Garage Mod

RRasco · October 30, 2006, 04:27:18 PM

I was looking around to see if there was a mod that would add a garage to each user allowing them to add a vehicle and its modifications to it. i have one now for my phpBB board, but have not seen anything like it for SMF. This is an absolute must for my site prior to migrating. the one i am using also has a bunch of extras like insurance reviews, shops reviews, guestbooks, comments, timeslips.

warmachine · November 08, 2006, 09:00:39 PM

There is nothing like that available for SMF yet. However, there looks to be someone working on a garage mod for SMF: http://www.fusionscripts.com/products/ports/garage_smf/ [nofollow]

No ideas when it will be done though. This is something I would like to add to my sites as well, so your not the only one looking for a solution.

RRasco · November 21, 2006, 05:33:03 PM

haha, i already gave up looking and have just began planning my own mod for this. maybe they will beat me to it, if not i think i am still going to be writing one in the near future.

Adamzon · November 21, 2006, 05:36:35 PM

Im interested !!!!

JayBachatero · November 22, 2006, 05:15:40 PM

Umm actually this one is on my todo list also. I just don't know when I'll do it. Also that version is paid. If I end up doing it it would be free.

NEMINI · November 22, 2006, 07:56:09 PM

wish we could clone Jay so he could do multiple things at once ... seriously though, thanks for all you have done and will do in the future Jay, I use a bunch of your mods

RRasco · November 27, 2006, 09:33:43 AM

well, if i have to end up doing it myself, ill make it available to you guys.

Mortal159 · January 27, 2007, 10:50:36 PM

My company owns the development contract to the SMF port of that (TrapZero SO). Unfortunately, our internal developers that have committed to doing it in the past are no longer with us. To that end, I'm willing to discuss options for moving forward with it in a more open manner, if anyone has any ideas. That being said, I can't simply open it up as OSS/FOSS, since the original version isn't ours.

what license is it under?

An "if you allow the source code to this to fall into hands not authorized to see it, you die a long and horrible death" kind of license.

Mortal159 · January 31, 2007, 09:14:33 PM

so will this mod be made in the near future?

I'd need to work out some type of arrangement with some developers... I have none of my own available to do it.

dor · February 01, 2007, 02:31:16 PM

What actually needs to be done? Like does the code need to be modified to reference something else? Or does it need to be rewritten? Because if it's more of referencing things, I can help do that. But I won't be able to rewrite things, only because I don't know how too. But I'm in for this if you need some hands! Be good chance to learn PHP properly too!

drhamad · February 01, 2007, 02:42:14 PM

We'd need some serious developers... I haven't even bothered looking at it in a while, and my 2 dev's that were on it a while ago are gone now.

Basically everything has to be converted from the IPB template and db systems, to the SMF ones. It's a decent sized job.

dor · February 01, 2007, 07:46:50 PM

Why don't you convert the phpBB version of it? But anyway, given the code, I'd do it!

Either way...

Eva · February 04, 2007, 10:22:07 PM

This would be an excellent (and needed) mod!

RRasco · February 27, 2007, 03:59:02 PM

check out http://www.smfgarage.com me and my brother have teamed up with poyntesm who is the original author of phpBB garage. we have began development on this and will be hopefully be done in the near future. although we dont have a time frame yet the SMF version of my own site cannot exist until this module is finished.

fgoc · April 15, 2007, 08:09:51 PM

need a garage mod!!!!!!! nice to see at least one in dev - keep up the good work!!

Mortal159 · April 17, 2007, 12:49:47 AM

any updates on when this will be developed?

KGIII · April 17, 2007, 12:56:04 AM

See their link - they have a domain setup for it.

VWPowered · November 15, 2007, 06:51:44 PM

Jump1979man · March 24, 2010, 08:26:08 AM

Im wondering why this mod never really has been kept up to date with the new versions of smf......seems it is a popular mod.

Agreed. We currently use it but plan on upgrading soon hopefully and it will be disappointing to not be able to use this then.

kizer · March 25, 2010, 06:07:06 PM

Yep I own a Jeep website and I'm sure my members would enjoy throwing in all of their data.

drhamad · March 26, 2010, 03:47:30 AM

It is by no means a perfect solution, but I just started using profile fields with SMF2.

I got it working on 1.1.11 without any problems, looking for addons such as to feature a random vehicle on simple portal.

Sucking Futs - it only works in 1.1.1 >_<

Stigmartyr · March 12, 2011, 09:14:05 AM

How much $$$ to either get you started again RRasco or sell the mod to me so we can see this move forward.

carlosdelarco · September 28, 2011, 01:13:27 PM

hi!!!

I just downloaded and installed 2.2 from www.smfgarage.com Garage Mod. The installation was successful but when trying to use it I get this error when adding pictures:

The database value you're Trying to insert does not exist: attach_thumb_width

Any idea how to fix this? I tried to access the Garage SMF forum but the forum does not work.

Thanks!
