Ok, this I fixed this by creating the "mgc_cb_evo" folder inside of the /includes directory and copying the class_display.php file (from the download, but in the mgc_cb_evo/classes folder) into there.

Not sure why those files were laid out in the wrong place in the upload, maybe because I'm using VB3 and the filesystem is set up for VB4?

Hi Vcize,

What you report is odd, the plugin attached to profile_complete :
"User option add in profile vB3"

is hooking to the profile.php file, no reason to have it point to includes directory.

Which vB3 version are u using ?

Someone actually got it working, I just can't figure out who/where it was after almost 500 pages here..

Stagger or someone was the one...

I know others on here (or VBDev) know...

I don't think VBDev has rights to do the CMS unless he codes it from the ground up or someone else gives him permission to since others already have made it for previous versions. Dev would know....

=================================

DUH......Just noticed this...

Got the problem fixed, now I don't see the error message no more. But I still have a dumb question, where is the link to the chat. Please help.

Thank you

I have a question. Is there a way in vbulletin to update every users timezone and daylight savings time settings at once? I have over 5000 users and really don't want to have to do each on individually. Thanks!

Please explain how this has ANY relevance to this modification?

Goto Vbulletin. This has nothing to do with the plugin. You need to run a sql query and if they aren't in the same time zone, you will have issues...

https://www.vbulletin.com/forum/forum.php <---- Use it.
