Support
[hr]-[/hr]I use my released mods daily, if I find an issue with them or add features for myself I will release updates. If there are significant bugs or simple feature requests I will do my best to release fixes. Some of my mods rely on fetching data from 3rd party websites, due to the unreliable results, my mods will require users to troubleshoot for themselves if they find the addon is not working for them specifically. I am offering my personal mods that work ok for me for you to use, I am sorry I do not have time to troubleshoot many user specific issues. Thank you for your understanding.

today is your lucky Day...


first ) go to your Admincp >Plugins & Products > Plugin Manager

there is 2 things you need to do..


first we are going to create a new plug in...

this will fix the postbit link so mouse over will display the gamercard

gXBL: Show_Post               gXboxLive

Hook                          showthread_start

Title                         gXBL: Show_Post


Execution Order               5


Plugin PHP Code                $templater = vB_Template::create('gxbl_headinclude');
                               $headinclude .= $templater->render();    


Plugin is Active               yes
Save

second

this will allow the gamercard to render on mouse over the users name

and we are still in plug in manager

find and open up
gXBL: Forum Home Stats

Next

click edit
replace the Plugin PHP Code with

if(!defined('GXBL_FUNC'))
	include "./includes/functions_gxboxlive.php";
if(function_exists('gxbl_has_access') && gxbl_has_access() && $vbulletin->options['gxbl_show_stats'] && $vbulletin->options['gxbl_forumhome'])
{
	$templater = vB_Template::create('gxbl_headinclude');
$headinclude .= $templater->render();
	($hook = vBulletinHook::fetch_hook('gxbl_stats')) ? eval($hook) : false;
	$template_hook['forumhome_below_forums'] .= $gxblstats;
}

Enjoy Guys...
