I am beginning to develop a site dedicated to car audio for beginers, I am looking to have a community based site that will allow user's to post picture's in their own albums, write tutorials, reviews, keep a blog and have like a wiki section for different things. I would also like other members to be able to view a members gallery and have links the there photo galleries, tutorials and reviews they have written plus a link to their blog. Can VB do this without spending hours trudging through code. I know a little php and can do most things I want to but I don't have a lot of time to sit and figure out code. I am wondering if VB can do these things by installing already written hacks mods addons whatever.

Thanks in advance.

You can browse through the hacks at vbulletin.org and check out photopost.com for two examples of photo gallery solutions.

vBAdvanced Photo Gallery and vBAdvanced Portal are a good start. For Tutorials and Reviews you can either use vBAdvanced where you post a Thread/Topic and it shows up as an article, or you can actually use an Articles module.

There are Blog plug-ins for vB and I think Wiki shouldn't be too hard to add.

Members Gallery is already built in and you can add links under each person's popup menu to get you to that user's gallery, wiki, etc.

This all should require minimum or no PHP coding.

Ok thanks for the help. I am currently using IPB but may make a switch when my license expires.
