Make 1.4 plugins work with 1.6
Hello, Have you noticed that quite a few big plugins that you realllly need don't work with MyBB 1.6? You go to upload them and activate them and what do you get?
Quote:This plugin is incompatible with MyBB 16**

Well here is the fix to that. While you should test and make sure the plugin works after modified by testing it out on a test forum, and take a backup first.

Open the ../inc/plugin file and locate

PHP Code:
        "compatibility" => "14*" 
(It basically says 'I am compatible with MyBB 1.4 only!')
and change it to
PHP Code:
        "compatibility" => "16*" 
(It basically says 'I am compatible with MyBB 1.6 only!')

If you need any help, feel free to post here.

You can also simply remove that line and it will work with all versions Tongue

nickman, please make all the mybb 1.4 plugins 1.6 compatible. changing the version number is not working with some plugins.
