Add-On Releases - Alias V2.1

Due to the pricing and yearly fee of vBulletin I am no longer creating mods for vBulletin, instead I have stepped out of the shadow of vBulletin to create my own stand alone mods. I wish to thank everyone who downloaded and installed my mods but as of now with not being able to afford hosting and vBulletin, I decided to drop vBulletin so hopes of me returning would only happen if my newest venture brings me a nice profit.

Thank you all again
Steve

As of right now Alias does not work with 3.6.x, I however will make sure Alias 3.0 works with 3.6.x

I have scrapped the old feature list and am continuing with a new feature list. Hide options will not be implemented at this time, too many errors causing Alias to quit working.

FYI, I plan to take Alias 2.2 and rework it, pretty much I am gonna redo the entire mod. This could take a few months so I promise you will see it back again.

any updates on this?

Steve, any news on your progress?

Cheers! Rob

Yes, the news is I am placing Alias back into production, I don't expect a quick release as I have big plans, very big plans for 3.0 which will take the mod to a new stage and bring users a whole new look at this mod plus their site.

EDIT: BTW, 3.0 will be available for 3.6.x and 3.7.x however it WILL NOT be available for 3.5.x any longer.

I have officially started on the next Alias mod, Alias 3.0 is a rework from the ground up with all features included but instead runs off of a user field instead of a custom field. Be prepared for glimpses.

We have a roleplay forum and we need a system that allows members to post under a name other than their normal name. I'd love to see a system like this with the following features:

Members can have more than 1 Alias.
The number of allowed aliases can be configured by usergroup.
Each alias can have its own avatar.
Forums can be permissioned to allow aliases (or not).
Forums that allow aliases can be configured to show the user's real name (or not).

HellRazor: Currently plans are for only 1 alias at a time but I will look into that. With 1 alias comes 1 avatar which is for the account. Forums will have permission for alias and show alias upon posting. Forums will have a checkbox to hide alias which can be turned off via acp, with your suggestion I will see about having that entered as an option as well.

I'm looking forward to this mod very much. If you need any help with testing, please let me know.
