What does 'Marking As Installed' do ?

* It helps you to stay on top of updates - members who have installed modifications will be notified by us 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 us know how many people are using our work, giving us extra incentive to provide more features and new modifications.

We appreciate the support!

Using VB 4.1.3

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On a test forum with the same version i get this error
Fatal error: Call to a member function query_read() on a non-object in /home/public_html/test/dbtech/notifications/core/class_cache.php on line 29

no mods installed, only this one.

This should be fixed for you in 1.0.3

Still can't see any notifications, does this mod work in 4.1.3 or it's just for 4.1.4 ?

Should work with both! Make sure you have configured your notifications properly in the "Manage Notification Types" section of your AdminCP

Updated to 1.0.4:

Change Log:
- Fixed an issue that under certain conditions would cause an undefined notification to show up in the legacy display.
- Fixed an issue that caused the copyright to display incorrectly.
- Fixed an issue that would cause the CSS to fail to load on the CMS if the store css as files option wasn't turned on.
- Altered the settings page to show notifications that can be disabled rather than enabled. This should allow for automatic enabling of new notification types for all users globally.
- Fixed an issue that caused the legacy system total notification count to display incorrectly when permanent notifications are active.

Could you post a screenshot of your "Manage Notification Types" section of your AdminCP?

Initially I was very interested in this plugin, but its "lite" edition does not have enough functionality for me to install it, and I wont pay for something I have not been able to test.

How often does the system scan for new notification types, if ever?
