Read through the various pages as it looks like there are several fixes that need to be made. YMMV

If you listen, you can hear a pin drop around here.
vBulletin is not the powerhouse of 3rd party support that it once was.
Many place the demise on the release of VB5 and the sale to Internet Brands.

In the case of this mod:
Developer Last Online: Nov 2016

You have a better chance of winning the lottery. Although there are developers out there but don't expect a $10 fix as they command a premium to support a dinosaur.

Work like a charm except for the [SHOWTOGROUPS] tag, crash the new thread page.
