This may really help me save some time every day!!!

However, for greater clarity, I want to make sure I really understand what it will do.. and not do, so I don't screw up our site ...

I usually run the Maintenance routine called "Update User Titles and Ranks" once a day ..

I do it because there's a long standing bug in vBulletin that goes all the way back to v3 .

If a Contributing Member usergroup #10 subscription expires, vBulletin correctly changes the usergroup back to just Registered , but the rank graphic associated with the expired Contributing Member usergroup continues to appear in postbit etc, until I go manually and SAVE the user record in AdminCP or run the "update user titles and ranks" manually to get the now expired rank graphic for the member to disappear.

I've searched for years for some simple way of having the "update user titles and ranks" job run nightly as a maintenance function, as I'm really getting tired of having to go in and SAVE every user record after they get a new usergroup checked off, or their subscription expires.

Is this what this mod will do for us?

Regards,
Doug

ps: running v4.13pl8 of vBulletin ..

pss: is it necessary to put in a "replacement user title" in the options settings for this mod? When we manually run "Update User Titles and Ranks" under tasks, we don't specify anything?
