IMG BBCode is not working for me, anyone else with the same issue?

[angeljs]

I'm getting the same database error. All I did was try to update it by importing the latest product. Now it won't install at all, even when I delete the stated fields from my database.

This is a known issue, unfortunately there has been no feedback from any of the vbulletin developers as to why img bbcode would not work.

The same database erros as who? Could you post the error message, please? And what mod version are we referring to?

Great Idea and great mod! My congratulations!

Database errors:

I have 2 versions of this mod and get the same error while trying to install either. I've tried deleting the duplicate fields, but the same error message keeps coming up.

I see what the error is, you might have to manually remove some entries from the database. If you could private message me the access details to the database admin consoler (phpmyadmin, usually) I would do the cleaning task for you.

[angeljs]

Okay, I managed to clear the database, but I'd tried so many times to install it that I ended up with about 50 blank extra profile fields! I had to un-install, delete all of the extra profile fields, then re-install, and now everything's fine.

Hello

I've installed the Mod and i say it works greatfull. And i can use the img bbcode in the Profile Intro.

You must Activate the Option: Using BBcode out of Forum under Vbulletin Option --> text: BB-Code.

Sry for my Bad English. It's only German Scool English

Just to stress it out:

Go to ACP->Options->BB Code Settings->Allow [IMG] Code in Non Forum Specific Areas->Set it to YES.

And yes, this solves problem of images not appearing. :up:
