What's new in 2.4.1? The phrases and two bug fixes previously mentioned?

[rob01]

hi i cant compile with calendar, how i will be able to use this mod?

since i have a execution error in calendar :S
Fatal error: Call to undefined function cal_days_in_month() in ...../tournament.php on line 598

Hey, thanks for fixing the bugs!

Just found out that after you delete someone off the team the number doesn't update on the 'Team List'. It still shows 3 when there's only 2 left on the team.

Edit: Now that you changed 1v1 to be called Single Elimination, the whole tournament table with the brackets on the tournament result page disappeared.

If you go in the phrase manager and change Single Elimination back to 1v1 or anything short, the brackets reappear!

Thanks for the new update, some new bugs when you upload a team logo nothing happens also when making a new team the upload logo is not in there you need to create then edit your team to add it.

And the comment redirect is not working still

make sure you have reverted template tmnt_new

[valendono]

same problem..

Now that you changed 1v1 to be called Single Elimination, the whole tournament table with the brackets on the tournament result page disappeared.

and the pages not going to page comment after submitting comment..

2 of macro problem I saw after 2.4.1 release.. and can we have future for swapping player on "Single Elimination" because on competition we need to arrange who vs who sometimes.

[Stifmeister2]

This is not very big deal but if it's not too hard to fix:

- When user joins a tournament and later has his username changed, the old username will stay in the tournament page.

[Blackhat]

maybe add some options for vbcredits so the winning teams can earn some credits by winning etc ? or something along those lines! Just ideas

[Chris11987]

I was thinking something along those lines like if YAAS finally got automated awards, but IMO I think banana would work on combining his ladders + tournaments before implementing them to any other 3rd party modifications.

I 2nd that, since in most tournament environment, it is very common to give byes to 'seeded players/teams'.

Things are looking good tho!
