Default Installing Plugin/Product problem....

Hi all, hoping for some pro help or from someone who can tell me whats gone wrong!

OK - So i downloaded and followed the instructions here for an advanced sticky options plug in (so i can position old sticky's at the top of the forums)

Importing the plug in - i found this instruction difficult having never done it before and not being able 2 find any guides on this forum.. anyway, vbulletin said it was a product not a plug in, so i installed a product, filled in the details so it pointed to the .php file i had uploaded to my 'cron' folder. How to "turn on" a plugin or product i do not know, but when i EDIT a thread the advanced sticky options appear so i guess ive done something right!

The problem is when i specify a position and click save the changes are not made
and the sticky remains in the same position it would be if this plugin/product were not installed at all!

I also added some code to my threadadmin_editthread as per the plugin thread linked at the top of my post.. so my threadadmin_editthread now reads as follows incase the fault is in there?? ;

Code:
<form action="postings.php" method="post" name="vbform">
<input type="hidden" name="s" value="$session[sessionhash]" />
<input type="hidden" name="t" value="$threadid" />
<input type="hidden" name="do" value="updatethread" />

Anyone got any ideas?

The guy who made the plug in does not accept PM's and he's not online at all (msn) so im at a lost end..

umm, because that thread is ages old and I doubt anyone will even check it now, so i thought there was more chance of people replying if i created a new one. That ok for you?

Now a question for you... why post at all if you have nothing constructive to say???

ummm, because you aren't intelligent enough to figure out what to do on your own.

GearTripper is right. Post for support in the thread. Just because the author isn't active doesn't mean you won't get help.

But surely if the read is realyl old and hasnt been used for ages no one will check it for new posts (ie mine) and then post a reply? (yes/no?)

And with over 28 views on this thread i would of thought some one mita said something helpful other than 'go post elsewhere' ..so whilst i appreciate your comment for organisation sake of the board/forum, i find these responses quite disheartening for a new member!

As for Tripper.. there are more polite ways to speak to people you know - perhaps it is a lack of intelligence on your part which leaves you unable to comment and direct people in the right direction POLITLEY without being a total prick?

my first reply was polite, but that didn't work... neither did the second, or another's third... what will it take to get through your thick head that you've been given correct advice twice now? are you just THAT stubborn? think what you want because well, you're new here and must know how things run moreso then a couple of users that have been here for years. talk about thick. you're only making yourself look worse by keeping this thread going bringing it to the top. suit yourself.

That's enough. Either behave or ignore this thread.

if that was directed towards me... i'm not going to ignore someone who first claims that my suggestion wasn't constructive, when it was and then openly calling me a "prick".

It was directed at everyone who has been bashing other members in this thread.
