-Niantic have just released a minor update to the standard intel site. Good news - recent IITC changes have made it -successfully detect the protocol changes in most cases, so no update is needed. You may need to reload the page, -and for IITC Mobile you may need to change a cache setting. See -this G+ post for more details. -

-IITC 0.16.0 and IITC Mobile 0.10.0 have been released. This update is required to work with the latest changes to -the standard intel site. This update took a fair amount of work due to major changes -in the network protocol used behind the standard intel website, hence the longer than usual delay for the update. -

-

-As well as IITC itself, nearly every single plugin broke in some way due to these changes. Due to the amount of work -needed to get everything possible working again, some plugins have been disabled for now. You can see the list of these -disabled plugins in the download list - they're in the 'Deleted' category with a description of 'PLUGIN CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE'. -

-

-Shortly after the Niantic changes that broke IITC, there were reports of IITC users being banned. This seemed strange at -first, as IITC was not even functioning at this time, so why would people be using it and getting banned. The conclusion -that was reached was that a few people who tried to use the broken IITC Mobile app triggered either a bug in IITC that -caused excessive requests, or triggered some kind of alert in the intel servers. Changes have been made to IITC now -so this unlikely to be an issue again. -

-IITC and IITC Mobile are currently broken, due to changes made to the standard intel website. This is a major change in how -portal details are sent, with most of the extra data that the standard site didn't use being removed. -

-

-This is not something simple to fix, and will take some time. Also, it severely cripples what IITC can do, as using this -extra data, not displayed by the standard site, was its big feature. -

-

-We will look into what can be done to get it working again, but it will take some time. Many plugins won't be practical -as the data will not be available. -

-

-More details, and discussion, available in the -Google+ post. -

-

-Update I've created a 'dummy' version of the desktop plugin that will, for now, disable IITC if you leave it installed. -This is shown as version 0.15.99. When a fixed build is released, it will be 0.16.something and will update and start working. -Test versions remain, but broken. Please join the Google+ Community where announcements will be made. +Just in time for the holidays, another IITC update. IITC 0.16.1 and IITC Mobile 0.10.1 have just been released. +Changes include +
