What does 'Marking As Installed' do ?

* It helps you to stay on top of updates - members who have installed modifications will be notified whenever new updates are available.

* For security issues - vbulletin.org will contact all members who have installed a modification whenever a security issue is brought to their attention.

* Marking a modification as installed also helps me know how many people are using my work, giving me extra incentive to provide more features and new modifications.

I appreciate the support!

Can you PM me the full unedited DB error, so I can see it in full? I just don't understand why I have never got this error on my site yet.

[dknelson]

So...you are saying that your site is better than ours?

[ozzy47]

No not at all, I just wish I knew what was causing it, so I can fix it. I hate having anyone get any errors using my mods.

Hello.
Yesterday I installed this mod, I want that, automatic reply only in one forum (the forum or presentations), and only want reply like post to a news threads opens for the users.
I configure like this:
Post As A New Thread? No
Posters ID (My userid)
Forum To Post To (I select the forum)
Post ID (I select ID1 because I want the reply are just after of first post in the new thread)
Welcome Thread Open? No
Sticky Thread? No

And not works.

I create news threads in this forum, but this mod not "auto reply".

I configure some bad?

In other question, I view that in admincp -Welcome Thread/Post - Tittles and Messages Settings, have a 10 threads/posts, use all random?

Thanks and regads.

I have mine set up to post as a new thread in a forum...but for what you want you might want to try it like this :

Thread ID: the id to the thread

Post ID: (leave blank) this will only post as a reply to a post and not as a new welcome to a thread which is what I assume you want....they are both very similar but you want to post as a new welcome post in a thread as they are coming in ...

Thanks CAG

But I don't understand very well...

I can't type Thread ID because I want that, auto reply at the new create threads for the users with her welcome, then, I want this mod autoreply at this new thread like reply/post.
I typpe Post ID 1, because I want the autoreply, post after at first post of new user.

Yes, I want this, auto post as news welcome post/reply in a threads that they are open with her welcome.

Sorry if I don't explained very well.
