Anyone know/remember what edits to make as I can't recompile php to get this to work and get past this error.

Thanks in advance!

Exact same error when creating a tournament.

Sent a pm. Is there a way to make it possible for the "challenged" to set date when accepting a challenge?

Greetings.

when i am creating a new tournament inside a category , i can't see it in html.
check this link
http://gamebattles.gr/forum/tournaments.php?c=1

for example like this

Το Gamebattles.gr και το Online κατάστημα E-Shop.gr διοργανώνει το επίσημο τουρνουά Burnout Paradise για το PS3 με έπαθλο για τον νικητή να είναι ένα Uncharted 2 : Among Thieves http://www.ps3vault.com/wp-content/u...ise-banner.jpg

as you can see , only the photo link appears , and not the image tag.
this think happens only in tournament inside the category.

i am using vbulletin 3.8.4 with latest version of tournaments&ladders

thanx in advance

I apologize if this has already been posted. I recently created a Last Man Standing tournament by accident when it needed to be a Single Elimination. The tournament already has a large amount of comments and all spots are filled. We would prefer not to have to delete the event and create a new one as the deadline is approaching. Is there a way to change the mode of the event after it has started? Thank you for taking the time to read this and for any help you may provide.

Players are no longer able to challenge. After they click the Challenge Player button, the challenge never goes through. Also, when editing a ladders information, there's a MySQL error.

Thanks.

As many may have asked, Is there going to be an update to v4.0 with this mod ?

If not may i get a coder to use this code and edit it to work for my forums ?
