Revised for phpBB 2.0.0. This mod will allow the registered members of your board to select their country flag to be displayed in their profile, posting info, and members listing. Originally written by John Abela for 1.x, I have revived it for 2.0. Many users enjoy using this mod to show their national pride. Others find it interesting to see at a glance how diverse a board can be.
Download the files here until they are available from the phpBB mods database: download
If you previously installed 2.0.4, download the upgrade script
NOTE: The install instructions format will be slightly different from what you have seen in the past. Although I don't think folks will have a hard time understanding them, let me know if you have problems. This is the first mod to be compliant with my new automatic mod installer. However the installer is still in alpha development and not released.

## UPGRADING FROM 1.X and 2.0 RC versions:
## If you had flaghack installed on phpBB 1.x then and
## then upgraded to 2.0, then you are in luck! You
## will need to rename some table field names, but all
## your data from 1.x should still be there and the
## new flaghack will use it! Just skip the flag.sql
## step and follow the rest of the install directions.
##
##
## UPGRADING FROM 2.0.4:
## If you installed the previous version, you should
## ignore ALL of the directions here and instead use
## the upgrade-Flags-2.0.5.txt to more simply upgrade
## what you already have.
##
##
## NEW INSTALLATION:
## Upload the /flag/ images to your server. Place
## them in a "flags" folder in the images folder. You
## should also have an "avatars" and "smilies" folders
## there.
##
## To execute the flag.sql file for MySQL, you can
## either have phpMyAdmin run it, or exexute the UNIX
## command line.
