I have seen plenty of modifications with "Lite" freeware versions and "PRO" licensed versions as a paid addon. It was a suggestion, since I noticed the author does not have 4.0.x running on their home site. :cool:

Kinda sounds like a rip-off to me, no offense.

HA-HAA! :D

Lynne said that as a suggestion on how to get the code fixed or ported to vB 4.0.x. ;)

What would it hurt to donate to the author, if your board depends on it? :)

That is my suggestion. Although, it might not be the athor's problem. :cool:

Well maybe with this economy I do not have any money to donate? :(

BTW, how hard would it be to upgrade it? would it need a total rewrite or just some small modifcations or something?

You, however, are more that welcome to take the time to upgrade it yourself and use it on your site. You are allowed to pay someone to upgrade it *for you* also (not for them to share with others).

Has anyone asked the developer if he would allow them to upgrade it to vB4 and release it?

Yes many people did, he is not responding for some months now...

So if he never responds no one is allowed to upgrade it?

I am willing to pay for an upgrade like that.
My website allmost died because I have upgraded and there isn't a mod like it.
I am waiting for vBCredits II now, but that isn't as good as vBexperience.
I simply don't have a choice.

Upgrade it and share it without his permission? No.

Upgrade it and use it on their own site without sharing it? Yes.

This got me wondering. If 20 webmasters all hire the same coder to privately patch their site, would this be a problem?

If you would take the copyright laws to the letter, then yes that would also be an issue.

Hello guys.

I have the green light from the developer to upgrade this mod!
I am just not that good, so I am going to hire someone.

After that vBExperience will be released for free on vbulletin.org

So, please. Do not hire anyone!

Edit: I requested an upgrade here

Really good move from you. Thanks. :)
Let's hope you find someone who is able to upgrade it.
