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.

Ok did what you just instructed and I still get the white page. Anything else I need to do in settings?

[CAG CheechDogg]

Oh bummer! I can't figure out the postbit white page bug. Does anyone know if the Postbit Info Forum IDs setting has anything to do with this working and now showing the white page when clicking on a thread?

I have it set for forum id 1 and still the white page....blah!

[Hippy]

the white page I never seen before so there is no fix posted ...
you can search for my posts here and I gave credit to everyone that posted a fix and I just put it all together...

[CAG CheechDogg]

Yeah its weird Hippy, is there something special I have to do in the settings? Like activate the specific forum IDs or something?

I haven't seen anything in reference to that white screen. Oh well, I will probably come back to this at another time. Thanks for your help Hippy!

[CAG CheechDogg]

I have been trying to "Mark as Installed" but it get the following :

CAG CheechDogg, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

[Hippy]

ok.. I will ponder it as well..

In case others still don't have the link to send a PM to someone working do the following:

Find your gxbl_bit template

Find and replace:

en-US/MessageCenter/Compose?gamertag=

With:

en-US/Messages?gamertag=

Good stuff Hippy! I am still trying to figure out why I get the blank white page when activating postbit...I read in previous posts on this thread that others were getting the same thing but no solution was ever given.

[CAG CheechDogg]

By the way, I tried it with the default template and that didn't fix it, so the template being used is not causing the issue.
