You don't seem to have the vBulletin copyright notice in the footer of your forum either.

I never noticed it wasn't there. I simply had the font color and the background color set to the same color. I updated it - thank you.

It annoys me when people hide advertisements for their own site in a simple modification that my regular members will never even see due to the very nature of the modification.

I'll just edit it out, I found where it's been added. I don't think it would kill you to simply stick a sentence in the description of the mod stating that you'll be advertising for free on the site of whoever downloads and installs it. Seems like a slight lack of integrity.

an install doesn't benefit me, but a link on a site does as google will spider it and boost my pr

I can't stop people from editing it out.

but I coded it, I coded it my way, and if people choose to use my code then they can either accept the link or edit it out themselves.

as for putting a link in the emails that is not needed. a nice little discrete link at the bottom of the page will be sufficient.

now I will not discuss this further.

any suggestions or bugs feel free to comment

That seems a little harsh to me.

Your choice, I suppose, and you're correct - those who object can edit it out. You might want to know, though, that it doesn't seem to be working - I don't see a link even in the vBulletin default theme and I haven't edited anything like that out of your add-on.

I wasn't being harsh, I was being honest. I've only been doing this for two years but I've never known any of the other mods I've downloaded to chimp in a plug for themselves, especially without notifying the installer that they'd be doing so. I edited it out because I think it looked terrible. The modifications I have to my board aren't any of my members' concern nor will I allow it to be used as spider food to boost his site.

Dj, the link shows up way at the bottom near the JelSoft information.

No it doesn't - not on my forum. have a look for yourself: http://forum.psychlinks.ca

dont worry yourself about it - honestly - it's not important.

Do the groups specified have to be primary groups or can they be additional groups? Also, what if a user that would receive an email is a member of more than one group you specify in the admin panel - would they get more than one email?

Lucky you.

each member will only receive 1 email despite being a member of multiple. it will send out to them if they are secondary members of your specified usergroups.

does this cause a problem?
