    Yes you will notice they use different type of default.master template.

    the one with .tpl uses a template language called Smarty. In order to put raw JavaScript you need to put the code within

    {literal} 
    code goes here
    {/literal}
    

    That way it won't try to parse it as Smarty, because both Smarty and JavaScript use curly brackets.

    grep is your friend.

    You should rethinking using that version of Vanilla. Please take a look here: http://vanillaforums.org/discussion/comment/192085/#Comment_192085
    I've read that you are just a beginner and so you might prefer V2.0.18.10 or at least V2.1b2 but it would be better for your users that you stay away from V2.2

    @RPBWEBKING R_J is absolutely right.

    The beta version is 2.1 and anything else that can't be downloaded here is alpha which means it is not safe to be used in in production. I wouldn't even use it, or with any of my clients.

    Even the beta may have have issues, the whole point of beta is if you use the beta you have responsibility to do the beta testing. I don't even use the beta with my clients. If the core team where happy to release it full they would have already, it is still pending.

    Alpha is never used for any application where you would have actual users. Alpha is really for for the core contributors.

    People get impatient, but they don't really understand software testing or what it is they are downloading.

    I can't support you though beta testing, either, that is your responsibility to learn what to do, how to report issues. Explained here

    @x00 thanks but my forum is running and got users now i don't want to change it again because if i change, I will lost my active users. If i upload the original one then , they will think that i am fake because this is second time i changed forum. This is because i give my user pay per post and if this happened they will leave my forum....

    I doubt they would even notice. You are not creating a fresh install, you are simply going through the standard upgrade procedure.

    Like I say alpha software in not production ready, so if there is any vulnerability you users will be at risk, and it is often incomplete.

    I mean you will be upgrading your software in the future so I don't see how this is any different.

    We give advice you don't have to take, it, but you do not take it, we can only say we told you so if you have problems.

    I may not provide the completed solution you might desire, but I do try to provide honest suggestions to help you solve your issue.

    well technically
    2.0.18.10
    is the most stable version.

    However if you are willing to be a beta tester you can get most of the feature you have now with
    2.1b2

    Advice if you find a bug, try an replicate that bug with a fresh install without any addons, and with the default theme. You wan to eliminate the other reasons.

    check back regularly for security updates, you may have to apply patches manually.

    @x00 thanks so much and @peregrine i will definetly donate you some money when i earn them. By the way , you all are genious developers , So i have a question. In future i am going to create a Pay To Click (PTC)site , so i want to know that you will make the full custom PTC script for me. I will give you money. But not now , it will most probably after 1 year and 6+ months because till then i will get my own credit card....
