Either use $_REQUEST['config'] (for a boolean check) or request_var('config', '') (for using the input value). [] are for arrays, () are for methods/functions.
Don't forget to smile today. :)

Found a fix to a (hopefully) final issue. Will test an install then release it (when github is back up).

The Long Awaited Edition

The long awaited bug fix release is finally here. You can see a change log below.
You may download it here

I would just like to thanks Erik who has fixed a few bugs for me and fixed my repeated nubness.

Changelog (Not complete, only lists some major and a few minor fixes):
  • Remove core edits by using hooks - Thanks to Erik
  • Adding PHP Installer to MODX
  • Updating Authors
  • Use request var
  • Fixing phrasing issue
  • Stopping hooks breaking UMIL
  • Fixing Nubness
  • Fixing updating issue - Thanks to Erik
  • Changing from request_var to $_REQUEST in ACP PHP File so it would work
  • Added center tags to copyright
  • Fixing issues with Overall_Blog_Title outputing 1
  • Adjusting width of main body and sidebar.
  • Updating version
  • Fixing copy and paste errors of Davids
Thanks for being so patient for this release and its good to know this MOD is going strong considering the last version had over 100 downloads while still in development. So thanks to everyone testing and using it.

NOTE: Although there are alot of bug fixes this is still very buggy and not recommended for a live environment.

Secondary Note: I did notice that I forgot to update the version and history in the main install.xml file. Just ignore it.

To update simply delete all your old files and overwrite them with these ones.

A few features I would like to see pal:

does it list the amount of blog posts in a persons mini profile in viewtopic and also on the member list

does it display the total blogs and comments on the page ?

A few features i would love it to have:

is for a bot to post in a topic when a blog post has been approved
and also will want to be able to display the latest blog on the portal page like the current one does.

1) Sounds good I'll look into this.

2) There will be stats added to the bottom of the index page with total number of articles and total number of comment with a toggle.

3) posting to forum by bot is already added

4) It has RSS feed built in and im sure this would work with some custom code which i may offer additionally.

Excellant as the current one is a main part of my home page so if i was to swap it would need to be there even if it was an optional add on

You can clone the repository from GitHub and use that code. That said you really don't want to use Alpha software in a live environment ;).
