Help with hack after upgrade

[CB88]

My webmaster recently quit and kinda left me high and dry so I've been learning on the fly.

My forum had a hack installed: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/show...ht=traderrating

I recently upgraded to 3.5.3 and the Trader Rating Hack is no longer there.

The three templates are still there but it isn't working and I am at a loss as to how I should fix this.

I'm very new and would appreciate any help.

Thanks

Also, the Trader Ratings text is still above each username in the profile but when I click on it the following message appears:

Warning: main(./includes/functions_bbcodeparse.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /traderratings.php on line 46

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required './includes/functions_bbcodeparse.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/hsphere/local/home/rsoxhate/traderretreat.com/forum/traderratings.php on line 46

I'm afraid that "old" hacks no longer work on vBulletin 3.5.x.
Unless some one ports it to the new version of vB you can't use it and better remove this link from your templates.
It's not that easy to convert a hack to vB 3.5, there is no simple "How to convert this hack to 3.5".
Sorry.

I would first check if there is a vB3.5 version available before trying to upgrade things yourself.

I found this: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=102965&highlight=trader

Do you guys think it will work again if I install this?

From the description it looks very similar.
