Lost access to $bbuserinfo in plugins after upgrade

[webscience]

After upgrading from 3.8.9 to 3.8.11 my plugin which runs on the showthread_complete hook, cannot function because it appears that the $bbuserinfo variable now contains nothing.

Has there been a change or is there some new way for plugins to access $bbuserinfo from within a plugin? If not, it must be something else...

EDIT: This has been resolved by switching to:

is_member_of($vbulletin->userinfo

PHP 5.6.X has changed how some variables can be accessed. We've updated vBulletin but as you have found out, your add-ons may need further adjustments.
