• Installation / Upgrading


    The Project Tools are quite simple to install or upgrade. The process is the same for each.

    1
    Download the latest version of the Project Tools from the Members’ Area. Be sure that you are running vBulletin 4.0 or newer!


    2
    Unzip the file to your hard drive locally.

    Warning:
    If you are upgrading, overwrite any files if prompted

    3
    Upload the contents of the upload/ directory within the zip on top of your existing vBulletin directory. This is the directory with forumdisplay.php and many other files in it.


    4
    Log into your vBulletin forum’s control panel. Go to
    Plugins & Products > Manage Products > Add/Import Product


    5
    In the Import the XML file from your server field, enter: ./includes/xml/product-vbprojecttools.xml



    Change Allow Overwrite to yes.


    6
    Click Import.

    If all went well, you should see a message saying your install or upgrade was successful! That’s it!

    Note:
    There are more detailed instructions on how to unzip and upload files in the Installing vBulletin section. These may be helpful.
    Note that there is no config.php configuration file in the Project Tools. You do not need to perform this step.
