Life has reared its ugly head. I won't bore you with the details, but suffice to say my laptop took a dump and my backup solution partially failed the ultimate test. I should've kept you up guys up to date and I apologize for that. I assure everyone that once this app is released I will keep up on communication and support requests. I am releasing this app publicly in that I'm endorsing it on my personal website. I do this stuff for a living, to support my family; I'm not about to damage my reputation. Also, for those of you that remember the Links System and IP.Links days on 3.0 and 3.1 know how much I'm dedicated to the app. Once it's out there, I won't fail you :-). As for an update: I'm working on it as we speak! The front end is nearly complete. I still plan on releasing a lightweight version to get you guys going and then following up with a further release approximately two weeks later containing the remaining features and finalizing integration with the new toys in 3.2. I will then begin working on new features as requested. Note again that once paid for you don't have to pay for new updates. Please bear with me. We are in the home stretch! Sorry all.

Hello Brandon,

3 weeks ago you mentioned a couple of weeks… can you make a more precise estimation now?

Any word on when it will be available? or is someone else taking it over. This is sorely missed on our site. Any word on when it will be available? or is someone else taking it over.

Let me know when the update is available so I can upgrade my links directory. Keith it is NOT a quick fix for everything and like Brandon stated I cannot tell you the full path to there as YOU have to figure out where the files are. Sorry.

I recommend waiting until the full update is available to ensure everything is ported over correctly and supported. It won't be too much longer, I am back from vacation.

That is wrong word that I speak and I meant a dead field that IPB 3.2 removed in members table. Again sorry for what I said to comment out a table.
