can I run this module ( vBAdvanced Donations Module ) in vportal and vbulletin??

Mark,

I could get to this forum this morning now I can not.

For some reason, anytime someone donates, in the mySQL user table, showdonor has a value of 0 and not 1.

Very unfortunate, but it's been removed by the author.

By the author or vbulletin.org? I really do not understand why the author would remove it.

Anyone know how I would add the donations I already received by another paypal mod to this one ? Instead of starting at 0, I need to start at say $100 I already got before?

thanks

I hope that it was taken down because it was not ready for a beta rather than the thread author getting bummed out about how people were reporting the problems.

This hack is really good. I used it in the prior version of vB and it is incredible. I would probably pay for it if someone had a commercial version for 3.6 at this point.

I PM'd the thread author and offered to do alpha/pre public release testing on the thing but haven't heard back.

As a policy issue, I would suggest to vbulletin.org that they come up with a new way of handling threads being taken down. If a thread is taken down at the request of the author, it would be nice to have a short sentence as to why. This way, the link isn't simply dead (reports a permission problem) and it also gives people an idea of what is going on with the modification.

edit: If the thread was removed because it violated some terms of service on these forums, I would understand not giving any message. But otherwise it might be nice to have threads that are taken down 'fail gracefully.'

There was no admin intervention in pulling the threads due to policy. We were waiting on determination from the admins regards to the GPL which was on the 3.5 hack. But due to the many PM complaints and flaming it was decided to just pull the 3.6 thread and discontinue the effort. Maintain the Harmony in the community if you will.

This is all that will be said regards to the matter as it is a closed issue in our minds.

If I try to install this in 3.6 it won't work?

if you read through the threads you will see that I have mentioned many times the authors file will not work. There is a zip file back in the threads with a XML file to import the hack for later versions plus the the other required files.
