ?

[budroni]

OK.. It seems the xml file works... I get no errors, but it never creates the table and fields in the DB?!?!

[TSR]

still get errors on XML import on a vb site upgraded from 3.0.X to 3.5.4

15 pages of people looking for answers.. bummer :(

[bouncer18]

Zach... to sum it all up

There needs to be an uninstall script made that clears out the OLD DB and removes all traces of timslip from the DB

A new and working XML needs to be created along with the code modifications to mkae it a direct plugin


otherwise.. there will be 15 more pages of HELP HELP HELP's posted...

basiaclly, this needs to be recoded by someone who is willin to put time into it

[noppid]

I am close to needing this, but have not completely commited to racing as of yet. I got permission through a general post by the original author to recode this, however, I only ported the one page that displayed exiting data to 3.5.x, timeslips.php. Many of you out there have a copy of this. However, it does not give any functionality to the database.

I don't want to step on anyones toes here, I dunno where this rendition of the code is going or where it is for now. The original code is a bear and I dunno if I wanna take that on. I dunno what to do yet. The more I type, the more I realize I'm gonna need this though.

[Zachariah]

[ddolliver]

We need the ability to:


Have more that one vehicle per registered user...or someone in a special user group.
Be able to easily change the "canned" field headers.
Be able to easly change the vehicle type dropdown choices.
Have the timeslip enforcement really work.


I am sure that others have additional inputs....thanks for listening to my whining.:confused:

Id be willing to chip in some $$ to have this hack coded as a plugin by someone who would be able to support it. It would also need to be able to accept more than 1 entry per user.

Ok.
- Lets get this going on new installs.
- Allow upgrades from older live sites.
- Compile a list and fix bugs if any.
- Compile a list of requests.

Should there be a new thread for Pre-Dev / Beta ect for this mod ?

I am working on getting something moving and could use a little legwork and brain power :) If there are any coders out there that want to team up to make a sweet mod, I am cool with that also.

Just tossing around some thoughts and ideas ..

Yes, lets start a new thread for this. I love all the default features of this script, but would love to have support for muliple entries from the same user. Maybe this option should be voted on to see how many people see a need for multiple entries per user?

If the script is to have multiple entries, I think they should be stored in a separate table as this would allow an unlimited amount of entries per member.

[ddolliver]

Please link to the new thread for all following this saga to see.

Thanks,

agree'd a new thread would be alot better...

I left it to be ported to 3.5 by someone else because I'm not online that much anymore. I haven't even upgraded my own site yet due to being so busy with work and other things. So even if I did port this one over myself I wouldn't have enough free time to offer support for it.. and I won't release anything that I can't support.

I'm sure Zachariah will do a great job of supporting his version so just hang tight and watch for his release.

[Tungsten]

I'll have something soon ;D.
I would be willing to beta whatever you do, and would likewise be willing to pay a nominal fee for your efforts. Our community has been lacking a timeslip database for months now and the members have all but given up on the idea that we'll ever have one again.

[TTG]

How can I remove a timeslip from the database ?

[Tru2Chevy]

How can I remove a timeslip from the database ?

You can just look up the member's profile in the AdminCP, and edit all of their vehicle profile information from there. You can also set it so that a particular user doesn't have access to their vehicle profile any longer.

Zacharia, Any Update?

With VB3.6 soon to go Gold I have had a few slowdowns.
:(

I took another look @ the hack and have plans to create tables for the data vs. use profile fields, multi records, more as I redo the hack. Once I get a good chunk of the core of the program working I will set up a thread to do some beta testing of upgrade, new install, and feedback.

- VB 3.5, 3.6

[Sidewindr]

Put me down for the beta program ;)

[Tungsten]

Likewise please consider us for beta testing your code. And my offer to pay a fair fee for your efforts still stands. Our members would kill to have a good timeslip database again.

[NathanLedet]

I just installed this hack and so far it's great. However I do have one question. I would like for my users to be able to upload their timeslips. Where do the images upload to? If they upload to the MySQL Database, I need to know how to change this so that images are uploaded to a folder in my file storage system.

In vBulletin, in the Admin panel there is the Attachments link...i made all adjustments on that so that when people upload images in a regular thread, it uploads to a specified folder. Does the TimeSlips db automatically download to this folder? or am i going to need to modify some code. Thanks for help :)

edit: I tried to upload an image to do some testing. The image i tried to upload was too big. It directed me to the proper error message telling me that my image was too big..but the message was incorrect:

"The file that you have tried to attach is too big. The maximum size is $maxsize bytes."

What do i need to do to fix that?
