UBB.Developers Forums UBB.classic V6.4 - 6.7 Modifications V6 Mod Ideas Total Posts / Topics on main page

Gentlemen,

I always have used this hack for a simple total of all topics / posts. With updates I have modified it slightly and it has always worked. But now with 6.3 it does not display or do anything.

Everything matches.

Any idea's?

Here is the mod..
