NCODE PRODUCT UPDATES CRON VBULLETIN 3.6.0

I. What does it do
This plugin provides a cron job which checks for new versions of your installed products each day. It reports by email and through the scheduled taks log.

II. What does it not do
This plugin cannot and does not update products automatically. It does not change your vBulletin installation.

III. Installation
1. Upload "ncode_productupdates.php" to includes/cron
2. Use the product manager in vBulletin to import the file "product-ncode_productupdatescron.xml"

IV. Configuration
In the options panel you are able to find two options regarding this product. By default the reports are sent to the webmaster email address. You can override this behavior by altering the setting "Destination Email".
This scheduled task will report errors that occured while fetching version information by email. If you do not want to receive reports on this, change the option "Send Version Check Errors" to No.

I don't follow what GPL has to do with the comment I highlighted. If you are charging for this mod then you cannot release it here. If you are not charging for it then it's free and that comment is nonsense and confusing, and needs to be removed.

I think he means we're free to use it, but not free to sell it or modify it. I could be wrong though.

[Spleasure]

It's free as free to use, but not free as in free software foundation. If it violates anything I'll remove it.

I'll try this tomorrow night... I like the idea!

[BadgerDog]

Great idea... consolidates everything and saves me looking through multiple emails.

Installed....

Now, I guess I wait and see what arrives in emails....

Thanks

Is there any way of stopping receiving this notification from coming into my mailbox every day? The offending mod works fine and I assume it's the result of the modder forgetting something?

Thanks
