The fetch userid when you attempt to add a player to a tournament is no longer working for me. It worked when I was on 2.6.9 and then recently upgraded to the most current 2.7.4. Any ideas? When you click the button, it does absolutly nothing. its like the button has no function at all.
I'll check this later.

Not directly a mod problem but a skin one i guess, but for some reason the 'tournament' link in the nav bar doesnt render quite correctly....notice the color bleeds into the bottom half of the bar, where as the other links do not. Any ideas how to fix that? I guess the a style template needs tweaking or something
EDIT: I found the style manager > edit template > header, but there is nothing in there for the 'Tournaments' link, so I guess thats getting added by some other method

Sorry but I have no experience with servers, you could try contacting your web server host and asking them
This mod is probably the main reason I got VB for my site, so am very excited about it, but unfortunately cannot get it to install... I have followed the readme instructions to the letter to upload all the files, however when I use Product Manager to upload the xml product file from my local drive (having set the overwrite to 'yes' as instructed), the importer freezes on the "Importing Product, Please Wait..." screen and the browser says 'Done'. If I move away fom this screen back to the AdminCP, the product shows in my Product Manager screen, but there are no options for it anywhere, or permission options, so it cannot be used. Having tried many times, on both my live and test forums (including a fresh install of both VB 3.7.4 and 3.8.0), and left it running for several hours (in case it was just slow to upload) I'm now unsure as to how to proceed. Can anyone help? I have successfully added other products without this issue.
