...Database error in vBulletin Control Panel: Invalid SQL: DROP TABLE avatar_categories
mysql error: Unknown table 'avatar_categories'

Ever since I installed this hack any members that don't have their cookies enabled haven't been able to change their avatar. Any solution for that?

i did do the installation manually.. i did select yes to show up avatar categories and no to avatar category permissions. i'm also using 2.0.3

Could you create categories in the CP?
Did you execute the automatic or the manual installation?
Did you adjust Show up avatar categories in the CP -> Avatars / Categories -> Options to yes? Place for testing also Avatar Category Permissions to no and Show up not categorized avatars to yes!
Your version is 2.03? Try that out first times everything. I hope help me somewhat.

Ok, no message of existing table data and when I clicked Start, the blank gray page came up.

@mrlister
I cannot find serious errors. I tested it under 2.01 and 2.03. Works without problems.
Are all avatars (despite missing categories) displayed or are missing also avatars? Appear on the page, does where the avatars can be selected, below (xxx avatars total)?

Important: Do not manipulate the sql-database in table avatar_categories
by hand (do not delete NEVER record with id '1' in table avatar_categories)!

...Update avatar counter for 'not categorized avatars' to 107


Database update complete.That's all!
You can call this Script several times to make over still modifications

Have fun ;)

I believe that did it!! Thanks for your patience and this wonderful hack!
