Optionally, you can disallow users to link and unlink accounts from the usercp.

I had this installed and working in 4.2. After upgrading to 4.2.1, the link disappeared from the Navbar. Tried reinstalling, but no luck. I can set up the links in admin with no issues.

If anyone has this running in 4.2.1, please export the xml and post here.

This is to fix navbar link in vB 4.2.1.

I've changed version info to 2.0.11.

really big thanks valter i installed it in vb 4.2.1 and it's just working perfectly thanks again

[Expat]

Same here. It's working in 4.2.1 just as it did. Much appreciated.

Is it possible to change who has permission to link accounts down to the UserID? Because I allow a select few SuperMods to access the ACP and they can Administer Users, but I don't want them to be able to link accounts.

This Mod is great already, but I think it would be better if you can set who can link accounts, either by specific Usergroups or UserID.

Latest version with the fix posted above, I have what looks like an error with the layout in the code. Can someone help fix this minor appearance issue?

I'm either looking for it on one line or maybe just an abbreviation "QAS" as I only use it for admin and personal account linking.

Thanks.

You also could use my version, which asks for manual template edits (I use TMS, so this sorts problem for possible later upgrades): https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=100

Advantage is, you can place it wherever you like to have users between you can change and they have they own bar.

Does this work for VB5 series?
