* For security issues - vbulletin.org will contact all members who have installed a modification whenever a security issue is brought to their attention.

It's all easily done from your vBulletin AdminCP:

1. Download the product XML file from the first post in this thread and save it somewhere where you can easily find it on your home computer: product-ozzy_extra_mod_options_ma.xml

2. Go to AdminCP >> Plugins & Products >> Product Manager (left hand menu)

3. Scroll down to the bottom of the list of installed products and click on [Add/Import Product] (right hand AdminCP panel)

3. On the next Import Product screen, next to where is says, "EITHER upload the XML file from your computer", click on Browse and browse to where you saved the XML file from Step 1. Click on the XML filename.

4. Since this is your first time installing this product, leave Allow Overwrite set to No.

5. At the bottom of the top box for that screen, click on the Import button.

And that's it... product installed.

Then go to AdminCP >> Settings >> Options and find in the right panel OzzModz: Extra Mod Options Settings. Click on that and select the settings you want for this mod/add-on... most of them you can probably leave as the defaults.

Thanks very much! Followed your instructions and I managed to get everything installed perfectly. The only thing is that I had no choice but to set Allow Overwrite to YES or I would get an error to check my Internet connection. As soon as I set that option to YES, it installed without a hitch and it works perfectly.

I moderated a board for quite a few years and I wish we had such options so easily available from the dropdown menu. Excellent hack!:up:

Glad djbaxter was able to get you going, and thanks for marking as installed.

[ozzy47]

Edit the settings for the mod, and enter your renamed folders.

The label/phrase could be something like "Add/Edit usernotes".

Bumping to remind you.

You must have the reputation system off.

ACP --> Settings --> Options --> User Reputation Options, set the setting Enable User Reputation system to Yes

[edgeless]

Yes, I just realized that fact and I deleted my post here before refreshing to see that you had already replied (bad me - sorry). Now when I click the edit reputation link with the reputation system enabled, it gives me a "no record" message. Thanks much for the reply.

[ozzy47]

Correct, no record means there were no comments added.
