This release contains a few more enhancements and a bug fix, but my main intent in this article is to focus on SMF Package Manager issues, in the hope that I will have fewer non-Treasury issues to deal with.<br />
<br />
The Treasury mod complies with SMF mod requirements, yet many people still have widely varied problems with install/uninstall:<br />
<ul>
<li>mostly from people's failure to heed the install/uninstall warnings - the warnings are real and if ignored, will invariably lead to some problem with your site.</li>
</ul>
<div style="margin-left: 40px;">The SMF forums are littered with unnecessary topics resulting from failure to heed the Package Manager.<br />
</div>
<ul>
<li>sometimes side-effects from other mods which install incorrectly and destroy important SMF reference points</li>
<li>windows servers (not much I can do to help there) <img alt="" src="/FCKeditor/editor/images/smiley/msn/sad_smile.gif" /><br />
</li>
<li>hopefully none caused by Treasury</li>
</ul>
Consequently, even though beyond the scope required of a mod, I provide the following:<br />
<ul>
<li>detailed un-install notes when you go to uninstall, also provided in the ReadMe file (or the <a href="index.php?page=8" style="font-weight: bold;">Treasury Guide</a>).<br />
</li>
<li>the Dansoft <a href="PackageParser/index.php" style="font-weight: bold;">Package Parser</a> so that people can assess what is required for a manual install or un-install in the event that you are unfortunate enough to run into trouble.<br />
</li>
</ul>
Please click <span style="font-weight: bold;">Read More</span> to view the features of this release.

With the advent of Treasury 2.05, the TinyPortal version has been withdrawn.<br />
<br />
Instead, TP users should simply install the SMF version and then follow the "<a href="http://resourcez.biz/index.php?topic=92.0">Extra Info for TinyPortal Installations</a>" topic.<br />
<br />
v2.05 handles PayPal IPN much better and is back to working in harmony with the Subscriptions mod. It will also handle refunds/reversals automatically. There are 2 key changes - IPN Auto Return must be set to <strong>On</strong> and the <strong>URL for return to site</strong> address has been changed - this should be changed by the install script but check in your Admin <strong>PayPal Config</strong> tab to ensure that it matches the indicated default value and change there if needed.<br />
<br />
It is also the approved version of the mod.<br />
<br />
There is also an SMF2 Beta version but it is only available through the SMF Charter Member forums, for now.<br />
<br />
The <a href="http://resourcez.biz/index.php?page=8"><b>Treasury Guideline</b></a> provides a guide to the mod Read Me section.

I have released, and will now maintain, separate versions of Treasury.<br />
<br />
The "1" series (currently 1.25) will be for SMF/TP and the "2" series (currently 2.00) will be for SMF Standalone.<br />
<br />
I have also improved the un-installer so that it now removes all files installed. It still doesn't remove the original database tables, thus retaining your data during upgrades.<br />
<br />
Due to the thorough pita that upgrading SMF is, I have also resorted to maintaining vanilla installs of SMF and TP so that I can more readily test upgrades directly on this site. It's nice to have 30+ mods but geez, what an arduous upgrade process it evokes.
