Support
[hr]-[/hr]I use my released mods daily, if I find an issue with them or add features for myself I will release updates. If there are significant bugs or simple feature requests I will do my best to release fixes. Some of my mods rely on fetching data from 3rd party websites, due to the unreliable results, my mods will require users to troubleshoot for themselves if they find the addon is not working for them specifically. I am offering my personal mods that work ok for me for you to use, I am sorry I do not have time to troubleshoot many user specific issues. Thank you for your understanding.

It has to request and scan 1600 gamer cards, it takes a while, there is nothing you can do about how long it takes. I have some ideas for breaking up the process, I just haven't had time to work on it.

Regarding the error, it currently does not do anything about nonexistent cards. Does it stop or continue on with the other cards?

It stops with an 60 seconds timeout. It's always this card.

For now, you will have to edit that users profile and remove the underscore. I will add something to check for this to my todo list.

You could add regex to the profilefield to only allow an alphanumeric entry. I don't believe you can use anything other than letters, numbers and spaces.

Still it needs too much time:
Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 60 seconds exceeded in *\includes\class_rss_poster.php on line 127

Hmm, that might be a limitation of your server settings, I have seen leaderboards with more working ok. I will have to work on optimizing the cron. I am not sure what to suggest until then.

Sure, I could extend the limit up to 120 minutes, but that's not the point. While the cron is running the board is busy for the user. Currently I disabled the cron, waiting for a fix from you. A solution would be a PHP file that can be executed without vBulletin via real cron.

is it possible to rewrite the cron-job, so it doesn't read it from the field?

on my site users save their gamer-tags in an own row in the user-sheet, so I don't need the extra-field like you use it. any chance to get it working when it read out the data from the user-datasheet?
