[Forum] $vbulletin no longer global in the post_display_complete hook?

[Boofo]

Did something change in 4.0.4 that made $vbulletin no longer a global variable in the post_display_complete hook? I had to add it above a mod I have in that hook before it would recognize $vbulletin->options. It worked fine without it in 4.0.3.

Am I the only one who noticed this?

Then use $this->registry->options[..] ...

global $vbulletin is imho unnecessary at the most part of the methods but it'sstill used (also from the vB developers..)

That was not my point. My point was that it worked fine in 4.0.3 and they changed/screwed up something in 4.0.4 to make it stop working. Breaking mods is not a good way to go.

They are just showing disrespect to developers. It's ok, guys, continue making changes without any notifications for developers. We still love you all, don't we?

If they keep adding 2 bugs for every one they fix, the love will be waning very quickly I'm afraid.

should they leave all the legacy code because of some mods??
c'mon then vB will never be refactored...

as i wrote before, they should deliver a nice list of changes (changehistory) then the 3rd party developers could fix there add-ons fast

Well, they need to make it backward compatible until such time they decide to let us know what they are changing so we can keep up with it somehow. If this is what their refactoring is going to be like, God help us all.
