Q: When I try to install this, I get "Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /includes/functions.php on line xxx".
What am I doing wrong? A: You are trying to import the XML as a Plugin which is wrong. It must be imported as a Product (ACP / Plugin System / Manage Products).
Q: Why does this Hack not work? A: Although it is possible that you have discovered a new Bug that causes it not to work, it is more likely that you have made an installation/configuration/customization mistake. Before asking for support, please check:
- Did you enter the Userid of the Sender?
- Does the sender have permission to use PMs?
- Does Usergroup registered have permission to use PMs?
- Are you using the original Phrases?
Please only click Install if you actually have installed/are using this Hack, and click Uninstall whan you don't use it any longer!

I'm still new at this but with the product manager, you can install phrases, templates, plug-ins and other things all in one file where as (if I get this right) the plug-in will install only the code needed for the mod. Don't quote me on that, though.
@BrentWilson
Hmm ... do you have PM Reception ticked as defaulr registration option?
Does Usergroup Registered have PM permissions?
Did you activate the account?
Do you moderate new users and approved the account?

Looks like a good plugin , but I can't get it to work.
I imported the xml file and check active on the plugin list.
Is there anything else I have to do?
Do I have to edit the plugin with php code?
