/*======================================================================*\
||  1. Changed Options		                                        ||
\*======================================================================*/

Most vBulletin Options have moved to the Instance Management, allowing 
for per-instance configuration of those options.


/*======================================================================*\
||  2. Custom Shoutbox Locations                                        ||
\*======================================================================*/

The method for displaying the Shoutbox in custom locations have been
improved upon, and as such the old display method is no longer valid.

If you enter the Instance Manager you'll see that there's a "varname" 
display there.

The new syntax for displaying the shoutbox instance is: 
{$show[vbshout_VARNAME]}
where VARNAME is the varname you found in the Instance Manager.

For instance, if the "varname" is "instance1" then the code to place
in your template of choice is:
{$show[vbshout_instance1]}


/*======================================================================*\
||  3. Changed Files		                                        ||
\*======================================================================*/

The directory structure changed to bring it more in line with other
DragonByte Tech products. For the most part, you can leave the old
files alone.

However, if you experience weird AdminCP navigation menu issues,
please delete the following files from your /includes/xml/ folder:

* bitfield_vbshout.xml
* bitfield_vbshout_pro.xml
* cpnav_vbshout.xml
* cpnav_vbshout_pro.xml
* hooks_vbshout.xml
* hooks_vbshout_pro.xml


The new files are named:

* bitfield_dbtech_vbshout.xml
* bitfield_dbtech_vbshout_pro.xml
* cpnav_dbtech_vbshout.xml
* cpnav_dbtech_vbshout_pro.xml
* hooks_dbtech_vbshout.xml
* hooks_dbtech_vbshout_pro.xml

If you receive any errors that look like this:

Fatal error: Using $this when not in object context in /dbtech/usertag/hooks/dbtech_vbshout_shoutbox_start.php on line 3

Please visit ForumScriptz.org to get the latest version of Advanced User Tagging mod.  Even if you have version 2.0.0 installed.

A hotfix was applied to correct this error.
