Another member had a problem with my AboutToday mod because of Psionic Visions hack. He helped the other member make a modification to prevent the error.

Basically, he said:

Ok. Please tell him to place the following code before initializing the datamanager:

PHP Code:

if (file_exists(DIR . './includes/visionscripts/psionic_bsh/newthread_start.php'))
{
    require(DIR . './includes/visionscripts/psionic_bsh/newthread_start.php');
} 


I'd contact Psionic Vision to see if he can offer a hand.

Try importing the attached xml file. That may help ... or may not. I don't have his hacks so I can't really test it.

Works! Thanks a lot!
