i am using vBulletin 3.0.9 , i wait the port thanx

Is there a way to require a recip? Possibly a bit of code that reads the "Added" page and scans for a recip link on the page, and denies the site addition if one doesn't exist?

Most TopLists work off of the principal of getting more IN links, and if there isn't a check for recips, it will get cumbersome to try to keep up with all of the links and checking to be sure they don't remove your link.

Just a suggestion.

*installed* the hack - thanks for sharing!

but how about the incoming link?
it is only linked to the forum and not to the toplist !
is there any way to change it?

if you show for something how to make the Link with a button:

Hey,

I'll try and release a new version in a few days to have most of those changes. Keep posting your ideas/suggestions, it helps me out a lot. Also ThePimp, I am looking into adding that feature as well.

[derekivey]

ThePimp, I'm not quite sure how to do that part, sorry.

no work with BBcode for description, damage

Suggestions, after add a site, a button is missing to return to toplist

[derekivey]

Ok Thank You for telling me about the button missing. Also, why would you need BBCode for the description of the site?

To put in fat or italic for example, for a description, it is always useful

ps: Attach Files, the french language

[derekivey]

Ok, I'll look into it and see if I can add it. Also, thanks for translating it . I will add it and give you credit for it.
