I found the following and was wondering if it is still required if using 2.4

http://www.ravenphpscripts.com/nukesentinelmanual-mainedit.html

Also of note, if so then shouldn't

Code:

<?php 


if ($forum_admin == 1) { 


   include("../../../includes/sentinel.php"); 


} elseif ($inside_mod == 1) { 


   include("../../includes/sentinel.php"); 


} else { 


   include("includes/sentinel.php"); 


}

read

Code:

<?php 


if ($forum_admin == 1) { 


   include("../../../includes/sentinel.php"); 


} elseif ($inside_mod == 1) { 


   include("../../includes/sentinel.php"); 


} else { 


   include("includes/nukesentinel.php"); 


}

I tried adding this line, and eventually found the error and fixed it, but is it necessary, and what does it do?

v/r

Actually, they should all read nukesentinel, instead of sentinel. And logic in later patch versions uses a different approach that defines an include variable that precedes nukesentinel and eliminates the if statements. Look at the installation instructions for a recent NukeSentinel version for more details.
