Okay, I've already got the fixes in my code, but some things aren't working from a bit of cleaning up. I plan to get the code stable and updated tomorrow. HOWEVER... the missing file is up at the same location (link in 1st post)

You will have to click "Switch Users" to switch for now...

PS - Typing large and repeating yourself doesn't make people respond quicker... in fact, sometimes it makes them want to ignore you... (but I'll look into the 'submit-less' switching soon)

I still can not see the missing html file from the styles folder.

It wasn't to get the reply soon. it was to make a point which sometime people tend to ignore. because there are so many other requests that come to a specific topic.

I am sorry if you didn't like the boldness of the text in my previous post.

I hope its fine now. :D

Grr... I guess I missed the submit button. Try now... there's a second download that you need, not the full mod.

Thank you for continuing to support this indispensable mod. My users have again expressed that they want your babies. Well one of them has. I would but I'm physically incapable.

I'll update to your latest version and help test it soon.

Perfect, well ... so far :) I have to update the forum where the apostrophe's are used a lot but I wanted to mention just one minor typo in the ucp_linked_acct.html file.

Both instances of {L_NO_LINKED_ACCTS} Needs to be changed to {L_NO_LINKED_ACCOUNTS} or it shows up in the user cp management screen as {L_NO_LINKED_ACCTS} :)

And one other small typo was found while adding the module in the User CP via the System -> User Control Panel. It says Unink accounts instead of Unlink. Though, I couldn't locate where to change that in the files :)

Again, thank you!

Hi, I have a slight problem with mine. Not a massive thing, I've probably screwed up somewhere.
I don't have a single EDIT LINKED ACCOUNTS. I do have however, Link, Unlink and switch :s
Like when adding the module I see
LINKED ACCOUNTS MOD
Link Accounts
Unlink Accounts
Switch Accounts

So I've enabled them all for now. Don't know what I've messed up with though XD
Any ideas what I've messed up?

I don't think there is an edit linked accounts. I don't have that either and its working fine for me. If you click any of those links you do have, you can add, remove, and otherwise manage your linked accounts from there.

There's not... Install any one of them and you'll get them all...

I'm working on a fairly thorough re-write to fix a few things like that... and to add the admin / moderator features... As soon as I get the code stable again I'll re-release :-)

This MOD is excellent! I can't wait until the next release!

The only thing that kept me from using phpBB (or any other BB for that matter) was the inability to link accounts... and now I've got it. Three cheers!

I'm not sure if it would be possible, but it would be a nice feature, if that when you log into another account it keeps you on the same page; like it doesn't take you back to the index.

That's on my to do list... but I've been trying to figure out how to handle permissions... what if the new account doens't have permission to be where you are...? I think phpBB would give an error and redirect back to the index, tho...

Anyway... after I get it stable. At the moment, paying projects are in the way ;-)

Now, I know -this- request might be more complicated than the others, but if by chance it is doable it would be great to have: The read/unread topics to be the same across linked accounts.

Or as an alternative, have the dropdown on the posting screen and don't actually require a switch to the account.

Both probably pretty tough to code, but just throwing it out there, since I use this mod everyday ;)

Payment for this mod is possible, but I doubt I could provide enough incentive to override bigger projects.
