Yes same here, any fix?

I've downgraded back to PL1 for now and it works again. Not the best option I know but chat disabled is no option at all. Anyway looks like this plugin is not maintained any longer. Any alternatives?

Last update: One year ago. Some of us are beginning to think this product is unsupported.

Error: 200 parsererror

The same: Error: 200 parser error

VB Ver. 5.1.10

After downloaded the latest version with hotfix today - I'm getting Error: 500 error

DragonByte no longer supports (updates) VB5 Products. From DragonByte's site on every VB5 Product:

However, I have had luck with them supporting the product for previous purchases.... you may want to post in their forum and ask them whether they might help out.

So as not to put words in anyone's mouth, if the product is no longer supported the tag needs to say so. The supposed issue was resolved back in July.

http://jira.vbulletin.com/browse/VBV-14825

DragonByte makes quality products but I've got a handful of clients who aren't very enthralled with the issues with the most popular modification in use, especially when there are no alternatives.

Devs dont give a damn....

That may well change once vB5 has hooks re-introduced but I can't say for sure as I'm not DB Tech nor one of it's staff.

If I had to guess, I'd say they'll be changing that here soon as the need for more vB5 mods increases in my opinion due to he sheer lack there of in the recent two years or so.

I would post on their site, remember this thread is for their free (non-paid/non-pro) version of their modification and support is provided first and foremost on their site despite the fact that they do login here regularly to support their products.

I wouldn't go that far, I mean seriously let's just pull off the white gloves and smack an innocent coder in the face who was paid to fabricate a product! That's silly at best! Despite the lack of replies as of late, 23 pages of support speaks wonders.

I will say though that the lack of replies in this thread as of late is a little concerning as you all noted its still marked as supported but no recent replies to issues. I would post on their site, one thing I noticed recently was an update made on either this file or the vB4 shoutbox but then wasn't updated on their actual site or vice-versa so some of you may have an outdated version that could possibly produce an error - I would check each and compare the file dates to ensure you have the most up-to-date version of the mod. Again, as mentioned above remember that support is given on their site before it's given here so following some form of procedure i.e. ask there first and await a reply then if none are given ask here etc would be best followed respectively.

When business builds sites using extensions and then forum updates making extensions installed, suddenly not working then its the Devs that dont give a damn.

Whether its the forum Devs or the Extensions devs, doesnt matter.....
What matters is the end user who pays for the forum and is getting (sometimes) sub standard development effort.

If the extension Devs are having issues with forum structure... they should be screaming for fixes... and so should the end user....

All in all, I came from IPB to here and now wondering if this was the best option.... I like vBulletin, but was very unaware of how slow the extension and template development is...

vB should be held accountable for the lack of extensions and devs should be more considerate with extensions they have made for vB5....

The only people who suffer is the end user.... "Taking the money and run" seems to be a relevant situation with the vB management for letting it get this way!
