Default vba CMPS GARS block

This is just a quick vba Module I threw together to try and please the 'Damnit - come up with vba support' people.

This will create 3 different layouts depending on the modules...

That would require a customized script. There are a number of examples on vBorg for how to create a non vB page while using the vB authentication if that's the route you want to take.

I got this working and it does do most things I want.
I've only got one problem: Attachments which are inserted into the text are only shown as a link.
Can anyone tell me how I can get it to show the image itself?

For starters I found that gars.php is lacking the code to retreive the attachment. I have no clue how to add this, unfortunately.

A version that shows the synopsis instead of the message body would also be welcome. Maybe selectable in the settings?

In that case I can display a short message on the frontpage with a link to the full message.

Just upgraded to vBAdvanced 3.2.0 and the module stopped functioning.

Am using a standard vB 3.7.3 installation and upgraded from an UN-MODIFIED vBA 3.1.0 which had the GARS block working beautifully.

Picked it all apart and tried various config changes but no mustard
Simply can't get the little begga to work.

Any suggestions?

Not sure, does vBa have a setting where you can enter variables from this add-on to globalize?

Default Facing Issues in IE display of this module

Hi

I dont know what is causing this in Internet Explorer 8.

My settings are in gars.php:

Code:
        //SETTINGS

    $forumids = "324,323,322,321,319,12,19,20,27,55,6,75,83,297,295,292,290,14,22,23,25,39,54,73,74,217,20,293,297,296,318,50,302,309,303,304,305,306,307,308,314,317,318,316,320,289,214,210,237,27";           //      Comma seperated list of forumids
    $limit = 5;                 //      How many items to show
    $title = "News Articles";             //        Module Title
    $featured = 0;              //      1= Only featured items
    $url_to_default_image = "types/3/default.jpg"; //Relative URL to default image from geek/gars/images/ folder
    $vertical = 0;              //      1= Vertical (only for template 1 or 3)
    $preview = 0;               //      1= Show preview
    $ratings = 0;               //      1= show ratings
    $template = 1;              //      1= simple with pic, 2=big with pic, 3=Listing no pic
    $order = 1;                 //      0= rand, 1=desc, 2=asc
    $maxchars = 200;            //  Maximum amount of chards to snip
    $customfields = false;         // Set to true to grab the custom fields.
    $parsebb = true;            //set to true to parse preview

    // END SETTINGS

adv_portal_gars_bit1
template has the following code.

Code:
<if condition="$vertical"><tr></if>
<td class="alt2" align="center" valign="top">
        <img alt="$result[title]" src="$result[image]" style="border: 2px #000000;padding:2px;" /><br />
        <a href="$bburl/showthread.php?t=$result[threadid]" title="$result[title]">
    <strong>$result[title]</strong></a><div class="smallfont">$result[byline]</div>
</td>
<if condition="$vertical"></tr></if>

Five thumbnails, but Latest News "in" one thumbnail. Looks like you need to make use of colspan="5" in the TD tag for the Latest News to allow it to go across the five thumbnails.

Sorry I don't use vBa CMPS but maybe someone who has done what you seek will come by and offer input.

I want to have the left an the right column with the pictures in it. It's the same like the vba cmps gars block, but i would need it for gars itself.

No chance?
