Support
[hr]-[/hr]I use my released mods daily, if I find an issue with them or add features for myself I will release updates. If there are significant bugs or simple feature requests I will do my best to release fixes. Some of my mods rely on fetching data from 3rd party websites, due to the unreliable results, my mods will require users to troubleshoot for themselves if they find the addon is not working for them specifically. I am offering my personal mods that work ok for me for you to use, I am sorry I do not have time to troubleshoot many user specific issues. Thank you for your understanding.

Ah I thought that must be why it hadn't updated since 20th Jan. I look forward to the update.

i already wrote to the author for this one. even mentioned a payment for work, if it would be possible to create one...

[GamerPerfection]

Any news on how an update to the fix is looking?

[Gryphon]

3x version is out, it will take me a couple more days to work on 4x.

[Travis641]

I have it working on 4.x, as you can see here, but out of respect for the original author, I won't release the code. If you really need it now, I guess you can figure it out from the 3.8 version as long as you understand some php.

Also another reason, I'm not going to post the code, is I have people who are viewing this thread, with illegal vbulletins, bothering me on AIM and my website for help with theirs.
