If 3 in a row people are getting it, Im sure the next people that try it will...

I found the error, it was in the URL tag at the top, there is no opening "<" on the closing URL tag.

Line 7 should be
<url>https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?p=807808</url>

downloaded but showing errors

XML Error: mismatched tag at Line 213

Sorry about that. I've updated the zip file.

Forgive me if this has been asked already (prolly has in 58 pages), but is there a workaround for custom usergroups with this hack? I think the last time I tried working with it was September last year and I wasn't having too much luck with that.

As a spam/flood buffer we basically have a probationary usergroup that requires 5 posts before most board features become available, so obviously I must customize messages for that group to inspire them to get to/past that post count.

That fixed it thank you for the update.

i currently have Welcome Headers 3.6 on my vbulletin forum (v3.6.5) and wish to upgrade my forum to the latest version, and also welcome headers as well to the latest version,

how should i go about doing this, should i upgrade vbulletin first or welcome headers? and will my settings (welcome messages) be deleted?

Upgrade first

Thanks,

should i uninstall welcome headers before i upgrade vbulletin, if so, how would i do this?

Just disable it and then upgrade it after
