Thanks for the update. I use the old version, can you give more info on "FIXED: DB error with merging posts" because I don't think I ever ran into it- was this just for posts made by the mod or all posts on the board?
Just wondering if its necessary to upgrade sooner than later...

This DB error can occur if you have enabled option "Merge many RSS items to one post".
So if you have not emails with this error - you don't need to upgrade. No members have liked this post.

Thanks.
![]() Will probably save this upgrade then until I upgrade vBulletin since I'll have to redo the file edits anyway.

Stopped working after the upgrade to vbulletin 4.1.4, even after I re-did all of the file edits, and reinstalled.

Usually when a mod requires file edits it's not that the coder didn't do a good job, it's that the software wasn't written with any "hooks" in the necessary places- it's physically impossible to not make file edits sometimes.

Yes, it's not working even with the file edits, hopefully it will be updated, as the file edits are not dificult at all, but as it is, it isn't working anymore.
