Im so happy to know that it's actually working :D

I'd like to see how it affects a big board actually.... so if anyone has one and uses this, please let me know

@C Braithwaite--Please add your updates to the original post. It gets confusing trying to figure out what I need to update and when.
It would also be helpful to know if I have to reupload the php or just overwrite the xml.
Cheers

just let me know the format you want it in.

Using this as an example;
History:
1.0.0
Initial Version for vBulletin 3.5

1.1.0
Added Rule(s) from URL
Fixed typo in Phrase

1.1.1
Fixed bug with new registration
-> to upgrade, import product-rulesagreement.xml and set Allow Overwrite to yes

1.1.2
Fixed bug with Reseting Rules every 12 hours
-> to upgrade, import product-rulesagreement.xml and set Allow Overwrite to yes

1.1.3
Fixed bug with with TABLE_PREFIX missing
-> to upgrade, import product-rulesagreement.xml and set Allow Overwrite to yes

Adding something along these lines would eliminate a lot of confusion and allow those wary of bugs posted in comments to see when they are resolved.

How do I go about removing the link that this mod added to the footer of my board without permission or without notification in the description of the modification?

uninstall the mod

AdminCP -> Manage Products -> Uninstall

hmm.. i use a skin for my forum and it don't show that link, is that ok or do i have to have the link there?..

I'm not going to make a big deal about it if it doesn't show for whatever reason so dont worry about it, WEBDosser.


It annoys me however when people will download my code for their forum and then make demands of me, complain or wish not to give credit where credit is due.

credit is given by clicking install.. however, i will edit the code for the emails sent out to include your link.. if that is ok with you?.

just IMO the footer is not a good place to force a link on someone website.

I don't see anything added in my footer but I agree with this. If an add-on affects the entire forum sitewide (e.g., Zoints SEO), I can see a footer link. But in general, I don't think it's appropriate.

I think the suggestion of adding a line or two at the bottom of sent emails is more appropriate.
