That indeed is true. The issue is there is no more stable VB than 3.8.7 and not ALL the plugins that are available for it are available for newer releases. That makes it impossible to ugrade forum when you are used to all the plugins you are using and cant find them for a newer release :/

Ok, in the thread you started in the open forums, you posted in the vB5 section. What version of vB are you running, 4 or 5?

[ozzy47]

If you are running vB4.x

It appears as if you have uploaded the files incorrectly.
Please drag and drop the contents of the upload folder (use Ctrl+A to select all files) to your public_html folder.

[ozzy47]

Hi i have installed the product on v4.2.2 and it runs 100%, i am a member on dragonbyte and i have bought many of your products, but i can't see this product on your site, so i am assuming it's free, what i would like to know is can we set the waiting period to change username from 21 days to 365 days?

If so could you show me what and where to change it please.

Check settings in usergroup settings for desired usergroup.
