Well we only allow the original author of the plugin to submit a plugin to the mods site here but outside of this site you can't really control what people do what your code if it's within GPL.
Unless I misunderstood, I think querschlaeger was saying that if someone updated one of his mods, he wouldn't wan't his name on it?
No, he said, that the modified plugin should have an other name.

Yepp, this is what I meant.

It could be confusing if there exist a modified version of a plugin (maybe with a higher version number?) with the same name. Also I don't believe that the original plugin authors will give support for modified plugin versions...

So I think forks with another name and a new beginning version number are a better idea.
Well... now, its more important xdd

No it doesn't past the "Default" theme. If I use another 1.6 theme it doesn't work.

I activated it and it doesn't work. Can I get some help on that?

No it doesn't. The ACP tells me to upgrade.

Check {$ps_header_index} and {$ps_footer_index} appear in your index template.

I'm guessing most will work with 1.6, I've only found one plugin out of the 34 I have installed that hasn't been updated or works anyway. Smile
