Hey all,
After a hugely successful Beta period, we're releasing vBActivity & Awards v3.1.0 Gold for vBulletin 4.x and vBulletin 3.8.x, available immediately to both Pro customers and Lite users. This release fixes a couple of outstanding bugs, as well as - similar to previous Betas - implement even more of the most popular features requested by you, our customers.
The main feature of this release is something sure to please larger forums: There is now a Command-Line Maintenance Script available that will let you run maintenance actions via a SSH/Telnet instance! This means if you're unable to run the maintenance actions from the web interface, you now have a solution. The script works identical to the way the search indexer in vBulletin works, presenting you with a menu and awaiting your input before performing the requested action.
Pro users get yet another contest type, complimenting the Raffle Tickets (Target) contest type added in Beta 2: Raffle Tickets (Thread Replies). This allows you to designate a thread as the "ticket thread", where each reply counts as one entry in the raffle. There's also an optional delay between each reply that counts as a raffle ticket, to prevent spammers from running rampant.
If you like the product you can show your support by nominating it for mod of the month here: vBActivity & Awards v3 (vB4) - vBulletin.org Forum or here vBActivity & Awards v3 (vB3) - vBulletin.org Forum, and also please rate it to help cancel out the users who 1 star our mods.
