I am going to keep trying , when time allows....but for now, 2 problems occurred...
1....I somehow managed to get 2 of the Rules Mod Packages in my Packages Listing....(Usually it says something like, You Dummy, You already downloaded it)
2. A Mod Settings error....
It seems to me that you've got a problem with SMF and the package installer. The mod author has no control over how this process works, and as far as I know the mod package is designed properly as far as the modification script and package-info are concerned.
I don't know how many mods you have installed so this could be a biatch but in my test forum I would uninstall all the packages, then delete the mod list, and then I would delete and replace or copy over all the PHP scripts any of the mods touched, then reinstall any desired mods.
I don't know of any other way to resolve a muck-up when a package is inadvertently installed twice, partially installed, partially removed, etc.
Another question. Would this be a great mod to made into a universal type mod.....where you could name the button whatever you wish, and then add the pages to correspond to it?
For example....Download the now "Universal Mod", Name the button FiFi, then add FiFi pages to it?
Well actually at the beginning of coding I had considered adding 10 custom pages to make it an even dozen, but then I thought that was overkill, decided that very few people would use even the one additional page. I decided that adding the configuration code for that would make the configuration page about 4 feet tall (1.3 meters to you international folks!
) and I thought that would make the configuration page look really ugly. Then I noticed other configuration areas of SMF where you can click links to expand blocks that configure additional features, and that looked like a good solution. However, I wanted to release the modification so that people could begin using it, and every software developer knows that at some point you have to quit bloating the features and ship it!
I'll consider adding additional "additional" pages at a future date depending on demand.
As far as the universal mod, IIRC there is one like that for SMF 1.1.5 although maybe it's just adding buttons and actions but no provision for adding pages. I'll entertain the idea of making a new, different mod that does that depending on if there is any demand. Feedback on this would be helpful as I have many other mods that are also in the idea stages and a few further along than that, so I have to budget where I put my time.
Feedback on universal mod? Note that this would be a separate mod.
