Marco, I don't see the username change fields while in the Edit Password. It was working before but not now after I've moved servers. Any idea?

JAYEMULE · #**153** 01-14-2007, 02:41 PM

Will this work on VB 3.6 ? Would like to install if it does.

Snake · #**154** 01-16-2007, 07:23 AM

Yes it does.

I ended up writing a whole hack for reducing queries on showthread.php because I didn't realize this hack was causing it...

Acido's suggestion to add last username to the users table sounds like something I will do.

Any ports for 3.6.4 in progress?

Snake · #**159** 02-19-2007, 07:28 PM

I have been waiting for this, too.

PimvanJ · #**160** 02-20-2007, 10:16 AM

Well, this morning I try to give this a shot on my 3.6.4 board.
Guess what? After doing ALL the necessary template edits it just works without further editing...

So, reported working in 3.6.4

There are slight bugs in 3.6 ... Which have been posted a few pages back -.-

Snake · #**162** 02-20-2007, 05:06 PM

Shazz is right. Also I have reported a couple of bugs to Marco in which no one was really aware of it so yeah. We all are waiting for the update of this hack.

Kryative · #**163** 04-10-2007, 12:28 AM

Burley · #**164** 05-07-2007, 07:40 AM

Anybody know (or have an idea) when an update for this one will be released so it works perfectly on 3.6.5?

MarioK · #**165** 06-17-2007, 03:14 PM

Will this work on VB 3.6.7 ? Would like to install if it does.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
