[The Geek]

Hey everyone, I wanted to pop in and give a HUGE thanks to Jedi, hotwheels and the others for the amazing amount of support they have given everyone since I had to hang up my coders hat late last year.

Remember that destination sites like dailymotion, etc... can (and do) change their parameters from time to time which may require tweaking AME's definitions (which several users have done and shared). This is how AME was designed, to allow users to tweak, update, create and share all without having to update the AME code itself.

I keep getting a lot of PMs on here asking for AME use in blogs, user comments and other areas. TBH, I originally assumed that it would automatically do so, but on closer inspection vB uses different hooks and sometimes different classes for processing BBcode in these areas, so additional hooks and functions would have to be added to AME in order to accommodate this extended functionality. Saying that, it wouldn't be hard at all to do so for any experienced vB coder.

Between the additional functionality (that would be minor to do) and the additional XML definitions that users have updated or created I REALLY wish that .org had a sourceforge like ability to at least share out project development. One day maybe!

FWIW, AME works quite happily on 3.6 and 3.7 versions of vBulletin

I am pretty proud that this was my last community release (for the foreseeable future). Thanks for making it such a popular solution for so many sites. I hope you all get a lot of great use out of the work that was put into it.
