There are no differences as this plug-in works with both 3.5 and 3.6 versions of vBulletin.
If you are like me and migrated from .threads, a common modification was an "AE detector", a simple mod that saved a cookie of a history of ids logged into on your site. If someone logged into more than one account, you got a PM letting you know that your site was being accessed from multiple accounts.
Over the years this was very helpful in identifying users who were posting under multiple accounts (alter-egos!) and users who would return after being banned.
You might be wondering why I don't use the vbcookie call - well, thats because on logout all vB cookies are cleared, so we need to store a cookie that is not effected by the login/logout process.
New Installation
1. Add New Product with attached XML
2. Go to vBulletin Options -> AE Multiple Login Detection Settings and set your specific settings.
Time to install: Easy - 2 minutes.
Upgrade
If you installed this as a Plug-in manually, you can delete that plugin and install this Product, just make sure to go into the Options and set them accordingly.
I hope you find this useful and will click INSTALL if you use it; should it prove useful to enough people I can look at making this installation more automated without the need for edits and an Admin Options page.
To upgrade you will want to reimport this XML file and edit your options accordingly.
1.0.3
-----
. Added a check to ensure that users weren't deleted when reporting violations
. added htmlspecialchars_uni call to username
Note: I am unable to get the call to construct_phrase with $vbphrase['multiplelogin_alert'] to work reliably, as such the $message variable is still set manually inside the plug-in and not via the phrase. If anyone has an idea of why this might not always work, I'm all ears.
1.0.2
-----
. Updated to include exclusion groups, users
. Changed so PM is sent by ae sender id
1.0.1
-----
. Released as a Product (thank you PHPGeek2k3 for your help)
. Added option to post to a forum versus send a PM (or both)
. All settings moved into Admin Option
1.0.0
-----
Initial release.

Seems to be working on 3.6.4 so far.... did a test from same computer with different user names and it did what it was supposed to. Posted a thread in forum, sent PM's to moderators etc....
Only thing I'd like to do is clean up the "no soup" thing in the messages. Where do I do that?
I've been using the 3.5.x version since the original plugin was released. I recently removed the plugin, upgraded our board to 3.6.1, then installed the 3.6.x version.
I customized the "multiplelogin_alert" phrase removing the soup line and changing it to a custom message. However, it appears that the "multiplelogin_alert" phrase is only showing the default verbiage when we get an alert. If someone could please advise how to fix this we'd appreciate the insight.
Also, if we need to remove anything manually from the 3.5.x version, please let us know. We don't want any stray code around.
Working GREAT! I love this
I have clicked install
One suggestion for future improvement- would it be possible to have all the usernames listed in the title of the thread? It would make it much easier to find problems
AE Multiple Login Detection Settings does not appear in vBulletin options
I've already installed this hack. I'm running vBulletin v.3.6.5.
