What does 'Marking As Installed' do ?

* It helps you to stay on top of updates - members who have installed modifications will be notified whenever new updates are available.

* For security issues - vbulletin.org will contact all members who have installed a modification whenever a security issue is brought to their attention.

* Marking a modification as installed also helps me know how many people are using my work, giving me extra incentive to provide more features and new modifications.

I appreciate the support!

thanks.

No I do not believe anyone has done that as of yet. There is really nothing in the front end to translate, just the settings in the ACP.

Thanks for marking as installed.

I install and working fine but 1 problem
I already install Duplicate IP report Mod
when i check reports my ID is showing in all new register users
example
Duplicate IP Report
IP:123.123.123.3
Me (5000 Posts), New User (1 post)
?

[ozzy47]

Yeah as of now it is using the new members IP when it posts the thread. As for the post count, it may just be that mod reporting that, as the post count is increasing for the user that is posting the thread, not the new user.

I have a XML, that changes the IP from the new members IP to 000.000.000. I will attach it here for now.

I just noticed that some things get parsed in welcome message like it was posted by human.

It could be important for mentioning, if you could figure out why.

VaultWiki (full version) has option to automatically link wiki articles names if it founds them in posts. And they get parsed into links in welcome messages, so something is parsed as it was posted by human.

Maybe it has something with plugin priority? Or something else, but some things get parsed, even if mentions doesn't.
