Is anyone else getting a DB error when uploading the uploaded vba news fix? It is not working for me and created a DB error when going to the VBA page.

[thincom2000]

Well, what is the DB error?

[eviltechie]

I installed this, and it accomplishes the goal of showing BBCode/HTML, etc in the profile fields. However, I was working on some other things in the admin panel, and saved a usergroup for an unrelated reason...and instead of saving my changes it made a duplicate usergroup with the same name and the changes were saved in that. I worked on this for awhile, even going as far as disabling the product. Nothing worked. I eventually uninstalled it and usergroups started behaving normally again. Saving changes to the group that was being edited, not creating duplicates, etc.

I want to use this, but I can't as long as this bug exists.

I'm on 3.7.3 PL1.

Any ideas?

[thincom2000]

This is not something the mod would do. It only adds bitfields to the admin panel. This would not cause a duplication error. Please check your server logs to see if there were any errors associated with this happening.

BBcode appears to parse fine for the blog bits in the tab on the memberinfo page, but nothing at all in the actual blog section itself.

This problem still exists... This is a great mod btw

[nerofix]

Well, this problem is default by vbulletin. Only the blog entry itselfs parse bbcode when you watch the entry. In every overview or blog preview, bbcode wont get parsed.

Is this the only problem? Is the rest of it working okay?

[thincom2000]

You have to have HTML enabled for the particular forum/message type first in vBulletin's own settings. The mod does not attempt to override those settings.
