Thanks

I finally upgraded last night and no problems so far... Haven't tested ladder yet though.

[bahisyeri]

It has some template problems with base href i mean that links and some js functions not working when base href used most seo hacks uses base href...
PS: On ladder system if system set for players you can challenge other players but for team system i couldnt find how to challenge other team :/
PSS: Also after confirming challenge score, challenge scores stopping displaying on ladder challenges page of user.

[Toupsx]

Well don't know why but I can't install any version of this now... last version I was able to was 2.5.8 now anytime I try any version it installs the product but never finishes so doesn't actually do any settings such as putting the competition permissions or settings in the admincp and such..
Not sure what to do.. =\

It just sits there at
Importing Product, Please Wait...

[:]

never finishing... my server isn't timing out according to my host because there's no limit.. the only limit is on the memory which is 44mb and you said that it shouldn't be using that much I believe previously so not sure what's going on..

[Im Spazzoid]

I would love to be able to make it so that users can only be on one team per ladder, but have multiple teams so that they can be in multiple ladders. Also, categories would be nice, along with double elimination. I know that I would be willing to put my donation in if I could get those features, saves me from writing my own script

Although I am still testing this out so maybe it already has some of those

I don't know if I'm stupid or what, but I cannot seem to find where to challenge other players in a ladder set to players or teams.

[shane greer]

Since he latest update no one can make challenges on the ladder. Have I missed something or put something in the wrong place. Everything else works fine in relation to newest results and forthcoming matches etc.

Now when i click on a player o challenge I only have this.

[Im Spazzoid]

shane greer that is the same thing that happens to me

[shane greer]

Must be something missed out in the latest upgrade?

[shane greer]

Is there anybody out there can help?
