for me too! uninstalled for another mod

[anupam_luv]

Have installed it just to remove spam blog entries...

When I click on "Delete as spammer" ... under Deletion Confirmation i choose only one option that is "Delete Third Party Data" (for deleting spammy blogs) and also choose to "ban user account"

It gives me the following php error :

Call to undefined function build_options() in /home3/anandpla/public_html/dstreetdirect.com/includes/class_dm_phpkd_vbsas.php on line 650

Also if I dont choose anything out of (Delete User Account / Ban user account) and keep it blank then it shows following vbulletin message (not error page)

"You have NOT selected any data to be deleted! Please return back and confirm which data SHOULD be deleted first and try again."

What could be the problem???

[anupam_luv]

And after retrying/refreshing the same page it shows following database error ....

Database error in vBulletin 4.2.0:

Not that I can see in the thread, best bet is to install it and see what you come up with.

[Hostboard]

Here is the latest release that should address the issues that have been outlined.
