I get the same as mitch84, Forum Rules displays twice, seems to be a conflict with microNEWSLETTER. Turn off the newsletter and the Forum Rules displays correctly.
Any fix for this?

Sure enough, this evening all hell broke loose as one old time member absolutely refused to 'sign' the rules, and told everyone she could to do the same (this mod doesn't prevent Shoutbox use). I think she feels she's being singled out. Ah well...

Valter ...again my man...you are seriously blowing me away with these mods ..!! love it

Great mod thanks....running on 4.0.2

When I click on the "Manage Rules" link in the mod in the Admin CP, it opens the smile manager?

This has been noted several times by other people.

This ONLY seems to happen if I attempt to access that page while the hack is enabled. I'd prefer to be able to edit things while its NOT active .. ya know.

What is the fix for this?

To everyone who has the issue with the smilies. Put this at the end of your domain misc.php?do=vsarules

If you don't have the hack enabled, and go to the part of your site where the forum rules would generally show, you will get the smiley's page. The only way to correct this as of right now is to have the hack enabled,

I do not see the force users to read the rules again option on the user's profile. This mod was installed but i did not force everyone to read the rules so could it be that the user's have not accepted the rules so therefore i cannot force them to accept?

Also when i have the add forum rules to navbar enabled, it will double (showing 2 forum rules) when viewing profiles, etc...

Thanks

thank you
