How to Install

  • Go to ACP > applications and upload the downloaded tar file.

Hi,

I cannot reproduce the issue.
I tested with IPB v4.5.2 and installed my plugins using the marketplace search in the ACP.

 

Which version of IPB are you using? Are you installing the latest versions of the plugins (1.1.1 and 1.0.7)
Is there a more detailed error shown in one of the ACP log pages?

If you send me a PM with a test account for your forum I can have a look myself to see what is going wrong.

I'm running the latest for everything.

The error in system log is the same:

4C133/6	We could not parse the application.json file for this application because it is missing or corrupt. Please contact the author for an updated copy of this application.

I can toss you a pm.

Does threadstarter games mod use lazy load? I mean for widgets.

Google page speed score gives me hard time when the widget is full of full-size images from giantbomb.com its essential to generate thumbnails and also take advantage of lazyload (if it doesnt yet, I dont know how to check if it does).

Same goes for THREADSTARTER MUSIC.

Is this still being supported? 

I have a little request for all of your thread starter. Where it say to "Attach game" in the input box is to make it as an reqirement 🙂 So many members ar eposting topics and forgetting to type in the inbox of the game.. Thanks

I think the dude is gone. I contacted him a couple of weeks ago too but not a single response from him.

Really, another developer gone 😞 All the plugins that I use just like no more support and updates. Even the "Clubs Enhancements" is no longer. makes running an IPB that little harder.
