UPDATE:

I found my userID and edited my includes/config.php file to have me listed as a superadministrator and it resumed all my administrator priviledges.

I still have the wierd problem of not being able post because it says my message is too short. When sending a PM I can type text in the PM and send it, but the person recieving it gets a blank message. Anyhow, here are my list of programs.....let me know if you think any of these run during posting.....keep in mind, this problem only occured when I installed the new version of AEdetector.

I just tried Disabling every one of these mods and it did not fix the problem.....any thoughts? if you think you might be able to figure it out by looking at my board let me know and i'll PM you login details with admin priviledges.

I don't use:

Cyb - Attention Zero-Posters 1.3 Cyb - Attention Zero-Posters
Cyb - Sticky-Closed-Poll Prefixes 1.8 Cyb - Sticky-Closed-Poll Prefixes
Cyb - Top Posters In Month X 1.0 Cyb - Top Posters In Month X

All the others including the AE Detector are installed on my forum and works pretty well.

If I had this problem, I disable the Forum Plug in System, then I made a test, if works fine I should activated and test each one.

This kind of problems happens because you install a few mods and you didn't take the time to make test to check if all works fine. Maybe the problem is not on the mods, maybe you change a setting and you even remember.

Maybe this help you, maybe don't. Here is what I have installed on my forum and all works pretty well.

Just like yag mentioned, I suggest you disable some modifications (primarily the ones having to do with posts) and see if you can pinpoint the problem.

I've already DISABLED every single mod....including yours....and the problem is still there.

also, when i try to select a checkbox that selects multiple checkboxes beneath it, such as deleting all your PM's on a page, or selecting all the tables on Maintenance -> Repair/Optimize Tables......it doesnt select all the boxes, you have to check each individually.

My offer is still open if you want me to give you admin access to my board to see if you can figure it out. V-Bulletin's own tech support is not much help.

the instructions i had for VB3.8.2 never said to upload in anything other than automatic mode.....if i upload 3.8.4 what mode should i upload in?

I INSTALLED it ok set the settings

How can I find already register members ips that have multiple accounts

I just upgraded from 3.6.0 to 3.8.4 and removed the former AE detector and installed this one. All seems to be working fine , so thank you very much for a great product. Its very much needed on busy forums.

( Just posted to confirm no issues on 3.8.4 and to say thanks )

Wait for them to use the other account....you will be alerted when they do.

I apologise if this has already been answered, but there is a lot of posts to go through.

I've installed on 3.8.4 no problems. It all seems to be working fine except for one minor issue. If a user is "moderated", i.e. allowed by an admin, before they verify their email address, they are then normal registered users without having to follow the email link to verify their address. I'm not sure if this is a problem with the modification or vbulletin itself.

Thanks.
