I like the added bbcode facility...seems more secure than html. I can see this mod becoming one of the most popular once it's finished! I love it, anyway

It will be completed when it is completed. As for the query, it is a known bug that has to do with when you insert bbcode that uses " or '. I replied to your pm about this just now, if anyone knows how to fix this, please send me a PM!

Hey Blaine. Still wondering about the WYSIWYG not showing up under the description heading.. Any info?

Thanks again!!

Great mod. Works perfect on 3.6.4

Any chance of a vbadvanced module with latest items and time remaining?

i stared an auction, set it for 3 days. it says 2 days to go and it should have ended today. what cron should i use? or do i have something wrong?

[josh_B]

Have you edited your crontab settings for it? I checked them and it only checks to close on a sunday.. Change that to a * so it checks every day. Also the hour setting change to *
It will then check every day, every hour and then every 0 10 20 30 40 50 mins.. So every 10mins it will check to close.

Fantastic bit of kit for vb!
