Version 2.1 - March 11, 2002
================================================== ==
Well, it's been awhile! I sorta disappeared there while
doing many other things! I guess v2.0 that was supposed
to use the same images as vBStats didn't go as planned
(thanks Bane ). I removed this hack from my site
awhile ago when I was having some other problems. I have
finally decided to add it back and it worked great in 2.2.0,
and I'm sure it will work in all other 2.2.x versions.
Changes:
- Updated to work with vBulletin 2.2.x
- Added Display Flag in Member List - Thanks Orca
- Used slightly larger flag images by X-Fan (I did run
them through Ulead's 16-color optimization which cut
the total file size from 271K to 54K!)
- Added 'align="absmiddle"' to image tag for text vertical centering
- Fixed Bane's name in docs below where I botched it up!
- Support for 280 Countries
Version 2.0 - September 6, 2001
================================================== ==
Changes from v1.0:
- Images have been changed from country codes to country names
- Flags will now have their ALT text as country name.
- Modified Hack to work with Bane's vbStats hack that will be released in the future.
- Added CP Addon by Stasik and modded it for new country names
- Changed country field in USER table from CHAR(2) to VARCHAR(50)
- Support for 226 countries
Known Problems:
- Countries with a dash (-) or comma (,) will not show up
automatically in as selected when you or the member edit
their profile (Congo, Korea, and Micronesia are the only 3)
Anyone know a fix please let me know.
- The 'modifyprofile_country' template needs to be changed
to a default original templatesetid of -1 (changed templates
have the templatesetid set to 2) or else the Admin CP addon
will not work (Any ideas why?). To do this, use phpMyAdmin
and run this query:
UPDATE template SET templatesetid="-1" where title="modifyprofile_country"
This will move the template from the custom to default templates
and will be found in the 'User Option Templates' group.
Any questions or comments can be posted here. Enjoy!

I upgraded my board to 2.3 from 2.03 and I had the country flag hack installed on my old version.
So all I did to get this this hack to work was change the code on the php pages and upload.
Now I get:
Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_STRING' in /home/ryan/public_html/forum/admin/functions.php on line 2248
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/ryan/public_html/forum/admin/functions.php:2248) in /home/ryan/public_html/forum/admin/functions.php on line 1668
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: set_bbarraycookie() in /home/ryan/public_html/forum/showthread.php on line 265
-----------------------
One thing I also noticed while doing the search and replace,
was that in member.php the code that to replace didn't match the code in the instruction file i.e.:
I went ahead and replaced this code anyways... could this be the problem? do I need to remove the period?
----------------------
UPDATE:
I removed the country flag hack code from member.php and uploaded it. The above error no longer appeared, in the postbits the flag for each member appeared properly, the registration process worked with the flag... So I know the problem must be with the code on member.php
Thanks
UPDATE 2:
I found out about the period problem in a previous post and therefore made the necessary changes to the member.php code. The only problem I'm getting now is when someone attempts to edit their profile. The following error occurs:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: show_nopermission() in /home/ryan/public_html/forum/member.php on line 242
