2. If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.
Also, before I installed, I wanted to make sure this was backwards compatiblae with my v3.6.5 and it indicates that is is compatible. But my usergroup settings does not look like yours!

The usergroup (6) admins was already selected when I went to settings. I read directions earlier in this thread that said to hold ctrl key to select more than one, so figured I'd be able to do that. Nope, can't do that at all.

It appears that usergroup support in vBulletin options was added after vbulletin 3.6.5. I know someone who has it working on a vbulletin v3.6.8 forum.

Thanks again

1. Create 'Custom' question
2. Use following PHP Code:
   
   PHP Code:

   $q[$formbit[id]] = vbdate("j/n/Y H:m:s", TIMENOW);
$answer = '<input type="text" readonly="readonly" id="q_' . $formbit[id] . '" name="' . $formbit[id] . '" value="' . $q[$formbit[id]] . '" />';

Do you have any modifications installed which affect the moderation of threads?

Oh poop. Well that explains my headache then! Thanks for responding. Either way, to use this wonderful modification, I still need to at least upgrade to 3.6.8. Of course, I am not comfortable trying to do that myself and will have to pay someone to do that for me. :erm:

No, i don't use moderation at all in any forums, but saying that my form is a user name change request form that posts a thread in to an admin only forum. But it was working before i upgraded.

Just tried rolling back to 3.1 and everything works fine.
