1 - When using Portuguese (my primary language) the "Join tournament" link does not appear, even with it translated. If I switch to English, it appears fine.
2 - The same happens to the "Add player" link witch is also translated.
3 - There is no way to translate the "PM me the detais" string.
4 - The + and - buttons to increase/decrease the numbers of players doesn't appear also when using Portuguese language, only when using English.
5 - When I tried to join a tournament, got this mysql error:
Thats all for now.
Keep the good work!
If you change translate the phrases related to tournament status ($vbphrase['tmnt_waiting'], $vbphrase['tmnt_inprogress'], $vbphrase['tmnt_finished']) then it wont work. I will be changing this in later version.
Is it possible to make it so a user can advance their opponent, basically admitting their own defeat, instead of needing a person that can edit to do it?
HA! I had the exact same idea last night!
Crazy.
I also second the idea of Randomizing brackets upon starting the tourney.. or at least being able to ajax reorder them manually.. whatevers easier to code!

The players already are put into random order for tournaments.
I was going to suggest putting then randomly as well, but then I discovered it already does that. I didn't check, but I assume you could reorganize them manually by editing the database. Not too important, but any plans of letting us set the brackets up our own custom way?
Again, I'd like to thank you for all the recent updates. This mod seems to be getting better with each one!
Few questions. I've setup several test events (as Im sure most have) during testing of this mod. I've removed all the brackets now, but in the HOF its still showing as having winners. Is there a way to remove these records (even if through myphpadmin?)
Also, I read that there is already a way to have stats show in profiles? If so, how? I've not yet been able to figure that one out if its even possible yet.
Like I said before, this mod is without a doubt my new favorite VB addon. Thank you very much!
I gotta admit however, what I was really looking for was a mod that lays out just like this but allows for, say, the opening thread that is created to serve as the "ready, get set, go!" thread where people can battle whether it was a flame war, rap contest, etc. that people could score or use a thumbs up or thumbs down on but that probably goes far beyond the planned capabilities of this hack.
I was really hoping for some sort of scoring ability that regular members could give the people involved in the tournament.
I do have to say that it's already awesome, just throwing my thoughts out there.
