138 mods tested on 139

[DivaVocals]

right... to clarify this and to give my final input on the matter as Ms Diva keeps mentioning it.

i have had a look via winmerge of the Login Spruce Up Mod and admin/login.php and then looked at the difference of login.php from 138a and 139a.

This mod is not easily changeable to be 139a compatible. In fact (to me) there is a considerable difference between 198a and the 139a login.php file... The changes are so significant that it could deserve its own relisting as a new mod or at least have a new version number.

Now while Diva and others will disagree, I'm going to take a leaf out of Kim's book and reply with “i dont care”. Because from the out set this thread was created to help noobs.... and to document the findings of myself and other that have attempted to install mods on 139... for the benefit of noobs...

Diva, you say this should be listed as working but requiring winmerging but your statements are based on theorising and not on practical efforts.

So I will not be moving this mod into a different category. Feel free to continue to chirp on about the subject, but I am not moving it and wont be giving my input on it anymore.

My comments are not based on simple THEORIZING.. I looked at the code and posted DETAILS of my findings.. (which includes EXACT lines in the code where the ACTUAL changes take place..)

The DIFFERENCES between the 1.3.8a and 1.3.9a code of the login.php file are NOT the relevant code changes for Login Spruce Up.. Login Spruce Up is a COSMETIC add-on which changes the LOOK of the login.php file. The in this file differences between 1.3.8a and 1.3.9a are do not affect the LOOK of the login page. The sections of the login.php page which ARE affected by the Login Spruce Up module and the changes which need to be made are detailed in the Login Spruce Up support thread.

now you are free to NOT move this to the correct place in this list.. That's fine.. continue to post your updates and, I will continue to post/chirp about my findings.. You are free to ignore them and state (incorrectly) that the Login Spruce Up doesn't work with 1.3.9a.. and I will continue to post instructions for those who are willing to TRY and help themselves can get it to work..
