That should still work. Might have to change the compatibility line to 1.8.x. I don't remember what It was left as last time It was updated.

I've tried that and couldn't manage to get it working. Probably an error on my end though..

Not sure about one that is for 1.8.7 but is it one of those plugins that has to be updated even for small releases?

Most recent one I can find that hasn't been updated in just over a year is this one.

Sorry if that is no help to you.

What error are you getting? When are you getting the error?

Tried that one as well but had no avail. I want to use the plugin Omni made but I'm not sure where to change the comparability of it.

You should have a pluginname.php (plugin name being whatever plugin you use.
Open that with a text editor it should look like this:

and then simply change compatiblity "16*" or whatever to 18*

Once you download the plugin, It will be located here: My Awards 2\inc\plugins\my_awards.php

Line 40 should show this:
Code
'compatibility'    => '16*',

Change It to:
Code
'compatibility'    => '18*',

That should work for you.

Do I have to do it to every myawards.php file or just the one in the plugins?

Thanks so much, appreciate it both of you.
