Detecting if a product is installed and enabled?

[endquote]

You can see if another product is installed by looking at $vbulletin->products['ProductID'], but is there a way to tell if it's enabled or not? Dumping the $vbulletin object isn't really telling me anything.

SELECT * FROM product WHERE productid='foobar' AND active=1

Or, to avoid Queries and to be sure that not just the Product is enabled but also the Plugin(s):
Set a Flag with the Plugin(s) and check that.

the value of $vbulletin->products['ProductID'] should be 0 for not active, or 1 for active. Enabling/disabling a product however is not updating the datastore. This is a bug that is solved in RC3: Enable/disable product don't update products datastore (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/bugs35.php?do=view&bugid=1020)

**groan** Does that mean we have to reinstall all the products/plugins?

That i can not answer, but solving the bug itself will not need a new install of the products.
