On my vBulletin 3.7.3 board it is working well. On my buggy test forum (there are a lot of bugs because of code changes) with vBulletin 3.7.1 it doesn't work. :o

So I need a few persons that say me if it is working or not. ;)

did someone release the exact same thing like 1 day ago?

how is yours different?

Hi FreshFroot,

yes, I saw it. But I have released an older version of this mod 5 months ago. :o
So I started to develop the new version one week ago and this was fortune, that an other person has released a mod like this. ;)
But I think that there are many differences between this two mods. I haven't tested the other yet. :o The codes and the settings are completely different ;)

And settings like "Excluded Usergroups", "Excluded Forums" and "Display Location" are not available in the other mod. ;) You can look at the pictures...


Greetings.

P.S. And because this mod is much more older than the other one i hope that there aren't as many bugs... - I hope :D

I use postbit_legacy and it's not working at all for me.

This mod is definitely better executed and has better options than the one recently released, if only I could get it working!

In my situation it does not work for users who have the blog stats displayed in postbit_legacy.

Uninstalled for now

I could find a use for this in my forum, if it had a setting for "allowed forums".
Currently I would have to enter almost all my forums in the "excluded forums" list to use it...

@abrecher & crkgb
Sorry - I have to fix this problem. :( Has anybody an idea why it doesn't work? :o

@Michelle:
That is easy. ;)
Search for
and remove the ! in front of it. This should work.

Optional: Edit the phrases from excluded forums to included forums (or sth like this)


cu

Ok - Version 2.0.1 with the fix released.

I hope it is working now. ;)
