Hello all,
I threw together a quick plugin last night to resolve a number of issues with "Authorization Mismatch Error" codes (or user login issues) on older MyBB themes. This is single-handedly one of the most popular problems MyBB users have when installing older themes, and previously, the only fix was to manually edit templates. This plugin will take care of these fixes automatically and should save administrators some time when installing older themes!
To run the patches, simply upload the plugin, activate, and you're done. The readme has information on how to patch additional themes after the patcher has been run initially.
IMPORTANT: This is a best-faith effort to patch as many old themes as possible. It cannot be guaranteed to work on every single theme. Please make a database backup before use! This is pre-release and is currently in testing, full release is coming soon.
