nice, thanks.

Thanks for the update Paul. :)

thank you

Come on people, if you use this then please remember to click on that install link. :)

hey paul, it didnt work for me. no changes made to the templates. im using the default vb 3.6.0 template.

What do you mean "no changes made to the templates" ?

This has template changes, if you don't make them then it's not going to work ....

i see you updated the zip. the first version you uploaded only had the xml in it, no info on what template changes to make so i assumed that the plugin did it during the install process. i just dl'd the zip again and i see you have updated it with the required info.

I haven't changed or re-uploaded the zip. :confused:

nice hack.

installed it!
