[DBTech] vBSuper PM's - Private Message Manager v1 (vB4) · **Released**: 05-23-2013

[DBTech] vBSuper PM's - Private Message Manager v1 (vB4)

Why use, vBSuper PM's?
Plain and simple, it is a full PM system enhancement. It has many options for admins to control how the members use pm's on their site

Want attachments in pm's? With the pro version this is allowed. Want to restrict pm's? This mod has many ways to do so. Want to allow users to block some users from pming them? This mod will allow that. Plus much, much more, which is described below.

There is not to many screenshots that I added due to the fact that there is just way to much to look at. Best thing to do is to download the mod and give it a test drive.

I don't know why it's always just me. I tried installing it on a new 4.2.3 forum. One that I just put up a couple of days ago. VERY few mods. It's not working there either. Hasn't caused any problems but notifications are certainly not working. Also, I just went to the Dragonbyte site because I thought I would download it from there in case there was a version newer than is here. I click on the link and it says "invalid product". Then when I go to the Store there, it's not even listed.

ozzy47 · #**213** 01-31-2015, 10:58 PM

I doubt the one on their site is newer, but ya never know, http://www.dragonbyte-tech.com/product/259-vbsuper-pms/

Fgaming · #**214** 02-01-2015, 02:06 AM

I have used the product before and love it, I'm trying to install it on a new forum and I keep getting this message (that i posted below) when trying to import the xml to the site. I have doubled and tripled checked my files and cant seem to figure out what happened.
public_html/forum/dbtech/vbsuper_pm/includes/class_install.php appears to be missing!

dknelson · #**215** 02-01-2015, 12:45 PM

Well I have no idea why it's not working for me but I'm giving up on it. I tried it on a brand new forum on a default style with only a couple of non-related mods. It shows up in the User Settings and the only option I have enable right now is notifications. It shows the percentage and etc. but the notifications still don't work. I have no idea.

DragonByte Tech · #**216** 02-03-2015, 06:27 PM

We run vBSuperPMs @ DBTech and I've read & replied to PMs via Tapatalk multiple times without issue.

Just so I'm 100% clear, what notifications are you missing? Sorry if you already specified, I couldn't find it

Fillip

dknelson · #**217** 02-03-2015, 06:37 PM

Just the standard notifications. Either falling folders or the stickies. Neither show up.

DragonByte Tech · #**218** 02-05-2015, 08:51 PM

Sorry, I'm not the original developer of this modification so I'm not sure what features you're referring to. Could you please show me screenshots of the vBOptions you've enabled for these features so I can make sure I'm testing the correct functionality?

Thank you

Fillip

Having same exact issue with creating Static HTML widget in CMS & only the Static HTML_config call

Using vB 4.2.2 PL 4. I didn't notice this issue until recently, as I have been out of town for several months working...late June - Dec 2014.

As I recall, vBSuper PM Lite 1.2.0 was updated on my system just prior to my departure, and nothing else done to my vB until just recently this year.

Recent updates includes vB 4.2.2 PL4 update and a couple or so of DragonByte Tech mods!

As my site is still in dev/testing status, I'll back-track and disable all mods and see if I can find the problem and let you know if success or fail

MistViper · #**220** 03-03-2015, 01:35 AM

Not sure if you mentioned this in your post, as I couldn't see it on there anywhere. If I buy Pro will your guys copyright still be there? And if so can I buy a branding free version?
