I've used the other version and it was sorting all settings even for usergroup. Was that sorted?

If thats the way you have it set, yes.

In AdminCP > vBulletin Options. Just like the instructions say

For some reason I had to import the product TWICE before it appeared. I had the original version on a test forum without having to import twice. So I tested it again and same thing have to import twice second time with overwrite in order for it to appear in the admin CP and yes I logged out and back in.
But all is working fine now thanks.

Hmm....thats odd. I tested it out quite a few times after making a couple of changes and worked perfectly fine for me. But glad you got it working

Is it possible to add an additional sort function.
All vB default things on top and sorted from a to z and then all products under it from a to z.

Can you add this?

I just experienced the same thing.

Installed it again, allowing overwrite, and it showed up for me.

Previously, it didn't.

Great mod idea, ever think of doing one for the side navigation too? or at least one that would let you edit the order of apperance?

first installed. nothing changed.

After some days this plungs starts to work, it listed in alphabetical. I was suprised
Now its my 2nd login after "worked" and now I miss some links like vb ad management.
I thinks this plugin have destroyed the options list, now I uninstalled.
But is doesnt help!! I dont why but I AM SURE thats the plugin caused this problem...

We will see more peaople who have this problem or I am stupid.

I can't reproduce your problem as I've tried every option available for sorting and I log in and out everyday. And I've tried installing and uninstalling and installing a few times. So I'm not sure HOW you came about this problem.

then where is my vb ad management system config links in the options?
I didnt install any plugins before. And I get i lost right after cpsettings worked... thats strange..

Do have a test admin account so I can look? You can PM me the login details if you wish

Its to dangerous for me, now I looking for the ad management config links. I will give only vb Admins an account. Sorry but this plugin is dead for me. And I had this problem and some other people will have it too or I am stupid an my vbulletin is totally corrupted.

HMBeaty
05-05-2007, 10:32 PM
Well, either way, thats fine for me. I really don't care if you install or not. I DO know that I can't fix your problem without being able to reproduce it.

HMBeaty
05-05-2007, 10:38 PM
Just FYI, I have vb ad management installed and EVERYTHING is still there.

Me too. I suggest you try figuring out the problem before bashing someones work. Seeing how your the ONLY one with this problem it has to be something you already have installed conflicting with this addon. No need to demand it be removed your one out of many who have it installed.
I would try Re-installing it allowing overwrite then log out of your admin cp and back in let us know what happens. If all else fails I would hope you have a backup you could use in order to repair your site. VBulletin 101 ALWAYS BACK UP BEFORE MAKING ANY CHANGES

I do not understand why you would not allow someone who offers to fix your stuff for free temp access. That would allow Redline to solve this issue for you and make any needed changes for future users.


Redline I also second that suggestion about being able to have the Default VB options listed Alph. Then under that have the Addons listed in Alph. That would be awesome.

I installed on a other clean forum cpsetting and vb ad management. AND NO SORTING AND NO POSSIBILITY TO CHANGE THE CPSETTING. How you will explain this?

So you're breaking the rules to tell people that my hack is affecting ONLY your site?

admins please stop this plugin.There is no evidence that anyone other than yourself has had this problem, so I see no reason to remove this.

I have however removed your signature, it was not acceptable and you will not use it again.

the important thing is: ITS DELETING ADMINCP SETTINGS!

That shot proves what? that you have VB installed? why not show us the rest of the box?
It just YOU no one else has this issue. I have two test boards and have gone thru the install 10 times now and I cant replicate your error or problem either. Only one issues I have seen with this is having to overwrite it sometimes. I suggest you let someone who knows what they are doing to take a look at it. And please relax when you take it upon yourself to edit VB you also take the RISK associated with it. The author is MORE than willing to help you out but your denying him that option so your on your own. Keep your negative remarks to yourself as well. Please.

Hey what's the difference between 2.0 and 2.1 version.. i don't see anywhere history notes...

BTW.. it works great..

Suggestion: Expand this plugin/hack so you can also sort left side of the CPannel.. not just the Vbulletin Options.. :)

Unfortunately, I have encountered an error with this modification. Whenever I goto any of my options, the side bar consisting of the whole management of the admin cp is removed. More can be found here (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?p=1242327#post1242327). I tried just removing the files and the xml but it still occurred, Im still looking through this issue to see if this was truly the source of the error that I am having.

Suggestion to users that are having problems:
Reupload your xml's from any lost modifications or the vBulletin default xml if you are having errors with the side bar or missing options. If it says file not found, upload the whole folder, /admincp/ from your vBulletin download.

@OP: Nice hack, I truely don't need this seeing as I am removing and adding my own ACP features while removing the vBulletin default things, but when I get my new owned license I will install this. :)
