It's required that you have debug mode ON when editting/adding some features

DESCRIPTION:

A center product area which allow you to manage all codes/plugins/templates/phrases/settings /crons for any product.
It also add some additional fields to the product, just to save more information with a product
Release Date
Product Author
Extra Information
Install date

The extra information is only available if you install APM, and use APM to export/import other product.
It does not have any conflict with original product. You still can use APM to import standard product, or use standard product tool to import APM's product files.

INSTALL:
1. Upload all files in UPLOAD folder to your server
2. Import XML product (product-adv_product_management_XXX.xml) using vBulletin standard product import tool.
3. Refresh menu panel to display Advanced Product Management link in Plugin System section

{optional} - Re-import product-adv_product_management.xml using APM import product tool, with Allow Overwrite = Yes
This step is inserting more information into the product.
* CAUTION: DONOT use APM to import product-adv_product_management.xml BEFORE step 2.

UPGRADE:
1. Upload all files in UPLOAD folder to your server (replace the old files
2. Import XML product with "Allow Overwrite" option checked
3. Enjoy!

TMS is another mod, not included in official vbulletin release. it has its own "license" conditions that I prefer not interfere with it, and i myself don't use it right now, so I dont have a plan on implementing support for TMS yet.

but if it is a very useful feature that being use by a lot of user, and if it doesnt violate TMS license, i may take a look. just not right now.

if you can change with standard vbulletin function, you should be able to do the same with APM. If your option cant be modified using vbulletin's standard function, it cant be modified in APM either.

JFYI, the URL in the product XML file still points to an old thread, not this one.

[MrZeropage]

You should check out TMS as it is really helpful for any vBulletin-installation.

It stores modifications to templates and does them on-the-fly, which means any vB-update does not need any re-work done to the templates, as the modifications stay intact.

Anybody once using TMS will never uninstall it, for sure

Support for it would be fantastic and your APM would be central management for all AddOns and everything related to it

tks Paul. fixed the link. i bet you already fixed it in your install, by changing the threadid #, so dont really need to re-import.
