Yes, it will. Unzip the package, open the info.xml and add after the other versions, 1.1.3 at the action for install and uninstall

You can install it as any other mod through the package manager in the admin panel of your forum

The package you are trying to download or install is either corrupt or not compatible with this version of SMF. this the error i get know

Please don''t bump your posts in quick successions. Try this: Unzip the package, open the info.xml and add 1.1.3 after 1.1.2 at the actions for install and uninstall. Zip it back and install it again

tks it worked and sorry about floding the forum.

Glad to hear that worked out for you, but for future references, it is frowned upon here to bump your own posts and topics within 24 hours. The guys of the Support team are all volunteers and try to help us all in their free time, so let us make things as much easier as possible to them

Hrm, this does not work for me. I've been able to upload the standard version, but every time I try to modify the "package-info.xml" file, changing this:
<install for="1.1, 1.1.1, 1.1.2">
and this
<uninstall for="1.1, 1.1.1, 1.1.2">

to:

<install for="1.1, 1.1.1, 1.1.2, 1.1.3">
and this
<uninstall for="1.1, 1.1.1, 1.1.2, 1.1.3">

Save the .xml file, recompress everything with WinZip and then try to upload, I always get the "The package you tried to upload either is not a valid package or has become corrupted" Error.

I've tried to compress it with Stuffit on the Mac as well as the Mac's default "Archive" feature that comes with OS X. None of those methods gives me a file that SMF will accept.

Even if I just extract the zip file, make NO CHANGES, and recompress it, I get this error. Is there some method of zipping files that I'm not aware of that SMF requires?

(Using SMF 1.1.3)
(Yes, Packages and backups directories are at 777, in fact, everything in that whole Package Directory is now 777)

Other packages upload and install just fine.

I've tried to be sneaky, upload the old version via SMF but not install it, and then FTP up the new version and replace the ZIP file inside the Packages directory... but no luck. The package listing disappears when I do that.

Alright, I was able to get it installed and working by using the UNMODIFIED post, downloaded from the forums, but using this little trick I found from "H":
******************************************************
Lesson Four - Backporting the Package Manager

Did you know that even though a mod is technically incompatable, since you get the notice with your version of SMF that you can still install it?

Well, its true. You can fool the package manager into thinking that you have a different version.

Lets use my Gmail Field mod because I know it is not compatable with any version beyond 1.1 RC1.

When you've downloaded the mod to your local machine and uploaded it via your package manager, go back to the package manager (click the link in the side bar on the left) and then add

;version_emulate=1.1-RC1

This will make the package manager think that you're using SMF 1.1 RC1 rather than SMF 1.1.1.

But due to the Core theme being very different than the Babylon, I dont remcommend installing anything that isnt compatable with 1.1 RC2 or newer, unless you're happy to manually install anything that fails and check for bugs.

Remember that if you emulate to any version that has had a security patch released (1.1 RC2, 1.1 RC2-1, 1.1 RC3, 1.1) then you may get the notifications for them. But you can ignore those since if you're using 1.1.1 then they will already have them applied.

Obviously you'll need ;version_emulate=1.1.2

I'm also having the same problem... quoting or searching will reveal the hidden message. Too bad, 'cause I really need this mod... :(

Is there any plan to update this mod? Leaf hasn't been active for months now... Maybe someone can continue his work??

Any chance to update this for 1.1.4?

I've tried using the package-info.xml trick, didn't work, got the message saying it's not a valid package. I also tried the 1.1.2 emulation trick, but what's the use when it returns errors during installation testing, some files fail the test.

Is this true? That's very disappointing.  :( There's got to be some way to hide individual posts from guests, properly.

bigmohi

yeah, this mod is amazing, any chance of update to 1.1.4 ?
