Description

---

This modification will show the OS & Browser used by the user while posting. This information is gathered from the browser's user agent sent during posting time. It is not changed after editing the post.

You can choose in the Admin Control Panel which membergroups are allowed to view detected information.

There are many operating systems and browsers supported, but if you wish to add some new to the list, please use the modification support thread and leave your user agent.

Notes

---

Normally, you upload and install OS_Browser_Detection_vX.X.zip (for SMF 2.0 RC3 or SMF 1.1.x).

If you have SMF up to 2.0 RC1, please use version 1.4 of the mod, and if you have Advanced Reputation System installed, please use the file with the ARS extension (up to 2.0 RC1 only!).

Please be aware that if you wish to uninstall ARS later, you will have to uninstall OS & Browser Detection first (however, your database settings will be saved if you wish to reinstall it later).

Note that this mod will only show OS & Browser for posts created after installation. Before installing it, this information was never stored in the database.

If you are switching from K-Detection, refer to this post for instructions how to preserve and import existing data into OS & Browser detection.

Please post all your support questions and comments in the support thread. You can also use the Issue Tracker on the Demo Website.
