great update stuie...just had to uninstall it earlier as i lost all ability to view threads with a db error...excellent timing...excelent work all around, you seem to have fixed all issues i have ever had with this...I'm def not
Good mod, however :
1) If I set up an "Over 18s" forum, it STILL shows in the forum list to under 18s. This is not good. It makes them curious
2) When setting things in the vBulletin control panel, you should use a drop down menu (defaulting to "older") rather than a text entry field.
I've had to uninstall this mod because my teen users were complaining that there were forums they could not see. I've installed this mod instead. I do think that Age Lock is a better mod, however, it lacks the ability to hide forums from the forum list. If it had that feature I'd definately use it instead.

Hi AngelBlue,
thanks for the comments,
however i dont see the advantage of hiding forums from visitors, maybe this is just me but i want my visitors too see what they can get?? i know in most cases if they see an adult section they will make a new account old enough to gain access but that's the choice of the user, it also passes any legal implacations onto them and off you
that said the next update will (hopefully ) include this feature as an extra option for those who do wish to hide them.
On another note any feature request would be greatful.
