    vBulletin News in Admin CP

    I run a few vBulletin sites and i've noticed that now all are on 3.6.1, only one of my sites shows news from vBulletin in my admin cp, the others do not show anything.

    Has something not be altered properly?

          I just realised, the two sites were upgraded to 3.6.1 before i got the e-mail regarding the upgrade and I get no news.

          New sites were installed after the e-mail and get news.

          I've just upgraded a site today and it's working no problem with the news.

              i get news on my test system ok, i can't see any news on our live system.
              interestingly one of our other admins, logging on as admin as well can see the news.

                I upgraded my live forum from 3.6.0 to 3.6.1 and saw no news. So I did a clean test install of 3.6.1 and still see no news.

                I did download the vB files before the notification email - do you think they were changed?

                What's going on?

                  OK, so I just did a fresh download and a fresh install to a test folder. Still no news. So now I'm thinking it's maybe something in the hosting environment that is causing this.

                  Any thoughts?

                        The RSS feeds are fine, just the news from vb that shows up in admincp.

                        There's a modification named, "Opt-Out Forums from Get New Posts" on www.vbulletin.org which works well to stop forums from showing on get new posts.

                            Yep! I can now see the news panel after the 3.6.2 upgrade - obviously, there was a problem.
