I've fixed the error and attached the updated .xml product file.
Please edit/remove this post if this is against the rules.

All credit to OP. I've just updated it to be compatible with recent version of vblulletin. ( Simple fix )

I had to edit the image path in the xml file but aside from that it installed and runs fine on 4.0.8 (that's as far as I'm going - wish I'd stopped at 3.8 - but that's for another thread).

That definitely removes the error for me (on 4.1.0), but the page layout is still a little messy. I can probably work that out, but it'd be great if the next release addresses this alongside the other mentions:

- Display ban reason when user tries to enter thread;

Can section mod have the ability to do this?
