The problem is that when admins and moderators (who are able to use the hack) make a new thread the date provided by the mod is not the real one.

It is many hours before and posts seem to have been created from the future....haha The mod does not use the local time of the forum. If you have not noticed that soon, this can screw up the appearance of a forum and confuse the users.

It is in the forum options...not the userpgroup options....

Problem still exists....Users who are able to use the mod, when creating a new thread seem ti have posted the trhead tomorrow date. Their threads come from the future.... and this screws up the whole forum view.

Please coder provide an update if possible....

Yellow Slider, any possibility to provide an update for this mod, its buggy and I cannot use it in my 4.1.3 forum....although I love it so much!

<a href="https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=245183&highlight=change+owner" target="_blank">https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showt...t=change+owner</a> , just in case there is no update to this modification, i recently switched to this modification, it puts the change author on the modification tool and works with 4.1.3, i have had no problems with it thus far.

Thank you! I do not think the coder even takes a single look to this thread. There is no reply to the complains so many days now.... Stay away from this mod until it is fixed!

screw up my board was perfect but......... Now I make a post on any post and it makes it look like it was posted 4 hrs before the last post and not even configuring or touching this part of the modification

Yes this mod is a good idea but the dates it inputs seem to appear in the future. Ideally this mod wouldn't have post dates changeable, only author.

Im wondering if Yellow Slider is ok. I havent seen him online for long time and hoping that someone fix or update this mod
