Would it be possible to make tournaments best out 3, 5, 7. On the tree you would be able to change the series every time someone wins then it would only advance after 2 , 3 , 4 wins depending on the series?
The above error is occuring due to a missing column in your mysql database. Table 'vbtmnt_ladders' is missing column 'groupid' with following details: int(10), NOT NULL, default value '0'.
Have you imported the latest product file, allowing over-write?
Yeah, I originally had 4.2.0, but that gave me all the errors. I tried the 4.2.1 beta and its working now.
We are in the online competitive gaming scene playing the likes of Call of Duty 4 and more and would like to get more involved with running cups/tournaments/ladders as do other gaming orgs, but most of the popular cup sites use webspell with its own cup addon, we would like to utilize our vb with your mod.
We have the Tournaments & Ladders Manager v4.2.0 mod installed on our site http://high-jinx.net/competitions.php, we are playing around with it until we go live, we have a few requests or ideas for a future version.
edit each round or stage of a tournament
add round 1, round 2, quarterfinal, semi-final, final plus an image insert
manually move teams into tournament slots
option to prefix teams with a branding name
shorten the width of the tree background (possibly our style modification)
This was awesome in my 3.8.6 forum just upgraded to 4 and all is good. But where do you now add team logos? There is no button or I'm just not seeing it
Thank you much
D'oh nevermind. My template skin is dark and did not see the edit button!
Hi. Using VB 4.0.5 and my Members can't see the 'Help' link for tournaments when logged in. But if they log out they can see it? Also, they can't signup as a free agent because they can't see the free agent link either. But when not logged in we can see it? How can I fix this?
