Once again I apologize for posting in this. Can anyone help me get this modification functioning? Thanks! Could really use this plug-in.

You link accounts from the profile pages, in ACP. New fields for this added there, by this Mod I believe. The button only shows when you are logged into a account that is linked to other accounts.

That's what I mean though. I have an account linked with my admin account and there is no quick account switch option at all. It just tells me that my account is linked with another in the settings. That's it.

View this to see what I mean.
No buttons to edit or anything...

I tried unistalling it and reinstalling and now I can't. I get this error.

No idear. It's always worked fine on every vB I've ever adminned that had this installed.

is it compatible with the newest version of VB 4?
