It's required that you have debug mode ON when editting/adding some features

DESCRIPTION:

A center product area which allow you to manage all codes/plugins/templates/phrases/settings /crons for any product.
It also add some additional fields to the product, just to save more information with a product
Release Date
Product Author
Extra Information
Install date

The extra information is only available if you install APM, and use APM to export/import other product.
It does not have any conflict with original product. You still can use APM to import standard product, or use standard product tool to import APM's product files.

INSTALL:
1. Upload all files in UPLOAD folder to your server
2. Import XML product (product-adv_product_management_XXX.xml) using vBulletin standard product import tool.
3. Refresh menu panel to display Advanced Product Management link in Plugin System section

{optional} - Re-import product-adv_product_management.xml using APM import product tool, with Allow Overwrite = Yes
This step is inserting more information into the product.
* CAUTION: DONOT use APM to import the product itself (product-adv_product_management.xml) BEFORE step 2.

UPGRADE:
1. Upload all files in UPLOAD folder to your server (replace the old files
2. Import XML product with "Allow Overwrite" option checked
3. Enjoy!

I did that of course. First i created the template and after that comes the error message. The template is there, but's not specified to the addon.

See the current plugin.php for the appropriate code to handle this. As seen in that file, blocks also need to be rebuilt.

It's also possible you need to update the import/export to handle grids, blocks, etc.

These bugs still haven't been addressed. It drives my clients mad whenever they install/enable/disable mods using this. It also breaks functionality in the default vB Suite.

How does it break functionality in the default vB Suite?

With vB4.1.0pl2 I get this error when I go to the APM screen:

-----------------------------------------------------
Content Encoding Error

The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because it uses an invalid or unsupported form of compression.

* Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem.
------------------------------------------------------

This only started after installing 4.1pl2

Also, the new cpnav that was posted above gives this error:

--------------------------------
Invalid File Specified
--------------------------------

Any ideas?

Thanks!
