thanks marco, that cleared up the problem, was a problem to do with case sensitivity
one more problem though
PHP Code:
<?php
// Settings
$settinggroup['threadbot']['phrase'] = 'threadBOT';
$settinggroup['threadbot']['displayorder'] = '6431';
$setting['threadbot_on']['titlephrase'] = '';
$setting['threadbot_on']['descphrase'] = '';
$setting['threadbot_on']['grouptitle'] = 'threadbot';
$setting['threadbot_on']['value'] = '1';
$setting['threadbot_on']['defaultvalue'] = 'yes';
$setting['threadbot_on']['optioncode'] = 'yesno';
$setting['threadbot_on']['displayorder'] = '10';
$setting['threadbot_username']['titlephrase'] = '';
$setting['threadbot_username']['descphrase'] = '';
$setting['threadbot_username']['grouptitle'] = 'threadbot';
$setting['threadbot_username']['value'] = 'jetzxia';
$setting['threadbot_username']['defaultvalue'] = '';
$setting['threadbot_username']['optioncode'] = '';
$setting['threadbot_username']['displayorder'] = '20';
$setting['threadbot_feeders']['titlephrase'] = '';
$setting['threadbot_feeders']['descphrase'] = '';
$setting['threadbot_feeders']['grouptitle'] = 'threadbot';
$setting['threadbot_feeders']['value'] = '18';
$setting['threadbot_feeders']['defaultvalue'] = '';
$setting['threadbot_feeders']['optioncode'] = '';
$setting['threadbot_feeders']['displayorder'] = '30';
?>
all of the phrases/text for those settings appear to be missing?
