template: tmnt_display
HTML Code:
<td style="cursor: pointer;" class="vbmenu_control" id="tmnttools" nowrap="nowrap">

Will keep an eye on this thread with hopes we can just use the ladders one day.

You can disable tournament permissions for every usergroup. So no one can use the tournaments part, just ladders.

I've amended the files so tournament viewing permission is not needed to view ladders.

Then what exactly? ^^, I'm quite new with all such template codes. What exactly do I have to add/edit in order for it to view properly?

EDIT:
Small Issue:

When I select "PM me the details" in the drop down menu, I get:

Quote:
The following users were not found:

1. 3086
But that userID is mine. Is it because I have a | in my nickname? (FF|Skyrider).

Edit #2.

Tried with another nickname (normal skyrider) and got this error *the same*

Quote:
The following users were not found:

1. 21706

Edit #3:
Possible you can add a feature so you can reset everyone's winners/lost competitions?

Another small bug.

When I go to:
Tournament Hall of Fame

I see:

1 Skyrider
1= FF|skyrider

Shouldn't the 1= be 2?

Thanks for the update and the fix! Helped me a lot! . Also nominated this for MOTM.

No answer on my previous suggestion:

A matchfinder should be nice. Would it be a possible feature for the next version? People submit a forum with prefered rules etc and other teams can accept it (Team that submitted the match stays anonemous until the match is accepted).

Sorry I must have missed the suggestion. I don't really get it though, couldn't they just organise it and then challenge team
