[lasto]

the bit u need to set up is in vbull admincp/ then go to options scroll down to you see the download credit options.

[NitroMan]

lasto i set the forums part i set it to 2,3 and still didnt work

[lasto]

just been to your forums m8 - maybe u need to go over the hack again.Its a real easy one to install so its got to be a problem on your side as this hack does work as ive tested it to death.

[NitroMan]

ok lasto go here and look
it still dosent show
how many credits u have only how many post

http://www.nitromanslounge.com/forum...hp?p=83#post83

as u can see here it is installed right

[lasto]

got to register to see that m8 - anyway if you are admin you wont see the credit in your own threads because in the setting above u have excempted yourself.

Remove the 6 and try to do a thread in the section which you desinated and see what happens then.

[NitroMan]

still dosent show i have posted as a admin and as a supermoderator
and removed the 6,7 still dosent show
i removed the 6,7 before i posted as a supermod

[NitroMan]

lasto what i am talking about is it is suspost to show how many credits u have available for downloading
and as u can see here it doesnt show it

[Deaths]

Are you sure you edited your postbit template, and not your postbit_legacy?

[NitroMan]

thanks deaths that is what it was i went by the install file and thought it was postbit_legacy

thanks for helping deaths

[tnguy3n]

Sorry guys, for now, this hack only has installer which insert phrases & settings to vb database. I'll write an un-installer & update instruction in some time, hopefully this weekend.
and yeah, you edit postbit or/and postbit_legacy depending on what postbit style you use.
