[yj_enquirer]

Parse error: parse error, unexpected '<' in /home/XXXXX/public_html/forums/admincp/global.php(185) : eval()'d code on line 1

I get the above error....at the bottom of the global.php file the line that is included is :

($hook = vBulletinHook::fetch_hook('admin_global')) ? eval($hook) : false;

If I comment out this line, no issues, however the hack ofcourse is not seen as installed..

Any suggestions?

[akanevsky]

It looks like you have a bad plugin on the admin_global hook. I wouldn't say that it has anything to do with this hack.

Psionic, do you know how i can uninstall Anreas' plugin ? It does not show up on the plugin page and since it removes the product management I cannot import new products

[akanevsky]

1. Disable hooks by placing the following code in config.php.
2. Go to admincp and remove the plugin.
3. Remove the following code from config.php.

defined('DISABLE_HOOKS', true);

Upgrade info?

Upload/replace files only?

Does the new update (2.0.1) address the issues discussed in posts 22-28 here in this thread?

[akanevsky]

Yes, only replace the file, and no - the issues in those posts do not exist.
