Thank you Lynne!

This is what I would like to list as an Add-On as DJ has done the same for me in regards to his mod located here:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=184136

It should be listed as an add-on for my mod here:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=216978

Also I have this same problem (or oversight on my part ) with the same mod I released for 3.7 and 3.6 but wanted to confirm if it was me or something else before raining on your parade of daily errors

Let me know, I'll keep an eye open to this thread.

Thanks again!

Mike

Um.... uh.... weird! I can't figure this one out. I look through the settings on his mod and can't find where he input the thread ids. I'm a bit stumped. Maybe I can get Paul or another mod to help out on this.

I KNOW it's killing me softly lol...

I can see it retains JUST the id # when inputted but will not display it, DJ added mine fine but I cannot get it to work no matter what I try... It will show the Add-Ons listed like in DJ's but will not retain the code unless it's just the id number which is what confused me.. for example I went into an older mod I released that had an add-on listed i.e. my Ranks Mod I listed the Awards Mod as an add-on even though technically it's not but it's similar but enough of that point being I edited it via edit settings and the field for any add-on thread ID was empty so the DB already read it, said ok this is an add-on now clear the input box for the next entry however in that new mod if I enter just the thread ID it stays when you go back to edit it, I noticed that when going wtf naturally .

I'll be here, you know me I lurk here lol.

Thanks again!

Thanks so much David, Lynne, and Redline for all tuning in and getting it sorted!!!

Now, was it something I was doing wrong or ?

Curious is all

Here's the deal. There is nothing in your modification that will set this up. This has to do with his modification. In Edit Settings, there is a spot called:

Addon for thread: [ ] (Threadid of the original Modification)

Pay attention to the bolded part. By you entering his modification in yours there, you are claiming yours as the addon and his as the original. What you want is the opposite. This is altered in his modification.

Now, the question is, have you worked this out with Digital Jedi? If not, this will be reverted.

Yes I contacted him via PM, he added mine as an add-on and I was going to do the same since his deals directly w/ posbit_legacy and the posting part of the code and mine was made just for sigs for use in not only posbit_legacy but posbit as well. However DJ's mod was first and my mod should only be listed as an add-on not the other way around as that would be kind of rubbing off some of his credit based on how the system is setup I suppose and I could just leave a link to his mod in the post... Possible to review and consider each coder allowed to input add-ons for more shared credit and "respect" if the one coder has yours listed? I mean when you all go to 4.0 here that is? Just a thought but thanks and if need be change his back to where MY mod is simply the add-on.

Thanks David, as we admins on TGW say from time to time, You DA Man!
