You even replied in my thread, although not directly to me... and as can be seen others have the same issue running the same configuration. (vB index.php file outside of the forum dir so the CMS is running in the domain and the forums below in /forum/ dir).

I'm not arguing that with a lot of work this product probably could be made to function.

But it wasn't just that which made me switch. ibProArcade is broken. No one can download the product offered on this page, install it and have it working out of the box. They have to edit files to fix a lot of bugs. Things like the arcade's template loading messed up in vB4 after the default install, no native support for adding a new arcade tab in vB4 (requires someone elses plugin), hiscores not saving.. etc. If this product was supported by its developer they surely would have taken all these fixes from the community by now and built a fully working and fixed new version of this product. They haven't, therefore it isn't supported and is broken.

Another is the need to still manually edit forum template files. These should all be auto edited by the product these days. The need to manually edit files should be long gone.

I do commend you Hippy for your personal dedication to this product and all the help you seem to now be giving to members with problems. Why don't you do exactly what I suggest? Fix the product and offer an updated fixed version that actually works with vB4? I would even suggest you offer to take over this project from the developer as you are supporting it 100 times better than he ever did.

Another huge thing that V3 Arcade is doing, which this product really needs to do, is ditching custom templates within its own product and moving over to using vB4's own template structure. This means the product uses the forums custom templates and will automatically look right.
