Brief Description of the Hack:
The Hack Tracking Log is an advanced system for maintaining all your vBulletin hacks. You use it to install and / or create hacks, and it will automate many processes for the Admin.

Last update: Tuesday, January 27 (03:33 am CET)
The earlier bug fix caused a new bug to arise. Yes, you may smack me with the cluebat. I f00ked up in my bugfix. *slaps self*
Anyhoo, to patch your install, just overwrite your admincp/hackadmin.php with the new version found in the NEW ZIPFILE, attached below.
I've improved the entire

Former update: Monday, January 26 (2:42 PM CET)
BUG FOUND! A minor, harmless bug was found in the Make vB.org Post section of /admincp/hackadmin.php - to upgrade, re-download the zipfile (clear your cache first!) and overwrite hackadmin.php on your server with the new one. If you haven't yet installed the HTL, make sure to get the latest download and you should be fine. Thanks Rein for the report ^_^

Yes, all phrases are added - I now also found that I don't have access-right to modify any hack :surprised:

What is going on there ?

Where can I setup the rights for my admin-account that I can access and modify the hacks ?

[Renagade]

Thanks for the hack. Installing it now.

under the hack in question, you'd select edit hack details, then from there you add the userid of the admins you'd like access to install.

at least that's how its supposed to work.

Hi,
Just wantet to share that I did some research and found out what needed to be done to make the installation work past the step 2- missing button thing.

Here's the intructions I followed:
